  8. First website hosted on a handheld on Worlds First Server Hosted on a PSP · · Score: 1

    First lawsuit against slashdot for burns in a sensitive region near trouser pockets .
    I am not sure how sensible it is to promote a web-site running on a PSP on slashdot , but infertility as a result can save you thousands on a vasectomy

    Yes but the Mozilla people are not trying to charge you for a work around, They don't have a monopoly and the vulnerabilities are less worrying than MSIE vulnerabilities

  10. Re:Drugs and Booze on China's Internet Addiction Clinic · · Score: 1

    There is something totaly wrong about that comment , but I can't put my finger on it ..

    There are some similarities between Internet addiction and being a pot head (as opposed to casual users of either).

  11. Re:What's the Fuss? on EC Watching Microsoft Security Moves · · Score: 1

    In doing so they are creating a financial incentive to not fix problems .
    Products are there to fill demand , If you remove the need then you remove the demand. In that case there is no problem.

  12. Re:This is just laughable on EC Watching Microsoft Security Moves · · Score: 2, Insightful

    That's not really the issue .
    one of the issues is that they are going to be charging people to protect them from their mistakes .
    Also in doing so MS creates a situation where creating a bug free product will lose them profits .
    Not to mention the fact that they can leverage their position to gain dominance in the market and wipe out the competition

  13. Re:Postage? Kill the factory! (Mod parent up) on Pay-Per-View to Provide DVD After Viewing? · · Score: 1

    Of course you could do that with a normal DVD you purchase , you would just need to sell more copies .

  16. Re:Invasion of privacy issue on Why Do You Block Ads? · · Score: 1

    If your walking down the road , does that give the paparazzi the right to rummage through your wallet to look for information about you . If information is taken from you without explicit consent then it is generally an invasion of privacy .
    These companies are making money off of the marketing statistics they gather, without consent and in an obtrusive manner

    Copyrights already last far far too long , the fact that extensions are given is an insult . Especially in the cases of songs which have become part of the public consciousness

    They say money makes the world go round . What I would like to know is , what type of gravitational forces they are trying to achieve on planet RIAA .
    If Music be the food of love and the RIAA owns a great deal of music , then I think I am going on a diet .

  22. Re:Hm summary sun on Mystery Australian Big Cat Shot · · Score: 1

    Most Elvis and Jesus sightings however are rather transient and unreliable . However these big cat sightings follow similar patterns and do appear to fit with the characteristics of large cats .. that and the video evidence .

  23. Re:Hm summary sun on Mystery Australian Big Cat Shot · · Score: 1

    Sheep and goats , perhaps if it was just sheep then it could be an over zealous fox .. but a goat could easily kill a fox .
    not to mention the deer , stag deer at that ..
    I do enjoy Crypto-zoology but I feel the pedestrian explanation more than fits here. There are numerous illegal pets owned (was quite a fad in the 70s ) and Its reasonable to say that a fair few could have escaped or been let loose to avoid charges or because they couldn't house them anymore . How they remained mainly uneducated though is a testament to the beasts though

  24. Re:Clinton did it on Mystery Australian Big Cat Shot · · Score: 1

    He could decide to invade Australia to catch the cats .. like that time he sent several covert strike missions to some jungles as he heard there were "guerillas in the mist"

  25. Re:Hm summary sun on Mystery Australian Big Cat Shot · · Score: 1

    Sightings are evidence , how reliable they are is another matter . Several large cats have been caught on film and the films have been confirmed as genuine IE: not a fake , and the size of the animal has been shown to be considerably larger than a house cat or wild cat .

    This is not like UFO sightings , which can normally be explained as a weather balloon or ball lighting etc. .
    It is rather easy to identify a large black cat attacking a larger farm animal .Sure there will be a few people mistaken but I) would say this find corroborates the evidence slightly .
    They are most likely cats escaped from private collectors or Zoos . Nothing mystical or mythical about them .
