Ya, like all those people who went to jail after those banks crashed the economy. Oh, wait...

This makes perfect sense because of course the part of shooters that people are most interested in accurate simulations of is the part where you suffer excruciating pain and spend months in the hospital recuperating. If you want total realism, every time you buy a copy of Modern Warfare 2, it should self destruct after you are killed the first time, forcing you to go out and buy another, bringing home the terrrible cost of war. Yeah, right...

He's lucky he doesn't live in a universe where "electromagnetism" is everywhere, all the time. Oh, wait...

The jury system was great back when the most complicated thing they had to make judgements on was whether or not a stolen horse had an altered brand - and they all worked with horses.

Today we are asking 12 average joes to make life and death decisions about evidence that even highly trained people would find difficult to follow. The Enron finances, DNA evidence, whether or not some highly technical piece of code is "obvious". This is why juries ignore mountains of technical evidence in favour of bullshit like "If the glove don't fit, you must acquit".

I don't know what the solution is, but I do know I don't want Tom, Dick and Harry sitting in judgement on my patent lawsuit.

Just to be clear, he spent $1000 in 4 years 8 months, not in one year. Even better!

Drones who sell stuff are prone to lie about their products? HAS THE PRESIDENT BEEN TOLD?

Listen, mutual funds a mugs game. You want to get in on the real investing. Open Source is where it's at. I'm managing a lot of peoples' money in the Open Source derivatives market, but I like you so I'll squeeze you in. Minimum investment is $100,000 but I've delivered consistent 20% returns to my clients over the last decade, as these complicated 1000 page spreadsheets will show. Really, if you aren't inversting in Open Source, you might as well be lighting your money on fire.

I've installed (and ditched) Ubuntu on my laptop 3 times. You're right, it took about 20 mins to install. It then took most of 3 days to try and get my wireless working. In the end, it never did recognize my wireless card and I happily spent about 30 min reinstalling XP, which worked perfectly.

Really? Turning sea water into jet fuel is more complicated than it looks? Cause from here it looks pretty freaking complicated.

I wish someone would ban undesireable games in North America. Would have stopped me from suffering through Battlecruiser 3000 AD and Daikatana back in the day.
