  1. Re:Mistake on The Real Story of Hacking Together the Commodore C128 · · Score: 1

    Hey, self-love is love too right?

  2. Re:Fond memories of a grand lady... on Google Doodle Remembers Computing Pioneer Grace Hopper · · Score: 1

    Hell, I wonder what she'd think about that other 360.

  3. Re:YOU STUPID IDOT on The Yin and Yang of Hour of Code & Immigration Reform · · Score: 2

    To be fair, AC's probably too busy with a Ying Yang Twins track whispering in their ear to think straight.

  4. Re:scary on Facebook Patents Inferring Income of Users · · Score: 1

    They're already inferring men's size, and always small at that ("do you want to be BIGGER?" "is your erectile dysfunction holding you back?" "when the moment is right, will your donger be ready?").

  5. An internal investigation on About 25% of HealthCare.gov Applications Have Errors · · Score: 0

    An internal investigation into the magical healthcare.gov form errors ended when they noticed several changes attributed to "Yiuf, Crazy".

  7. Re:this is exactly why commits must be code review on German Court: Open Source Project Liable For 3rd Party DRM-Busting Coding · · Score: 1

    Code review is good, but a need to waste code-review time to whack DRM moles is a symptom of a diseased legal system that supports DRM in the first place.

  8. Re:If they get this reversed, it will shut them do on Tech Companies Set To Appeal 2012 Oracle Vs. Google Ruling · · Score: 1

    Pretty much, plus those guys (or at least MS and Oracle) have the money and lobbyists to be the law. "Why are you violating this poor company's copyr--oh hi, Microsoft, didn't expect the Christmas suitcase so soon! CASE DISMISSED. /gavel"

    The overturn would be a massive win for (at least two of) those four and a(nother) loss for sensible copyright.

  9. I'm a huge fan of market competition, which is why I can't wait for a capable third manufacturer to compete against the big two.

  10. Re:DMCA Counter-notice on Copyright Takedown Requests to Google Doubled In 2013 · · Score: 1

    Even if Lamer thought that was a de facto no-go, he could've just reported the details on some tech news site like...oh I dunno...TechDirt?

  11. Re:Right Conclusion, Wrong Mechanism on Scientists Find Olfactory "Memory" Passed Between Generations In Mice · · Score: 1

    No, it's even simpler than that. All those strands of "DNA" are actually the myriad blessed semolina spawn of HNA the FSM (Peas Be Upon Him). He is not wrapped around us...He is within us, to help mice (and people) learn and advance from their dark and primitive past!

    We are all children of the glorious FSM!

  12. Re:Never underestimate the bandwidth on How the LHC Is Reviving Magnetic Tape · · Score: 1

    ...and that brand name...in cursive writing. Pimp-worthy.

  14. Re:Send them to mars on Mediterranean Sea To Possibly Become Site of Chemical Weapons Dump · · Score: 1

    I was thinking of shooting Sol with them, but I fear we'd fuck up somewhere and it'll phoenix out of the star all ISON-like, if the rocket doesn't blow up en launchpad first.

  15. Re:GNU GPL FTW on Open Source In the Datacenter: It Was Never About Innovation · · Score: 1

    Oh I'm sorry, did their license break your pilfering concentration?

    I've seen many technologies with chilling effects, but this goes way too far.

  17. Re:NY Times is the mouthpiece of the CIA on Why Bitcoin Is Doomed To Fail, In One Economist's Eyes · · Score: 1

    Meh. They were the ones who reported the CIA's deal with at&t to get call records for $millions a year, so either the NYT isn't (fully) in bed with them or they were tacitly warning at&t to cough up this year's catch Or Else(tm).

  18. Re:Google is a pile of shit on CyanogenMod Installer Removed From Google Play Store · · Score: 1

    i.e.: Ask yourself why you want to block all Google hosts and open your mind to a new solution to that same problem. One that while less evident may well be more feasible.

    I'm increasingly trying to find reasons not to block. Their G+ tracker icons and toolbar are now all over the place (even saw the toolbar on Liveleak, of all places, at one point). They've extended their Real Name harassment to anyone who logs on to GMail. (They've done it only once for me, for now, as opposed to the every-reload rain of creepy that sent me flying from YouTube, but a day or so before that incident I also had to unblock plus.google.com to even log in. My account was apparently not "upgraded" by that, but still...at least buy me dinner first.)

    "Pile of shit"? Not quite, but they're aiming for it and have already reached "damage to the internet".

  19. Re:Told Ya on Washington Post: Assange 'Unlikely To Be Prosecuted In US' · · Score: 2

    As bunches have already said here, the real issue is not whether the US prosecutes Assange, but whether the US (or any of its territories or non-annexed lackeys) punishes Assange with (or far more likely without) a Speedy And Public Trial.

    Also, given that the US clearly has no respect for privacy or whistleblower protection, that statement by DoJ sounds less like a reassurance and much more like a less-than-implicit threat to other journalists. "What happened to Assange could happen to any of you TrueCrypting notepad-hugging bastards...report on Kimye like the good serfs you are and don't be that guy."

  20. Re:Wagging the dog. on Only 25% of Yahoo Staff "Eat Their Own Dog Food" · · Score: 5, Funny

    Expecting "reasonable" from Marissa Mayer's Yahoo is like expecting "class 1 laser emission" from Marisa Kirisame's Master Spark.

  21. Re:Yeah right on LoJack To Release Tracking Devices For Consumers, Insurance, and Auto Makers · · Score: 1

    But it will save me hundreds on the car insurance rates that they'll (lo)jack up when this gets introduced!

  22. Re:The reasons many countries helped NSA on Singapore & South Korea Help NSA Tap Undersea Cables · · Score: 1

    The CIA in particular...with what they've thrown at at&t(R) and Karzai, they never seem to be bankrupt.

    ...or at least wouldn't have vaguely bragged about it on LinkedIn.

    LinkedIn, ffs...those guys would spam their moms' email if they could convince investors that it would increase their market cap. Don't trust them to hide your shadowy marketplaces either.
