  1. Demystification on 'Mein Kampf' To Be Republished In Germany · · Score: 3, Insightful

    They should have started demystifying it 67 years ago.....

  2. Re:Seen this trick before on Magician Suing For Copyright Over Magic Trick · · Score: 1

    Ah, nicely done, english language. Tricked me into turning a trick into a missunderstanding ;-).

  3. Seen this trick before on Magician Suing For Copyright Over Magic Trick · · Score: 4, Funny

    Just some bogus claim, lawyer behind a smoke screen and some copyright waving in a trick to confuse a judge..... Larry Ellison does this routine a hundred times the size before breakfast ;-).

  4. What are the expectations on Ask Slashdot: At What Point Has a Kickstarter Project Failed? · · Score: 1

    I have backed a half dozen projects so far. Even if none returns with a result, i will not be angry. I spent the money on an idea, not a product.

    The only disturbing info was about the beaches. If they didn't even try, i would go from kickstart to kickass ;-)-

  5. Re:Will it start a renaissance? on Will Kickstarter Launch a Gaming Renaissance? · · Score: 1

    Vigrior is having a hard time too. But i press my thumbs and try to do a bit of PR for them :-).

  6. Will it start a renaissance? on Will Kickstarter Launch a Gaming Renaissance? · · Score: 2

    I surely hope so..... at least i backed 4 projects in two weeks :-)

    P.S. I recommend a look here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mercenary-games/vigrior-maneuver-warfare

  7. Better phrasing on Should Failure Be Rewarded To Spur Innovation? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    What they don't do is "rewarding failure". They hand out incentives for trying. Subtle differences between those two....

  8. I prefer a strip search any time ..... on Supreme Court Approves Strip Searches For Any Arrestable Offense · · Score: 1

    I prefer a strip search any time if the the other choice is grantÃng them access to my PC. The strip search is less intruding...

  9. Re:That explains it.... on Red Wine and the Secret of Superconductivity · · Score: 1

    Depends perhaps on body mass and the quality of wine involved?

  10. That explains it.... on Red Wine and the Secret of Superconductivity · · Score: 3, Funny

    I think that explains why my brain seems to go faster after 1-2 bottles.

  11. Kickstarter on Notch Wants To Make a Firefly-Inspired Sandbox Space Game · · Score: 2

    If he puts that idea up on kickstarter, he get my bucks in an instant ;-)

  12. I'm not angry on With Cinavia DRM, Is Blu-ray On a Path To Self-Destruction? · · Score: 1

    I will just use the DRM to implement my magic hood of invisibility. Just some content signatures on it and i will be invisible for all surveillance equipment. Project Wulgaru proceeding nicely....

  13. Not surprising on Psychic Ability Claim Doesn't Hold Up In New Scientific Experiments · · Score: 5, Funny

    I have foreseen that outcome....

  14. Disbelieve on Multiword Passwords Secure Or Not? · · Score: 2

    Even if you have a very small set of words (about 1.000) to choose from, with four words you reach about 40 bits entropy. No chance to crack this brute force.

    If you take only two words, you would have about 20 bits of entropy which is about as good/bad as cryptic password.

  15. <Robotic Voice>YES, i have been sent here to evaluate human sarcasm thresholds.</Robotic Voice>

  16. Arrogance on The eBook Backlash · · Score: 4, Insightful

    How i love terms like

    serious readers

    It is the reader, that has become faulty. Our good product is not appreciated and understood by him. He doesn't use it according to specs.

    Wake up guys! This is still the customer we are talking about ;-).

  17. Honestly on Video Captchas are Hard for Computers to Understand but Easy for Humans (Video) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The CAPTCHAs are already so "good", that i get identified as machines 7 times out of 10 :-(.

  18. Funds on Megaupload Founder Dodges Jail Again; Wife Under Investigation · · Score: 1

    While he got 30K US$ released for the next 3 weeks, he has asked for 180K US$ for "expenses" ;-). Not a shy guy...

  19. Stupid Metrics on Users Spend More Time On Myspace Than Google+ · · Score: 4, Insightful

    <SARCASM=ON> OK, the average visitor spends about 1 hour at Walmart while the average buyer at Amazon leaves the site after 3min. So drop your Amazon shares and buy Walmarts....</SARCASM>

    This is such a 20th century metric ;-)

    In earnest: Perhaps FB ist usefull to people who don't know what to do else. I am perfectly happy to be up-to-date with most of my contacts in 10min on G+. Time is the most valuable stuff i have.

  20. Just Smoke & Mirrors on ACTA Referred To Europe's Top Court For Analysis · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This is just a move to get ACTA out of the public eye. The time should be used for further actions...

  21. Depending on which tech... on Ask Slashdot: What Would Real Space Combat Look Like? · · Score: 1

    At the current level: short and expensive.

  22. Re:I may object on Laser Scanner May Allow Passengers To Take Bottled Drinks On Planes Again · · Score: 1

    Let's settle for security brothel.... (being unfair, i know, to regular brothels)

  23. Re:I may object on Laser Scanner May Allow Passengers To Take Bottled Drinks On Planes Again · · Score: 1

    Actually it will be much, much better ;-).

  24. I may object on Laser Scanner May Allow Passengers To Take Bottled Drinks On Planes Again · · Score: 1

    The mahor hassle are not the liquids but the complete chain of senseless security theater that complicate travel but not bring any security (beyond the false sense of it).

    Adding another snake oil device will not improve things.

  25. Re:Very reasonable on Germany Delays ACTA Signature, Wants More Discussion · · Score: 1

    No, my original sentence just intended to say: If we don't replace the current crop of politicians, they will pass ACTA sooner or later. We got a stay for ACTA and not a "nay" ;-).
