  1. "..I did'nt make money by writing checks..." on Microsoft Slaps $250K Bounty On Conficker Worm · · Score: 1

    Heh M$ pay anything, I don't think so. Like that Simpsons' episode where M$ buys Homer's company: "...you don't think I made money by writing checks ...break 'em up boys....."

  2. I thought this was 2008 not 1984 on UK Culture Secretary Wants Website Ratings, Censorship · · Score: 1

    Well looks like 1984 was put on hold until 2008 or 2009

  3. US Health system on Discuss the US Presidential Election & Health Care · · Score: 1

    Our health care system is only good for emergency care, you know things like cit off fingers...etc. As for long term preventative health care we need to get rid of drug company and insurance company lobbies. Their interest is purely $$$. We also need to get rid of the AMA's long-reaching influence. Tye also are only in it for the $$$. Cancer industry, heart accociation what a load of crap. They are interested in keeping Cancer and Heart disease an epidemic. Alex

  4. Where is UNIX (HP-UX, Solaris, AIX....etc) headed on NYT Ponders the Future of Solaris In a Linux/Windows World · · Score: 1

    Seems to me (a 20 year UNIX veteran) that any interesting new UNIX development is happening in Linux and OSX. Seems to me that all the UNIX vendors will eventually move to Linux and we will see the death of UNIX.

  5. Re:Assholes - the whole lot of them on Senator Proposes to Monitor All P2P Traffic for Illegal Files · · Score: 1

    Yes indeed. What a bunch of fucktards, but what do we expect from morons.

  6. Time to expand our prison system on Internet Pranks in Schools · · Score: 1

    Might as well as throw all the under 20 year olds in prison. I mean really, instead of prosecuting children ("Won't someone think of the children" :) ) why don't they start holding the parents responsible.

  7. Hpw long before.... on Microsoft Pushes Copyright Education Curriculum · · Score: 1

    How ridiculous for a corporation to educate. Won't be long before M$$$$$$ teaches that it's illegal to use anything but WinBlows (tm)...Outrageous

  8. Re:"behavior-detection officers" on Airport Profilers Learn to Read Facial Expressions · · Score: 1

    Headed??? We are already there.

  9. Well.. on Science vs. Homeopathy · · Score: 1

    In any case I will not allow the drug companies slowly poison me to a cancerous early grave. Nor my family. We don't have health care in this country (US) we have drug company dumping grounds. No thank you.

  10. Time for parents to wake up on Some Schools Ending Laptop Programs · · Score: 1

    Hmmm gee ya think that instead of wasting millions on tech we could spent more quality time with our children..ya know maybe that might help solve the social issues. When you have a child be prepared to spend the time needed to raise the child properly. DO NOT EXPEDCT THE SCHOOL SYSTEM TO DO THIS FOR YOU...

  11. The real issues on Can Technology Fix the Health Care System? · · Score: 1

    1. The health care industry is run by the insurance and drug companies
    2. We (The US) are hooked on drugs
    3. Looking for easy solutions to tough problesms.."just take a pill"
    Having good health requires research, active lifestyle and a willingness to look to alternatives.
    If the health care industry really wanted to end things like cancer, there would not be a "cancer industry". Many jobs in the health care industry are dependent on people getting sick.

  12. Re:Starting to annoy... on Is Vista a Trap? · · Score: 1

    What a load of FUD.

  13. Re:Opinion from an Immigration Officer on Canadian Border Tightens Due to Info Sharing · · Score: 1

    Here is the quote from that site:

    Home Visas and Immigration Persons who are inadmissible to Canada
    Persons who are inadmissible to Canada

    Members of Inadmissible Classes include those who have been convicted of MINOR OFFENCES (including shoplifting, theft, assault, dangerous driving, unauthorized possession of a firearm, possession of illegal substances, etc.), or of INDICTABLE CRIMINAL OFFENCES (including assault with a deadly weapon, manslaughter, etc.). As well, those who have been convicted of DRIVING WHILE INTOXICATED (DWI) are considered Members of an Inadmissible Class. Driving while under the influence of alcohol is regarded as an extremely serious offence in Canada.

    Those who have received TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS (including parking/speeding tickets, etc.) and other minor violations (i.e. littering, etc.) most likely will NOT be prohibited from entering Canada. Similarly, those who have JUVENILE CONVICTIONS (convictions for crimes committed while under age 18) most likely will NOT be prohibited from entering Canada unless they could have been tried as an adult for their offences.

    Sounds like the "Canadian officer" above does not know his own rules.

  14. Disturbing on Ex-judge Gets 27 Months on Evidence From Hacked PC · · Score: 1

    Something about the hacker really is not right. First, you might as well as just shoot the ex-judge with health problems. Why would any sane person allow this asshole hacker to still be at large. He could fabricate evidence easily against anyone he does not like. He also is a sociopath, obviously..I guess our society will continue to be run by morons.

  15. Qualified personnel on Congress Tackles Patent Reform · · Score: 1

    Maybe there needs to be better qualified personnel to review patents. Seems like the ones there now really have no clue about researching things like prior art...etc

  16. Re:Nothing to see here, please move along on RIAA Mischaracterizes Letter Received From AOL · · Score: 1

    I have no confidence in most American doctors because the insurance companies tell them what to do. Usually they can't do what is really needed. The thing to do is to do some research and find a good doctor, don't go to any doctor the insurance co tells you to go to. most Americans don't research anything.

  17. Re:Reducing clutter on Plasma: The Next-Generation KDE Environment Review · · Score: 1

    LMAO slashdotted already

  18. Can-Am on Storage System for Thousands of CDs and DVDs? · · Score: 1

    I have been using the Can-Am storage for my CDs since about 1997. I have 3500 CDs in sleeves, not jewel cases, and have space for about 3000 more. It's a great but pricy system.

  19. Re:what do they want? on RIAA Wants to Depose Dead Defendant's Children · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    What makes you think that the RIAA pays the artists anything or fairly. To me the RIAA are bottom feeder scum who leech off the artists. They add no value.

  20. Re:NO. Time to change to a CREDIT UNION on Techies Asked To Train Foreign Replacements · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I agree with this, but as a small business owner that uses a CU they don't have things like:
    SBA loans
    Credit card processing

  22. Just because on Gates Pledges $750M to Vaccinate Children · · Score: 1

    Just because someone donates to "charities" does not change that person's character. By the way here are what those "vaccinations" can do:
    http://www.healing-arts.org/children/cdc.htm
    What percentage of the money donated actually get's used to buy what the children need?

  23. Which is worse on Michael Powell to Leave FCC · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Ok so which is worse nakid breast or some guy's head being chopped in. Personally I would rather my daughter see the breast than the chopped in head. The FCC seems perfectly happy with kids watching extreme violence but get's all disgruntled over band language (so what) or a nakid body part. Makes me wonder. Alex

  24. Re:Cry-Fucking-Babies on Electronic Arts Facing Possible Class Action Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    It's a little different when you are getting $200.00/hour. Also as a lawyer you can set up your own office (I know not easy) and still charge $200.00/hour. If people got reasonable compensation for overtime (comp or $$) it would not be so bad. So what makes lawyers so special?

  25. Re:Former EA Employees? on Electronic Arts Facing Possible Class Action Lawsuit · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Exactly. Kind of like being in Nazi Germany where those who knew it was wrong and yet did not do/say anything about it are just as guilty as the preptrators.
