    Meanwhile I'm still reading my book and getting ready for the day that the government will end its reign of terror on us all....Click Here...

    Oh Chrome is Becoming a Thing? Bitch Please. Tell that to all the IE users. Here's a thing: THING

  3. Re:Brains drained before career decisions made on CS Prof Decries America's 'Internal Brain Drain' · · Score: 1

    If you really think Americans don't work hard, you're pretty out of touch with reality there. We are working more than ever before for less money. Maybe you personally don't work hard but everywhere I go I see people working hard. They don't even just hire you for 40 hours anymore, if you don't want to work more than 40 hours they don't even consider you.

  4. Re:Just cos he does it - doesnt make it right on Why I Steal Movies (Even Ones I'm In) · · Score: 1

    If you know you are going to get away with a crime it doesn't make it right. How does it feel to be a criminal?

  5. Re:Why?? on Why I Steal Movies (Even Ones I'm In) · · Score: 2

    Try Netflix. It's legal. Everyone can have tons of reasons they break the law. It doesn't make it okay though. Just because you don't get caught doesn't mean you won't ever get caught.

  6. Re:It is university.... on Politically Correct Zoology · · Score: 1

    Your sexist post isn't funny. How about pointing out that a male co-worker is incompetent? You think you wouldn't get fired for that too, you moron?

  7. Re:It is university.... on Politically Correct Zoology · · Score: 1

    Not funny. How about posting something relevant.

  8. Re:Dumping a second poison to hide the first on Giant Plumes of Oil Forming Below the Gulf's Surface · · Score: 1

    You know what. I don't think even this will wake people up. The Tea Bagger types are seriously dumb as bricks.

  9. Re:they better stop it pretty damn soon on Giant Plumes of Oil Forming Below the Gulf's Surface · · Score: 1

    All this to make a few extra dollars over at BP.

  10. Re:Free Market Man is here! on Giant Plumes of Oil Forming Below the Gulf's Surface · · Score: 1

    What difference is that going to make? They already destroyed the entire Gulf of Mexico?!

  11. Re:Why stop online? on Calif. Politican Thinks Blurred Online Maps Would Deter Terrorists · · Score: 2, Informative

    Yeah and ban the yellow pages because they have maps and addresses. It's just a manual for terrorists! Plus then they can call with annoying phone messages, so it's even worse than Google Earth.

  12. Re:What a stupid anti-fat drug this can become on Cell Metabolism Artificially Enhanced · · Score: 1

    If they fed people like they feed dogs and cats it would be a lot harder to get fat. Two bowls of dry food a day and water.

  13. Re:Really? on Understanding How CAPTCHA Is Broken · · Score: 1

    I don't get my formmail spammed when I put it under an https address. Why would that be?

  14. Re:Holy crap! on Researchers Discover Gene That Blocks HIV · · Score: 1

    I doubt any US drug company ever wants a cure or a vaccination for HIV or anything else for that matter.

  15. Re:a waste of the tech on Researchers Discover Gene That Blocks HIV · · Score: 1

    Uhm....I think you have it backwards. Human efforts should be for the greater good of the human race. Not for unneeded excesses. Your selfishness is disgusting.

  16. Re:Not Faster on Strict Order Boarding Would Get Planes in the Sky Faster · · Score: 1

    If they didn't allow carry on bags it would be monumentally faster. Everyone always seems to have to put the bag in, arrange it just so, then take it out and do it over again because they forgot to take something out of it. This blocks everyone boarding the plane no matter who is boarding to what seat. If you are sitting next to them you can't sit down. If you are sitting behind them you can't sit down because the person sitting next to them is blocking your isle. Sounds like the author made an easy problem a lot more difficult than it had to be. He should get a job with one of the airlines.

    All they have to do is not let people put things in the overhead bins. Maybe they could fill the overhead bins with parachutes in case the plane crashes.

  17. Re:United Police State of America on Examining the Search and Seizure of Electronics at Airports · · Score: 1

    Yeah and they obviously don't know how to use the power. Last time I was at an airport I had to explain to a security person 3 times why me and my daughter had different names. She couldn't seem to figure out that we were different people and then when she did then she couldn't figure out what our names were even though our names were on our ID's. It's a big joke. They shake down people they know don't have bombs and let the bombers through because it would be racist not to. God knows my 80+ year old Grandma could've been a terrorist when they frisked her. What a joke those security people are.

  18. Re:I feel bad saying it on A Smart Pillbox To Improve Medication Compliance · · Score: 1

    Yeah it's kinda difficult when you are in agony to remember "hey did i take my pill 4 hours ago or was it 2 hours ago?" Maybe the death of Heath Ledger is making some of the pharmaceutical companies wake up and smell the rotting corpses. God knows they have enough damn money to do something simple like this for their patients. It's about damn time some moron came up with something to help people with this f******* crap!

  20. Re:You don't need a graphic designer... on Web Graphic Design for Small Businesses · · Score: 1

    Yeah get a graphic designer. Make one logo. Use that on every page. Just like Google does. People always tell me they want all this flash and programming and blah blah blah....but look who's really making money? Google. They don't use tons of flash or splash pages or all that nonsense.

  21. Re:Engineering Education on Olin College — Re-Engineering Engineering · · Score: 1

    Yeah and they paid a lot of money for that education too. Colleges want people to know more and more filling everyone's head with lots of useless knowledge but what about the necessary knowledge? Do they do that?

    Nowhere in the original post did it say white anglo saxon males. They said Americans. As in American citizens...duh.

  23. Re:Obvious on Why are Websites Still Forcing People to Use IE? · · Score: 1

    Most of the people visiting a website are visiting using IE (like 90% or more). So...wouldn't it make sense that most webmasters would program for IE? Duh.... Also clients use IE...they don't like it when it doesn't work in IE.

  24. Re:How? on Do You Allow Webmail Use on Your Network? · · Score: 1

    The next step, to ramp up your security, is to remove all computers from the workers desks. This method has been tested by me, and I find a 100% reduction in spam in email.

    Isn't Mashup more of a caribbean type slang? Or you wouldn't know that since you've never left the states.
