  1. Patent What? on Editing DNA For Fame and Fortune · · Score: 2

    What's to patent? DNA is clearly prior art and in public domain.

  2. As an R/C pilot myself on Near Misses Lead To More Consumer Drone Legislation · · Score: 1

    How will this keep my craft within spec? I have several that don't have GPS nor do they have onboard flight controllers, technically they are drones as defined in a dictionary.

  3. Re:Whats wrong with US society on Privately Owned Armored Trucks Raise Eyebrows After Dallas Attack · · Score: 1

    Interesting, are you saying that one group of criminals that have committed crime are less deserving of having access to weapons than another group of criminals breaking laws?

  4. Re:Whats wrong with US society on Privately Owned Armored Trucks Raise Eyebrows After Dallas Attack · · Score: 2, Informative

    Rich people don't commit crime, rob someone of $15 nonviolent only threatening violence without a weapon do 5 - 10 years, rob a few people of 15 million never see the inside of a cell.

    You also neglect to mention those areas with the highest rates already tend to have the strictest gun laws, yet still the highest incidences of gun violence.

  6. Wait What? on FCC Proposes To Extend So-Called "Obamaphone" Program To Broadband · · Score: 1

    Seems to me it's not the same, who aside from Moss sends an email when there's a fire or emergency? No you dial 911 or 999 depending on country or 0118 999 881 999 119 7253.

    Let's also be clear you could not use a phone to look at porn.

    Let's assume this is a good program, now where exactly will the funds come from for these underprivileged people to be able to afford computers? Will these be provided?

    This is the straw that broke Perl's back.

  7. Reproduce on Ask Slashdot: What Happens If We Perfect Age Reversing? · · Score: 1

    You can tell people not to reproduce, the price of reversing the aging process should be mandatory sterilization.

  8. Ok So What About on Chinese Nationals Accused of Taking SATs For Others · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The fuckers that had these people take their exams? Should there not be some type of penalty for them as well?

    I mean imagine if you'd do this and that person went on to become a CEO? Wait nevermind, I see where I went wrong, this is completely acceptable behavior for CEO's or politicians.

    Why cloud?

    If I'm building and selling an app on someones app store, I'll have already hired a hosting provider, you know the guys that were cloud before it was cloud.

    "A system the customers want?"

    Hell prior to a few years ago a cloud was in the sky, not a server in some far away place, some marketing pinhead spoke with a forked tongue to convince people they needed something they had never heard of. Promise the world, contents may differ from images. Real world results may vary.

    Gouging, storage costs are less than a dollar a gig these days, you are paying both for that space and the host providers bandwidth to support your use. Gouging.

  12. Re:Not sure why this article was written on Cloud Boom Drives Sales Boom For Physical Servers · · Score: 1

    You seem to be confusing an actual server with a re-purposed computer that corp would write off due to EOL that is re-purposed as a storage server.

    So at home while I could never afford that $24k server, I could setup my own data storage server with tons of space seeing how drives are cheap these days. You can even build in redundancy as well as hot-swap if you really wanted to.

    While the cloud provider might have better bandwidth, the non-techie may not.

    Yeah just incompetent asses left that can't be fucked to wipe their own asses.

    Our death will mean theirs.

    What good is all their money and power when there are no proles to do their dirty work? It would mean they'd have to do it.

    Apparently you don't understand why we have 3 branches of government, it's for that very purpose.

    Obama has probably put civil rights back a few decades.

    As a US citizen residing in the US, I agree. It's time other countries told the US to fuck off.

    Our government is way out of control, and has been for some time.

  20. That possibly doesn't apply to black holes, as their mass is ever changing based on what they consume.

  21. Interesting mechanism thought to limit the amount a black hole can be consumed. Current thinking is that a black hole consumes, giving off energy in the form of jets and we get a quasar. A black hole will consume, and consume and consume some more, but they eventually consume so much that the mass of the black hole and the mass of the matter they are consuming begins to force objects outside of it's pull away from it, think toilet flapper that stops water after a flush. The black hole continues to consume the matter trapped in it's gravity emitting the energy until it's consumed all of the material in it's grasp. It's then thought to go silent or inactive. It's still there waiting for material to fall into it and it'll begin feeding again. This seems plausible otherwise what would stop black holes from consuming everything?

    This is the current thinking around black holes at this time.

    No but it's bad enough pub for the school board that a legal threat over a suspension for something the student rightfully owns may need to be done.
