Hooray for piratebay

Piratebay and demonoid will save us all

Honda, Yamaha ready electric, hybrid motorbikes

Bohoolllocks

What a stupid notion. Any decent bike burns about as much juice as a car, fuel efficiency is not a reason to purchase a bike. Power to weight ratio is king and anything that doesn't make a bike either go faster or stop faster is a waste of time. Now if they can get some kind of ultra capacitor which can make the bike go faster than petrol burned at 20,000 RPM then petrol engines will hit the skip otherwise no thanks.

Torque is always nice though so if the leckky moped things can lay down a nice black stripe every time you leave the lights there may be some hope for a commuter rocket variant, so long as it can burn the competition off at the lights and blasting through city centres.

Bebo users release interstellar spamgasm at Gliese 581

Oh oh

Surely the one universal constant would have to be a hatred of SPAM. On Earth it can be used as a sanity test. "Do you enjoy receiving SPAM?" anyone who answers yes is a mental and it doesn't matter what country, gender, age or background they come from a Yes answer indicates madness.

The only interpretation of a load of interstellar spam has got to be that it's a hostile act, a declaration of war in fact. If you want to test my theory just forward the content of your spam folder to one of your workmates and see how you get on.

HP and Tandberg trumpet lifesize video conferencing

Brilliant illustration

What's the point in having a bunch of identical drones in the ad. Those people might as well smear some vaseline on a mirror and prop it in front of themselves while making a phone call. Also its creepy when someone goes to all the trouble of wearing a suit and then doesn't put on a tie.

Indian Moon mission is go for 22 October

Barbarous

Considering the UK pumps money into India to build hospitals and considering pregnant women are allowed to die in front of the hospitals based on their skin colour there is a considerable difference between the USA and India in this case.

The caste system is alive and well and killing people in India. Worthless wastes of money such as this crappy probe should be prevented by the international community. Why should British taxpayers subsidise superfluous Indian space nonsense?

US Army gets eco-conscious, preps mega solar plant

Fire all those assholes

Military waste is waste no matter what powers it.

Mapping the universe at 30 Terabytes a night

@LB

Unfortunately I read your post twice and it was as I suspected a waste of my valuable time.

Facebook picks Dublin for international HQ

@AC

It's not Eire it's Ireland and I don't know what kind of sad sacks your band were hanging round with but they sound like they're from Cork which is where we keep the shitheads.

Postman Pat goes postal

Good Grief

What's next Thomas the Tank, Bob the Sapper, how long before Pat has a suspicious parcel.

Apple condemns FileVaulters to seventh circle of Safari hell

Who gives a shit

Anyone who feeds the apple monster deserves everything they get. Even Bill didn't have the balls to charge for service packs which is all this 10.4 to 10.5 is. Only the dull and gullible have macs in my experience and if you have ever owned a pair of glasses with a black plastic frame then you know who you are.

'I can see dinosaurs from my back porch'

Chosen People

Let's say magic beans work for the moment

a)God created Universe

b)God's WORD

c) Creationist DENIES (a) because of a misreading of (b)

Given that (a) and (b) are products of (g) and thus perfect and inviolable what is the degree of error of (c) and based on E(c) what punishment will be (M)eted out by (g)

E=M(c)^2

Cripes

@"The so called left" "Intolerance""Malenkovich"AC

You act out of spite and laziness, the true driving forces of the Universe and yet you produce mediocrity rather than validity. Your slithering hiss of a post conveys your perceptions, but what use are they? Try having a point when you waste so much of peoples time or leave them with a joke.

A paedophile, a rapist, and a priest go into a bar. That's the first guy...

Kill Them

Anyone who believes in Creationism is useless. They can't be put in any position of authority or responsibility. If it came up in court that the driver of a bus involved in an accident was a creationist questions are instantly raised as to their competence. Did they really believe in speed limits, was the speedo in their delusional opinion possessed by the devil, perhaps they thought a flash of light from a mirror was God kicking off the rapture. Who appointed a delusional retard to be responsible for the safety of a busload of people while in a clearly psychotic state.

