  2. Well.... on Google Adds Satellite Imagery to Maps · · Score: 0
    Appearently, it looks like there's some censorship going on, The Capitol (and surrounding vicinities) appear as a pixelated blob in the heart of DC and the Hill.

  3. Once again, it's always the same on Survey Reveals Americans Support Blog Censorship · · Score: 0

    Most people rush head on into censorship without even reviewing the thing they are censoring. Right now, I'm doing the history of book banning. Alot of my research shows that some people who ban books haven't read them and just hear they should be banned by word of mouth. Others only read a offensive page and not the entire book. So the same could apply blogs. They could search the indivual pages (depends on the blog) on Google, see it, get ticked off and then decide to censor it. This is another example of how stupid people can be.

  4. Re:Adaptive Optics on Hope for Hubble · · Score: 0

    Yes, but JWST is just a infrafred telescope. Hubble covered a wider range from near infrared into visible to ultraviolet. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble_Telescope#Futu re

  5. What the SE should stand for on MS Plans Low-Cost Windows for Brazil · · Score: 0
    Not Starter Edition, but Shit Edition.

    Do they really expect to woo over Brazil with a cheap Windows verison. As you know "cheap = bad". It will crash as soon as soon as it boots.

  6. Do we really need to know on Microsoft Releases Eight Security Updates · · Score: 0

    It's stupid to cover security updates from Microsoft, we all know as soon as they relase more problems just sprout up and then they release more updates.

  7. Yeah on MS Plans Low-Cost Windows for Brazil · · Score: 0
    They afraid they don't want open source taking over a South American country. They've already got North America under their thumbs and I'm betting they want the same for South America.

    Annnnnnnd. The rest of the world.

  10. Re:What I'd like to know is... on RIAA Cracks Down on Internet2 File Sharing · · Score: 0

    Hmm. Now I feel like going to UMass! I mean I can't afford MIT. But wow, a state university has the most users, well then again, it's public so it accepts way more people than MIT and Harvard (not everyone has the money or the smarts!)

  14. Re:Music? Television on Xbox 2 To Be Unveiled on MTV May 12 · · Score: 1

    Thank god, the other consoles don't. And thank god they don't release Windows on MTV or for that fact Linux. Of course, most the retarded teenage girls would be like "Whatz Linix?!?"

  19. Maybe the time wasn't right on Voom No More · · Score: 1

  21. It was run by a cable company on Voom No More · · Score: 1
    PrimeStar was also, what happened that? It shut down.

    Ironically, me and my Scottish friend were discussing this yesterday

  22. Retarded on ICANN Officially Approves .jobs and .travel TLD's · · Score: 1
    .jobs, what's this for, a whole bunch of job listings websites?

    .travel, hmmm and is meant for .travel agencies or for tourism boards... ok maybe this one could serve a purpose.

    .xxx is stupid, it serves no point other than pointing out it's smut.

    .asia, why the fuck does Asia need it's own TLD? Is it because there so huge? Or are asian countries domains too overcrowed

    .mail why not just get better spam filters?

    .mobi just points out it's a mobile phone company

    .tel, there's two versions, you expect to type out a number that fucking long? The second, it seems the same, I dunno. Maybe this will serve some use.

    .post, do postal authorites really need there own website, well then again. USPS gets an advantage. So I guess so.

    .cat, why does a language get a domain, what next? .eng, .esp? Also, they could be abused by cat owners.

    These are my opinons, these tlds stink!!! Even the W3 agress! http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/TLD
  23. I wonder.... on CherryOS Goes Open Source · · Score: 1

    If they'll merge with PearPC, of course then again, it's a rip so it won't really do much.
