  1. Re:Cyber-terror Unlikely on America's War on the Web · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Well of course its unlikely, but that isnt what the US goverment is trying to do anyway.

    its not about protecting us from the bad guys, its about gaining more control over the people.

    It is sad that most people cant see it for what it is, and falls for the excuses.

  2. Re:Sour Grapes, yet again. on On Apple vs Apple · · Score: 0, Troll

    How original.

  3. Go read it before you post, m'kay? on On Apple vs Apple · · Score: 0, Troll

    1 - The fact they dont have beatles tunes on itunes does not negate the concept i was talking about.
    2 - If i have to read the f-ing article instead of the summary, then the summary is bad, not my fault.
    3 - goto hell.

    Moron.

    Phew

  6. Re:Sour Grapes, yet again. on On Apple vs Apple · · Score: 0, Troll

    Who cares. My point stands. Dont like it, read elsewhere.

  7. Re:Sour Grapes, yet again. on On Apple vs Apple · · Score: 1

    Well, that should change then.

  8. Sour Grapes, yet again. on On Apple vs Apple · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Until they create their own music i dont see a problem with apple computer selling music devices ( and itunes ).

    They really are not *in* the music business, so they arent hurting apple records, so they should just shut up and appreciate the extra sales they get via beatles songs on itunes.

    Just another bloodsucker standing in line to screw the big guy.

  9. Hidden Agenda? on Super-ATMs Being Rolled Out · · Score: 1

    Perhaps if you make getting cash just too hard for the average joe, you can wean the public off of those little anonymous bills.

    Once you do, you can more easily track the money flow, to catch those pesky terrorists.

  10. Choose another career on Choosing Careers in Technology? · · Score: 1

    We have too many 'technology' people now, in this slowly diminishing 'market'. We are bursting at the seams and dont need any more, including you.

    Go be a cop or something.

  11. Its not just the device, stupid on Apple to Face iPod Clone Attack · · Score: 1

    If it was, then the ipod would never have made it at all, and we would not be talking about macintoshes..

    A good part of why apple is still around is the total customer expirence, ( sales, support ) and the higher quality of their devices.

    A cheap clone is just that, a cheap clone. Will people buy them? Sure, people are cheap. Will it destroy apple? No, of course not.

  12. Begin the next cycle of the upgrade treadmill on Windows Vista Capable Machines Coming · · Score: 1

    At least home users can 'just say no', corporate buyers that fall for the MOLP agreement scam, are screwed.

  13. Re:STOP THE PAIN on Microsoft Blogger Robert Scoble Goes to Google · · Score: 1

    So many of us agree.... t

  14. 4/1 on UK Government to Shut Down GSM Networks · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Why are we even here.. this gets old fast.

    And pink? Dear god.. hell of a color to wake up to in the morning.

  15. Supported Dual boot?!?!?! on Increased Bandwidth Irrelevant? · · Score: 1

    Well, i guess thats one more nail in their coffin. Jobs is setout to wreck the company and make a few bucks along the way. Hes still pissed he was ousted and wants revenge.

    Grr..

  16. Re:What is next in their agenda? on Pr0n's Effect On Society · · Score: 1

    Sounds like you didnt live in chicago back then.

  17. Re:What is next in their agenda? on Pr0n's Effect On Society · · Score: 1

    I guess you dont recognize sarcasm..

  18. Addiction always destructive? on Pr0n's Effect On Society · · Score: 1

    I have to disagree. Sure, often it is, but not always.

  19. What is next in their agenda? on Pr0n's Effect On Society · · Score: 1

    Will they next say Booze is bad for us and draft a constitutional amendment to ban it?

  20. You miss the goal on 34 ISPs Subpoenaed By U.S. Government · · Score: 1

    This isn't about markets, or protecting children. Its not even about porn.. Its all about control of the population. Plain and simple.

    Anything else is an excuse to get people accepting of it.

  21. Tired old DVR? on Replacing Your Tired Old DVR · · Score: 1

    Talk about the new society of 'throwaway'.. Geesh.

  22. Mandatory Content Filtering on 34 ISPs Subpoenaed By U.S. Government · · Score: 3, Interesting

    This is where we are headed.

    Once this point is reached, does that mean all content providers lose their 'common carrier' status and are now liable?

  23. Well DUH on Lenovo Under U.S. Probe for Spying · · Score: 1

    This is an example of why you dont outsource ( to another country ) a major infrastructure.. ( this also goes for war materials, oil, food, etc )

    Even if the country is friendly today, that can change tomorrow and severely compromise your nation's security.

    Its nice to see people are starting to wake up about this.

    Did i just timewarp into Nazi Germany or something?

  25. Its not about "pirates" on DRM and the Myth of the Analog Hole · · Score: 2, Insightful
