  1. Re:What a clusterf**k. on Obamacare Exchanges Months Behind In Testing IT Data Security · · Score: 0

    there are two big groups that want out of Obamacare, and passing laws to do so, because it is "too expensive".
    These are: Congress, and the IRS.
    Congress has so far gotten a 75% subsidy to pay for it. think you will get the same treatment?
    If they cannot afford it, with their 6 figure salaries, how are the rest of us supposed to?

  2. Important part on US Intel Agencies To Build Superconducting Computer · · Score: 0

    Does it have a place where I can keep beer cold? You know, if there isn't a spot, they'll just stuck it on top of the CPU. What kind of results would you get then?

  3. Re:MW on US Intel Agencies To Build Superconducting Computer · · Score: 0

    I take it the phrase "relays clacked" is no longer useful in science fiction stories?

    your moths have to be much smaller now to get caught in the works.

  4. Re:This is a Dupe on Project Anonymizes Your Writing Style To Hide Your Identity · · Score: 0

    Are you sure that they didn't run the article through this program just to see if it worked? Since you noticed, it apparently doesn't work very well.

  5. Old TV program on 10 Wearable Habitats To Shelter You From the Apocalypse · · Score: 0

    A few years ago they had a TV program where people showed off their inventions. One of the most popular categories was methods to urinate in public. These "habitats" look a lot like those inventions. Could these really be public urinals designed to look like tents?

  6. Glad I don't live in Tokyo on Japan Launches Talking Humanoid Robot Into Space · · Score: 1

    We all know how this will end. We've all seen the Japanese movies. Tokyo is going to end up in ashes and rubble. Then Godzilla will wake up, and things will get messy.

  7. Re:Not enough on Microsoft Cuts Surface Pro Price By $100 · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I'll wait until they drop the price to $19.95, and come with a set of Ginsu knives. Then I'll have something useful. A cutting board and a set of knives.

    Translation of what he said

    I fon't work for the Great Grand Glorious Microsoft Corporatioj, I will acutally grind out crappy programs on other companys disguisying operaying systems if I'm forced to.
    I'll stoop so low as to run Microsoft Windows on a Dell, which proves I'm not a shill for the Wonderous Microsoft Corporation. You should also run the Fantastic Microsoft Operating System to prove you aren't a paid representative too. They even have a great medical plan, and lots of vacation time.

    More interesting option, take over the signals, and drive your new car to a hidden location.
    how many cars could you get if this takes off in a large city. You could sit in your mom's basement in your underwear, collecting large number of cars.
    You could create a service: Someone wants a car for a robbery, and you can deliver one to them without ever touching it.
    The bad giuys would have a field day with this.

    If you eliminate the driver, who's going to mangle your packages for you? Someone needs to be there to toss your new glassware from the curb to your front door.

  11. What I always use on More Encryption Is Not the Solution · · Score: 0

    I bypass all of those expensive encryption schemes, and encode my data using rot13, twice!
    They'll never figure that one out in a hundred years! They only expect you to encrypt things once, so doubling it up provides a much more secure encryption!

  12. What about Obama on Government Study Finds TSA Misconduct Up 26% In 3 Years · · Score: 0

    Obama has declared the war on terror to be over. Since the TSA was created to fight that same war on terror, why is it still in existence? Should the USA still be hiring pirates to fight the war of independence?
    How much is he spending to fight a war that he has declared to be finished?

  13. Re:Class action suit vs a corporation on Apple Retailer Facing Class Action Suit Over Employee Bag Checks · · Score: 0

    Bit, to be like most software EULAa, they will have to agree to it before they can read it. Just like a congressional law.

    Even if you could install Linux or Android, it would still have the MICROSOFT logo on it. That would be as embarrassing as a guy going to school wearing his younger sisters old clothes.
