    That is why controlled burns have become a favored tool of wildfire management.

  2. Re:I'm the only one smelling BS here? on How the NSA Is Harming America's Economy · · Score: 1

    Wow, you get a lot out of pure speculation.

  5. Re:If the story is true on Snowden Used Social Engineering To Get Classified Documents · · Score: 1

    If you think this little of slashdot what the fuck are you doing here? Trolling?
    Snowden is a hero you are not qualified to lick the boots of, even after you have finished licking the boots of the NSA.

  6. Re:LOL Tesla on Third Tesla Fire Means Feds To Begin Review · · Score: 1

    Several years ago on my way back from the Sierras I watched a car burn, it had pulled over off the road onto a field of dry grass.

  7. Here's an idea: on French Court Orders Google To Block Pictures of Ex-F1 Chief Mosley · · Score: 2

    every request for Google from a french ip address results in a 'the web page you requested could not be found.' message.
    The French will be shitting into their snails before you can say 'Les Cargo'!

  8. Re:As an outsider. on Healthcare.gov Official Resigns, Website Still a Disaster · · Score: -1

    I don't see his statement as 'republican talking points', especially in light of the fact that Republicans did everything in their power to make the law as bad as possible. If it is a shitty site due to shitty law, I see that as a result of Republican intransigence.

  9. Re:Stop the trickle already on NSA Broke Into Links Between Google, Yahoo Datacenters · · Score: 1

    How easily does your software handle an empty list?

  10. It all makes perfect sense! on Cable Lobbyist Tom Wheeler Confirmed As New FCC Chief · · Score: 2

  12. No one should have that much money. on Report: Fisker Automotive Sold To Hong Kong Billionaire Richard Li · · Score: -1

    A system that allows this concentration of resources is a failure. We need something new.

  13. Re:Trust on Snowden Says He Took No Secret Files To Russia · · Score: 1

    Thanks for verifying the statement "some nerds are idiots", though I already knew it was true.

  14. Re:A better idea on NSA Director Keith Alexander Is Reportedly Stepping Down · · Score: 1

    Bullshit. On the other hand, I like the argument that Obama = Bush.

  15. Re:Summary says it all on China's State Press Calls For 'Building a De-Americanized World' · · Score: 1

    You know, these pesky little details, like the U.S. habitually spending way more than it actually takes in tax earnings

    You know of course that overspending has nothing to do with it. If overspending was the true complaint then Bush would have never been allowed to double the debt from $5 trillion to $10 trillion. Overspending is just a handle to rest their true complaint on: they will never accept a democrat as president. As soon as conservatives are back in power *shuddar* it will be back to 'deficits don't matter', remember?
