  1. Re:jerk on Georgia Cop Issues 800 Tickets To Drivers Texting At Red Lights · · Score: 1

    ...and you're blaming the stationary texter for someone blithefully flying up behind them without any apparent rational sense of caution?

  2. Re:Could be clearer, as per usual on N. Korea-Bound Ship With 'Military Cargo' Detained By Panama · · Score: 1

    You shouldn't be pedantic if you didn't bother to read the headline (nearly identical in TFS and TFA, but they both mention Panama). Since this is Slashdot, you can't be blamed for not reading TFA (the Beeb one), which does attribute the claim to "Panama's president" in literally the first 2 words.

  3. Re:uh... on Ask Slashdot: What To Do With New Free Time? · · Score: 2

    I disagree - at least there he'd be asking "I need advice on subject X. What should I do?" on a specific topic instead of "I have too much time on my hands. What should I do?" which is so vague as to be meaningless.

  4. Re:Another fail.... What is truth? on Seeking Fifth Amendment Defenders · · Score: 1

    Unless she killed her mother during the visit, it seems entirely likely she'd have a witness to being out of town.

  5. Re:Um.... on A Computer-based Smart Rifle With Incredible Accuracy, Now On Sale · · Score: 1

    Stop signs don't really stop bullets, you know.

  6. Re:Damages to out of state companies on California's Surreal Retroactive Tax On Tech Startup Investors · · Score: 4, Funny

    We can not allow the tarrifists to win!

  7. Re:Mommy... on Newspaper That Published Gun-Owners List Hires Armed Guards · · Score: 1

    To my mind, both would seem to refer to an ability to do something. What are you suggesting is the difference between the "right" and the "power" in this case?

  8. Re:My .02 on The Worst Apple Store In America — An Employee Confession · · Score: 1

    Don't be so clueless. They weren't making political statements and fighting the man, they were just childishly destroying and stealing things because they could.

  9. Re:My last virus clenaup involved BitCoin processi on BitCoin Card To Launch In 2 Months, Says BitInstant · · Score: 1

    Get a better bank. Mine has no ATM fees, and refunds $x (25?) of other bank's ATM charges per month.

  10. Re:Blindsight, by Peter Watts on Ask Slashdot: What's the Most Depressing Sci-fi You've Ever Read? · · Score: 1

    His Rifters trilogy is pretty depressing, too. But...great at the same time. :)

  11. Re:They're just hypocrites on German Authorities Find Al Qaeda Plans Disguised In Porn · · Score: 1

    no, it was some buildings

  12. Re:Finallly history repeats on Millions In China Live In Energy Efficient Caves · · Score: 1

    That's the spirit!

  13. Re:Not gonna happen. on What Happens When the Average Lifespan is 150 Years? · · Score: 1

    22 is still pretty young, you know. Wait til she gets older.

  14. Re:It's Called "Blame Pay" on US Gov't Pays IT Contractors Twice As Much As Its Own IT Workers · · Score: 1

    The right hand doesn't, either.

  15. Re:But what... on Russia Approves Siberia-Alaska Railway · · Score: 1

    Sure, but they're all full of eels.

  16. Re:Your phone number on P2P Alarm Clock Service · · Score: 1

    Ooh! What app do you use for that?

  17. Re:Obligatory Shelley quote on Sheikh Carves His Name In Desert So It's Visible From Space · · Score: 1

    Entropy is really a PITA.

  18. Great Idea! on Dumpster Drive: File-Sharing For Your Digital Trash · · Score: 2

    Can't see how it could possibly go wrong...

  19. Re:can I avoid the stun effect... on StunRay Incapacitates With a Flash of Light · · Score: 1

    [guitar]

    YEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

    (lameness filter is lame, oh yes it is)

  20. Re:Carl Sagan on Case Closed On Jerusalem UFO Video · · Score: 1

    Ah, the old "you merely saw the planet Venus" dodge. Whatever you say, Jesse.

  21. Re:I, for one, salute our new sock-puppet overlord on US Military Commissions Sock Puppet Program · · Score: 1

    Sure, but if they decide you're renouncing your citizenship to avoid paying taxes, then you can't.

  22. Re:up to? on Giant Archaeological Trove Found Via Google Earth · · Score: 1

    When 9000 years old you reach, look as good you will not!

    Fark Zuckerberg?

  24. Re:hard passwords just lead to post it's even more on The Case For Lousy Passwords · · Score: 1

    So...you just corrected his punctuation by using an apostrophe to form a plural? I award you 10,000 irony points.

  25. Re:Use of Caps Lock key on Google Wants To Take Away Your Capslock Key · · Score: 1

    In Windows, using alt-shift you can cycle through various keyboards and character sets you may have installed. It needn't be caps lock only.
