  1. tricky area on Western Union Blocking Money Transfers to Arabs · · Score: 1

    There exists a dangerous problem with no ideal solution - if any solution at all. All this does solution does is perpetuate more hate. Next idea please.

  3. Re:guantanemo for pushing the big red button on UK Gives Go-Ahead to Gary McKinnon Extradition · · Score: 1

    I doubt he's going to rott in some prison. Most likely, they are going to cut a deal with him if he educates them in what he did/how he did it. We'll never hear about it though.

  4. the chemical compounds on Athens Breeding "Super Mosquitoes" · · Score: 1

    ".. sealing their bodies in a foil sack, tied under the chin, and collecting and distilling the sweat that poured off them. ... Logan will not divulge the names of the chemicals until they are patented."

    Obviously, the chemical compounds are balsackaswetious and ascrakadripus. Any fool could see that.

  5. Re:Minnesota State Bird on Athens Breeding "Super Mosquitoes" · · Score: 1

    > Why would a being of infinite good unleash such a horrible plague upon man?

    Because Heaven didn't want em, and Hell wouldn't take em.

  6. Re:Useful for post-war clean up too! on Networked Landmines Work Together · · Score: 1

    > An intelligent mine could be told that the war is over and told to inactivate itself.

    I don't think that will happen. After WWII was over, they pushed a lot of gear into the ocean and never turned back. People didn't want to spend another minute in the area, they just wanted to get home. The remote activation is probably just another ReallyCoolSalesPitch so the US can get away with something they said 60 years ago they wouldn't do (aka: social security and others). More likely, the remote activation will not work because "A design feature was unknowingly implemented incorrectly" and it will take warm bodies to remove this minefield network, by hand.

  7. make a million accepting money orders on Can eBay Make You Rich? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You can get ripped off very easily with them, they are nearly impossible to track, and the best the banks can usually do is tell the remitter when they've been cashed. That's it.

  8. dont use the filesystem to read it on Forensic Analysis of the Stolen VA Database · · Score: 0, Redundant

    use dump or dd. Access times wont be affected.

  9. dumbing it down? on How The Internet Works - With Tubes · · Score: 1

    I suppose it's possible that he was dumbing this down for his audience. Maybe, within a roomful of politicians, his speech was understood perfectly. 'Sending an internet' could have been just a freudian slip too. Not real comfortable if this is the level of education it takes to make laws in this country though - it would give insight to why things are so fucked up with patents and lawsuits.

  10. fud: Guess who? on Dropping Linux Helped Restore Corel Profitability · · Score: 1

    http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=00/10/02/220238

    I didn't rtfm, but was Laura Dildo mentioned in it?

  11. This is great news on Internet Explorer 7 Beta 3 Reviewed · · Score: 3, Funny

    "Internet Explorer 7.0 Beta 3 is a solid, feature-packed browser that all IE users should flock to immediately"

    I am going to switch immediately, and you should too.

  12. The kid has problems on Student Suspended Over IM Icon · · Score: 1

    So did eric harris and dylan klebold. do you suppose if this icon appeared in a columbine school district it would be considered a joke as well? Of course not. It's really a form of terrorism if you get right down to it.

  13. Re:It's not quite that simple. on MacBook Users Fix Trackpad Problem with Origami Paper · · Score: 3, Funny

    crap. I got to the part about masturbating and forgot all about the origami.

    Thank God. I feel so much better now. I hope they roll that into Defender.

  15. Re:sigh on NH Man Arrested for Videotaping Police · · Score: 1

    > There is a reason virtually all surveillance systems do not record audio data

    I wonder this applies to EFF vs. AT&T as well. I would presume once you are above the law, it does not.

  16. stupid laws based on ignorance on Spain Outlaws P2P File-Sharing · · Score: 1

    When I see laws like this put into place, I really wonder if the legal system in any country is capable of making educated decisions. What do they do, just spin a fucking bottle and throw darts to put these things into law? Does anyone making these laws realize the internet is more than bitorrent and the RIAA? This could, in effect, cover any kind of data transmission where two peers are involved. This is going to include messenging, irc, any kind of gaming, ftp, and what about email? That's basically a peer-to-peer data transfer. Nobody will be able to use the internet without breaking the law - except the crooks running the country.

  17. what a bunch of bullshit on Billions Donated to Charity · · Score: 0, Troll

    Perfect PR. And that's all it is.

  21. I've seen co-workers make amazing discoveries on The Power of Accidental Discoveries · · Score: 0

    In an instant of revelation that can only be best described as something Albert Einstein may have experienced: "Hey look!... My ass!... A hole in the ground!.. Eureka!"

  22. Re:Women and Linux - My Experience on GNOME Reaches Out to Women · · Score: 2, Funny

    In light of your incredibly keen insight, I have decided to have a sex change to do my part to increase the number of women working on open source projects. All males between the ages of 19 - 45 should be replaced by women and minorities to keep reality in step with marketing.

  25. Re:Overkill on Psychopharm Going 'Mainstream' In Schools? · · Score: 1

    "They make you able to focus, and they make typically miserable tasks interesting." And so does marijuana. They both share the same characteristic of altering the persons perception of reality, to escape reality. That's the problem.
