  1. Re:Now that you mention it... on Intel Sued Over Core 2 Duo Patent Infringement · · Score: 1

    hear hear!

  2. Re:Whoa on Danish ISP Tele2 Challenges Pirate Bay Blockade · · Score: 1

    P2P is definately what drove the broadband into every Swedes home (almost every swede then, but still)
    and without P2P, what would your average joe do on the internet? (except view webpages, but that he could do of a modem)

  3. Re:The question that comes to mind... on RIAA Wants $1.5 Million Per CD Copied · · Score: 1

    and by the same standars, shouldn't all of their music count as assets, and be taxed as such? (ie, let them pay 1 million dollar tax / album they've made a copy of, and infinite for each mp3) should make them lower their claims a bit.

  4. Re:Dude, I so have this one: on Pirate Bay Gets a 4,000-Page Complaint · · Score: 4, Informative

    why is this a troll? it's insightful! the Pirate Party didn't get in to Riksdagen, because they didn't even pass the 4% limit. But it's true, that out of approximately 10 active political parties in sweden, they are one, and therefore top ten! that they're the smallest of the parties, and barely got any support seems to be ignored by kdawson..

    i do however believe that the guys of TPB haven't broken any of the current laws in sweden.

  5. Re:What took them so long? on Legalize File Sharing, Say Swedish MPs · · Score: 1

    ofcourse, this is complete BS, there are alot of companies that produce stuff, like IKEA, Sandvik, Bofors, SAAB and so on.. and you can be pretty sure that they patent their ideas.

  6. Re:Limited analog bandwidth is like pixels on Alienware's Curved Monitor · · Score: 1

    you didn't miss the MHz , ie 10^6 Hz in your calculations, 396pixels is not a very big total resolution..

  7. Re:Hmm. on Boeing 12,000lb Chemical Laser Set to Fry Targets · · Score: 1

    yeah ofcourse, say say something impopular, like your environmental policies suck, and get modded into oblivion, well guess what, in Sweden, we dont burn any fossil fuels or coal for energy production.
    we do however use 90% fossil fuels in our transportation still, but seeing as the united states according to http://www.eia.doe.gov/environment.htmlDOE alone are responsible for 20.5% of the total world emissions of carbon dioxide, USA as a nation bear a huge responsibility, and whats most frightening, the biggest opposition to change.

  8. Re:Hmm. on Boeing 12,000lb Chemical Laser Set to Fry Targets · · Score: 0, Troll

    yeah, and it's a nice way to spend shitloads of cash, and then refusing to sign any environment-treaties..
    thank you very much USA, we love you alot!

  9. Re:ha on The Pirate Bay Facing "Old Fashioned" Pressure · · Score: 2, Funny

    you obviously missed all of the britney-pics in the last two years..

  10. Re:ha on The Pirate Bay Facing "Old Fashioned" Pressure · · Score: 2, Interesting

    a little story to cast a bit of light on this:
    three years ago, about simultaneously with the launch of itunes, some friends of mine we're working on a project to sell mp3's from a webpage, they made a nice page, and contacted the record labels. However, most of the labels gave them a blank no, and the ones who would sit down and meet with them, offered the price of 1 $ (6 swedish crowns) per song. And the creditcard companies wanted 3 Skr / song, making it a total of 9 kr/song or roughly 1.5 $ /song. So they way i see it, if they want to be greedy.. they will learn the hard way..

  11. Re:Team Polizei is Alex Roy's racing team... on Geek and Gadgets Set Cross-US Speed Record · · Score: 1

    read it again my dear friend.. he made the same trip twice.. with some team polizei babble in the middle.. :D

  12. Re:Team Polizei is Alex Roy's racing team... on Geek and Gadgets Set Cross-US Speed Record · · Score: 2, Informative

    and then he makes another try, again without being stopped by the cops.. :D

  13. Re:Team Polizei is Alex Roy's racing team... on Geek and Gadgets Set Cross-US Speed Record · · Score: 1

    yeah.. if you RTFA, you'll see that he isn't stopped by cops, but that he aborts, because he realizes that he cannot make the required average speed of 90mph.

  14. Re:This situation has already kind of happened . on Canonical Chases Deal to Ship Ubuntu Server OS · · Score: 2

    baha, they develop in paint.net ? come on, this is just trolling, there are no open services installed by default, so the box should be reasonably safe, as long as you aren't a complete moron. But yeah, i also use debian stable for work, but for the stability, not for security.. it's not windows 98 you know. So yeah, i'd say that they are amateurs speaking out of their asses.

  15. Re:Ah, well ... on Internet Blackout in Myanmar Stalls Citizen Report · · Score: 1

    you should put it in a glass container, and drop the pressure until it expands to wanted size.

  16. Re:routing around censorship on Internet Blackout in Myanmar Stalls Citizen Report · · Score: 2, Funny

    there's really no need to worry about that.. Burma is a very poor country, and has no oil, so i see no reason why Bush would want to "liberate" the Burmese people.

  17. Re:Dioxin, sure, but DDT? No. on Cleaning up the Most Toxic Pollution in the World · · Score: 1

    yeah.. despite the fact that not even concentrated sulfuric acid breaks down the very stable DDT molecule.. (and thereby accumulates through the biomass) and before you think i dont know what i'm talking about let me tell you about myself.. i'm in my fifth year of Chemical Engineering, and yeah, we have mandatory sustainability courses, where the DDT/PCB ofcourse was discussed.

  18. Re:No crap on Hole in Asteroid Belt Reveals Extinction Asteroid · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    yeah, cause we all know that global warming is a myth started be commies and liberals, now where the hell are my nukes? the burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, which leads to more solar radiation being absorbed in our atmosphere, leading to a warmer climate.. which in turn ups the amount of water in the atmosphere, which incidentally also is a greenhouse gas. positive feedback loop ftw!

  19. Re:Not a Gentoo user on Linus Torvalds Speaks Out on Future of Linux · · Score: 1

    hehe.. you're probably right, since i use a intel e6600, which is uh.. well.. not in that list.. i should probably stick with ubuntu. :D

    this sounds farking brilliant! if you have the means, please try to realize it!

  21. Re:Comforting, in a way... on ATI Driver Flaw Exposes Vista Kernel to Attackers · · Score: 2

    ati drivers used to make my win 98se freeze, my win xp freeze, my win 2000 freeze, and they've been a bitch in ubuntu (which i've been using since warty..) so the main question i guess is: How can ATI still be in business?

  22. Re:420 on New Carbon-based Paper Stronger Than Nanotubes · · Score: 1

    what jackass modded this troll? that was funny. :D

  23. Re:Its not going to work on Manhunt 2 Banned In Britain · · Score: 1

    no need to worry.. that's why they'll make multi-language discs.. they don't make any sweden-only pal discs.. we get most games in multi-lang or english.. (and a few in swedish)

  24. Re:Mentioned in Firehose... on Warhammer Online Beta Application Now Open · · Score: 1

    yeah.. which is annoying, because i dont intend on installing windows quite yet..
    from their point of view though, it's an excellent idea, since they can make sure that they get a good spread in the testgroup.
