  1. "Well-reviewed" on Simple Emergency Generators and Radio Receivers (Video) · · Score: 1

    Unlike beta. Fuck beta.

  2. Slashdot: Dice sponsored attacks on news websites on QuakeNet: Government-Sponsored Attacks On IRC Networks · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    "Like Digg, it seems more and more legitimate businesses or non-profit organizations are being targeted by Dice Holdings, Inc. in attempts to disrupt and monitize their users. Anonymous Coward has posted a press release condemning these efforts. Quoting: 'These attacks are performed without informing the userbase and are targeted at users associated with politically motivated movements such as "FUCK BETA" While this AC does not condone or endorse and actively forbids any illegal activity on its servers we encourage discussion on all topics including political and social commentary. It is apparent now that engaging in such topics with an opinion contrary to that of Alice Hill is sufficient to make people a target for monitoring, coercion and denial of access to a decent site design. The released documents depict Dice operatives engaging in social engineering of Slashdot users to entrap themselves by encouraging the target to leak details about their location as well as wholesale attacks on the Slashdot servers hosting the network. These attacks bring down the Slashdot network entirely affecting every user on the network as well as the company hosting the server.' One of those tactics applied by Dice Holdings, Inc. is the DDOS, which (perhaps not so) coincidentally, is what their suspects are accused of. Is this irony or hypocritical?"

    atypically pissy, stubborn and reckless

    Isn't this default for most toddlers?

  4. Re:Wow... on Artificial Wombs In the Near Future? · · Score: 1

    Blame the lazy media culture we live in. A deep story about philosophy and morality and the nature of the universe and trying to predict the future? Fuck that, we need another humdrum action movie instead but with worms and sand instead of cartel lords and lone police officers.

  5. Same shit; different technology. on Salt Lake City Police To Wear Camera Glasses · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Much like other police footage, it will be impossible to get a hold of unless the police actually want it publically released. Nothing resembling Rodney King will ever be released to the public because of these glasses.

  6. This is real science. on Rare Sharing of Data Led To Results In Alzheimer's Research · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Stop trying to replace it with a capitalistic mockery of science.

  7. Re:Oakland needs to mellow out on Industrial Marijuana Farming Approved In Oakland · · Score: 1

    The two studies in question target entirely different subsets of marijuana users. The latest one showing no loss of driving ability was a study of *regular* smokers, whereas previous studies in the area have targeted occasional and quite possibly newer smokers. Don't drive high until you are used to the effects. Even then, be mindful of where you are driving and what the conditions are.

  8. Re:That can be true for anything on Gaming Without a Safety Blanket · · Score: 1

    Yes but standards change, the punters keep demanding more and these days a FPS game with no story, just violence and the occasional puzzle would likely be panned by critics and economically flop.

    Problem with the games market is that graphics and branding are ultimately what sells games and until the audience can become more sophisticated, the vast majority games never will.

    I consider people who are kneejerkingly against drugs to be "low" people.

    There's much more wrong with your post than formatting.

    Try looking in public schools.

    Oh wait, I guess you have a restraining order there already.

    Well, those women aren't interested in guys shooting up other people, period.

    Or did you already give up in that area?

  14. Re:not a problem on Experts Fear Future Will be Like Sci-Fi Movies · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm especially looking forward to the skimpy female models and the elimination of non-attractive people. Looking forward to your demise, eh?

  22. ./ed on ISPs Race to Create Two-Tiered Internet · · Score: 1

    Can't see the article, though from the summary, I have this to say:

    If the ISPs think they can just limit our usage however they want, they're sorely mistaken. People will continually bitch, piss, and moan over it. And if that doesn't do anything, they'll always have a fallback: circumvent their evil systems.

  24. Re:Whew! Safe! on Federal Court Shuts Down Pay As You Go Wireless · · Score: 1

    Cingular Wireless spokesman Mark Siegel said the injunction does not apply to the "vast majority" of Cingular's prepaid wireless customers, who use a different type of network technology. He said Cingular would also seek a stay of the injunction while it appealed the case. It has nothing to do with the actual plan, it is related to the network protocols involved, I believe. Hopefully. Being a college student, I use the cards, being a stereotypical geek who doesn't get called THAT often.
