  1. Re:GoDaddy on GoDaddy Backs SOPA · · Score: 1

    I actually was clueless to how bad they were. I've used them in the past simply as registrars, never hosted anything with them though.

    Knowing their stance on this, I'll never be using them again.

    It's not the size of your homepage, it's how you use it.

    I'd mod you up if I had points. 13 years is a drop in the bucket. Of that 13 years 10 or more 60 hours a week, how much of that was Windows computing, how much Linux? How much coding? How much playing games, updating Facebook and Twatter? How much was actual work?

    You may need to explain the "Bottom"onium reference for those without BBC. I have interwebs so I'm very familiar with Eddie and Richie.

    Even if they never find anything the money wasn't wasted. The scientific community has already learned so much from experiments with the device.

    Switzerland called, he's bitching about how much the energy the LHC is consuming is costing.

    I looked for mine, 1234 wasn't on the list.

    Shit! Now I have to change it. I'll just add a 5.

  8. Re:Led on Domestic Surveillance Drones On the Rise · · Score: 1

    Because the scientific method only works if you are trying to falsify things, it doesn't work if you are trying to prove things

    You lost any and all credibility right there with that statement.

    Scientific method is creating a hypothesis and then carrying out tests to prove or disprove your assumption, this is how science works.

  9. Re:Led on Domestic Surveillance Drones On the Rise · · Score: 1

    "Innocent until proven guilty" still translates into you are guilty enough to be locked up until we find otherwise. That doesn't sound like you are given the benefit of the doubt. It's more like double speak. If you were truly thought to be innocent you would not be detained at all.

    In truth "innocent until proven guilty" means you are really guilty until you can prove your innocence.

    Miss the point much?

    They are wasting tax dollars on this. In 6 years 10,000 hours of flight time, they have caught fewer than 5,000 illegal immigrants and 238 drug smugglers, as opposed to 327,577 illegals caught at another border and within a years time.

    Attach a battery terminal to one prong of an led, attach the other terminal to a resistor, attach the resistor to the unused prong of the led, you now have a flashing led.

    The US needs judges like this.

  13. I laugh... on Is Overclocking Over? · · Score: 1

    mostly when people say they are getting a Core i7 and are going to overclock it. I ask them why. Mind you if you are trying to squeeze every bit of life out of hardware before you absolutely have to upgrade then by all means, the worst case is you will have to upgrade a bit sooner. BTW I do have my current CPU oc'd it's only a Core 2 Duo E8400 currently oc'd to 4 ghz on air and very stable.

    Yes let's chase after Google for having a monopoly on a free search, yet let people have no other choices in areas where it really counts, I'm thinking squarely of power companies, there's only one in my area there used to be two, I'm thinking high speed internet providers, think of all those who have one choice of high speed provider. I'm thinking Microsoft as well while I'm at it.

    Why not though it's not like we don't have anything else that this money could be used for.

    Is anyone else sick of the US Government trying to censor everything now?

  17. Did I miss something? on US Chamber of Commerce Infiltrated By Chinese Hackers · · Score: 1

    Simply because the IP traces back to China is not necessarily a "Chinese sanctioned" hack. It could very well be a Chinese server has been compromised from somewhere else in the world.

    Should the Chinese government be looking to hack for secrets, I doubt they would choose the Chamber of Commerce for their target, much less leave the tracks leading right back home to them.

    FUD is FUD.

    Good to know I'm not the only one that saw that copy. It was actually better than watching the finished product. At least there were more laughs.
