  17. Re:Used car salesmen use the same thing on Cellular Repo Man · · Score: 1

    So, you're suggesting that people with these devices never turn their car off?

    Note that I'm not endorsing this idea; just bringing it to the table. I have no strong feelings on the matter. If someone decided to implement my idea, then yes, it would preclude them from ever turning their car off.

    Or rent it as a taxi, which would get you in trouble in some municipalities.

    Prudence would call for anyone considering this to check local regulations before applying for a taxi/livery permit. I disclaim responsibility for the actions of any would-be hobbyist taxi-drivers, taxi-driving enthusiasts, etcetera. I proposed this as one possibility for offsetting the cost of the gasoline needed to your car 24/7... (and perhaps earn a modest profit during these hard times).

    How 'bout just put a new starter on it and call it good?

    No question, your solution is certainly a good one. However, I was presenting easy hacks for any jackass that can start & drive a car; yours is a hard(ware) hack, which requires (at the very least,) expertise in operating a hood release and the use of hand tool(s) in a proper fashion.

  18. Why is this a conundrum? on NASA In Colbert Conundrum Over Space Station · · Score: 1

    NASA shouldn't have solicited the public if they weren't prepared to observe the result; it's not as though something like "FUCK CHINA" or "WET SNATCH" had been chosen.

    I'd predict that giving the module a popular name would buy NASA some goodwill with the TV-watching demographic, and some public/media interest. If it turns out to be a PR disaster, NASA should rename the module at that time.

    Finally, IMO Colbert has earned recognition for the free publicity he's already given to NASA.

  21. Re:So everybody is happy now? on ACLU Wins, No Sexting Charges For NJ Teens · · Score: 1

    So everybody is happy now?

    Hell, no! IMO, the victims should be paid massive restitution out of this sick-fuck prosecutor's pocket, plus disbarment, child abuse charges, maybe deportation to Iran. As for the rest of the children locked up in PA by corrupt judges, those private child-prisons needs to be shuttered or taken over by the state DOC, the kids released & compensated, and those judges locked up for child abuse and corruption.

  22. Re:Reasoning? on ACLU Wins, No Sexting Charges For NJ Teens · · Score: 1

    [...] temporary restraining order [...]

    Hmm... If the victims can get a regular 100-yard TRO against this animal, even if a trial occurs, the DA will be forced to leave the courtroom when the defense is presenting. When the prosecution presents, the girls will have to leave but their counsel will still hear (and be able to refute) his lunatic rants.

    Failing that, the girls could plead "insanity of the prosecution..." If a doctor can find that the DA was insane at the time he filed charges, the case victims could be compensated and the DA remanded to the care of a maximum-security mental hospital.

  23. Re:Cool... on EA Releases DRM License Deactivation Tool · · Score: 1

    It is sad. Which is why there should be legislation that makes them read the bills.

    Just use the a gimmick similar to that employed in one notable EULA: Offer legislators coupon-codes redeemable for free girls, cocaine and cash prizes, randomly embedded in each printed copy of every bill. A fixed count or dollar-value per bill would encourage concise bills, encouraging examination by both legislators and constituents.
