  1. Who cares what those redcoats think about US? on US Senators: NSA Lies In Fact Sheets · · Score: 1

    And stay out of our domestic affairs, you snivelling Guardian douchebags from across the Pond.

  2. Can't read the Bloomberg article here in China! on Chinese Media Calls For Boycott of Cisco · · Score: 1

    ZTE is a state-owned collective capitalist venture. Huawei is connected to the highest party organ, despite being privately owned. ChiComs just want other ChiComs to buy from ChiComs, really. (Typed next to a Cisco phone in Shanghai.)

  3. I'm not going to test this on Ask Slashdot: Can I Cross US Borders With Legally Ripped Media? · · Score: 1

    with my several hundred DVDs purchased legally in China. No way. At least not ripped to my laptop. That's why man invented terabyte drives for chrissakes.

  4. Free speech is also freedom to advertise. on FTC Demands Search Engines Separate Paid Advertisements From Search Results · · Score: 1

    Big Government sucks.

  5. I hate this giant turd. on Obama Reveals Climate Change Plan · · Score: 1

    To think we have to live with this tyrant for three more years. . .

  6. Market thyself! on Ask Slashdot: Getting Hired As a Self-Taught Old Guy? · · Score: 1

    Reframe your "Sales Collateral", aka resume, social network presence, blogs, etc. to demonstrate you can solve THEIR problems. Use your grey hair for leverage, rather than be discouraged by it.

  7. Re:You have to contract / set up a firm on Ask Slashdot: Getting Hired As a Self-Taught Old Guy? · · Score: 1

    Amen!

  8. Thanks, James, I liked it on Personal Audio's James Logan Answers Your Questions · · Score: 1

    Glad James took the time to answer these. Not sure how much I agree with everything, but he didn't have to give us the time of day so thanks.

  9. "It is indeed astonishing," said physicist Oliver on Pinholes and Plastic Wrap Make Solid Walls "Transparent" To Sound · · Score: 1

    Like transducers haven't been used in the history of mankind. Like ever. Acoustics is what acoustics is, dumbass.

  10. high concept but useless on Cornell Researchers Unveil a Virtual Notary · · Score: 1

    Most of my needs for notarized docs are overseas, where chops, ribbons, big stickers, and all sorts of other bureacratic crap are necessary for validation. I hope these guys are able to get the credibility they need for this project to succeed, but am initially skeptical in light of all the big governments everywhere.

  11. Who are you kidding? on KWin Maintainer: Fanboys and Trolls Are the Cancer Killing Free Software · · Score: 1

    This comes as no surprise, since progressives have historically disdained freedom while giving lipservice to it.

  12. Nice 'stache! on Scores of Vulnerable SAP Deployments Uncovered · · Score: 1

    That dude in the photo ain't no sap.

  13. Where the fuck is Guangzho? on China Bumps US Out of First Place For Fastest Supercomptuer · · Score: 1

    If you're going to write about China, at least get your pinyin right.

  14. What goes around comes around. on Book Review: The Chinese Information War · · Score: 1

    As a U.S. American reaping the benefits of the IT outsourcing industry in China, I always have to remind myself that the U.S. also sanctions cyberwarfare against China and other nations.

  15. Leftist Hollywood Sewage on Man Of Steel Leaps Over Record With $125.1 Million To Mixed Reviews · · Score: 1

    I gave up when "Superman Returns" but not to fight for the American Way.

  16. Google's just kissing tyrannical arse on Google Aims To Cull Child Porn By Algorithm, Not Human Review · · Score: 1

    Sounds like another trojan horse guised as somehow good for society.

  17. Technological skills don't matter on Ask Slashdot: How Do You Prove an IT Manager Is Incompetent? · · Score: 1

    What matters is aligning technological solutions to the business needs. Business logic first.

  18. It'd be a lot cooler if the whole thing rotated ar on Apple Updates MacBooks and Mac Pro Desktop With Haswell, "Unified Thermal Core" · · Score: 1

    ound the fan. Or if they just got rid of the heat sink and put in a hot water pot instead.

  19. nice beach about to get nicer on Decommissioning San Onofre Nuclear Plant May Take Decades · · Score: 1

    Camped at San Onofre several times duing my early teens. Beautiful beach but the reactor was creepy.

  20. Tail wags dog? on Will Users Get a Slice of the "Big Data" Pie? · · Score: 1

    Insights create the value in Big Data, so it's absurd to predict which data might be those that create the insights. Bottom line is what you think might be valuable data might be rubbish.

  21. Used by both right and left...so what? on In France, a Showcase of What Can Go Wrong With Online Voting · · Score: -1, Troll

    Fake names voting was also used by the pro-gay-marriage mafia in the USA to put Barack Hussein Obama in power.

  22. Just a feature of Big Government healthcare. on Surgeries On Friday Are More Frequently Fatal · · Score: 1

    Unsurprising. Privatize all healthcare and providers will have to compete for quality.

  23. Taiwan proposes a "China-style block"? IRONIC! on Taiwan's IP Office Proposes Blocking Foreign Sites Infringing Copyright · · Score: 1

    Ironic because Taiwan is arguably a provincial part of China. In which case the rogue province is moving toward similar practice to that of the Commie Motherland. The ROC is also arguably a sovereign nation. In which case excluding foreign websites might also include standing up to the wannabe Commie Motherland.

  24. I miss serial ports, sort of on Ask Slashdot: Supporting "Antique" Software? · · Score: 1

    Before embedded web pages became de rigeur, configuring network equipment seemed so much more mysterious. And billable. I used to love the money received from tapping into customer's serial ports, but that's about all I miss.

  25. Snooping's not the real issue here on Hospital Resorts To Cameras To Ensure Employees Wash Hands · · Score: 1

    It's the bathroom monitoring being done from a country where folks wipe there asses with their hands. Outsourcing is ridiculous sometimes.
