  1. "What are you people, on dope?!" on Marijuana Legalized In Oregon, Alaska, and Washington DC · · Score: 1

    At least now politicians can answer honestly

  2. Re:Of course on Study: Firmware Plagued By Poor Encryption and Backdoors · · Score: 1

    Manufacturers have been "hacking" your appliances to break prematurely long before the transistor was even invented

  3. Re:Refuse the search? on Google Pressure Cookers and Backpacks: Get a Visit From the Feds · · Score: 2

  5. Re:I have tried insects before on What's Stopping Us From Eating Insects? · · Score: 1

    I haven't tried them so can't comment myself, but assuming your opinion is shared with the majority of the population, it seems processing insects into a food additive, rather than consuming them directly, would be the way to go. It avoids the "ick" factor, hides the bad taste/texture, but preserves the nutritional value.

  11. Re:Uhmmm. on Ask Slashdot: Why Is It So Hard To Make An Accurate Progress Bar? · · Score: 1

  12. Re:Opera on Opera Picks Up Webkit Engine · · Score: 4, Funny

    Drama queen

  13. Botnet? on Ask Slashdot: Making Side-Money As a Programmer? · · Score: 4, Funny
