  1. Aliens on Scientists Solve Mystery of World-Traveling Plant · · Score: 1

    Its always the answer to the unanswerable.

  2. Re:Hmmmmmm on GNU Hurd Gets Improvements: User-Space Driver Support and More · · Score: 1

    Plan 9 is open too.

    On Inferno, has there been any activity at all the last few years from vitanuova? Seems like its totally stagnant at this point. Not flaming, but i cant see anything going on now.

  3. Re:Hmmmmmm on GNU Hurd Gets Improvements: User-Space Driver Support and More · · Score: 1

    Plan 9 works, today. If you want to stay current, you want to go with 9Front however.

  4. Fight back on A Corporate War Against a Scientist, and How He Fought Back · · Score: 1

    And you will never work again in any related industry.

  5. Re:Net Neutrality on Reason To Hope Carriers Won't Win the War On Netflix · · Score: 2

    Right, the court told them how to do it in no uncertain terms, and they effectively looked the other way.

    So it sort of proves our point.

  6. I am unsure how the FCC lets this occur. on Reason To Hope Carriers Won't Win the War On Netflix · · Score: 1

    They are letting far too many things happen, they are either asleep at the wheel, or have been paid off. Either way, us consumers are the ones that are going to lose in the long run. The ones they are supposed to be protecting.

  7. Net Neutrality on Reason To Hope Carriers Won't Win the War On Netflix · · Score: 1, Funny

    Has already been abandoned by the FCC, so better get used to it.. Its only going to get worse.

  8. Re:You are confused..... on Snowden Used Software Scraper, Say NSA Officials · · Score: -1

    Seems my signature is beyond your comprehension. Not surprised.

  9. Re:The building owner is at fault? on L.A. Building's Lights Interfere With Cellular Network, FCC Says · · Score: 3, Informative

    If they continue to use the bulbs, yes the building owners are at fault. They cant just point the finger elsewhere once they have been notified.

  10. Re:When you are a criminal on Snowden Used Software Scraper, Say NSA Officials · · Score: 0

    He broke the law. He even admits it. This makes him a criminal.

    Also, I don't care what think your motive is, you don't turn over classified documents to the enemy. He's a traitor and should hang.

  11. Re:When you are a criminal on Snowden Used Software Scraper, Say NSA Officials · · Score: 1

    Snowden clearly broke the law. NSA, not so clear.

  12. When you are a criminal on Snowden Used Software Scraper, Say NSA Officials · · Score: 1, Insightful

    You use proper tools.

  13. Matter of time on Florida Arrests High-Dollar Bitcoin Exchangers For Money Laundering · · Score: 3, Interesting

    The entire 'barter system' scares governments as they cant track and tax it. Things like bitcoin will be crushed, one way or another.

    They also are not keen on regular currency, for similar reasons.

  14. vpn on Ask Slashdot: Distributed Online Storage For Families? · · Score: 1

    Just setup your own stuff at home and vpn there. Its yours, its secure and as cheap as you like.

  15. Depends on Cops With Google Glass: Horrible Idea, Or Good One? · · Score: 1

    If they are just wandering around recording everything they see, its bad. If they are going to limit to recording 'interactions' then its not much worse than dash cams.

  16. Re:Cut the "fuck beta" crap already on Finnish Police Board Wants Justification For Wikipedia's Fundraising Campaign · · Score: 1

    if you really think you can compare the childish crap that is is being done here to legitimate protest *at all*, you really need to get out of your mothers basement more.

  17. Re:Easy fix on Dirty Tricks? Look-Alike Websites Lure Congressional Donors · · Score: 1

    What was described was to give said donation with premeditated intent to remove it, so as to cost the receiver money.

    That is fraud.

  18. Re:Why? on Slashdot Tries Something New; Audience Responds! · · Score: 1

    I also doubt that you do. I would be willing to bet the only thing you do for a living is cook fries, perhaps someday you will get to move up to the register.

    I however, do. And yes, i will toss anyone out that disturbs my customers. i will refuse allow some crybaby prick disrupt my business, which is exactly what was going on here at /.

  19. Re:Dangerous precident on Dirty Tricks? Look-Alike Websites Lure Congressional Donors · · Score: 4, Insightful

    For the record i do think what they were doing wrong and should be slapped down for it. I am just disagreeing with using the 'copyright angle' to deal with it, as its a bad direction to take, with long term bad consequences for the concept of free-speech.

    Also i didn't mean to say they were engaging in parody, just that political parody will be one of the casualties if we go down this road. My fault if i didn't make that clear enough.

  20. Re:Easy fix on Dirty Tricks? Look-Alike Websites Lure Congressional Donors · · Score: 2

    I speaking from a purely legal standpoint, not the likely outcome. you intended to commit fraud, just as the people managing the webpage are. This is 2014. Is the '2 wrongs make a right' mandate now in effect and i missed the memo that somehow justifiable wrong is ok now?

  21. Re:Why? on Slashdot Tries Something New; Audience Responds! · · Score: 1

    I don't believe you for one second that you wouldn't not complain. Furthermore, if you were at my shop and started acting like a f-ing moron when you don't get your way on your time frame, you are simply a whiny brat and your business isn't welcome in the first place. ( most likely i would also have had you ejected into the street, by force if necessary )

  22. Re:Easy fix on Dirty Tricks? Look-Alike Websites Lure Congressional Donors · · Score: 2

    If it can be shown that was your intent, you are committing fraud too. Enjoy your stay in club-fed.

  23. Dangerous precident on Dirty Tricks? Look-Alike Websites Lure Congressional Donors · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Political 'speech' has far protection via concepts as copyright to prevent abuse. It needs to remain this way. Once you start down this path, in no time at all you wont be able to quote an opponent in political discourse without risk of being sued.

    You can also kiss parody goodbye.

    Now, back to the topic at hand, if you put up a website, regardless of content, with intent to defraud, that is a crime all by itself. We don't need more rules or laws to deal with that.

    Good luck with that. I tried it too, and got modded down ( too ). The children now run the asylum.

    I'm also sure the law is used to punish entities that they don't approve of.
