    Speed cameras are designed to take high res images of VERY fast objects... they would easily catch something going 250mph..

  2. I think its good on Miyamoto Says Wind Waker Was Boring · · Score: 1

    Its a good thing that developers admit where they went wrong in the past. It shows that they've identified mistakes and won't make them again, it reassures the community that the company is full of real people and that they actually care about the gameplay and not just profits.

    Next up: Derek Smart! Admit it you bastard!!!

    See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Soviet_Russia

  12. Re:Logic? on Possible Taxes For Broadband Users · · Score: 1

    ahh so its a case of: 1)Watch people use internet 2)Try stopping them with laws and controls that don't end up working, turning the masses against you and also end up empowering super corporations such as MPAA and RIAA. Then try to tax them for it! 3)??? 4)Profit!

  13. Logic? on Possible Taxes For Broadband Users · · Score: 3, Insightful

    At what point does the government need money from me because I'm on a privately run network? The internet is not owned or operated or maintained by any nation, so I don't see why we should pay taxes. (exceptions of course being things like govt. websites, but they are a different case)

  14. Re:Farce on BitTorrent: Sysadmins to face the music · · Score: 1

    That's US law. This was in Australia. Might be different? (I'm not certain of how much of copyright law is international, but I'm fairly sure that proceedure and protocol varies)

  15. Congrats... on No PodBuddy for iPod lovers · · Score: 1

    Congratulations DLO, your asshole patent manipulation is now stuck up on the most viewed tech website on earth.
    Why, wouldn't it also be the "tech" types who would buy your products?
    Another business that has learned the hard way about being socially & ethically responsible.

  16. Farce on BitTorrent: Sysadmins to face the music · · Score: 5, Informative

    They were never delivered legal documents. Only sent emails and (apparently) there was a phonecall. Why would you comply with emails? Remember that site a while back that made phony cease&desist emails and sent them from hotmail/fake accounts to see how many ISP's complied? Everyone booed the ISP's who went along with it. This ISP ignores the emails and now they're getting sued. I wouldn't blame them. Why would they act on a legal matter if they weren't sent any legal instruction/documents? The whole thing is stupid.

  18. Re:Dark Ages on Archiving Digital History at the NARA · · Score: 0

    I agree with the "you never know [so save everything]" ideology. One day we'll all kill each other somehow, and there'll be a nice cache of info for aliens to find a thousand years later. That'd be about all its useful for though ;) ...oh, and in Soviet Russia, data stores YOU!

  19. Logic... on Felony Charges For H.S. Hacking · · Score: 0

    Ok, so all the students know the password, and when they use it the school complains? The students were given the machines to increase their proficiency, and when they did, the school complains? Looks like the person handing out the notebooks had no clue about how to admin the whole scheme and it backfired; now the students are the ones getting the blame for the lax security and systesms set up by the school. Its like a bank complaining about being robbed when they left all their cash blowing around the city streets. The school should be the ones in the most trouble, not the students.
