  1. Re:Good on him on Wikileaks Founder Advised To Avoid American Gov't · · Score: 1

    Just my $.02

    ....More like your $2,000.00

  2. User flaw shows dilluded sense of privacy on net on VPN Flaw Shows Users' IP Addresses · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The only flaw is when people believe that VPN or any other network technology streaming on the public superhighway via telecoms and satellite networks is absolutely private and secure 100% of the time. Once you fix that defect, the rest won't matter anymore. Too bad our national security experts are having so much difficulty with that concept, since its bad for business to accept reality or to tell the truth, in general.

  3. Cal legislature keeps a longstanding tradition... on California Wants To Put E-Ads On License Plates · · Score: 1

    .... Criminals make license plates.

  4. Its not about the money, its much more... on Getty's Flickr Sales, Money Spinner Or Ripoff? · · Score: 1

    ...the ego is so much more.

    If you feel the love you'll fork out the $25 to flickr to be "pro" which means that you'll have an even larger capacity to exhibit your work. Others may be motivated by the desire of a vocation or creative challenge, in a flat job market. Vanity Press offerings will tie in nicely with this type of professional incentive.

    If great painters have to die to be valued then semi pro photographers must go broke buying pricey apparatus. Its a pay to play incentive to get hooked into that annual pro fee.

  5. Screw AT&T on iPad Bait and Switch — No More Unlimited Data Plan · · Score: 1

    I mean it. Screw them. Let's just take it over and give all their electrons away. We'll make it part of the U.S. Postal Service, and completely deny them and their shareholders of any more extortion money from us anymore. How's that for "bait and switch" AT&T? Citizens Not Shareholders: Screw Corporate Scum - eat the rich, soylent green is people. Get a sponge BP, its enema time.

  6. I've been lighting farts for years.... on A Genetically Engineered Fly That Can Smell Light · · Score: 2, Funny

    ...its smells so bright it makes your eyes water.

  7. The leading cause of death.... on Phone Number Suspended After Everyone Who Had It Dies · · Score: 1

    ....Is birth.

    The numbers don't lie.

  8. What's the metric for UGLY exactly? on Justice Not As Blind As Previously Thought · · Score: 1

    Convictions versus acquittal is clear enough on the one hand, but who established the ugly versus beautiful scale. What if Cornell types just are attracted to real losers in the opinion of others?

  9. They Don't Call em FRUIT BATS for nothing..... on Politically Correct Zoology · · Score: 1

    What are they supposed to call them, Well Groomed Bats, or Barbara's Bats? Don't ask don't tell bats?

  10. Re:FrostPeas on Texas Schools Board Rewriting US History · · Score: 1

    Reality is not in the least bit influenced by disillusions. You can denounce it all you want, but it doesn't change even slightly by tagging it "liberal bias." You might as well call it a walrus. It just doesn't worry if its is butt looks big in a skirt. That board should do more finger painting and potty training instead.

  11. Re:FrostPeas OH! God! on Texas Schools Board Rewriting US History · · Score: 1

    Heck, the only problems I've ever had were with Atheists.

    God? ....Is that you?

  12. Re:FrostPeas on Texas Schools Board Rewriting US History · · Score: 1

    but YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO YOUR OWN FACTS.

    True. You have to work for your own facts... Nobody gets a free ride. Not even the God Squad.

  14. Remember that TV show Fear Factor? on Using Augmented Reality To Treat Cockroach Phobia · · Score: 1

    It was virtually entertaining.

  15. Re:The carriers have won...here's an OLD idea... on Google Stops Selling Its Own Phone · · Score: 1

    Lets make it ILLEGAL for corporate blood sucker carriers to monopolize any free markets and terms. Lets get retro and smash AT&T back into a bunch of Baby Bells, again. Then we'll hear a pin drop for a better price, better service, and a Sprint policy of correcting any billing overcharges because the customer is always right. While were at it, we'll turn back the clock to before Verizon contracts were spawned by Satan...then lets....I better quit while I'm ahead, before any nudity or violence occurs.

  16. Re:While they were at it.... on In Argentina, Law Against Plagiarism Plagiarized · · Score: 1

    I will, anyway.
    What it is, is, this is, what it is:

    Self-reflexive, exposition, snark....

  17. Re:Oh god. on Gulf Gusher Worst Case Scenario · · Score: 2, Funny

    ....but soon, and for the rest of your life.

  18. Re:...speaking of naked greed on Facebook Calls All-Hands Meeting On Privacy · · Score: 1

    There is absolutely no reason whatsoever that Facebook needs to hand over private information -- other than naked greed.

    Which may be why I misread the headline:

      All Hands Meet On Privates...
    and now its morphing into:
    (sit on my) facebook
    Personal data, naked greed, and hands on privates - sounds like a www.inning.com.bo

  19. What are you doing, Dave? on Car Hits Utility Pole, Takes Out EC2 Datacenter · · Score: 1

    Stop driving like a dork, Dave...I'm getting sleepy...

  20. Re:I've removed everything from my profile on Facebook Calls All-Hands Meeting On Privacy · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I have never liked or respected Zuckerberg, he is delusional and dangerous......but in the meantime I have removed everything from my profile and have suggested others do the same.

    Me too. Zuck is a dick. It should be Zuckerberg / Fucker-nerd - Dick Book.or just Dickless.

  21. Re:Lets look at it from the sphincter's side ... on Oil Leak Could Be Stopped With a Nuke · · Score: 1

    ...eeewwwwwww! Satan's enema?

  22. Gulf of PIGS ? on Oil Leak Could Be Stopped With a Nuke · · Score: 1

    ...I just couldn't resist the irony.

  23. Who said anything about reading? on Do Children's E-Books Ruin Reading? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If you want a kid to read, you'll have to figure out the Dr.Suess first

    Or just get the deluxe ebooks that are like popping "Shreck II" DVD on the nursery color TV. The nanny cam can read the smelly midget an ebook. After that, reading won't matter as much anymore. .

  24. I keep deactivating my accounts.... on A Call For an Open, Distributed Alternative To Facebook · · Score: 2

    I can last about a week before I get really annoyed and shut it down. I've even tried multiple personalities. It all really ticks me off...I hate constantly having to confront their obfuscation and find no end to their "Bait and Click" corporate scum baggery. Its totally Zucks, if you know what I mean. I have not been back for three months now, since before they enacted recent changes that essentially put it all social data on the bathroom wall for all of eternity. Death won't be any excuse for them to stop marketing your data, since they never really cared if you live or die or even have a life. They sell your profile, whether or not you actually exist is irrelevant. Take it from all four of me.

  25. Re:Good hygiene, don't be a know it all. on How To Behave At a Software Company? · · Score: 1

    Buy a book on corporate ethics. Read it twice and abide.

    Correction:

    Steal a book on corporate ethics, then you wont have to read it even once.
    If your not sure what to do, just make up shit.
    If they give you trouble, narc them out for stolen books.
