  1. Isn't it funny on China Blocking Access to Google News Site · · Score: 1

    They can't even read an article about them being censored!

    Oh the irony...

  2. Re:what annoys ME... on Election Day Discussion · · Score: 1

    Personally I'm more scared about what Bush has done and is capable of doing than Kerry. It's all a matter of who sucks less. NO politician is perfect/all good/insert adjective.

  3. Re:My fav part.. on Iranian Bloggers Arrested · · Score: 1

    "I am so SMRT" speech that is

  4. My fav part.. on Iranian Bloggers Arrested · · Score: 2, Funny

    "disturbing the public mind"

    talk about no free speach- oh yeah it's IRAN

  5. But the real question is... on New brewing Method Means Faster Beer, Less Waste · · Score: 0

    will beer prices actually go down?

  6. Re:This is....sad. on Stern Will Jump To Sirius In 2006 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I have listened to Stern and he's mostly child and potty humor. The FCC does have the authority to moderate "decent" speech- Stern is purposely over the top lewd. I should be free of listening to his smut when I'm channel surfing. I'm glad he's on paid radio. Those that want to listen to him can pay for it- just like those that want soft-core porn can pay for Skinimax.

    Just my $0.02

  7. Yeeeaaaahhhhhhhh on Internet2 Speed Record Broken · · Score: -1, Redundant

    even faster porn! yeeeeaaahhhhhh

  8. Re:Have you tried drinking???? on Sleeping Problems? · · Score: 1

    agreed. although I prefer bad sleep over no sleep.

    and I'm not advocating 10 beers- 3-4 does it for me. I use it a a relaxing agent.

  9. Have you tried drinking???? on Sleeping Problems? · · Score: 1

    I can always fall asleep after a couple of beers or a glass or wine or two. I mainly have problems sleeping after playing socder/floor hockey at night after work.

  10. Re:Dreamed-of feature on Favorite Programming Language Features? · · Score: 1

    why not just write your own compiler?

    this is what it sounds like you want???

  11. It's sad but... on Attitudes in IT - Mediocrity Wins? · · Score: 0, Troll

    there's nothing you can do if your client is this dumb. I wouldn't waste the time trying to explain it. Just give up.

  12. Re:Get the Feds out... on FBI Plans Spammer Smackdown · · Score: 1

    Aren't there jurisdiction issues with each state having it's own laws? A spammer violates different laws in each state they send spam to? I'm no lawyer but it seems to me that any lawsuits would be very complicated with different sets of laws..

  13. Mythbusters? on Can Cell Phones Ignite Gasoline Vapors? · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Did anyone see the episode of MythBusters where they DISPELLED this urban legend??? They filled a 10x10 or so chamber with gas fumes and called a cell phone repeatedly- no fire....

  14. Some math is Useful on Math And The Computer Science Major · · Score: 1

    The most important classes I took were Discrete Mathematics 1 and 2 which covers predicate logic, number theory ect and Algorithms which is useful in programming.
    I'd say Calc 1,2 and 3, Differential Equations are of no real use.

  15. It's all about perception... on Mac's Immunity To Recent Virus Attacks · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Mac's seem to be immune from viruses not because Mac's are totally secure, it's due to the fact that the clowns that write viruses HATE Microsoft and want MS to look bad. Every OS has holes of some sort. No software is perfect.

  16. Re:No interest on Essential .NET, Volume I · · Score: 1

    impressive adult response...

  17. Just a restatement of copyright law on House Bill to Make File-Sharing an Automatic Felony · · Score: 1

    Come on- the title is a bit misleading. It's not outlawing all file sharing, just sharing that violates copyright law. No big deal if you actually read the bill text.

  18. Re:.NET can't handle slashdot effect on National Do Not Call List Opens for Registrations · · Score: 1

    There is actually a link on the MSN homepage- I'd go ahead and guess that MSN get's more hits than /.

  19. Re:What happens on Spammers Threaten Techdirt With Lawsuit · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Yes- spammer should all die-

    seriously- they are one of the lowest forms of businessmen..

  20. It's the customer's project on When Should a Consultant Question Decisions? · · Score: 1

    This is unfortunately true- I usually tell them yes but then make them fully aware of all the negatives that go along with saying yes.
    If after that if they say yes- they get it.

  21. Re:Contrast this with patents on Federal Judge Rules Against Reverse-engineering · · Score: 1

    Companies shouldn't have to disclose the innards of their technology- they produced it- therefore they can control how it's disseminated.

  22. What out the .porn TLD on Should Innocently-Named Porn Sites Be Illegal? · · Score: 1

    I read somewhere that they were going to have a .sex or .xxx top level domain to indicate that the site is a porn site...

  23. Re:Commercial products aren't speech on Game Industry Fights Violent Game Ban · · Score: 1

    Of course you should have access- I'm assuming you are an adult. I see NO difference between rating and restricting movie and doing the same with video games. The law seems to restrict access to violent games by MINORS. I think this has been lost in the discussion.

  24. Re:And? on That Link Is Illegal · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It's a public university- i.e. they have to abide by state and federal law. If the Patriot Act prohibits linking to "dangerous" sites then to me it's in violation of the 1st amendment. So they need to decide which one is right- the 1st Amd. or the Patriot Act.

  25. Re:You're trying to protect people from themselves on Should "B" be the Same as "b"? · · Score: 1

    But that is the point- most people are, sad to say, not that observant and will just get frustrated with case-sensitivity. I have a hard enough time trying to get my grandmother to even use a mouse. She still can't comprehend the whole "I need to click to put the focus on a textbox".
    Granted I think our generation is able to pick up computers a bit easier.
