    I don't accept diluted tyranny.

  2. Re:here phishie phishie on Paypal Advises Users To Stop Using Safari · · Score: 1

    Why is double checking the URL not a good solution for most people? Are they blind? If they cannot preform such a simple operation then they should not be using the internet. If you want a car analogy, "If I can't be relied on to observe traffic around me while driving, then I should not be driving, regardless of how necessary society says driving is."

    What the fuck mods? This is not funny, it's childish and off topic.

    Arbitrary scorings are arbitrary.

    Technically, nothing matters but the money, not even technical merit.

  10. Re:Why compare? on Mossberg Reviews the Lenovo X300 Vs. MacBook Air · · Score: 1

    Very well, I can see that. Personally I just refer to computers by their manufacturer now. ie "I have a thinkpad" or "He has a dell." etc.

  11. Re:Why compare? on Mossberg Reviews the Lenovo X300 Vs. MacBook Air · · Score: 1, Insightful

    PC generally refers to "IBM Compatible PC", which for a long time Apple computers were not. It's just tradition, get over it.

  12. Re:Wasn't that the whole point on US Claims Satellite Shoot-Down Success · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I suggest you try it. I actually cooked spaghetti in a brown paper bag placed in a fire while in boy scouts. Pretty neat actually.

    How about, "Since I have nothing to hide, you shouldn't mind not reading it"

  14. Re:Mossberg has seen it... on The ThinkPad Takes On The MacBook Air · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I dropped my T60p sideways 3 feet onto a solid steel manhole cover. The case was chipped, 'nuff said.

  15. Re:Time for Space tankers to start taking flight on Titan's Organics Surpass Oil Reserves on Earth · · Score: 1

    So you've got at least 7 orders of magnitude of cost reductions to work through before you're competitive with terrestrial fossil fuels. They don't look upon we engineers with reverence for nothing!

    Quite the emotional one eh? The world sucks, get over it.

  17. Re:IBM Does This! Intelligently, using Open Source on Microsoft Believes IBM Masterminded Anti-OOXML Initiative · · Score: 1

    On that note, how did Stalin manage to pull off this Great Purge without computers, OR tabulating machines? Like it or not, the tabulating machines sold to the Nazis had one intended task, assist in censuses. A census is not evil, doing evil things with a census is evil.

    I pretty sure everyone understands that, however that fact still does not decrease it's awesomeness.

    So stop giving a shit! Seriously, why do people care about these things enough to go out of their way to correct others?

  21. Re:Apparently... on The 10 Worst PC Keyboards of All Time · · Score: 1

    I must say that my Thinkpad T60p's keyboard is not only a very good laptop keyboards I've ever used, but it's one of the best keyboards in general that I've ever seen. It's tactile feedback is reminiscent of the old IBM Model M.

  22. Re:Bah, move the servers offshore. on TorrentSpy Must Preserve Data In RAM For MPAA · · Score: 1

    All you have to do is put your artificial island in a rather shallow area. When they claim it's not a real island just say "Well it used to be but global warming sunk it!"

    They'll bend over backwards to accommodate you now.
