  1. 1940s on Political Bloggers May Be Forced to Register · · Score: 1

    well it *is* nazi Germany.... Oh, America you say?

  2. I wouldn't want to buy it... on "Dracula's Castle" For Sale In Romania · · Score: 1

    ... But i bet it would be a blast to have a look around it.

  3. i like it on XXX Top Level Domain May Still See Use · · Score: 1
    This means that parents will most likely have an easier time protecting their children from these sites
    But on the plus side, It will make finding porn a lot easier.
  4. Re:If i were bill gates... on Dark Cloud Over Good Works of Gates Foundation · · Score: 1
    Tell us what you would do if you were an African child suffering from some hideous disease caused by a gates investment poison factory pollutant
    If i were an African child i would relize that the factory would still be there regardless if gates invested in it or not and i would be greatful that i am immune to terrible diseases thanks to bill gates. Anyone who thinks this oil plant would dissapear if gates hadn't invested in it is a cretin.

    the LA times have wheeled this poor kid and mother out simply to use them as a vehicle to produce more and more anti-gates media, simply because they know that it's what people want to hear.
  5. Artificial is best on Wikipedia Used for Artificial Intelligence · · Score: 1

    Using Wikipedia for artificial intelligence makes far more sense than using it for actual intelligence.

    It's not so much a collection of facts as it is a collection of widely believed notions.

  6. If i were bill gates... on Dark Cloud Over Good Works of Gates Foundation · · Score: 2, Insightful

    ... I would pull all funding for everything, Stick my middle finger up and say "fuck the lot of ya".
    I'm no fan of bill gates, But this bashing he constantly recieves is petty and infantile.

  7. Canceled the wrong thing on Just Cancel the @#%$* Account! · · Score: 1

    It would have been far easier to just cancel the payments and let them sort it out themsleves.

  8. Re:NASUWT on UK Teachers Say Censor The Internet · · Score: 1

    Ahhh, thanks. Makes sense... I was trying to work out some kind of "not safe for work" thing.

  9. NASUWT on UK Teachers Say Censor The Internet · · Score: 1

    What does NASUWT mean?

  10. Good idea. on Cameras Help Cops Catch a Killer · · Score: 1

    I also heard that if everyone was put in a cage there would be absolutely no crime at all. With results like that, is there really a good basis for argument against these cages?

  11. Re:I used to work for SBUX on Starbucks Responds In Kind To Oxfam YouTube Video · · Score: 1
    I worked there 20 hours a week while doing contracting.
    I spend more time than that in there a week waiting to order coffee.
  12. addiction.. on Geeks In Asia Use Clever Hacks To Get Slashdot · · Score: 1
    A solution was to upload an executable to my web hosting in America that would receive zipped executables by email, execute them, then email me the results.
    And yet, Some people still have the cheek to say we are becoming addicted to the internet.
  13. very sad on Former President Gerald Ford Dead at 93 · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Aww, That's a shame.... He made some pretty good cars.

  14. Different OS Same Support on Three Takers Named for Microsoft's Linux Support · · Score: 1

    Their Linux support will be like their windows support;
    "Have you tried turning it off and on again? You have? Oh..... reinstall it."

  15. the masses are happy on Sex Offenders to Register Emails in Virginia · · Score: 1

    This is only done so polititians can say to other computer ignorant people "Look, We *are* doing somehting about it", Then those other computer ignorant people can say "phew, Thank fuck for that, Now it's safe for little billy to go on the internet", and we can all pretend the world is a much safer place because of a stupid law that makes no fucking sense what-so-ever.

  16. Greed on How Craigslist is Keeping up Internet Ideals · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I don't see how they can equate asking for payment for a service with greed.
    Surely greed is demanding everything for nothing as if website owners owe you something.

    It's nice that craigslist offers so many serives for free, but personally, I wouldn't think any less of him or his website if they were to charge or place ads on the site. He has bills to pay and mouths to feed just like the rest of us.

  17. Allies on U.S. Refuses to Hand Over Fighter Source Code to UK · · Score: 1

    You have to remember, The UK are only Americas "allies" and "friends" when we are doing what America want, Like, Oh i don't know, Helping America out in an illegal war.

  18. Bias Poll on No Love For The Blu-Ray · · Score: 0

    They only asked Steve Irwin fans, And they got it confused with the sting-ray.
    (c'mon, It can't *still* be 'too soon')

  19. Setting a president on Warner CEO Admits His Kids Stole Music · · Score: 1

    That's ok then.. I'll remember to give myself a "stern talking to" when this copy of can't touch this by MC hammer has finished downloading and they shouldn't have a problem....

  20. What they were waiting for on New Programs Fight GooTube Copyright Battle · · Score: 1

    This is what all those people with copyright claims were waiting for. There would have been no point sueing youtube before, They had no money. Now youtube is owned by a group with very deep pockets it's time to go in for the kill.

    because at the end of the day, What would copyright owners rather do? To send a C&D letter and have the content taken down? Or to have the video site constantly infringe on copyright which would mean the copyright owners can take them to court over and over again?

    There is billions to be made from copyright infringment on the internet now. It's created a world of law-suites.

  21. How to tell if your cell phone is bugged... on How To Tell If Your Cell Phone Is Bugged · · Score: 3, Funny

    ... It's when your girlfriend, for no apparent reason, says: "who is nikki and why is she telling you to get tested for syphilis?"

  22. Get it online on iPod To Eventually Hold All the Video In the World? · · Score: 1

    They could do it now simply by giving iPods highspeed internet access from anywhere. As internet speeds get faster and faster it will mean we actually need to carry around less and less physical storage... Hell, Even now i can can download a song a lot quicker than it takes to listen to it and that's on regular 4mb braodband.

  23. Re:no Europe? on Why Vista Took So Long · · Score: 1

    How dare Europe insist that Vista meets thier legal requirements to be released in thier countries.
    Don't they know Microsoft are a very rich american company, shame on them.

  24. Re:Microsoft has zigged when it shouild have zagge on The Soul of A New Microsoft · · Score: 1
    Microsoft has zigged when it should have zagged
    And it "zuned" when it should have not tried to break into the portable media player device market..
  25. This is stupid on UK Schools Bans WiFi Due To Health Concerns · · Score: 1

    If we ban everything that ignorant misinformed people express concern about, the idiots win.
