  1. Re:I've never text'd on OMG Did U C What U R Paying 4 Texting? · · Score: 2, Funny

    You know you're spending too much time on the net when you're supposed to laugh and instead you just say "lol" in one of various degrees of emphasis.

    You must be new here, you're supposed to let it happen naturally.

  6. Career dampner on EFF To Fight Border Agent Laptop Searches · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This is one of the reasons for me to be unwilling to accept any offer to move to the Redmond division. Out of my fundamentalist principle that my data is mine. Nobody has nothing to do with it, especially not without a warrant.
    Besides, there have been stories of officials that just want to confiscate the laptops and magically their kids get new laptops for Christmas.
    I usually carry around something like $7000 from home to work in equipment. I wouldn't take it near a US border unless the "chair-man" provided me safe passage for that.

  7. Re:Can somebody explain? on eBay's Plan to Force PayPal Rejected Down Under · · Score: 1

    "Redundant"? I thought these were supposed to be COMMENTS and not fully structured thesis-like opinions. Since when is it redundant me stating that I agree with what someone else said? What? Was someone here before saying it for me? Or was it just that someone just was too lazy to use the mod points better and decided to randomly distribute them?

    Yeah, I must be new here...

    1) it depends on the restaurant you go too
    2) lisbon is not really a good representation to Portugal even though it is the capital. Nobody likes lisbon anyway, not even the people who live there.
    I have visited the entire country, including the islands (Madeira and AÃores) and Lisbon was the only place where I felt out of place and not at home. It has nothing to do with the rest of the country. if you really want to get to know Portugal, go to Porto

  12. Re:While... on PETA Offers X-Prize for Artificial Meat · · Score: 1

    Add me as one more that doesn't find it disgusting.

    Besides, Portuguese kitchen is known as one of the most tasty and broad. Why? Because we sort of have a rule: if it's edible, we can cook it.

    If the artificial meat is edible, you can be sure there will be some portuguese chef cooking it.

    They may very well test it a bit longer and delay it a bit in the end just to make sure another vistaesque fiasco doesn't roll out.
