  1. Who do you trust? on Portal 2 Incompatible With SELinux · · Score: 3, Insightful

    That is what it boils down to. Do i trust a game company on a secured system? No.

  2. Re:Regulatory hurdles on Genomic Medicine, Finally · · Score: 2

    So you just get treatment somewhere else in the world that is less restrictive.

  3. Re:Does not make sense on Massachusetts Court Says 'Upskirt' Photos Are Legal · · Score: 1

    Are you on the court and making a statement?

    If not, i stand by my judgement that they are just a bunch of out of control perverts.

  4. Re:Oh great idea guys. A Virus SDK for Android on New Tool Makes Android Malware Easier To Create · · Score: 1

    hese days, just rooting your Android device is not as simple as running some root kit.

    Depends on your phone on how difficult it is. Depending on where you buy it it comes pre-rooted even.

    Also, what if the woman is not wearing any underwear? It is her business if she is, or is not, and by wearing a skirt she has a reasonable right to privacy in that matter.

    I do agree, but the court there feels that their stuff is public and they are virtually inviting people to lay on the ground and stare at it if they dont wear underwear under their dress which under normal circumstances would be expected to hide anything..

    Now if they were wearing a miniskirt which DOES rise up as you walk, well, that is their own fault if people look

  6. Re:Nudity has nothing to do with it on Massachusetts Court Says 'Upskirt' Photos Are Legal · · Score: 1

    If you cover your face, it means you dont want it to be public and are actively stating it with your actions, so i dont have a problem with people being beat down who do stick a camera in your hood and take a picture. ( and then arrested )

  7. Define music on It's True: Some People Just Don't Like Music · · Score: 1

    If you find what they consider music they would like it. Problem is most of what is considered music is complete trash, and barely more than coordinated noise.

  8. Aliens on Hubble Witnesses Mysterious Breakup of Asteroid · · Score: 5, Funny

    Simple industrial ( mining ) accident. I wonder of they have their own version of OSHA.

  9. Re:3 months? on Samsung Galaxy Glass Patent Plans To Turn Fingers Into a Keyboard · · Score: 0

    Only serves to increase my general disgust with mankind.

  10. 3 months? on Samsung Galaxy Glass Patent Plans To Turn Fingers Into a Keyboard · · Score: 0, Troll

    You must be a clumsy idiot and shouldn't own a phone. I have never broken a phone, and i normally keep them an average of 3 *years* before they are upgraded to new technology.

    Tablets, same thing.

  11. Nudity has nothing to do with it on Massachusetts Court Says 'Upskirt' Photos Are Legal · · Score: 1

    Photographing things publicly visible is fine, but what is inside of a dress is not publicly visible.

  12. Re:Why? on Bitcoin Inventor Satoshi Nakamoto Outed By Newsweek · · Score: 0

    The paper should be shut down and every reporter involved fined, jailed and stripped of their rights.

  13. Re:Too late at 30!?!? on Ask Slashdot: How Do I Change Tech Careers At 30? · · Score: 1

    That was my thought too. He is worried about being 30? WTF dude, just learn something else and move on.

    Now, if you were 50, we might have something to talk about as there is discrimination going on at that level especially if you are changing fields. but 30? Umm, no.

  14. Damned socalists on Mozilla Is Investigating Why Dell Is Charging To Install Firefox · · Score: 1

    They think a persons labor should be free or something. Or is FF so advanced now it spontaneously appears on a computer?

  15. The first one is always free on Getty Images Makes 35 Million Images Free For Non-Commercial Use · · Score: 1

    Get used to using them, expect a charge to come later.

  16. Re:Why do they need to unlock it? on Apple Refuses To Unlock Bequeathed iPad · · Score: 1

    Doesn't work that way anymore from what i gather. No pass code, no factory reset.

  17. Sounds logical, but uncool on Apple Refuses To Unlock Bequeathed iPad · · Score: 1

    They are not obligated to violate any contacts they had with the deceased. They also are not obligated to violate the person's privacy.

    With no explicit permission how is Apple to know that the dead person was going to be ok with their family trampling thru her files, browsing history, email? its one thing to give out the device, but its another to give out the data and should be spelled out explicitly.

    As a compromise Apple could either remote wipe it for them, or give them a new one. I support their stance to keep private data, well private.

  18. Ok, when did that become permitted again? last i heard it was still a 'scheduled drug' and even research was banned.

  19. Re:Why? on Bitcoin Inventor Satoshi Nakamoto Outed By Newsweek · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Even better: Why was his privacy violated by Newsweek in the first place?

  20. *yawn* on Bug In the GnuTLS Library Leaves Many OSs and Apps At Risk · · Score: 0

    Everything is vulnerable. its just a matter of how.

  21. Those with the money on Feds Now Oppose Aereo, Rejecting Cloud Apocalypse Argument · · Score: 2

    Get to make the rules. Yet another example.

  22. Just shut down already on RadioShack To Close 1,100 Stores · · Score: 1

    They have not been worth a damn for decades, its time to throw in the towel and give up. Go out with what little bit of dignity they have left.

  23. Re:Kind of Surprised at only 62% on Android Beats iOS As the Top Tablet OS · · Score: 1

    Sort of.

    Quality tablets are not approaching that range. But i do agree that sub 50 dollar tablets are disposable ( and also a dismal experience which can harm the perception of android in general )

  24. Re:So what? on Android Beats iOS As the Top Tablet OS · · Score: 1

    Umm my t/x had great battery life. It didn't lose its mind if the battery would die. its screen was also larger..

  25. Well DUH on Android Beats iOS As the Top Tablet OS · · Score: 2

    There is one manufacturer of iOS tablets, there are butt loads of android tablet makers.

    That fact alone tips the balance. And like the story says, lots of them are *cheap*, in a market where apple would never tread.