They should all be humanely killed, as far as they're concerned they are off to meet their magic invisible friend in the sky. As far as society is concerned there's one less gullible moron clogging up the system. The system of tolerance up until now hasn't worked and much like Christiana the experiment has got to end.

Religion may be the opium of the masses but Creationism is the crack of the subnormal.

uTorrent for Mac leaks into Pirate Bay

Transmission on Gnome

I loved Azureus but they changed the name to zorba or something and for downloading transmission does the job just fine. All the lovely extra plugins on Azureus are sweet but since BT started fucking me over with their FUD horseshit I kill everything off when the ratio hits 1:1 so transmission is all I need.

German man arrested after UK gamer's murder

Phew

Great they think the kraust did it, I successfully fed them the false trail and now I get off scot free. ha ha stupid pigs I am not typing this on facebook so it's not evidence. Victory is mine!!!1

EMC founder clashes with IRS over 'tax evasion' scheme

Fair's Fair

Have you any idea how much gin Pat drinks of a weekend? VAT on the slate as Arthur would say.

Kentucky commandeers world's most popular gambling sites

Septics

Gambling's for fools but clearly not gambling is for lunatics.

Apple bans App Store heartbreak chatter

Fuck 'em

That DRM addled shit phone is doomed now that android is out. Only wankers would buy an iPhone anyway, judging by the owners of iphones.

Fines all round! EU blames everybody for illegal employment

Censoring comments

What the Americans is going on comments are posted and then deleted is this to suit the author of the piece or just random abuse of power?

Android-based T-Mobile G1 pics leaked

Wow

It's a damn phone it should

a) Work well as a phone, which the iPhone does not

b) Be cheap, which the iPhone is not

c) Connect using bluetooth and wi-fi, which the iPhone is CRAP at.

If it'll act as a phone, connect well and run Java then Apple should get a good solid hoof in the balls and realise that the phone market has eaten their lunch exactly as predicted.

Apples sad sack proprietary attitude is disgusting, if MS do it they get a beating but the apple slobs seem to get away scot free when they inflict Digital Restriction Management on customers.

As to the fanboys, go buy some lube and do what you know you really want to with your iphone.

500,000 oppose Red Arrows Olympic ban

Parachutes

If they get those Italian chicks to do the parachuting there would only be about 15 -20 signatures demanding the home grown version instead.

Noel Edmonds defies BBC's jackbooted enforcers

Fucking What!

Commentards, is that what it is now when fucking advertising for FOX is questioned. Greasy very very greasy.

Virginia de-convicts AOL junk mailer Jeremy Jaynes

Fucking hell

9 years for spamming is ludicrous, people get less time for murders. WTF is wrong with that hellhole.

Oz minister walks plank for dancing drunk in his smalls

Cherrist

She looks like a bag of sick. He should be fired for that it's worse than bestiality.

Google News farce triggers Wall Street sell-off

Stupid is history

The US system is based on stupidity and multiple choice. As a result the place is populated with what we used to call in the old days "knee jerk reactionary" and "nodding dog" types. Knowledge of fundamentals or indeed any knowledge at all has been removed from the process as "inefficient". Except now the problems associated with a systemic lack of education are emerging. Religiosity, mindless fear, xenophobia, racism, and sheer unadulterated incompetence.

It'll be interesting to see where the price of those shares goes next. Could it be, in the knowledge economy, the collapse of the big knowledge bank (or public faith therein) which triggers the depression this time rather than the collapse of an old style bank.

PS GO not understanding the system being no longer gold based is more of a symptom than an insight.

IBM, PGP fill Bletchley Park's rattling tin

Disgraceful

The place should be a world heritage site and instead crappy primitive mansions are being propped up at taxpayers expense so a bunch of chinless wonders can swan around in them pretending to still have the money great-grandad got from working the fuxzzywuzzys to death or selling opium to the chinks.

Google launching its own navy?

Data Pirates

MS should build a fleet of subs with torpedoes like in that bond flick. Ellison probably has one already.

Mythbusters RFID episode axed after 'pressure' from credit card firms

Sickening

I couldn't watch the clip because there seemed to be a bunch of escaped mental patients laughing and whooping completely out of sync with what was being said.

