Comment clean up space (Score 1) 146

I know! We should help clean up space junk by blowing it up and launching it out of orbit with a laser or catching it with a giant net or any of the other proposed junk cleanup methods. If they want to call it junk, that's the space equivalent of leaving it on the curb. Now it's public domain for the snatching!

Comment the magic rule (Score 1) 125

The magic rule of anonymity on Tor is don't go to websites that will actively attempt to use code to find out who you are....oh and don't log in as your actual first and last name on the worst website for privacy on the entire internet. That's probably a rule too.

Most astronomers lack the basic concept of object permanence that most babies have. If you can't see it because no light is shining on it, that doesn't necessarily mean it doesn't exist. Similarly, if the ball rolls behind the couch, it has not vanished from existence.

Juuuust kidding. They're not stupid, they're just liars who made up dark matter to pander for research grant money so they can keep their job since their useless degree won't get them one elsewhere.

Comment who cares? (Score 1) 764

I really don't care. When it he going to openly admit that he's running Apple into the ground and he's a know-nothing idiot who shouldn't be in charge of a company that size. THAT is what we're all waiting for.

That ridiculous convert box pisses me off too. I have the Windows 7 DVR program that works great...over the air! I have a tuner that's digital capable but ohhhh wait, Time Warner encrypts their stupid digital channels. They legally have to give me a free box until late 2015 due to an FCC ruling relating to the "you can't force customers to buy a tuner" law. But who care?! The box uses an infrared-controlled internal tuner. My computer can't tell it to change the channel. That means my "DVR" is useless. If I want a functioning DVR, I have to rent one from them for like $400/yr or some BS like that.
I cancelled cable and went with Netflix and Hulu.
