  1. Covert .NET Advertising on Ask Slashdot: Should I Ditch PHP? · · Score: 1

    The summary is too well built for not being surreptitious Microsoft advertisement.

  2. We are 98% on Match.com, Mensa Create Dating Site For Geniuses · · Score: 1

    If Mensans are so smart, why do they need a dating service?

  3. A Half-Baked Project on Jack Kevorkian Dead at 83 · · Score: 1

    I always wondered why he could help so many people to die earlier than their time and could help nobody to die later instead. To be a paladin of rights, he just fought for half of the cause.

  4. That bodes well for the world on iPad Owners Are 'Selfish Elites' · · Score: 1

    Just three millions arrogant selfish elitists. The remaining 7.0 billion people can safely improve mankind, now that the elitists are distracted.

  5. Re:iphone on No iPhone Apps, Please — We're British · · Score: 1

    Ok, but maybe the taxpayer dollars should be spent on services that everyone can make use of, not just iPhone users.

    Correct. Time has eventually come then to purge Microsoft-only technologies out of governments.

  6. I Agree with Lovelock: my first proposal on James Lovelock Suggests Suspending Democracy To Save the World · · Score: 1

    Let's begin by stopping freedom of speech for James Lovelock.

  7. Don't Understand the Question on Lessons of a $618,616 Death · · Score: 1

    AFAIK, the cost of keeping Mr. Bennett alive even if ill could be more advantageous for the community than the cost of keeping his wife alive even if healthy.

    What about the cost of keeping Stephen Hawking alive? Let's terminate Mrs. Bennett and make better use of her money.

  8. Know What You Block on Ars Technica Inveighs Against Ad Blocking · · Score: 1

    I just block Flash. Good advertising is welcome.

  9. Just a bet on How Slums Can Save the Planet · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I bet Stewart Brand doesn't live in a slum.

  10. Re:word quota on MIT Axes the 500-Word Application Essay · · Score: 1

    In journalism you have either a minimum and a maximum length requirement every time. True, a minimum length does not improve quality. Also true, 500 words are a measly requirement by all means.

    Future MIT students will be likely allowed to write essays that respect the Twitter maximum length requirements. It does not bode well for MIT.

  11. Re:Not convincing and very lame. on An Argument For Leaving DNS Control In US Hands · · Score: 1

    Trust me, before you want Italians to have rights to argue about the DNS system, just come to see how the Internet works in Italy.

  12. An ill-conceived project on SOE Pulls the Plug On The Matrix Online · · Score: 1

    Games made to be played on the Internet should be compatible with the whole Internet. The Matrix Online was Windows-only, like today is 1995. Ill-conceived projects die, not because they weren't Linux-compatible; because not being Linux- (or Mac-) compatible is, in year 2009, an evidence of ill-conceiveness.
