Comment Just label it (Score 2) 204

If it's clear to me what king of food it it, it's fine with me.
If you want your future kids to have super human powers or gills, take the chance. Eat it!

There are numerous examples where commercial interest was greater than common sense. If anyone wants to gamble, PLEASE go ahead, but leave me out of it.

Comment why... (Score 1) 471

1. We believe the orders are without merit,
2. a waste of German taxpayers' money and
3. we will fight it vigorously,

1. Don't think too much. If the lay says lump, you jump. Either that, or you go to an other country with different laws. (Or do "I AM THE LAW")
2. HOW can it be that fb wastes taxpayers money, unless they will do that by doing 3.
3. Stop wasting my money!

Comment Just go to another website (Score 1) 686

In most cases the things you're looking for can be found on many sites. If one has too many ads, go to another.

Or in the case of television, throw the bloody thing out of your window. Watching commercials and "what's coming up next" for 15 to 20 minutes per hour really is too much. Interrupting a movie with 30 minutes of crap-o-tainment crossed the line for me.

Comment Parametrized assignments? (Score 1) 284

Give all the students individual assignments, based on their student registration number.
First number 1, use this texture; 2, use that texture and so on.

They could copy-and-change, but that would still be a lot of work. Make sure that would be more work than just doing the assignments.
An other trick is to point out the risks of getting caught.

But the more interesting thing is indeed to write something to analyse the files.
I made something to compare Maya files. That worked quite nicely, but I'm not sure if the students liked it. I know I did though :)
