  1. Re:Earth's magnetic field on NASA Data Suggests Solar Magnetic Field About To Flip · · Score: 1

    Totally unrelated. What do you mean by "slated" anyway. Does it qualify If it will happen in 1000 years?

  2. Re:Couldn't it be "both"? on Paper: Evolution Favors Cooperation Over Selfishness · · Score: 2

    Pure communism ever happened? Wasn't it always a selfish leader or group that exploited the rest of the people?

  3. Re:Turn off phone in subway. on Moscow Subway To Use Special Devices To Read Data On Passengers' Phones · · Score: 1, Funny

    You can't. The NSA already developed a way to keep mobiles active even when they are turned off.

  4. I fail to see how is this different today :) You may want to pretend that your vote counts somewhere, but in fact, i doubt it.

  5. Re:Welcome to 2002! on Direct3D 9 Comes To Linux, Implemented Over Mesa/Gallium3D · · Score: 1

    I'm fine with Skyrim, thanks.

  6. Re:Biased, much? on Maybe Steve Ballmer Doesn't Deserve the Hate · · Score: 1

    There ARE paid shills,.astroturf, etc for sure. They could have used that money for developing a working product instead.

  7. Re:Open Source... on Sent To Jail Because of a Software Bug · · Score: 1

    Yes, you are correct. But the trouble is that i never used the word 'Postmaster'. In short i think blaming me using that word is a wee bit disingenuous.

  8. Re:Open Source... on Sent To Jail Because of a Software Bug · · Score: 3, Insightful

    A really wise post office chief would have done that audit before the first lawsuit.

  9. Re:because he is lying on According To YouGov Poll, Snowden Support Declining Among Americans · · Score: 2

    If companies knew ALL backdoors to their products, there would be far fewer backdoors. Because companies are generally not dicks. Agreed?
    NSA is 'the backdoor company'. They work on finding backdoors. It is not surprising a company doesn't know about a backdoor/vulnerability in their product while NSA does.

  10. Re:Sarcasm detector on Tech Companies Looking Into Sarcasm Detection · · Score: 1

    Why do you need a spam detector. Can't you find spam without it?

  11. Re:That doesn't make it right on Snowden: NSA Spying On EU Diplomats and Administrators · · Score: 1

    The problem with this spying on your allies is not exactly vigilance (while it is also mildly repulsive). The problem is that you guys found ways to use 'useless' financial information. You effectively already wage a war on your allies like Britain and the EU.

  12. Re:Good God, get a clue. on Boston Marathon Bomber Charged With Using 'Weapon of Mass Destruction' · · Score: 1

    To the mosquito it is a mosquito spray :D

  13. Re:So much for... on Teenage League of Legends Player Jailed For Months For Facebook Joke · · Score: 1

    Yet they failed to catch the Boston bombers. Talking nonsense on the net is easier to find out than catching someone buying and building bombs.

  14. Re:Guy deserves getting beaten on The Return of Surveillance Camera Man · · Score: 1

    No, his argument is strong. This guy should be beaten, then he would reconsider trolling.

  15. Re:It's incredible to me on Bill Regulating 3D Printed Guns Announced In NYC · · Score: 1

    No need to be compromised. Being on TOR automatically puts you on the suspicious list.

  16. Re:Insurance Policy? on Hacker Releases 1.7TB Treasure Trove of Gaming Info · · Score: 1

    So he is safe. Released, the info gets spread on the interweb. No way to destroy it.

  17. Re:Violence on Google Glass Banned At Google Shareholder Meeting · · Score: 1

    > If you don't want to be recorded, don't go outside, because that's THE ONLY WAY it's not going to happen.

    Breaking the camera is also working.

  18. just 2d? on Seeing Atomic Bonds Before and After Reactions · · Score: 1

    I wonder if the same imaging is possible in 3d, that would be really awesome in research.

  19. Re:Copyright? on GMO Wheat Found Growing Wild In Oregon, Japan Suspends Import From U.S. · · Score: 1

    150k per grain is just damn too high!

  20. Re:You know what's coming on Advanced Biological Computer Developed · · Score: 1

    What about unlimited lifespan beings?

  21. Re:Good to see intelligence rewarded for once. on Curiosity Rewarded: Florida Teen Heading to Space Camp, Not Jail · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but killing with a BB gun is fine there.

  22. Re:Should have been punished, but not charged on Curiosity Rewarded: Florida Teen Heading to Space Camp, Not Jail · · Score: 1

    Exploding hydrogen is more than a popping balloon. It can burn you. Also it generates toxic dihydrogen monoxide. In a closed quarter that could be lethal if inhaled.

  23. Re:sometimes it takes a crisis on Spain's Extremadura Starts Move To GNU/Linux, Open Source · · Score: 1

    Then they don't have any say to support either GPL or non-GPL. A user needs no source code afterall.

  24. Re:Belief system on Belief In God Correlates With Better Mental Health Treatment Outcomes · · Score: 1

    From so many prayers, one or two random (miraculous) healing is statistically insignificant. These events get more publicity than cases where all prayers fail, that's why you feel there is a higher power in works.

  25. Re:Whats the point? on New Console Always-Online Requirements and You · · Score: 1

    Consoles are typically weaker. Except if the PC is old. Consoles are for people who can't afford 1-2 year old computers but want to play FPS games.
