  1. Re:WRONG! on NSA Wiretapping Whistleblower · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Who went after CUM stains on a dress rather than Bin Laden?

    Is it too much to ask to have a 'smart' guy running the free world?

    And quit blaming Clinton for Bush's solid performance as Village Idiot.

  2. Re:I cannot condone this behavior on NSA Wiretapping Whistleblower · · Score: 1

    You are far more likely to die from so many other things then terrorists. Your paranoia is ruling your thoughts. Iraq is still far from a Democracy, many years to go. Costing a now estimated $2 Trillion by 2010. Also, Saddam has nothing to do with Terrorism. Quit hanging on to false ideas.

  3. Re:Meanwhile, ignored by the media... on NSA Wiretapping Whistleblower · · Score: 0

    And ignored by anyone with half a brain to see through the BS.

    Everything was available to stop 9/11. All the evidence, names, actions of the supposed suspects, without the need to take away Americans freedoms, yet 9/11 happened. More so out of lazinees and nothing to do with spying on americans.

  4. Re:Uh, yeah. "Spying on Americans" on NSA Wiretapping Whistleblower · · Score: 0

    We don't know who they traced, cause Bush went around such tracing.

    And if they were tracing the so called 'bad guys', then why not just use the court? Faux News also misses that point as well, but that's Faux News for ya.

  5. Re:Wiretaps without warrants, that is... on NSA Wiretapping Whistleblower · · Score: 0

    Wrong, Bush was never turned down by FISA.

    Since 1978, the court has granted about 19,000 warrants and only turned down five.

  6. There Was Nothing stopping Bush doing this legally on NSA Wiretapping Whistleblower · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Nothing was stopping Bush from doing this in a legal manner. NOTHING.

    Bush, during campaign 2004 repeatedly told the American people he would never do such a thing, even with the mis-named Patriot Act in place.

    Bush Logic: Since the Terorrists hate our freedoms, perhaps we should take away the freedom of Americans. That will show that Bin Laden.

    Bush, worst president in US History.

  7. Re:And no mention of Live? on Review: Dead or Alive 4 · · Score: 0

    He mentions online play, which would be through Live of course. Not sure what article you read, or maybe didn't read.

    I mean really? They are updating a database with songs you listen too? OMFG!!! IT's the end of the analogue world for good!!!

    Too many paranoid nerds. Don't like it, don't use it. And if they do it, sue them. This crap is getting really old on all fronts. From the Corps using it, to the site like this continually reporting it.

    SO WHAT?

  10. Like Cell Phones I don't use IM on Instant-Messaging Attacks On the Rise · · Score: 0

    IM, nope, won't use it. Did for a bit, but people knew when I was online and I didn't want that. No thanks.

    Solution solved!

    Now for my userbase who use IMings, I hope we get attacked, it will justify my removal of non-buisness software.

  11. Re:Botnets and Zombie hosts on Future Trends of Malware · · Score: 0

    Sure. But when you play internet games a lot of traffic is moving. You can't simply cut of the connection, you will lose business that way.

    Then of coure P2P, of which there are a lot of legla and legit uses for. My Bit Torrent Program runs 24.7 sharing files and sending the data, causing constant traffic. So that's just not a good way to fix this, as it limits your Internet experience.

  12. /. can be pretty weak at times on On the Matter of Slashdot Story Selection · · Score: 0

    It's like you want to fill space and thus present some of the most drab stories out there.

  13. Ohhhh Nooooo on Yahoo Launches Dashboard · · Score: 0

    And no, they won't let me stop people from loading software........ arghhhhhhhh.....

  14. I just offerdd the Boss on Insider Threat · · Score: 0

    We may have had a bit of corruption with a major Word Doc from a specific user who likes to change her themes with any theme she can d/l, this time it was Holiday stuff. Not too mention numerous search bars, smiley faces, and other garbage. Anyway, either that caused an issue with her PC or it was simply user error on her part that ruined the document. I go with user error.

    But I did offer to turn off the ability of users to install programs, but the boss said no, too big brotherish. Of which I replied, you lose time fixing things and re-doing things cause of breaks such as this.

    Well, they can still load what they want, so like someone else said below/above, it's all power play, and then I have to fix it when they break it.

  15. Re:I a little behind the times on Tivo - fill me i on TiVo Unveils Series3 HDTV DVR · · Score: 1

    The subscription service is for a few things.

    Tivo Menus for show times.

    Tivo upgraded to software, like being able to sit at work and schedule your recordings at home. Whoopity DOOO.

    I use the DirectTV TiVO package, at $4.95/Month. I don't get some of the cool features, but it's $8 less/month than TiVo Subscription.

  16. Re:I don't use Cell Phones on Your Cell Records For Sale Online, Cheap · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    So cause your GF can't show up on time, you need to call her to check up on her?

    Typical Cell Phone Conversation:

    HI. Yeah, what are you doing.

    Oh, I'm in the store.

    Really, wow, that's interesting. What are you gonna do after?

    Blah Blah Blah....
    Nobody is that important to use the obnoxious cell phone. Don't get me started on you morons that drive and use one at the same time.

    It does have HDMI. But having that doesn't make it any more HD then the component outputs..

    I am one of the last person's on the earth that doesn't use one. I hate them with a passion. Brains Tumors for all you users really would not bother me in the slightest.

    The HD Drive won't be for games, movies only.

    Where some of you picked that idea up is beyond me.

    All in one systems are sweet. 360 is not the end all be all to this new idea, it's just the start.

I leave for a week for HOLIDAY vacation, come back, and everything falls apart. It never fails. Anyway, MP3. I already told you who I will pay.

    umm, yeah, it's called on-demand, it's great! Till the Internet and TV companies find new ways to move such large amounts of data, you not buying a digital TV won't have much to do with anything.

  25. Yeah, but does it play MP3s? on 10 Million Nintendo DS Units Sold Since Launch · · Score: 1

    The answer is of course no. The PSP pricepoint is what's selling DS's. Not too mention Nins success in the handheld market. Keep in mind nin fanboys, the DS doing well says nothing about Revolution sales.
