  1. Re:Makes sense on Man Uses Remote Logon To Help Find Laptop Thief · · Score: 0, Redundant

    What else would someone use a computer for, period?

  2. Re:Let the flood gates be opened on RIAA Loses $222K Verdict · · Score: 5, Informative

    Entrapment is only when the police cause a crime to happen where there wouldn't be one. If a cop comes up to a drug dealer and bought drugs from them, that is not entrapment. If a cop comes up to someone who isn't a drug dealer and pesters them to get drugs for them and they do, that is entrapment.

    Correct; but it's not claiming to be free energy at all.

    Emission-free energy.

  5. Re:Why stop at "human like" articulation? on Huge Leap Forward In Robotic Limb Replacement · · Score: 1

    "After all don't you wince when you hit something in your car? Some people even exclaim "ouch" as if they were themselves hurt. I suspect it's an artifact of being able to use tools that enables us to tack on a tool as a "temporary body part""

    I realize I am sorta picking apart the non-important part of your argument(which I don't necessarily disagree with), but I really do feel this a poor example. Of course you wince when you hit something in your car...it usually means you just damaged your car. And people usually say ouch in such a situation either ironically or because, you know, they got jarred/hurt.

    Democracy is the worst form of government ... except all the others that have been tried.

    It's a lot less misleading when you actually finish the quote.

    Uh, I don't know how long it takes you to type a couple words into a text field then click a link, but your time must be worth a lot more than mine if that's even countable to you.

  9. Re:Cult != Religion on UK Prosecutors Say 'Cult' Acceptable · · Score: 1

    Now I admit I have not studied the bible either(though I also don't try to explain it), but do you honestly believe that your opinion is as valid as someone who actually studied the book you're discussing?

    I've never studied biology, but I'm an expert at it's intricacies.

    They were there because someone had complained people were speeding down the street. Police officers never lie. Fact.

    The motivation?

    Passion, sir. Passion.

    It's okay; it's normal to be jealous of people who can do things you can't.

    And how large of a blade exactly do you think it takes to kill a person?

    It doesn't need to be three inches, I'll tell you that much. Espically if the person is unarmed...or asleep in their bed.

    "This is, to my mind, the grossest abuse of Moore's law"

    Abuse of Moore's Law? Tell me, how exactly does one abuse an observation?

    It just seems like everyone treats Moore's Law like it's something more than an observation and prediction.

  17. Re:muggles still use e-mail, mail, phones, etc. on Kids Say Email is Dead · · Score: 1

    It's a shame that these people that are so worried about their precious 'internet' don't even relize that it's actually the Internet.

    Point is, don't try to call other people out for being ignorant when you're not much better yourself.

    Holy shit, I've seen those things too, and no one would actually believe me till they saw it.

  21. Public vs Private on FBI Seeks To Restrict University Student Freedoms · · Score: 1

    My question, and do forgive me if I overlooked this in the article, is how would this affect private universities? I'll be attending one in just a couple of months, and I know they operate under different guidelines than a public university, so how would something like this affect a student at a private university?

    Well you see, stopping the base head dealing rocks on the corner is a lot harder to deal with than some teenager you pull over that you can easily intemidate.

  23. Re:Vehemently Anti french on McCain on Net Neutrality, Copyright, Iraq · · Score: 0, Troll

    Well, no.
    You see, the French Revolution didn't actually occur until around 1789. That was 17 years after America's Declaration of Independence(1776). So in reality, a lot of the French Revolution actually was sparked by the American Revolution.
