  1. Re:3 strikes and he's out on In Mississippi: 15-Year Jail Sentence For Selling Pirated Movies and Music · · Score: 1

    Go further with this and refuse to speak with police officers ever! Obviously sometimes you gotta, but keep it as short and concise as possible. Scum of the earth, if you ask me (but if you're a cop I won't respond)

  2. Romanticism on How Long Do You Want To Live? · · Score: 1

    I think that there is a certain romanticism to people saying they're okay with death. I think that if you're cool with dying at 80, or 120, or whatever, that really you just don't grasp the enormity of it.

  3. penny smart pound stupid on Twitter Prepared To Name Users · · Score: 1

    So Giggs fucked some tramp and he's trying to keep it a secret to keep his name clean. Does he know that he may be forever tying his name to the erosion of liberty the world over? Penny smart pound stupid.

  4. Just a thought on Microsoft: One In 14 Downloads Is Malicious · · Score: 2

    "IE's SmartScreen has blocked more than 1.5 billion Web and download attacks" How many of these were actually factually malicious? Perhaps that is why people are ignoring the warnings? You can block (nearly?) 100% of malware by simply being Amish

  5. Here's an idea on 23,000 File Sharers Targeted In Latest Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    Someone make a computer virus that downloads popular movies without the victim knowing. Then their list of copyright violators can no longer be reliable.

  6. Re:Effectiveness on Chinese iPad Factory Staff Forced To Sign 'No Suicide' Pledge · · Score: 1

    Agree. If you're on fire, there's little anybody can say to keep you from jumping into the swimming pool.

  7. Re:Don't know why - but I like it on Why Does the US Cling To Imperial Measurements? · · Score: 1

    Being Canadian, I'm fairly metric-centric, but I agree with you that the kilometre does seem too short, the cm too small. I've never been able to put my finger on why though, just a feeling. A half-litre of beer feels perfect though, for some reason. Is 355ml an imperial measure? Cans of beer feel too small!

  8. Re:You always root for your side on FPS Gaming and the 'Just-World Hypothesis' · · Score: 1

    Liverpool FC is the greatest football club in the history of the world. Manchester United ARE (as good as) Nazis.

  9. Re:anti-korean on FPS Gaming and the 'Just-World Hypothesis' · · Score: 1

    Not to be too edgy, but the idiot you refer to probably can't tell/doesn't care if you're n.korean, s.korean, or Japanese.

  10. Re:Units on Fukushima Radiation Levels High, But Leak Plugged · · Score: 1

    per fort-night

  11. Re:Just replace the word "information" with "porn" on Why Paywalls Are Good, But NYT's Is Flawed · · Score: 1

    What about information like Scientific studies? Or even practical info like how to eat a balanced diet? Should I have to pay to find out how much folate scientists think I need on a daily basis? Excuse me for being self-interested.

  12. Re:Testable! on Large Hadron Collider is a Time Machine? · · Score: 1

    o_O

  13. Re:the reasoning of an 8-year old child on IsoHunt To Court: Google Is the Bigger Problem · · Score: 1

    You're missing the point. They're still arguing over whether or not what they've done is illegal. Paramount to your nephew calling his little sister "Beach," getting in trouble, and arguing that it's a nickname that even the teacher uses when referring to her. Isohunt: What I did is not illegal. Court: Yes it was, this is what you did. Isohunt: No, that is not illegal. See, Google does it and you don't prosecute them. Precedent for its legality.

  14. Why a stash? on Cocaine Found At Kennedy Space Center · · Score: 1

    Why stash it? Why not keep it in your pocket? Car? Home? Vick's Inhaler? In a bag inside a peanut-butter sandwich? Nah..! The ceiling of the lunch room is the best. Ps. Who turns in cocaine? Someone who gets caught with it?

  15. Re:The science of better Guinness on The Science of Stout Beer · · Score: 1

    I've never tried Nigerian Guiness, but the Leffe we get up here in the exact middle of Canada tastes more like rotten fruit than beer.

  16. Re:rewind 40 years on NASA Buys 12 Seats On Soyuz · · Score: 1

    Supporting sports teams isn't about sense so much as LIVERPOOL CRUSHING MAN UNITED last Sunday! WOOOOO SUCK IT

  17. Re:Value? on NASA Buys 12 Seats On Soyuz · · Score: 1

    Manned space travel is a waste. Definitely need to stop with that nonsense and switch to robots for at least a decade.

  18. Re:The science of better Guinness on The Science of Stout Beer · · Score: 1

    Who isn't Irish? Guiness is good. Hell, beer is good. They're all good! (Except Leffe..)

  19. Re:Insurance policy exclusions will be the BIG SCA on Prepare For Massive Wave of Earthquake Scams · · Score: 1

    Insurance companies pay when they are legally obligated to pay. They do not pay when they are not legally obligated to do so, obviously. So if the damage is a result of tsunami, and the insured does not have tsunami coverage, the insurance company is not going to pay them just because their situation is unfortunate. Why would they? Out of some sort of altruistic compassion for humanity? That'd last a year or two before the whole things becomes completely unsustainable. Inject as much outrage and normative bullshit into the discussion as you like, at the end of the day it is a numbers game. If you bet me that the Giants win with a 14 point spread, and the Giants win with a 7 point spread, I ain't paying you, and I don't care if you just bet me your child's college tuition. Now if you want to win on a 7 point spread, you better bet on a 7 point spread. There's just no guarantee that I'm going to take that bet. Ya dig? Yes, I am an insurance adjuster.

  20. Re:dnrtfa on DIY Laser Pistol Shoot 1MW Blasts · · Score: 1

    =) Cheeky Any idea of its balloon popping practical effective range?

  21. dnrtfa on DIY Laser Pistol Shoot 1MW Blasts · · Score: 2

    What sort of range do you imagine this things gets?

  22. noob question on Android Devices Are Hives of License Violations · · Score: 1

    Pardon my lack of understanding, but if this software is free, why do I have to tell you when I'm using it? Why do you care if I tell you vs not?

  23. How come on The Great Typo Hunt · · Score: 1

    How come when someone can't speak English, I tolerate it. But when I butcher a foreign word, we spend a good minute teaching me how to pronounce it correctly. Isn't my mispronunciation just my accent? How come I'm not allowed to have an accent? Perhaps it's because I'm a racist (tongue in cheek plzzz) Oops Pow Surprise

  24. maybe on What Shall We Do With the Moon Once We Get There? · · Score: 1

    send robots up there to carve a flag into the visible surface?

  25. Maybe I listen to too much rap music... on Bloggers Who Risked All In Burma · · Score: 1

    But if someone tries to murder me, I'ma murder them back. Why don't the people of Burma just start murdering the police?
