  1. Re:Good on Australian PM Has Parody Site Shut Down · · Score: 3, Insightful

    We'd all do better off without such hateful speech.

    Hey, at least yours have a house. Think of all the homeless kids & families that would be locked out of government-provided-broadband-at-home!

    Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Try to teach a man to fish, and he'll bitch that he doesn't learn well on an empty stomach.

    Judge: What's the password/key?

    You: I'm not gonna tell you.

    Encryption might keep out the hoods, but it ain't gonna stop a judge's order.

    Don't quite follow you here.

    How has your anti-US rant/analogy added to the discussion of irresponsible western media reporting on China?

    That's right, it hasn't. You just used the opportunity to take a little shit on this topic. Good, now go wipe.

    So it's OK (legal) to kill people (Kurds), just as long as it's your own citizens? How racist and spineless of you!

    kids today start some of the most influential work in computing.

    And some of them believe they know more than they do, and proceed to write articles from that false pedestal.

    We are all aware of the existence of the kid genius. And most of us have experienced the strong connection between reality and the 18 year old knows it all stereotype.

    I'll just chime in with the above poster and point out the other possible reading of your logic, "Like advertisers, virus writers go for maximum exposure."

    This isn't on par with the Sony DRM flap, but who knows where it might have gone had it been left unchecked...

  25. Re:Apologies for dupe on Glimpses of How it's made, 6 Minute Manufacturing · · Score: 1

    Leaks!? A leak is what your faucet does. When I look and see Firefox's memory allocation well over 300mb, the image of a breaking dam comes to mind. Mozilla's little finger plugging Dutchboy is dead, drowned by a digital tsunami.
