  1. they should reverse who pays more on University Proposes Tuition Based On Major · · Score: 1

    if your major has an average starting salary is really low then you should have to pay a really high tuition. Encourage majors where they can feed themselves.

  2. Get a gaming PC on 77 Million Accounts Stolen From Playstation Network · · Score: 1

    sony is never going to do what is in the users interest.

  3. Re:why put up with this? Get a Gaming PC on PSN Outage Continues, Console Hack Claimed To Be Responsible · · Score: 1

    your ps3 is a brick right now. it is obvious that sony is never going to do what is in your interest. They own the network, they own your hardware, they own the games you try to run. As many crap stories as I hear about consoles you have to ask why continue to take the abuse and just chuck the console in the trash.

  4. why put up with this? Get a Gaming PC on PSN Outage Continues, Console Hack Claimed To Be Responsible · · Score: 0

    sony is obviously not going to do what is in your interest.

  5. coal is a continous ongoing disaster on Chernobyl 25th Anniversary · · Score: 0

    Coal poisons and it is sad it is not getting any press.

  6. is the home owner suing the police on Bizarre Porn Raid Underscores Wi-Fi Privacy Risks · · Score: 1

    it is obvious the police did not do an adequate job to determine the home owner needed to be arrested and traumatized the man and his family.

  7. how about the US spending real money instead on US Funding Five Game-Changing Energy Projects · · Score: 1

    just end the oil subsidies and use that for these projects. It would actually be a significant amount instead of this pittance.

  8. Re:Glad someone is challenging this on Speed Tickets Challenged Based On Timestamped Photos · · Score: 1

    you should be able to face your accuser, that is the actual problem.

  9. have your own servers on Amazon Outage Shows Limits of Failover 'Zones' · · Score: 4, Insightful

    or use a completely different company for redundancy. I think that is the lesson here.

  10. microsoft has never heard of a website? on Microsoft Counts Down To XP Death · · Score: 1

    instead of making app that is useless for most of the people that can actually run it they should have just made a website. It would have been cheaper too. No wonder people are starting to run from microsoft products.

  11. Re:Really? on Microsoft Counts Down To XP Death · · Score: 1

    if microsoft provided a free upgrade then you might have a comparison.

  12. forced commercials on Why Has Blu-ray Failed To Catch Hold? · · Score: 2

    really, you just got my money does blu-ray really have to shove it down your throat with forcing you to watch something too? That and I had a free blu-ray that did not work and would play some director picture-in-picture with no way to turn it off. And finally, turn on the player to watch something and it updates. Blu-ray manufactures and movie companies act like they don't like money.

  13. of course, no problems if you don't buy sony on Used Game Penalty Escalates With SOCOM 4 · · Score: 1

    and with all the crap sony is pulling suing people and hobbling the ps3 why would you?

  14. Re:Let's look on Need a Receipt On Taxes? The Federal Tax Receipt · · Score: 1

    most defense expenditures are done with special appropriations that are not included in the budget. Military spending is the biggest ponzi scheme.

  15. corporate welfare expenditure? on Need a Receipt On Taxes? The Federal Tax Receipt · · Score: 1

    where is the section that shows how much is being squandered giving subsidies to giant corporations?

  16. Re:petty people on Who Killed Spotify? · · Score: 1

    spotify is refusing to compete with no draconian limits and play as much as you want. If they want to do well they will have to, that is the reality of the market.

  17. Steam shows a successful model on Who Killed Spotify? · · Score: 1

    Have huge sales all the time at rock bottom prices and you will see a increase in sales even when prices return to list price. Everyone knows they can make as many copies of the mp3 files as they want for no cost so music companies are practicing bad business.

  18. Re:quit putting it on the US Taxpayer on Senator Wants to Tax Internet Shopping · · Score: 1

    the damage to the economy would be a lot more and they already have a lot of deadbeat corps that are paying no taxes to go after.

  19. Re:quit putting it on the US Taxpayer on Senator Wants to Tax Internet Shopping · · Score: 1

    we are talking about real money with companies not paying their fair share and getting unfair preferential treatment.

  20. quit putting it on the US Taxpayer on Senator Wants to Tax Internet Shopping · · Score: 5, Insightful

    if they want more revenue how about they go after real corporations like GE, Exxon, and Bank of America that cook their books to pay no taxes. They have profits so where is the tax revenue.

  21. Re:Angry at Amazon on Senator Wants to Tax Internet Shopping · · Score: 2

    durbin trying to screw Amazon and them not taking it is Amazon's Fault? They are only going after Amazon because Illinois has mismanaged their finances so badly.

  23. are they really that desparate? on The Hobbit Filming at 48fps · · Score: 1

  24. Re:And some people still wonder why... on Japan Raises Nuclear Plant Crisis Severity To 7 · · Score: 1

    they would rather let coal and oil lead them around by the nose and let them be killed slowly by smog and oil spills and fight unnecessary wars?
