    Now you forget he could've been just run over by schoolbus on the way home. What then?

  4. Bright side! on IMSLP Taken Down By UK Publishers Group · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Look at the bright side of this. Now I know this site (with the very interesting content it has) exists! Thank you MPA of UK.

  5. Re:Misleading... on Lawmaker Reintroduces WikiLeaks Prosecution Bill · · Score: 1

    The problem is not about mobilizing enough people to elect a government. The problem is that the government after the election will be (about) the same it was before. Choice to elect somebody new (with new and sincere agenda) is pretty much nonexistent. And even if somebody "new" comes in, he/she/it will be corrupted before you can blink your eyes even one time. You know, power just ruins people. And it's easier to walk the path somebody (everybody) has walked before. Conclusion - democracy is just a joke. It's no better than other forms of governing. Enlightened dictator would almost certainly be better than the "entertainment" democracy we tend to have nowadays.

    You think so?

    Containing (for the most part) the same people in different order.
    Containing the same parties (with same agenda, just different words)
    in different proportions. Yeah, dream come true. This is not overthrowing.
    It's just a stirring happening regularly.

    Exactly how democracy removes the need for mass protests to overthrow their government is beyond me.
    Especially the kind of "democracy" commonly practiced nowadays.

  9. Previous Jobs? on 10% of IT Pros Can Access Previous Jobs' Accounts · · Score: 1

    Remember, the name is Steve Jobs actually.

  10. Re:Makes sense. Laptops for example. on Intel Resumes Shipping of Faulty Sandy Bridge Chip · · Score: 1

    Hmm, AMD's high-end (think servers) still looks pretty nice, at least for some workloads.

    Well, it's not as well positioned as the other two. They should do something about it.

    It's pretty obvious from released material that there should be at least 3 satellites orbiting...

    Slashdot likes to be in an opposition. As simple as that.

    Who says soul cannot somehow instantaneously move to just re-materialized body (and who says soul is _in_ the body at all)?

    Who committed suicide exactly?

    Teen angst? Yeah that was for you to see. Others saw deeper and more thoughtful constructs.
    Based on your comment, I don't expect you to understand like I do not exactly understand
    why I'm writing this commend currently.

    Oh well.

  19. Re:Hmm, shoulda hired from Google on Nokia Names Microsoft's Elop As New CEO · · Score: 1

    No specifics needed. E52 is a CRAP phone. Simply. It's SO crap that I really don't want to know anything about NOKIA for some coming years.

    Last time I decided that about another phone and company (Ericsson) was many years ago and guess what .. how much money they've gotten
    from me since then. Zip. Zero. Although that may change now. Gonna evaluate different phones from Sony-Ericsson, Samsung, HTC soon...

    But no NOKIA. They shouldn't fuck their customers with phone that expensive.

  25. Re:I see. on German User Fined For Having an Open Wi-Fi · · Score: 1

    It's more like someone walked into my private garden (which has big "Everybody Welcome to Enjoy Nature Here" sign at the gate) and murdered somebody there.
    Now, I get punished for making such a space available to fellow citizens? Go figure.
