  1. Re:What's their motive? on GhostShell Hackers Release Data From Exploiting NASA, FBI, ESA · · Score: 1

    Ooo, yeah, lets go back to the era of polio, typhoid and smallpox! People forget about stuff like that.

    ask your +90 elders.

    I did that once. She muttered something about not having "all them uppity coloreds" and "a good woman knew her place."

    Now get back to your factory shift, kid, or it's the coal mine for you! You fail that, and it's medical experiments for the lot of you.

    Sure, why not.

    Are they crazy? Do they not read the Cheezburger site on Vladurday?

    So you want one set of sociopaths to approve the other set of sociopaths. Awesome. Oh, wait, that's pretty much the system in both directions already. Oops.

    I just don't understand this trust in government in anyone out of their mid teen years.

    And no, ideologues, that doesn't mean I wuv the po wittle corporations.

  6. List needs more pony on Bennett's Whimsi-Geek Gift Guide For 2012 · · Score: 1

    I used to get stupid geek crap like this all the time, but then I drove away all my family and friends with massive personality disorders. Now my house is clean and clutter free! Yay!

  7. Re:All power comes at a price on How Yucca Mountain Was Killed · · Score: 1

    I thought it was depleted. though. ;-)

  8. Re:um... moste waste is not spent fuel rods... on How Yucca Mountain Was Killed · · Score: 1

    Quite a few folks, me included, *did* decry the spending under Bush. Then again, being clear thinkers, we recognize that, you know, that Congress things has some say in it, too.

    I'm not a conservative, but a lot of the conservative magazines and other outlets did beat up on Bush for it. It just didn't get widely reported.

  9. Derpy on Golden Spike Working On Private Moon Flights · · Score: 3, Funny

    it's not clear when the first lunar flight would be launched

    Never. That clear enough for you?

    And now... OooooooooOOOOOO

    "Fly me to the moon
    Let me play among the stars
    Let me see what spring is like
    On a, Jupiter and Mars
    In other words, hold my hand
    In other words, baby, kiss me"

    Hell, other types of uranium reactors can burn existing "waste" fuel. The whole waste issue is almost entirely political.

    Humanity is complete animal garbage. Every day is Opposite Day, and nothing with *ever* be done correctly.

    But, you know, yay Red, yay Blue!

    Ah well. Administration probably needed the money for loan guarantees on the new High Electrolyte Unicorn power plant.

  11. Slime? Really? on Hagfish Slime Could Make Super-Strong Clothes · · Score: 1

    What happened to hemp? I could support hemp.

    Having the ability to create a 20 liter cloud of slime and tie themselves in knots, hagfish have always been one of my favorite deep-sea denizens.

    Your fetishes are not really appropriate for a public forum.

  12. Old tech on Tour the Turn of the Century Electrotherapy Museum (Video) · · Score: 1

    Pfft. Electricity.

    Orgone energy is where it's at today. The universal life energy comes to us free from the screaming void of space to help us control weather and cure many private male issues.

  13. email vs voice on Ask Slashdot: Do You Still Need a Phone At Your Desk? · · Score: 1

    Maybe I'm just in a weird place, but I regularly et voice mails with long rambling messages on technical topics that would be infinitely better served by a focused, well composed email with an attached diagram or two. Age does not seem to be a factor, oddly enough.

  14. ZOMG! on Thorium Fuel Has Proliferation Risk · · Score: 1

    There's risk??? That's a four letter word! Kill it with fire!

    (Meanwhile uranium reactors are around *because* they could make bomb material.)

  16. Re:Obama has a solution: on Report Warns That Censorship Will Not Stop Terrorism · · Score: 1

    Probably because it's not an "Obama thing" so much as it's a "humanity thing".

    Everybody poops, as the learned tome says.

  17. Re:W-W-W-What??? on Report Warns That Censorship Will Not Stop Terrorism · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You cannot stop an idea except by discrediting it.

    Judging by the number of popular discredited ideas, that doesn't stop them, either.
