  1. ISP EULAs on 5 Cool Wireless Reseach Projects · · Score: 4, Insightful

    This might ( most likely does ) violate most any ISP's eula. That also has to be dealt with as they want their cut too.

  2. Re:"Put in their notice" on Microsoft's Treatment of Google Defectors · · Score: 0

    Depends on the situation.

    In the case where you are going to competition ( like the story was about ) i might be less inclined to tell them. ( or make up a story ). Never know what they might do, might try to derail the new job even and really screw you.

    One time many years ago i did move to competition, but i told them it was a totally different company/industry. ( its a employers market around here )

    And there is no legal reason you have to answer as its really none of their business.

  4. Easy on Microsoft's Treatment of Google Defectors · · Score: 1

    " I would rather not divulge who my future employer is".

    The last job i left to move on/upwards i was *not* asked out of courtesy, i was wished well.

  5. Re:Democrats are socialists? on Bill Would Tie Financial Aid To Anti-Piracy Plans · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    "A true socialist believes in universal healthcare, a minimum wage that you can support a family on, maximum working week, state funded education for everyone, unions (not US style unions), equality, taxing the rich to support the poor.

    Not exactly stuff the democrats seem to care about. No, not even hillary."

    Ummm you have just described the hard core democrats, including Hillary.. haven't you been paying attention?

  6. "Put in their notice" on Microsoft's Treatment of Google Defectors · · Score: 4, Interesting

    While that is the right thing to do, why on earth would you tell your current employer where you are going next?

  7. Kaffee on An Open-Source Java Port To iPhone? · · Score: 1

    Im suprised this hasnt already been done.

  8. Re:Shared planet on MIT Reinvents Transportation With Foldable, Stackable Car · · Score: 1

    I am forced pay taxes too, for the record more then you if you dont own a car, so i suggest you get out of the way when i drive past or you and your 'green' sign will become part of the pavement that i will continue to drive on since i paid for it.

    I dont see how you get the term socialist out of what i have said. Not in the least.

  9. Typical Federal Extortion on Bill Would Tie Financial Aid To Anti-Piracy Plans · · Score: 1

    They do the same thing with federal funds for roads ( for example ).

    "if you want your citizens taxes back, you will go ahead and agree to do waht we cant constitutionally enforce in the first place" "if you dont, well we will keep the money and you will have to fund the repairs yourself. Oh, and we can mandate that you repair them. Have a nice day"

  10. Shared planet on MIT Reinvents Transportation With Foldable, Stackable Car · · Score: 1

    That also means you have to share space with my cars. Dont like it, find another part of the "shared planet" to stand on. Anyone that doesnt accept that can expect resistance, forceful if needed.

    Now, to the original commenter, i did politely say he could keep his bus, and that id WAVE as i passed, it was the other jerk that set me off and earns the M80s as i drive past his stop..

  11. When you spend *billions* on NASA Knows How To Party · · Score: 1

    What is a few hundred grand for an office party? Thats like the rest of us spending a few hundred on pitch-in when the boss tosses in free drinks.

  12. Re:Pry my car from.. on MIT Reinvents Transportation With Foldable, Stackable Car · · Score: 1

    Fine, ill toss a handfull of M80's as i drive past instead of waving. Damned socialist.

    America is about independence on all levels. 'Public transit' is about communal life and should be avoided at all costs.

  13. Or perhaps.. on Fans Cheer as Apple's iPhone Finally Hits Europe · · Score: 1

    The like the iphone, Apple and wanted to buy one?

    Just because you dont like them doesn't mean others may. ( And no, i dont have one, nor will i get one, but i can appreciate otehrs liking/wanting them )

    No thanks, car ownership is part of the independence of the American way.

  16. Protests ignored by the government on Germany Implements Sweeping Data Retention Policies · · Score: 1

    Well of course it was. Its for your safety.

  17. Simple solution on Congress Pressures DoJ With PIRATE Part II · · Score: 1

    Lest just stop all this silly incremental nonsence and jump to the 'end game': Make everyone in the country a criminal, convict them via proxy of something, then strip whatever rights they had as a citizen away since they are now convicted felons and dont get any rights.

    Then we can go ahead and have the 2nd revolution and get this segment of the 'civilization cycle' over with.

  18. lawyers on MLB Fans Who Bought DRM Videos Get Hosed · · Score: 1

    How can they lose? Even if they lose the case, they still get paid, with no refunds.

    Sort of like doctors. They "practice" on you, and if they make a mistake, you get to pay for the return trip. If i tried that as a network/pc/sql/etc guy, id be in jail.

    The percentage of bad people and the ease at which they can practice their profession.

    In the old days, you had to work to be a successful criminal. Now its prety much handed on a platter.

    I think not. He should shut his face as he really has no clue what hes talking about.
