  1. That's "lose", not "loose" on Police Data-Mining Done Right · · Score: 0

    That's "lose", not "loose". Please don't do that again.

  2. Re:SPPH on How to Do What You Love · · Score: 0

    "If you ask him, he'll tell you that he loved flying until the end of his career. Sure, he made some errors in judgement and would change some things about his life if he could go back, but he'll still say what he's always said -- "Do what you love to do, and then you'll do it well." Was he one of the guys flying into buildings on 9/11?

  3. Re:What I'd like know... on Chinese Ban on Wikipedia Prevents Research · · Score: 0

    You stupid idiot. You spied on China and crashed one of its planes and killed a man. They very nicely gave you your crew back. After a few stir fries and no torture! Moron! You boycott Cuba because you are idiots, and likewise North Korea because you are embarrassed to be taken to a draw. Suck on my little yellow balls!

  4. Re:"architects" on Going Deep Inside Vista's Kernel Architecture · · Score: 0

    That's because Apple is using the abortive American English version of the dictionary instead of the real thing.

  5. Re:Before the obvious tirades start.... on Australian Media 'Crooks' to Come in from the Cold · · Score: 0

    Mod the parent up.

  6. Japanese suicide rate normal, not high. on Japanese Find Robots Less Intimidating Than People · · Score: 0

    Japan's suicide rate is completely average. 25/100,000 people per year. World =20, Russia = 74, US = 20. Check nationmaster.com health statistics.

  7. Doesn't ignore DVD Region Code on VLC Media Player 0.8.4 is out · · Score: 0

    Apparently, the drive on the new powerbooks doesn't let VLC get by without asking for regions.

  8. Re:Cure for HIV. . . on Gene Found In Black Death Survivors Stops HIV · · Score: -1, Troll

    "Viruses", you ignorant cunt.

  9. Why don't terrorists target undersea cables? on Blackout Shows Net's Fragility · · Score: 0

    I was just wondering, if an outage can cause such trouble, why don't antisocial elements such as terrorists target intercontinental cables and suchlike? Of course, they won't have the resources to hit them on the seabed, but couldn't they get them where they enter the water?

  10. Re:Cobb County, GA Sex Offenders on Slashback: Summer, Sail, Sex Offenders · · Score: 0

    And I'm preparing a list of children in your area, where they live, how old they are, criminal convictions of their parents and so on. Just so the sex offenders know which houses to stay away from!

  11. OS X/Classic on Could Microsoft Buy Red Hat? · · Score: 0

    MicroSoft's Red Hat becomes OS X to MicroSoft's Windows Classic. Could they make it work?

  12. Conductors, violinists on Minority Report UI For The Military · · Score: 0

    Think about musicians who perform and practice for hours with their arms in the air. It's hell to begin with, but later on 5-7 hours a day is nothing (well, not nothing, but very doable).

  13. Two junkies in Maxim's... on Identity Theft Victim Gets Last Laugh · · Score: 0

    ...could look a little suspicious.

  14. Extraordinary rendition on DrinkOrDie Warez Trader to be Extradited to U.S. · · Score: 0

    So now Australia is making use of extraordinary rendition, too...

  15. alldvd.ru - movies, too! on Allofmp3.com Wins Court Case · · Score: 0

    Although this place is currently just doing home delivery, it would be interesting to see what the reaction of the film industry would be if it started selling movie downloads.

  16. Here's a link that works... on Bipedal Dinosaur Robot · · Score: 0
  17. What is the alloy's vapour pressure? on Experts Suggest Replacing Definition of Kilogram · · Score: 0

    Every substance has a finite vapour pressure, so couldn't the standard be losing weight through sublimation? Can't imagine it would be as much as the 50 micrograms per century, though...

  18. Solution - modify the current Safari workaround on Mozilla Drops Support for International Domains · · Score: 1, Interesting
    At the moment, Safari deals with this problem using a plug-in that pops up a warning if your address contains mixed character sets. This is fine for those who only use Latin alphabets, but would be a pain if you were accessing sites named like ??.com (where ? is a Chinese character).

    Maybe the plugin could be modified just to send up an alert only if individual words (serarated by full-stops) were comprised of mixed character sets. This way, most world addresses could be used normally, and the range of spoofable addresses reduced considerably, that is, paypal.com couldn't be spoofed, but ABC.com could (with Cyrillic ABC).

  19. My event horizon is pretty fuzzy... on Escape from the Universe · · Score: 0
    Before you get to the Black Hole...

    (...let's not discuss the worms...)

  20. How is BitWise different? on An Analysis of the Skype Protocol · · Score: 1, Interesting

    So what is the difference between BitWise (http://www.bitwisechat.com/) and Skype, apart from the fact that BW is a direct-connect chat/voice application and Skype has the potential to node your comp? Does it have the same problems? Is it lame that with BitWise you have to open a port or two?

  21. Re:Such filthy language! on Think Secret's Nick dePlume Revealed · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    My former mother-in-law was (and still is!) Korean and she never complained about my fingers.

  22. Re:I love my girlfriend... on Think Secret's Nick dePlume Revealed · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Unfortunately, you joined about six months ago and it is yet not possible to become a double-member without a sponsor, which at this point in time, you are not qualified to have.

  23. I love my girlfriend... on Think Secret's Nick dePlume Revealed · · Score: 0
    ...but I think there's something she isn't telling me...

    ...so sometimes I follow her and see where she's going and who she's talking to...

    ...bitch...

    ...I can't respect her any more if she doesn't tell me everything when I ask her...

    ...but I'm keeping my eyes open and tracking that fucking bitch's every word and move... 'cos I love her...

    ...and I'm gonna tell the whole world about that cunt's deceit!...

    ...and I finally found out what that Whore wants!!!...

    She's throwing me a surprise party!!!

  24. "Drug" their feet??? on Regional Bells Blocking Broadband Competition · · Score: 1

  25. Re:I wonder if AOL users on Judge Rejects Guilty Plea From AOL Employee · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    What IS it with American men and their anal-rape fantasies. You just mention gaol one time and they start whimpering 'butt-fuck, butt-fuck'... Still, I guess they have to deal with American women, poor bastards...
