  1. Lawyers on German Court Issues Injunction Against iPhone & iPad · · Score: 1

    I bet lawyers worldwide are rubbing their hands together in greed.

  2. Misleading (JPY Prices) on Discouraging Playstation Vita Details · · Score: 1

    If you translate the JPY prices to USD then these cards obviously seem very expensive with the current status of the Japanese Yen. Wait until it's released in the US and Europe, then we'll see.

  3. Not a Geek on Using a Tablet As Your Primary Computer · · Score: 1

    A Geek could never use a tablet as his primary computer. i.e. you're not a Geek like me and your posts don't belong here. I wonder who put this through.

  4. Misleading Summary on Airport Security: Thermal Lie-Detectors, Cloned Sniffer Dogs · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The summary is completely misleading.

    According to TFA, thermal-lie detection, the dog clone, the bluetooth passenger tracking and the behavioral detection officers are in no way linked to IATA's vision of the checkpoint of the future. They are just independent developments in transport security but nonetheless irrelevant to IATA.

    For everybody's reference IATA is owned and funded by private airline companies. They are not government funded in any way IATA's website

  5. Am I the only one? on Bradley Manning's Court Date Finally Set · · Score: 1

    Am I the only person in the world who thinks Bradley Manning is a fictitious character? I kinda think he doesn't exist and I'm curious as to the source of these news.

  6. I don't like this one bit on Researchers Locate Flaw In Bitcoin Protocol · · Score: 2

    So we need some new method or entity to help move bitcoin from one place to another? Perhaps something like.. banks and insurance companies and derivatives etc? I don't like where this is headed :)

  7. nonsense on Chevy Volt Fire Prompts Safety Investigation For EV Batteries · · Score: 1

    Lol? We all know that gasoline cars catch fire at the slightest! Happens on movies all the time!

  8. Bill o'Reilly on Astronomers Find Unusual Star · · Score: 1

    I bet he could explain it.

  9. R2 unit on Robot Helps Quadriplegic Scratch an Itch · · Score: 4, Funny

    Ever since PR2 came out, the standard R2 units just aren't in demand anymore.

  10. Re:bring on the trolls on Mass Psychosis In the USA? · · Score: 1

    Foreign? There's no such thing as nations on the internet you imbecile. That's the one good thing about it. And the fact that I can call you an imbecile from the safety my mom's basement.

  11. Netbooks never really existed on Who Killed the Netbook? · · Score: 1

    Netbooks only existed in your marketing brainwashed mind.

  12. Re:America = world terrorist on International Monetary Fund Hit By Cyber Attack · · Score: 1

    Nobody can drop you in a war zone. You guys volunteer for it. And from what I hear it's just a bunch of kids trying to pay of their student loan. Another failure of the US system. "You want to work for corporate America? Fine, but first you need an education. Oh you can't afford it? No problem Wall street will give you a loan!! What, you can't pay off your loan? No problem, join the military and we'll sort it for you" So the way I see it is you have to join the military and kill people in order to get a job.

  13. Re:This is how you signal ICBM capability on Iran Plans To Put a Monkey Into Space · · Score: 1

    Yes, and your point is what? The US already has that kind of technology. The US should disarm it's missiles to avoid a cold war. Makes sense, right?

  14. Re:IOW, the Chinese on International Monetary Fund Hit By Cyber Attack · · Score: 1

    Yes yes, keep telling yourselves that. If it helps you sleep at night. Please, keep pretending like nothing's wrong.

    Regarding the freedom of speech thing, according to the Reporters Without Borders 2010 Press Freedom Index, the United States is currently 20th in the world in terms of press freedom.
    Censorship in the US.

  15. Re:IOW, the Chinese on International Monetary Fund Hit By Cyber Attack · · Score: 1

    At last, the bully country is scared of somebody. The tides are turning.

    I for one welcome our new communist overlords. How much worse than the US reign can it be?

  16. penalize on Skype Crashes and Burns In Worldwide Outage · · Score: 1

    Shouldn't there be a way to penalize users for submitting stupid unchecked stories without facts or references? (even in the linked article)

  17. IIPA = Not US Government on 13 Countries On US "Priority Watch List" For Copyright Piracy · · Score: 1

    The IIPA is NOT the US Government. It's a private organization, hence the title of the story is misleading.

    A quote from their website: "IIPA is a private sector coalition, formed in 1984, of trade associations representing U.S. copyright-based industries..."

  18. Re:I think FPS help more than driving games on Are Gamers Safer Drivers? · · Score: 1

    I absolutely agree.

  19. Re:Feed Your Need For Proper Dynamics on Are Gamers Safer Drivers? · · Score: 1

    In japan. In the yearly tax you pay for owning a vehicle, a small amount is included to insure the passengers of the other vehicle in case of injury but not their vehicle itself. If you want insurance for damages to their vehicle then you make a contract with an insurace company.

  20. 25 year old gaming experience on Are Gamers Safer Drivers? · · Score: 1

    I ve been playing games for 25 years and I can say with certainty that they have had a very positive impact on my reflexes. I rarely drop items (catch them mid air) and can track multiple objects at the same time without much difficulty . I think it's all thanks to gaming.

  21. Symantec Spam on Spam Levels Lowest Since 2009 · · Score: 1

    Symantec Spam has now reached an all time high on ./

  22. Technology? on Inception, The Social Network, TS3 Get Oscar Noms · · Score: 1

    How is this news for Geeks? I don't get it.

  23. Re:All Fear NK! on North Korean Domain Names Return To the Internet · · Score: 1

    Oh, I get it now, your an idiot and an apologist, so long it reinforces your hate for the "west".

    Ad hominem attacks only serve to prove my point so if you want to reply please attack my arguments, not me in person.

    My views on Pol Pot? He was a madman. I can't see the relevance of your question. Are you asking if it was right for the US to invade Vietnam? of course not.

    So let me get this straight. I believe the US is a tyrannical state run by corporations. Does that mean I should send my troops over and establish a regime to my liking? lol.

  24. Re:All Fear NK! on North Korean Domain Names Return To the Internet · · Score: 1

    Chomsky is irrelevant to north Korea. I'm invoking Chomsky so that perhaps Americans can wake up from their slumber! That's the only reason.

  25. Re:All Fear NK! on North Korean Domain Names Return To the Internet · · Score: 1

    Fair enough. So the west instead of passing judgement and mocking, as the parent did, should just fix itself and the others will follow suit. That's a promise.
