  1. Re:Scary on Word Vulnerability Compromised US State Dept. · · Score: 1

    Exactly. One would think people would be smarter about security in something as high as the state department.

  2. Uhhh...U.S. Constitution? on Montana Says No to Real ID, Passes Law to Deny It · · Score: 1

    Doesn't the Constitution provide that a state's law cannot interfere with a federal law, and then didn't a Supreme Court case reinforce this interpretation of the Constitution? Thus how is this legal?

  3. Re:Obvious on Why are Websites Still Forcing People to Use IE? · · Score: 1

    Exactly my thoughts. Too lazy to much sure *beyond reasonable doubt* that their code is compatible with Firefox or too stupid to realize the growing problem implied by such a limitation..

  4. Re:Just Like The M16 on U.S. Soldiers Hate New High-Tech Gear · · Score: 1

    moreover, one could design a stick to kill a person. by your argument, it would an assault rifle. its just a weapon (in this case, depending on the material and style used, it could be a sword or a spear, etc).

  5. Re:Just Like The M16 on U.S. Soldiers Hate New High-Tech Gear · · Score: 1

    something designed to kill is a weapon, not an assault weapon. an assault weapon (in my terms) is designed to kill/neutralize over a wide range of situations generally such as attacking a target as opposed to what I call a defense weapon which one can only use to defend their selves or others generally in close range, a.k.a. a small to medium pistol (such as the one used in the recent Virgina Tech Shooting).

  8. Re:Auteurs on Solving DRM in the BitTorrent Age · · Score: 1

    I for one would never see a movie like a book. There's just too many people involved for it be "one person's masterpiece" or the likes. In a book, you might have an author, a handful of people who provide him with feedback, and a number of editors. In a movie, you've got a producer, screenwriters, a developer, someone who created the whole idea, and then makeup artists who decide what everyone should look like, color "artists", various other designers, cameramen, and actors. That would be like denying the fact that they too have great influence on the creative process of a movie.

  10. Re:The way I see it... on Are TV Pharmaceutical Ads Damaging? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I know many people with sensitive stomachs and other digestive conditions who are not overweight and do not eat too much yet still frequent heartburn.

  11. Re:The right to privacy is underrated on The Privacy Candidate · · Score: 1

    I shall now, if Clinton continues advocating a return privacy, I may very well decide to vote for her (I'm currently leaning towards Obama).

  12. Re:Honesty.... on Microsoft PR Paying to "Correct" Wikipedia · · Score: 1

    Here's my question: why haven't there been any anti-trust suits against Microsoft? They look like a monopoly to me.

  13. Re:What about parental responsibility? on MySpace Sued by Families of Online Predator Victims · · Score: 1

    On a similar note, how about them Darwin Awards?...of course I draw the line when the stupid ones stop removing their own genes from the genome and start removing those others... however in evolution theory endangering their children is actually equivalent...

    Notice the aim is looking at business, not your anecdotal stories about your fictional grandmother (I dont know if she exists, nor do I care).
    Come on, we all know he has to have a grandmother. Unless he's a mutant...
  15. Making data easier to access... on New Plan In UK For "Big Brother" Database · · Score: 1

    ...is a double bladed sword. This means it will also be easier for the bad guys to steal all your personal information. (Assuming you don't think your government is one of the bad guys; and a bigger assumption being that a government entity can accomplish this.)

  16. Re:There may not be shirts... on Is A Bad Attitude Damaging The IT Profession? · · Score: 1

    Also, reading further in the article (ok, I admit I read them sometimes), the users sometimes are stupid...usually are actually. We can't help if one of 'em is too stupid to know he's supposed to be stupid.

  17. There may not be shirts... on Is A Bad Attitude Damaging The IT Profession? · · Score: 1

    Then how come we don't have any cases of blind or illiterate people suing because they couldn't read the warning in the first place?

  22. Re:US Airspace full enough already on UFOs In the News · · Score: 1

    Lets not forget these things (the identified things) are moving around 150-300 mph, sometimes faster but usually not when in a holding pattern. "Nearby (hazardous) traffic" is that which is within like ten miles in normal flight (if my memory serves me correctly). You don't want an unregulated, unresponsive "aircraft" in the middle of one of the country's busiest airports.

    They intended for it to freeze, just like Hirohito intended to get nuked.
