  2. Re:Hey, geeks, let's play this game!! on Chinese Blogs, Netizens React To the Tibet Issue · · Score: 1

    all those "chinese looking people" in areas surrounding "mainland china" look chinese and talk with the same funny nasal voice, ergo, they are all chinese and have been so for generations; it's only those bloody imperial dogs - england, portugese, and french wankers followed by those indians that divided that one country to rule the world into so many divisions!!

  3. Re:ludite lawyers on Lawyers Would Rather Fly Than Download PGP · · Score: 1

    maybe the lawyer knows pgp exists. maybe he knows how pgp is subject to us government export restrictions. maybe he knows his clients are "restricted users" according to these export restrictions. maybe he knows how the us government can snoop into any data they want to.

  5. did you see on 2005 Foot In Mouth Awards · · Score: 1, Interesting

    as technology improves, the number of FIM quotes too increase! Compare this with the classic quotes like "640K ought to be enough for anybody".
    they don't make funny quotes like that any more.

    What if I grow my own? or smoke only free-range pot?

  7. Re:Imagine if a trend started... on Fighting RIAA Without an Attorney · · Score: -1, Troll

    In India, only lawyers can practice in a court of law, and lawyers are those who are admitted to a bar are laywers; non-lawyers cannot cannot legally engage in the practice of law!

  10. Re:UC Wins Contract to Run Los Alamos on UC Wins Contract to Run Los Alamos · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Not surprising, since some universities are as big as small towns & some towns are dependent on universities alone, and universities usually have an efficient bureaucracy in place, and tend to have balanced budgets.

  11. how soon? on Britain to log all vehicle movement · · Score: 1

    England has come up with a lot of things that have been copied and implemented everywhere - experiments with anarchy, revolutions, modern armed forces, postal system, police system, metros, special forces, mixed economy, wearing flags as underwear, etc. how soon does the rest of the world catch this?

  12. design on Microsoft Hires GUI 'Design Guru' · · Score: 1

    "form follows function" does this mean that they have frozen their functions that they are now concentrating on forms?

  13. No on Testing Drugs on India's Poor · · Score: 1

    no troubles about human testing, but there has to be a limit on what actually can be tested, and have to be clear on the side effects. I don't think they would go up to the levels of Nazi/Japanese WW2 testing, but still some regulation has to be in place.

    "Rattenberg was built between the hill to the south and the Inn River to the north starting in the 1300s for protection against marauders. Back then, lack of sunshine was a small price to pay for relative security.
    But as such dangers diminished, dozens more settlements sprang up. Some, like Kramsach, are just half a mile away and all enjoy a few hours of sun on a clear winter's day."


    Just another case of Europeans hanging on to mediaeval lifestyle. There were some towns in Italy evacuated due to mudslides in the 50s and 70s, why can't do that instead of spending 6000 per person? It could atleast be used for unemployment benefits!

  16. earlier on Austrian Town Sees the Light · · Score: 1, Funny

    There was this project about a decade back - to light up scandinavian countries (or is it Greenland), to bring light the same way. The environmentalists raised a stink. Googled, but could not find it; Can anyone throw light on that one?

    this doesn't look like the first time Americans want to decide European policies!

  23. Re:camera phones on Two Megapixel Cameraphone Shootout · · Score: 1, Interesting

    we are not talking about people who would be carrying around their cameras all around (even though they might become very small to fit in the pocket), this is for people who would like to capture that interesting scene which would disappear by the time you switch on your camera and aim at that. Also, why to carry many devices when one would do the job as well?

  24. Re:Asia on Two New Linux Phones to Ship in Japan · · Score: 1

    >I agree that there should be some distinctions between various parts of Asia. But >dividing it into two would be just silly.

    Well, I did not want to go that far into time! I just wanted differentiation between the 'Asia' we talk about: We already have Central Asia (Mongolia would be here!), Orient (Br.) (or Asia (Am.)) - we would have Indo-China, Japan, China, et al, and Middle-east for any country from Afghanistan to Israel/Palestein-Turkey.

  25. Asia on Two New Linux Phones to Ship in Japan · · Score: 1

    > Linux seems to be doing well in Asia

    Seriously, some distinction has to be made between Asia and South Asia (Orient and Asia, for centuries).
