Comment Re:Yahoo = toast. (Score 1) 45

Yeah it was. Yahoo was on top before google came around. I remember the yahoo directory and their rule of "pay $199 for -possible- inclusion of your website into our directory". So you'd have to pay $199 for them to look at your site and decide for themselves if your site was high enough calibur to be afforded the grace of being listed in their directory. Boy have things certainly changed for them since then (2001). I wonder what they'd do for you these days if you paid them $199....

Go ahead and talk about shorting yahoo's stock on their own stock message boards for their own company: http://messages.finance.yahoo.com/mb/yhoo

Comment Not enough free wifi hotspots (Score 1) 81

Shouldn't all wifi hotspots be free? I used to go to starbucks with my laptop and my sprint 4g overdrive and give everyone free access. Paying starbucks for a few minutes of wireless use is insane, plus they have not only your personal information but your billing information as well so they have your address and everything plus your surfing history.

Comment Irrelevant at least for me (Score 1) 86

Please hack my unsecured wifi network with default router login credentials. I don't live in an apartment building full of teenagers, so I can get away with it. Using passwords is really a pain for guests. Plus, my next door neighbors secretly think I'm the man for giving them free wifi. It's kind of the Google mindset applied to running my wifi network although it is just a mere byproduct of my carefree nature towards it. I think everyone should have their own broadband plus an open wifi network, that would really help out with the mesh-networks of the future.

You're not legally allowed to make advertisements for counterfeit products even if it's not your counterfeit product.

Unless you're a communist.

Vist warez-bb.org today !!!

There's my advertisment for counterfeit products.
Guess I broke some silly american law.

Limitless free library ebooks are the death of them.

And good riddance.

Cmon man, cut the libraries some slack. Aren't you going to miss their Windows XP internet computers with the timing software? Extra points if they use "Frozen State" and set your usage priveledges so low that you cannot even open the programs they've installed and chosen for you to use. Oh I think I'll use word 2003 and you get: "Sorry, you do not have the priveleges neccessary to access this feature."

Seriously. Windows XP and Word 2003. Are they kidding.

Brought to you by the Troy Public Library in Troy, NY. (Don't waste your time there)

Yes, good riddance, indeed. Unless you happen to get a kick out of how almost every inner city black man on library computers ends up watching some video with a overweight black womans behind shaking too-close in the camera on some unheard of youtube clone site.

Libraries are the new club-med for homeless people.

Some day, it will be time to pay the fiddler. We'll just have to see how that bill is payed..

Haven't you heard, buying things you can't afford on credit is "the american way" and it is a patriotic thing to do.... for china that is. even the hp laptop I bought online was shipped from china, although hp tried to hide it, it appeared on the shipping slip. Hey, at least my hp laptop didn't have some union neanderthal building it over the course of five days while taking 15 minute coffee breaks every hour, not that any of them know much more about a computer than how to plug it in. I think the guys at the top are doing a great job of screwing this country up the ass. Keep it up, it's fun to watch rich people, welfare queens, and the degenerate american youth complain.

America is the world's debtor, not the world's creditor. It is you who "owes" us money.

Yes, not only is the American government in more debt than it can handle to China, American citizens are in a very large amount of personal debt as well. So, that is two kinds of debt for America. Meanwhile Russia is doing well enough to let some of America's old friends borrow some money for a while, and make something the U.S. gov't does not want them to have: http://www.themoscowtimes.com/business/article/vietnam-gets-9bln-loan-to-build-first-nuke-plant/448380.html -JS

the interests of powerful US people, i.e. drugs, child porn, etc.

Cross the border into Mexico where having your way with a 14 year old prostitute is 100% legal, and helping their economy. Oh and don't forget your viagra and steroids without a prescription at most corner stores. Hey, it's fun. Then you can come back into the US and brag about it. I got into a lot of fights in prison this way. Oh yeah, and you can score a prostitute down there in Mexico for 15 bucks. Last time I heard it was about $5000 - $6000 in U.S. funny money for one of those slags at the "mustang ranch" in Nevada.

Well, considering that Congress are the only ones that have actual authority to declare war

Wrong, the president can declare war all by himself thanks to dubya and the republican majority back in the early 2000's. Don't worry he won't though. The toughest America seems to get is have geriatric John McCain get on twitter and try to be an e-thug on Vladimir Putin. Sorry, but no one is going to compete with Russia's nuclear arsenal, John.

China has an ongoing mission, to probe any and all possible sources of intelligence and/or Imaginary Property held by the United States government and/or corporations?

Isn't funny that China keeps America running by buying almost of all it's debt in the form of Treasury Bills, and it also makes CEO's wealthy with their cheap labor for manufacturing goods sold to Americans, yet, the U.S. is moving it's Navy ever so closer to China in a threatening manner, and as a result, China has put their military at full alert. Kind of ironic that this country relies on them so much, yet all this military action. I love being China's slave. It works for me since I'm a Communist anyways. I also have better luck with Chinese women, too.
