  1. Re:I've got karma to burn... on Music Download Pricing Lawsuits Pending? · · Score: 1

    err ... but december 25th isn't holiday, it's christmas. While you can call this the "holiday" season, you can't call tomorrow anything but "fucking christmas" Not all of us are anal about holidays, its generally a display of good will. Your ass isn't

  2. Re:Terrorist activity on The Future of Tech And NSA Wiretaps · · Score: 3, Informative

    Dictionary.com defines terrorism as- "The unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons." The sort of people who drive metal stakes into trees so that any chainsaw (and more than likely person) who tries to cut down the tree get destroyed are terrorists. They are using that violence to try and influence change. Be it in the society or government, they try to influence the political workings of wherever they are. Setting it up so somebody gets viciously hurt is an attempt at intimidation. Face it, the term "eco-terrorism" has been around forever (or for quite a while, you know what I mean)

  3. Re:muddy issues on The Future of Tech And NSA Wiretaps · · Score: 3, Interesting

    err ... I don't know about you, but "groups like Greenpeace and PETA" are in my mind "prone" to terrorism. Surely not every member, and probably not 99%, but I'd like to suggest that maybe their members' likelihood of participating in terrorist-type ativites would be higher than your average person's? Sure, they might have a point on some of their crusades, but PETA is sort of considered a joke (at least where I'm from). I'm not saying that it's necesarrily right what the NSA may have (or more like definitely) did, but there is some sort of logic there. PETA may be a great organization, but it does attract the sort of radical viewpoints that can lead to that sort of activity.

  4. A step forward? on FDA Approves First Brain Stem Cell Transplant · · Score: 4, Interesting

    This could be an amazing step forward for the advance of this field of science, or an amazing step backwards for it. The question isn't whether or not it'll work, it's how it will be handled by everyone involved. It won't take much to make enemies on here!

  5. Shock anyone much? on The Tongue Twisting Tooth Microphone · · Score: 2, Funny

    I can just see it, I want to talk to somebody so I flick my tooth on (wth?) and suddenly I feel a ginormous electric shock throughout my head. My cover is blown when everyone sees my hair immediately stand on end :-

    at least thats what happens if I don't let truth get in my way ;)

  6. Re:as opposed to the NetFlix project? on Peerflix Launches P2P DVD Sharing Service · · Score: 5, Insightful

    exactly ... but it happens anyway. The real genius is a company finding a way to make money off of illegal scheming of peoples. Rock on!

  7. Re:Fornicate, couple, mate, screw, play doctor, hu on Cursing as Peephole Into Brain Architecture · · Score: 1

    And could you have said that without making it sound offensive? Without the gratuitous use of the word fuck it may actually have had some merit as a statement.

  8. Re:Free LCDs! on Video Tombstones · · Score: 1

    "That's as rediculous as me being offended at someone wasting flowers by placing them around a grave instead of in nice vases and pots where, you know, the living can enjoy them." err ... isn't that argument similar to .... wasting LCD screens on the dead? When most living don't have them?

  9. Re:You prefer the live ammo solution? IDIOT! on Riot Control Ray-Gun for Use in Iraq · · Score: 1

    ok ... so you say that what should have been done during the black rights campaign in america was to fry all of them? That putting them in severe pain while they fought for rights that should have been theirs all along was the right course of action? Cause thats what you're suggesting we do in Iraq you f***ing dipshit!

  10. Re:I liked Internet Explorer 7 the first time... on IE7 Bugs and Reviews · · Score: 1

    ahh, yes, but those features were never in IE, so IE obviously borrowed them. If you read the post, he talked about competitors, not just firefox (as he pointed out, and neither just opera (as should have been clear to those of us who branched out with the humans as opposed to the apes)

  11. Its about time! on Kevin Rose Leaving G4 to start Internet Only Show · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Its due time for the web to get a real TV show! We all know that it's the media of the future!

  12. Re:Send in the Clones! on White House: No Kerry Supporters at IATC Meeting · · Score: 1

    WE CARE, WE CARE.

    Believe me, there are plenty of us in the younger generation that are outraged. Yet for those of us that can't currently vote, how are we supposed to be heard? I would seriously like an answer to that question. Bush is screwing up the country, and we will have to pay for his damage, yet we are given no voice for or against his damage!
