  1. Cue Streisand on Report Indicates Widespread H-1B Visa Fraud · · Score: 1

    The US immigration "policy" since Reagan (rot in hell, Ron) was only ever about cheap labor. Lower cost == bigger profit.

    It's been interesting to see the arc of H1-B being an issue. 10 years ago a lot of the "we're superior beings, we don't need a union" developer types argued only the best and brightest would be allowed in.

    --
    This struggle is about rich & poor and brother, we ain't rich.

  2. Re:Efficiency on Plug-In Hybrids Aren't Coming, They're Here · · Score: 1

    "...use the money they make from us, to build an army up and come over here and kill us."

    Surely we've given them enough money to do that by now. Hell, another week and they can just buy us.

  3. Swing Lo Sweet Pendulum on State of Kentucky Seizes Control of 141 Domain Names · · Score: 1

    Government is at it's best when it's overreaching.

  4. No surprise on Software Spots Spin In Political Speeches · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Obama has to spin the most. He can't be seen as too uppity. People in the US don't want to hear truth, least of all from a black man.

    silly sig

  6. Don't Mess With TEXAS! on PC Repair In Texas Now Requires a PI License · · Score: 1

    It's perfectly capable of stepping on it's _own_ (tiny flaccid) dick, thank you.

  7. And thus on H.R. 4279 Would Establish Federal IP Cops · · Score: 3, Insightful

    the transformation will be complete. Just think how easy getting warrants will be now. It shouldn't take long for dead tree publishers and $manufacturing_interests to gain "equal protection".

    Thanks Retards.

  8. Microsoft Free 10 yrs later on Microsoft Free, One Year Later · · Score: 1

    And my verdict is: "Move along, theres nothing to see here."

    As in >97% of the arguments against haven't been issues in this century. The newbs ain't helping by keeping alive zombie FUD.

  9. Re:Dual Boot on Securing Your Notebook Against US Customs · · Score: 1

    DoublePlus Good

  10. Malda means nerd en espanol on Diebold Admits ATMs Are More Robust Than Voting Machines · · Score: 1

    "Riggall" You can't make this shit up.

  11. Reason #87923642 why your music is suks on Researchers Create an Automatic Backup Band for Singers · · Score: 1

    I think the brain power would be more well spent if they created a robot that does research.
    The humans seem to only ever think of bad ideas.

  12. Hold on to that dream on Computer Games Make Players Less Violent · · Score: -1, Troll

    Whether or not you're violent is a moot point when you're too fat to get out of your chair

  13. Just say NO on Plants Use Twitter to Tell You to Water Them · · Score: 1

    Okay, today I saw in order:

    1) Tabletop home aeroponic "herb garden"
    2) Upside down hanging "tomato" grow bags

    Now this?

  17. As we say in NY... on Rob Malda Answers Your Questions · · Score: 1

    Mazel Tov!

    The 10 years really snuck up on me but it's really good to know that one can indeed make their own niche in the world
    and do it with integrity.
    To me, it sounds to like you're richer than mere money can make a man.

  18. Re:From what I understand... on James Randi Posts $1M Award On Speaker Cables · · Score: 1

    I'm reminded of an interview with Pete Townshend in Mix magazine. The interviewer asks about sample rates and PT says nothing special happens till you get to 192kHz. Then he acknowledges that he's deaf as a brick and admits his opinion is faith-based.
    But it's still given as gospel.

  19. Re:All the things true Audiophile needs.... on James Randi Posts $1M Award On Speaker Cables · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Audiophile == "I'm better than you. My senses are sharper, and that's why I spend more on things you could never appreciate, what with you being inferior and all."

    Kinda make me root for the vendors.

    And yet JWZ was still a rockstar (not like now :P)

  22. It's true on A Brief History of Slashdot Part 1, Chips & Dips · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Back when I first came here one could read every comment from every story posted and still have spare time.

  23. Re:I was there on A Brief History of Slashdot Part 1, Chips & Dips · · Score: 1

    Add one more. It woulda been lower, but I waited till Bruce Perens said it was OK ;)

  24. Re:Contingency For Ethernet on Uneducated IT Managers, and How to Deal? · · Score: 1

    Flowers? Jewelery? Nah, just be a Man.

  25. Re:Beatles vs. Beethoven on Slashback: Lapses, Maps, Ludwig Van · · Score: 1

    Yer really taking a chance going out on a limb with this "Yoko sucks" thing. It's even better flame war material than GNOME/KDE|vi/EMACS ;)

    Even Lennon knew she sucked. He married her 'cause she swallows...
