  1. Re:Can someone explain this guy's logic to me on Electric Company Wants Monthly Fee For Solar Users · · Score: 4, Interesting

    The logic is that even if the customer isn't using the power from the electric company, they will still be using the companies lines when the meter runs backwards. With that logic, why should the power company be able to use land for their poles and such without compensation to the who don't use their electricity?

  2. Ya, right on Apple Says iPhone Jailbreaking Could Hurt Cell Towers · · Score: 5, Insightful

    If a person is going to commit a felony "cyberattacks", why the hell would they worry about the legality of jailbreaking? It's like armed bank robbers worrying that they're fully automatic rifle isn't legal.

  3. Re:Bell curve??? on California's Revised Pay-As-You-Drive Insurance Draws Continued Objections · · Score: 1

    Because Bob lives on the busiest freeway in America, drives a piece of shit that can't go more than 45 downhill. Jim on the other hand lives out in the country, never sees a car on the road, drives 30 miles a day to go to work, on the way home he hits a deer once a year and has supper. I hate Bob's.

  4. Locks only keep honest people honest on German Parliament Enacts Internet Censorship Law · · Score: 5, Insightful

    "Once the legislation passes, police officials will have to draw up a list of web sites that feature child pornography and send the list to all telecommunications companies." Might as well just make the list public knowledge. Anyone with the inclination to view the material will be able to find it easier with any list made.

  5. Re:"century-class solar minimum" on Mystery of the Missing Sunspots, Solved? · · Score: 2, Funny

    The solar cycle is eleven years long isn't it? The solar minimum started in 2001 and will switch in 2012 (probably on December 21). Coincidence, I think not.

  6. I didn't think... on Shuttle and Hubble Passing In Front of the Sun · · Score: 5, Funny

    you could get a picture of passing gas.

  7. Re:Welcome to my world on The Economist On Television Over Broadband · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I lost a lucrative job in late 2001. The first thing I cut off was the satellite tv. I learned to test DTV until the p-4 switch and have since relied on OTA and various forms of TV over DSL, especially justin.tv. My kid doesn't care or doesn't realize that we only have 2 channels on our tv.

  8. Re:5th Amendment on US District Ct. Says Defendant Must Provide Decrypted Data · · Score: 1

    I remember an article regarding a old truecypt flaw. I believe by comparing the unencrypted file against the encrypted one. http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/07/17/2043248

  9. Re:oh yizzo on Startup Threatened Into Settling Over Hyperlinking · · Score: 1

    That's just good ole Illinois, the entire state is corrupt to the bone.

  10. If it happened on South Park... on One Broken Router Takes Out Half the Internet? · · Score: 1

    it could happen anywhere.

  11. I have enough on Dutch City Fears Loss of Pornography Archive · · Score: 1

    to make Mr.Hefner blush.

  12. Re:Ripped from The Inquirer on Nvidia Is Trying To Make an x86 Chip · · Score: 5, Funny

    Maybe they cross license with each other.

  13. ATTN:and-i'm-sure-it-will-be-affordable dept on Gran Turismo 5 Prologue Spawns Real-Life Car · · Score: 1

    Affordability isn't a problem anymore. We just repo the car and let the government bail out the financier for their loss.

  14. Re:Better idea on 1,500-Ship Fleet Proposed To Fight Climate Change · · Score: 3, Funny

    You mean like Death Valley which is below sea level? Which mostly is a prehistoric salt water lake anyways. Stop making sense, it upsets the balance of power for elitists.

  15. Re:Hahahah on McCain Picks Gov. Palin As Running Mate · · Score: 1

    Because he's a liar?

  16. Re:Raises tough questions on Blogger Launches 'Google Bomb' At McCain · · Score: 0, Troll

    Actually it's a pull up for Democrats.

  17. Re:That's because.. on Motley Crue Single Does Better On Rock Band · · Score: 1

    Settle down Grandpa.

  18. Re:First Post on HD Video Editing with Blender · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Somehow I expected more from a 5 digit.

  19. Re:life mirrors art on AT&T Claims Internet to Reach Capacity in 2010 · · Score: 1

    Naw, we'll just all head for Californee.

  20. Re:That quote... on AT&T Claims Internet to Reach Capacity in 2010 · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The title he has is just another name for a lobbyist. Start a myth, get other people to believe such a myth, then get congress to force people to give them more money to pay for the myth. Seems like a standard practice.

  21. Dejavu on Do the Blind Deserve More Effort on the Web? · · Score: 1

    http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/09/09/224204 I'd reply with the same comment I made in the last featured article, and would probably get modded a troll again. Eh, so what... The internet isn't a right. If you can't use a site properly because of YOUR disability, then take your business elsewhere and let the company know that their site is crap. There, I did it.

  22. Re:Win2k?! on 11-Year-Old Becomes Network Admin for Alabama School · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I agree, the future for Windows 98 has so much more going for it.

  23. Re:And your evidence is...? on The Uncertain Future of Global Population Numbers · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Population has always been tied to economic and survival factors. When you see famine in Africa, you think why do they have more kids? They think they need more kids so that one or two might survive. It's exactly the same for most animals.

  24. Re:April Fools!? on OCZ Prepares Neural Impulse Actuator for Shipping · · Score: 1

    Well, I remember just seeing such a device for the Wii not more than a week ago on a TV news channel.

  25. The truth... on Half-Petaflop Supercomputer Deployed In Austin · · Score: 1

    Sure they will work on climate calculations.. but first on the agenda is being able to play Crysis in hi-res with all options on.
