  1. Re:That's Great on Assange Rape Case Reopened · · Score: 1

    War crimes are more important to YOU. I'm sure the two "victims" think quite differently about the relative importance of the alleged crimes.

    Yes, until the US napalms their house. Don't worry, I'm sure the media will tell us all about the mishap.

  2. Re:How about good subject lines? on GMail Introduces Priority Inbox · · Score: 1

    I simply have Thunderbird filter my mail into different folders. When all your subscriptions are in one folder, ebay stuff in another, cronjobs, crap from your girlfriend, etc are all in their own folder, it becomes easy to get at the important stuff when you need to.

  3. Re:I hate to say it, but on Persistent Home Videoconferencing Solution? · · Score: 1

    Why is this flamebait? It's exactly what the guy explained in TFA! It's a temporary thing before he moves his whole family for a better life in the long run. Makes perfect sense to me.

  4. Re:Just when you think... on Toyota Adds External Speakers To Warn Pedestrians · · Score: 1

    Those people shouldn't be walking unaided into traffic.

  5. Re:Insurance on National Park Service Says Tech Is Enabling Stupidity · · Score: 1

    If you can pay for the heli then you should get to ride. It shouldn't matter how the fee is covered. I'd rather pay cash for my screwup then fuel some corporation.

  6. Re:I see what you did there. on Tensions Rise Between Gamers and Game Companies Over DRM · · Score: 1

    What if you've got a good connection to your opponent but a bad connection to the DRM server? Or the DRM server goes down? Game over man!

  7. Re:Recycling is Bullshit on Smart Trash Carts Tell If You Haven't Been Recycling · · Score: 1

    Why was the parent modded troll??? He's absolutely right. In fact I can go a step further, we have to PAY to give them something to sell. If we don't pay them to sell our stuff and keep all the money, we get fined for it. Total bullshit!

  8. Re:Not a mistake? on Sweden Defends Wiki Sex Case About-Face · · Score: 1

    Something is seriously wrong with our system of justice.

  9. Re:perfect bomb triggers on Germany To Roll Out ID Cards With Embedded RFID · · Score: 1

    It's a near field communication chip, which isn't easily readable from more than a few centimeters away.

    Yeah that's how it was intended, but as we all know things don't always work in the real world as they do on paper.

  10. Re:Yes and no on Is RFID Really That Scary? · · Score: 1

    I drilled a hole through mine. Makes less of a mess of the card when your done :)

  11. Re:Consumer Focus or Consumer Manipulation? on NAB, RIAA May Seek Mandate For FM Radios In Mobile Devices · · Score: 1

    I've got the SiriusXM app that makes FM radio obsolete. ...not that I've listened to FM for several years before Android even existed.

  12. Re:This is mostly true on Video Quality Matters Less If You Enjoy the Show · · Score: 1

    there's no reason to settle for bad quality video

    I can think of one; Which is hard drive space. If you don't need a TV series in HD you might as well have a lower quality version to save space for something that does demand more visual splendor.

  13. Re:And yet Hollywood... on Video Quality Matters Less If You Enjoy the Show · · Score: 1

    Exactly. For me the quality of the video is related to the content. If it's a special effects masterpiece I want to watch it in HD. The average comedy I'll watch in DVD or lower quality because it simply doesn't effect the enjoyment of the content.

  14. Re:pre-crime on Music Festival Producer Pre-Sues Bootleggers · · Score: 1

    Will Tom Cruise show up to arrest me?

    No but Christian Bale might!

  15. Re:Slashdotted to hell on How Death Rally Got Ported · · Score: 2, Funny

    Something needs to run Windows.

  16. Re:I find this hard to believe on New Toshiba Drives Wipe Data When Turned Off · · Score: 1

    You wouldn't be withholding anything though. If the feds power down your system while seizing it, then they have effectively destroyed the evidence themselves. However, you'd have to convince a jury of this fact.

  17. Re:blah on Churchill Accused of Sealing UFO Files, Fearing Public Panic · · Score: 1

    Otherwise, they're just hostile to any beliefs that don't mesh with theirs-- often including academic beliefs.

    I think that's most people in general in varying degrees. Take any group and you'll find people that go ballistic, are indifferent, and everything in between when exposed to some other belief. i.e. There are crazy religious people and there are crazy atheists.

  18. Re:Not to worry! on Heat Ray Gun Fails Final Test; Nixed From War · · Score: 1

    Well sure if you stick your ear right up to the thing then I'm sure you'll get the full 150db. At range though, I doubt it's any louder then a typical metal show.

  19. Re:Not to worry! on Heat Ray Gun Fails Final Test; Nixed From War · · Score: 1

    This is the first I've heard of these weapons causing permanent damage. Got a link?

  20. Re:Open? on Firefox Tab Candy Alpha · · Score: 1

    I don't use tabs at all. I've got a taskbar already and see no reason to have two places to look when locating a window. All of these examples just go to show how differently people use their computers. So although I won't personally have any use for this feature I'm sure many people will. The more interface options the better.

  21. Re:Moddable fighting games on PC Gamers Too Good For Consoles Gamers? · · Score: 1

    Street Fighter IV for PC has had a pretty strong mod community.
    Many sites like this one have existed since it's release.

  22. Re:Rooted, but.... on Droid X Gets Rooted · · Score: 1

    That's reason enough for me to not buy Motorola. It's a shame too because I've always been a fan of their hardware. Oh well. They'll be replaced.

  23. Re:this is Surprising? on SFLC Wants To Avoid Death by Code · · Score: 1

    You could say the same thing about water.

    Anything in moderation is typically fine.
    Anything in excess can kill you.

    The difference is, a moron on weed is less likely to die or kill someone else, then a moron on alcohol.
    IF were going to have laws to protect the morons, they should apply to the substances causing the most harm in the hands of the morons.

  24. Re:this is Surprising? on SFLC Wants To Avoid Death by Code · · Score: 1

    Nobody has ever died from smoking too much weed.
    Many people have died from drinking too much alcohol.

    How is this Troll? Don't mod down because you disagree.
