  1. Re:Light Sensor... on Mark Zuckerberg Tapes Over His Webcam. Should You? (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    10:30 IS when I arrive, you insensitive clod.

  2. Don't think so on Anonymous Posts Pornography To Hijacked ISIS Twitter Accounts (softpedia.com) · · Score: 2

    There are a few things that the Islamic State fear. One is women

    Well they've certainly conquered *that* phobia, because they seem to be able to get close enough to commit rape on an industrial scale.

    So if I kick you the balls, and eventually it stops hurting, that's OK? And so I can kick you in the balls again?

    Look the reality is that Linux on the desktop maybe accounts for less than 2% of all desktops and laptops.

    And at a certain point in time, Hitler had only pinched a little bit of Czechoslovakia.

  7. Re:But... on Sorry, But Lasers Aren't Taking You To Mars Anytime Soon · · Score: 1

    2+2 == 4 not because of some fundamental principle of the Universe, but because that's how we've defined integers. You can find lots of physical cases where you take two X, add another two X, and don't get four X. Suppose you have two droplets of water on a rubber sheet.

    2 + 2 for pure numbers and 2 + 2 for arbitrary groupings are not the same thing, and you know it. Or if you don't know it, you're an idiot.

  8. Assuming you're from the USA, which isn't much of a stretch, your whole country is based on a revolution that misappropriated Good King George's property, namely you and the land you're standing on.

    Care to explain why that revolution is morally right and a subsequent one would be wrong?

  9. Ouija board, or knock twice for yes?

    Shit, really?

    I thought you colonial bounders all had guns to stop this kind of shit happening?

  11. Wrong. Indentured servants are paid, though usually not very much. But they can't quit.

    The guns are already smarter than some of the Sherriffs.

    I guess you're one of them?

    We were pretty nifty with bows and arrows, back in the olden days.

  15. Various methods exist... on Ask Slashdot: How To Avoid Becoming a Complacent Software Developer? · · Score: 5, Funny

    ... just make sure you have an alibi. Ideally, make it look like an accident - but don't try anything too clever. Otherwise some cop will get a gut feeling or a hunch and the minute he's officially taken off the case you're toast.

  16. Re:Recent claims by whom? on Study: Chimpanzees Have Evolved To Kill Each Other · · Score: 1

    Evolution only works if children die.

    Wrong. It can also work by preventing them being born in the first place.

    In fact, if you think about if for two seconds, children dying is a subset of that.

    That's because we haven't had a war where WMD were used on a large scale.

    1945, you say? Firecrackers by modern standards.

    Is this not what the line "to the shores of tripoliiiiiiii" in the song refers to? IIRC the US navy then went and kicked the towelheads' asses. And frankly, they were asking for it.

    For every successful *scientist* there are a ten thousand angry never-have-beens who flip burgers and sweep floors regretting the time and the chances lost forever.

    Sure, some of the above would require some work to make comfortable, but it can be done even with today's technology
