  1. Real Indecency on Decency Group Says "$#*!" Is Indecent · · Score: 0

    CBS intentionally chose to insert an expletive into the actual name of a show, and, despite its claim that the word will be bleeped, it is just CBS’ latest demonstration of its contempt for families and the public.

    They used the "actual name" of the Twitter feed and book, so the PTC apparently doesn't feel like even knowing the name of what they are planning to "wage an unrelenting campaign" about. I think that this kind of ignorance is indecent.

  2. Well... on ACLU Sues To Protect Your Right To Swear · · Score: 0

    FREEDOM OF SPEECH, FUCK YEAH!

  3. Thinkwell.com on Help Me Get My Math Back? · · Score: 0

    I have used Thinkwell's math videos since Precalculus. Edward Burger is great at explaining the lessons. It is pretty expensive, but I think that it is worth the cost.

  4. Re:What did you think it was, a fluffy bunny? on Lawsuit Claims WGA Is Spyware · · Score: 0

    Bad luck for MS, a EULA isnt binding where i am

    Where is that?

  5. The Title's Wording on Fears of a Conficker Meltdown Greatly Exaggerated · · Score: 0

    Fears of a Conficker Meltdown Greatly Exaggerated

    So what is exaggerated? How much people are afraid of Cornficker or its potential to cause damage?

  6. Re:You tell me... on Resurrecting Old Games, What Works? · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I enjoyed the remake of Star Control 2.

  7. Re:Formats not dealt with? on Bush's Electronic Archives Threaten To Swamp National Archives · · Score: 0

    'formats not previously dealt with.'

    Why can't the National Archives just use the same program that the administration used to write these files? If all else fails, couldn't the NA just ask the software vendor for a specification of said file formats?

  8. Re:Correlation on What Carriers Don't Want You To Know About Texting · · Score: 0

    The feckless youth I see texting in public do not appear to be the sort who employ reason or critical faculties. That's the kind of customer base dreams are made of.

    So you popped out of the womb with all the knowledge you have today? You were a "feckless youth" too, at one point.

  9. Re:Why I don't read comments anymore on FCC Commissioner Lauds DRM, ISP Filtering · · Score: 0

    "Whore" and "bitch" are the kind of words I remember seeing on bathroom walls.

    That's how many people react when the people they pay (through taxes) to be "experts" on issues related to technology say things that are so disingenuous and Luddite.

  10. Re:Be a teacher on Fun Things To Do With a Math Or Science Degree? · · Score: 0

    There are guerrilla marketing books that might catch her interest too, though i can't recall titles atm.

    I think that Unmarketable by Anne Elizabeth Moore is about this.

  11. Space on Richard Garriott Quits NCSoft · · Score: 0

    ... I'm sure he will do well no matter where he goes...

    Maybe he'll take after Richard Branson and go into space tourism?

  12. Less spam? on Washington Post Blog Shuts Down 75% of Online Spam · · Score: 0

    Who's going to email me now?

  13. Good luck with that... on Will ParanoidLinux Protect the Truly Paranoid? · · Score: 0

    But seriously, wouldn't the truly paranoid user find yet another hypothetical vulnerability besides the ones listed in TFA? I guess that turns it into an arms race with someones paranoia..

  14. Re:So what about the other 45 locations? on Debunking the Google Earth Censorship Myth · · Score: 0

    I just looked at the Soesterberg Air Base(number four on the list) on Gmaps, and it's very definitely mosaic'd out.

  15. Re:Yeah? on World's First "Unclonable" RFID Chip · · Score: 1, Insightful

    It's kind of like those 'unhackable' computers, networks and software we keep hearing about. *yawn* Wake me up when someone actually makes such a thing and it actually, you know, works.

    Where do you keep hearing that?

  16. Re:how is that justification? on FSF's "Defective By Design" Targets Apple Genius Bars · · Score: 0

    "Personally, I think protesters are categorically useless individuals who should focus on creating infrastructure to replace what they dislike instead of demanding that other people do it for them."

    Sometimes the only thing people can do is protest. Ever heard of Martin Luther King? Protests *can* make a difference.

    (BTW, I'm not comparing the FSF to MLK.)

  17. Re:Mean-spirited? on FSF's "Defective By Design" Targets Apple Genius Bars · · Score: 0, Troll

    Disclaimer: I do not drive an SUV, I never have, probably never will, and think that many SUV owners don't need an SUV.

    I think that people who actually need SUVs are the minority of SUV owners. There aren't that many places one needs an SUV where people actually use them because in the places still rural enough where people need them, people usually can't afford them.

  18. Call Someone Without Talking to Them... on Call Someone – Without Having To Talk To Them · · Score: 0

    Isn't that TTY?

  19. Re:Bacon fixin's on Geohashing Meets an Angry Rancher With Firearms · · Score: 0

    poisonousness snakes. How would guns help you in that situation?
  20. Can you say... on MPAA Wants To Prevent Recording Movies On DVRs · · Score: 0

    MythTV? Freevo? Even Elgato and SageTV probably won't be made to comply with this for a while...

  21. Re:Wow... on Google Assists In Arrest Of Indian Man · · Score: 0

    Where's Tom Lantos when you need him?

  22. Re:Like herpes on Jack Thompson's Letter To Take-Two Exec's Mother · · Score: 0

    Wouldn't that reduce your ingame health?

  23. Re:3 Beta 5 vs. 2.0.0.13? on Firefox 3 Beta 5 Released · · Score: 0

    I hope it's worth the hour it will take to compile on my Gentoo box. And that's assuming the Gentoo devs decide to put it into the tree...

  24. Re:Installed by millions... on RealPlayer Zero-Day Flaw Under Attack · · Score: 0

    Mplayer ftw.

  25. Re:This is why two factor authentication is necess on Ophcrack Says Your Password Is Insecure · · Score: 0

    Or you can carry around a 256 MB flash drive, take the hashes home, and crack them there.
