  1. I'm shocked on Mississippi Passes Law To Ban Traffic Light Cameras · · Score: 1

    Perhaps the only good common sense legislation to have passed in my lifetime. To bad it isn't a Federal law.

  2. Logs, what logs? on Bill Would Require ISPs, Wi-Fi Users To Keep Logs · · Score: 1

    Do I have logs? If I do, where do I get them? I've never seen these logs your talking about. I don't even have a fireplace. Why would I keep them around?

    This is nonsense. There's no friggin way the fed can expect me to keep computer logs for two years. Heck, I can't even keep a hard drive two years anymore, little loan maintain a data warehouse for some law enforcement agency. Who's going to pay for that?

    This will be treated just like most un-funded mandates handed down from congress. Ignored.

  3. This seems a little light for the judges on Student Satirist Gets 3 Months; the Judge, Likely More · · Score: 1

    They should have to serve 2 days for every single day of confinement they sentenced their victims to.

    And one day for each dollar they gained from it.

    I wonder if the people they sent to jail will have some sort of recourse available to them.

  4. That's an awesome concept on IBM Files Patent For Bullet-Dodging Bionic Armor · · Score: 1

    I hope they can get some prototypes built and fielded sometime soon.

    All other factors ignored, that's just way cool.

  5. Re:Nothing will be done to the RIAA on RIAA Lied To Congress About New Filesharing Suits · · Score: 1

    That is a problem, isn't it? That Mitch Bainwol's lawyers occupy key posts in the Justice Department.

    As I see it, it is.

    So the question needs to be asked. Is there a way to overcome that obstacle?

  6. Nothing will be done to the RIAA on RIAA Lied To Congress About New Filesharing Suits · · Score: 1

    Who would you take a case to? The DOJ?

    Oh wait, the DOJ and the RIAA are basically clones now. I'm sure this DOJ will be labeled the most corrupted political appointment in history.

  7. Re:whois nudebook.com on Facebook Nudity Policy Draws Nursing Moms' Ire · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It's just my guess that you haven't had to carry a breast pump every where you go for two-three years. Not to mention finding a place to plug it in and pum. Oh, and then the cooler for keeping the milk cold. And the heater to warm it back up. Nor all the necessary items needed to clean and sterilize the pump parts after each use. Don't forget the crying hungry child demanding instant satisfaction for their hunger pains.

    Pumping milk is an option some mothers choose. Some choose formula and some choose breast feeding. By far the easiest and most healthy option is breast feeding. IMO the most inconvenient way is to choose to pump because of all the baggage you need to haul.

    One thing is for certain. Those kids need and will be fed. Just no way around it. And on their terms, not any one elses schedule. To be offended because someone is breast feeding is ridiculous.

  8. I was wondering. on Storm Causes AT&T Outage Across Midwest · · Score: 1, Interesting

    I live in Indiana and the ATT&T trucks have been out in force.

    Mostly just sitting in their vans, next to switching stations, drinking coffee and eating doughnuts. Now it makes sense.

  9. I'm guessing the need on Prescription Handguns For the Elderly and Disabled · · Score: 1

    for a prescription would be that it appears to be illegal almost everywhere. So a prescription would be needed just like it's needed for med mary jane. I can't really see them charging it too insurance though.

  10. Re:Do they run vista? on Ethical Killing Machines · · Score: 1

    In my experiences, which isn't vast, as I have only traveled North America, Europe and the Middle East, the only country I was ever mugged in was one that tightly limits fire arm ownership.

  11. Re:Do they run vista? on Ethical Killing Machines · · Score: 1

    Still, the point stands. Less guns in general in a society means less people getting shot.

    But it leads to more people being stabbed, bludgeoned, ran over, drowned, burnt, buried and tossed over the edge.

    I'll keep my 45 and take my chances thank you.

  12. Re:Do they run vista? on Ethical Killing Machines · · Score: 1

    Soldiers are trained to follow orders. But if you believe that soldiers aren't also trained to think then you don't know anything about soldiering. Soldiering all about trust, honer, integrity, improvise, adapt and overcome. If you can't think then you won't have the requirements of being a successful soldier.

