  1. Re:Brits still think they own the world... on Torrentz.eu Domain Name Suspended · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Really, from what I've been able to read so far the City of London Police "made a request" and the registrar agreed to that request.

    Not saying this is right or wrong, just questioning the fascist bit.

  2. Re:Poms are weak arseholes on UK May Kill the EU's Net Neutrality Law · · Score: 1

    "returning to find the outside of her property daubed with the words "paedo""

    Is hardly a foaming mob demanding her death. Ironic that the so called mobs were whipped up by an Australian owned newspaper.

    Plus this was fourteen years ago, but I suppose there's no pleasing a colonial convict with a chip on their shoulder.

  3. Re:Not for Nerds on What It's Like To Be the Scientific Consultant For The Big Bang Theory · · Score: 1

    Of course it's not for real nerds. Three out of the four main male characters have girlfriends.

  4. What about the displays on Will Cameras Replace Sideview Mirrors On Cars In 2018? · · Score: 1

    and how good are they going to be in sunlight?

  5. Re:Translation on London Council Dumping Windows For Chromebooks To Save £400,000 · · Score: 1

    There is no single "London" council.

    http://directory.londoncouncil... (33 in total)

    Each area on the map has it's own separate council. I would imagine the
    others will be keeping an eye on this and if successful they may adopt it.

  6. Re:Someone is against this? on EU Votes For Universal Phone Charger · · Score: 1

    reply to change moderation, how the hell does interesting turn into troll?

  7. Re:Sign the petition on Australia OKs Dumping Dredge Waste In Barrier Reef · · Score: 1

    Can't be a pom as we say arsehole, not asshole. :)

  8. Re:Launched by DWP on UK Benefits System In Deeper Trouble? · · Score: 1

    So it would be Iain Duncan Smith, for as far as I'm aware he has overall responsibility for the DWP.

  9. Re:victory against science on Anti-GMO Activists Win Victory On Hawaiian Island · · Score: 0

    Are you saying that all people in the UK are pseudoscience believers? That's not very nice to say.

    No, we just don't like the thought of Monsanto controlling our food supply.

  10. Re:Hard to believe on What Would It Cost To Build a Windows Version of the Pricey New Mac Pro? · · Score: 1

    Why do I think that the prices somebody pays buying single components has no similarity to the prices paid by a company that buys in the thousands or more

  11. Re:NSA failed to halt subprime lending, though. on NSA Says It Foiled Plot To Destroy US Economy Through Malware · · Score: 1

    "how stupid do they think we are?"

    On a scale of one to ten, eleven.

  12. Re:On Racism and Hate Speech on UK Men Arrested For Anti-Semitic Tweets After Football Game · · Score: 1

    I'll give you a clue, we're all members of the Human Race.

    I'm with the OP, racism is a bollocks term.

  13. Re:Court order on British Police Censor the Global Internet · · Score: 1

    Knowing the government IT contracts work/end up here in the UK, they are probably still using WordPerfect 4.2.

  14. Re:I wasn't born yesterday on Is the Porsche Carrera GT Too Dangerous? · · Score: 1

    "auto felch"

    Seriously?

  15. Re:Just imagine on No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service — and No Google Glass, Either · · Score: 1

    The existing crazy is fun to watch from the other side of the pond right now. :)

  16. Re:The reason this will fail isn't the technology on UK Town To Get Driverless 'Pods' Mixing With Pedestrians · · Score: 1

    You do know that the so called Boris bikes were in fact instigated by Ken Livingstone?

  17. Re:Time to shut down the WTO on Antigua Looks Closer To Legal "Piracy" of US-Copyrighted Works · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Alas, Antigua is a nobody little country that we can fucking crush just like we crushed Cuba. So there goes your risible little fantasy.

    Remind me again why you colonials had your little rebellion.

  18. Speaking as a Brit on UK Police Seize 3D-Printed 'Gun Parts,' Which Are Actually Spare Printer Parts · · Score: 5, Funny

    I love that the Greater Manchester Police site has suffered the curse of slashdot. :)

  19. Re:Rose-tinted view indeed on British NHS May Soon No Longer Offer Free Care · · Score: 2

    One patient on one day, did you take time to read the whole article?

    Not particularly great but not as terrible as the headline would like to suggest.

    And just for a little context, UK NHS A&E now handles around 21.7 million cases a year.

  20. Re:Being a Saudi on Saudi Justice: 10 Years and 2,000 Lashes For Internet Video of Naked Dancing · · Score: 3, Funny

    "Level of belief has a floor - and that is zero."

    Excuse me, my atheism goes to -11.

  21. Re:So stop using corks on Molecule In Corked Wine Plugs Up Your Nose · · Score: 1

    Oh dear, what a short memory you have.

  23. Ask Mordechai Vanunu on The Register: 4 Ways the Guardian Could Have Protected Snowden · · Score: 1

    how good The Guardian is at protecting sources.

  24. Re:CEOs are overrated on Larry Ellison Believes Apple Is Doomed · · Score: 1

    Now give us a detailed explanation of how/why it would take hours for a pre-installed Windows PC to get connected to the internet.

    My fanboy bullshit meter is reading high.

  25. Re:Who is this guy? on Peter Capaldi Unveiled As the New Star of Doctor Who · · Score: 1

    You could try clicking on his name in the summary. :)
