    For the softness she wants and the protection you need....

  2. Say what? on NASA Solar Satellite's First Sun Images · · Score: -1, Troll

    NASA? What's 'NASA'... I think I remember seeing something about NASA in an old magazine named National Geographic or something my grandfather used to keep in the basement.... It's not something to do with guns is it? I'm pretty sure it has something to do with olden times, but that's all I know. And yes, I can appreciate that knowing old things about where we used to do stuff helps us understand about where we're all going, but wow... I guess this NASA thing used to be important and all so I'd like to learn more since it doesn't mean much today an all.

  3. Say what? on Photos of Chinese Sweatshop Used By Microsoft · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Those girls are simply on a break...seriously. They're not chained to an injection machine or forced to work without food and water. I dislike the MS beast as much as anyone, but this is just another shake-down. Is this from that British human rights activity group that gets onto Apple's case again?

  4. eh hem... on Palm WebOS Hacked Via SMS Messages · · Score: 1

    "...rudimentary HTML injection bug...."

    There are so many wrongs going on at once there. I'll just pick one, load a round in the chamber and mutter 'rudimentary' is redundant. Ok, two...'injection bug'? WTF? --- now get off my lawn!

    And if all the birds in the world flew west at the same time, the planet would spin faster.

    And if all the snakes in the world crawled east at the same time it would spin slower.

    And if I wake up from this lousy dream one more time, I'm hunting doolittle down and feeding him to the fishes...

    Speaking of meth-addled....

    I could have sworn it said 'testing the safety of l a s e r s', and I'm like - WTF??? And then I slowed down and focused and noticed it said 't a s e r s' - love being in my own episodes of SP. And no, Terrance & Phillip do NOT exist here, sorry. Just Cap'n Jack 100 :)

  10. yabut on Adobe Flash CS5 Exports Animations To HTML5 Canvas · · Score: 1

    I'm not making the connection between "...wondered why Adobe didn't spend their time building HTML5 Authoring tools rather than putting so much time/energy/money into their Flash->iPhone Apps ", and "rather rudimentary".

    Either we're being fed an admission that the ar was wrong about how Adobe spent their time, or the ar is giving 'rather rudimentary' a rather generous pass. If the ar was wrong, then maybe when the other shoe drops we'll find that the generous pass was a mistake as well and this is nothing but more blood on the saddle. In other words, nothing to see, please move along.

  11. Right... on Twitter Predicts Box Office Results · · Score: 5, Interesting

    ...until Hollywood learns how to game Twitter. Should be any minute now...

  12. Re:Motormouth failed his talking test? on Pennsylvania CISO Fired Over Talk At RSA Conference · · Score: 1, Insightful

    The 'story' here is actually more of a question.

    If the CISO treats one rule casually, what is the dolt liable to ignore next?

    I'm guessing a list of at least primary concerns wouldn't include abuse of parking privileges...

    How's that working out for you with Comcast and Shell Oil, by the way? They both accepted it when you put your foot down, did they?

    If you live in France and write crib assembly documentation for a living....you don't need Google - that's what the ad says to me.

    Google is just a bridge to content. Want to give some credit? Give it to the people that create the content.

    Didn't we just go thru this with the slime mold that grows perfect networks?

    http://science.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=10/01/22/1715229

    So if this is so hard for humans and they need new books to work it out, why can slime mold do it?

    Is there a slime mold chapter in this book or is that coming in next release?

    Whomever came up with the blinding revelation in Ponemon Institute's annual study didn't have to work too hard to arrive at that number. One google search and they took the rest of the day off...nice! Way to make tee time :)

    China was and has always firmly been among the "Third World."

    Please....where was your interpretation when China was mapping the globe - for the first time... inventing celestial navigation, gunpowder, the sundial and writing encyclopedias covering everything from bio-science, to zoology?

    China once led the planet in many ways...she wants that well-deserved mantle back and small minds like yours will matter not...once again.

  25. Re:US Intelligence almost certainly monitors TOR on Tor Users Urged To Update After Security Breach · · Score: 1

    >Hiding in plain site and blending in with the crowd makes you a lot less obviously a target than the person hiding things, regardless of what you are hiding.

    Comparing your anecdote about hiding inside a group of grocery store customers doesn't apply to the debate at hand. How does one 'hide' in the manner you propose when they elect to do it inside a (tor) group that is already flagged as being watch-worthy?

    If the group was looting the store, and you wanted to loot too, would there be any logic to stating "I'm hiding by being inside the group of looters!"? At that point you are either a tor user or you're not. If you're a tor user it is silly to claim hiding rights inside the group.

    Reset and try again, please, thanks.