    Soldier != mindless robot

  13. Re:Transparency on Obama's Mobile Phone Records Compromised, Shared · · Score: 1

    I guess we could just ask the Chinese. They seem to have all the details down.

  14. Re:It will, and does on Scientists Create Easier Way To Embed Objects Into Video · · Score: 1

    2. Who the hell would use a reciprocating saw on bones? Dumbass would probably do more damage to themselves.

    I use a Saws-All for butchering. Makes for fast work.

  15. Re:Why the order to stay off a computer? on Palin E-mail Hacker Indicted · · Score: 1

    It's no different that a judge telling someone not to contact a person after a PPO is issued. Or telling a DUI defendant not to drink.

    He's accused of using a computer to commit a crime. It's not unreasonable for a judge to impose a condition on him of no computer use.

  16. I hope they hang him as him as high as they can. on Palin E-mail Hacker Indicted · · Score: 1

    Not too long ago someone used my email to cause all sorts of mischief. And it has me on the war path.

    To me, the crime is simple. It's the same as him breaking into her home and stealing all her opened mail. And if there was any unopened mail, it's the same as going to my mailbox and stealing all my unopened mail as well.

    Not to mention his motivation. Trying to skew an election.

    IMO ... he needs to be made an example of.

  17. Goodbye Ebay on eBay To Disallow Checks and Money Orders In US · · Score: 0, Redundant

    You won't find me bidding nor buying on Ebay again.

    I've never had a pay-pal account and this isn't going to drive me to one. I've never had a problem with sending money orders.

  18. Someone has to tell the sheep on US Warns Olympic Visitors of Chinese Cyber-Spying · · Score: 0

    That going to China is a great way to end up spied on. Not to mention a great way to end up with compromised equipment. What's the big deal with letting people know?

    At least in Red New York the taxi's aren't bugged. Well, at least most aren't.

    Soviet Amerika still freer that Red China!

  19. Re:eat my shorts slashdot !! on Canadians File Class Actions Over Incoming SMS Fees · · Score: 1

    Shooting him self defense would have been proper. No vigilantism need be involved. Not to mention that shooting someone in self defense usually means the person deserved it AND it's the proper thing to do.

  20. Re:eat my shorts slashdot !! on Canadians File Class Actions Over Incoming SMS Fees · · Score: 1

    Oh, you mean that because THIS asshat stopped at eating just one person it's fine.

    If someone on board had the means to stop the guy then they would have had a duty to do so.

    Unless of course your one of those ass hats who likes to sit and watch people get killed...

  21. Re:eat my shorts slashdot !! on Canadians File Class Actions Over Incoming SMS Fees · · Score: 1

    Actually I'm saying that if you have the means to stop a knife wielding asshat who's eating his latest victim you have a DUTY to put a stop to it to safeguard yourself and the rest of the people involved.

    To sit there and DO NOTHING because your worried about being labeled a vigilantly? Thanks, but no thanks.

  22. Re:This won't have an effect in Belgium on IBM Granted "Paper-or-Plastic?" Patent · · Score: 1

    I'd like to see you get a weeks or a months worth of provisions in that one cotton bag.

    We go to the grocery twice a month. Usually we have at least 12 bags worth of product.

  23. Re:eat my shorts slashdot !! on Canadians File Class Actions Over Incoming SMS Fees · · Score: 2

    I don't know how I that was rated as a troll. SOMEONE should have shot that guy. And no matter who shot him it would have only been proper.

    Goes to show ya, disagree -1 troll asshats on the loose.

    If it had been the US, one of the other passengers would have shot him.

    As would have only been proper!

  25. Re:eat my shorts slashdot !! on Canadians File Class Actions Over Incoming SMS Fees · · Score: 1

    I highly doubt that the children will 'be fine.' I even doubt that the adults will 'be fine.' I do however see a hefty raise in the number of counseling patients in the future.

    Besides that if it had been in the US, the cops would have shot him as would have only been proper.