Data watchdogs did not want to see eBay bank server

hello hello hello

In self defence then one is obliged to give these people false information in order to prevent identity theft. Not that I ever told a bank my real DOB or mothers maiden name but at least now I have a reasonable excuse for my er defensive measures.

Samsung unwraps MacBook Air beater

Ok looking

At least it doesn't look like a cavemans vision of futuristic like all the apple crap. Apple is so Mork & Mindy.

Android's missing Bluetooth: Limitations laid out

Bluetooth or die

"These limitations aren't likely to stop anyone buying an Android-based handset"

In fact it'll be the major reason not to buy the thing.

As to the apple fanboy whimpering isn't there some way to filter them out?

UK.gov to spend hundreds of millions on snooping silo

Slave Nation

Every byte will be routed to your septic masters. ECHELON extension.

Does noone question that the agenda of these snoopers is hidden behind secrecy. The blithe assumption that the interests of the CIA NSA MI5 MI6 and other secret outfits in any way coincides with the interests of the people they prey on. The British foreign office and the US are responsible for much mayhem and death throughout the world specially in the middle east. The terror threats currently being feared are a direct result of these anti democratic manoeuvres.

These spy vermin are only interested in the existence of spy outfits and the increase of their budgets and control over larger parts of the economy. The military industrial complex Eisenhower warned of has grown to ghastly proportions and they cannot be controlled by democracy as they have secrecy as their MO.

14 million CCTV cameras in GB and growing, who knows how many military vehicles and weapons including nukes. A secret space race under way with the Chinese involving illegal nukes in orbit. None of this sanctioned except in the shadiest unverifiable way.

NASA to brief on manned spaceship 'concerns'

The USA is over

They're finished. Once this depression is through with them and the Chinese are running the place they'll be taught manners in school not just how to worship a piece of cloth.

The Jules Verne worked fine as a launch capsule and the Arianne is human rated. It also has the same capacity as the shuttle. The Russian solution for return to earth works, so what possible need is there for yanks with their unbelievably jingoistic racist attitudes preventing progress.

Red Devil assaults Burnley FC's stadium roof

Tsk

Perhaps if the red devils ask really really nicely the Italians could give them some training. A beginners course perhaps from one of the girls, from some steps or a high chair.

US judge decrees open source licenses valid

Oh yeah

Well let's see what Snake Pliskin has to say on the matter.

COBOL thwarts California's Governator

Nothing whatsoever wrong with it

CoBOL is a fine language for what it's used for . What exactly would you replace it with? C which is pure garbage by comparison or VB which is a joke. If it's used for business usage which is payroll accounts stock handling etc then there is no need for anything except CoBOL. I suppose most of the people chiming in have as much of a clue about CoBOL as they do about Forth.

US says the next war will be all in our minds

No surprise

The US looks on thought as a weapon. So much for the right to bear arms.

Ohio official sues e-vote vendor for sloppy counting

Don't worry

It's 110% accurate on Republican votes. Honestly is there anything in the states which isn't completely crooked, it really is a third world country. It makes Italy look righteous.

Cuil feasts on Salmon of Nonsense

Boyle salmon

Maybe it means Dioxin

Open Wi-Fi network wraps Mumbai man in bomb blast probe

@coward

Obviously you're american and clearly you've never been on either side of the table. You make too many presumptions and ridiculous remarks. Had you any real skills you'd know servility is not required. Professionals are however required to communicate not just laugh at the bosses jokes and tug the forelock, that's what has happened in MS and it's why Vista is such a POS.

Wishing you good luck in your future career in trolly recovery.

@Ken Haywood

You seem to confuse hiring people with being their superior. It's a mistake to assume you are in charge of skilled workers just because you hire them on behalf of others with money. You're just a jumped up clerk so don't get ideas above your station.

Cuil confesses 'serious file corruption'

@JOB

That's the best bar joke ever.

Two pigs are walking through the desert one turns to the other and says "I'm bakin'".

US Senate polishes new teeth for cyber cops

Ulcerated Sphincter of ...

How long will it be before MS are using this POS draconian rubbish to get people who install dodgy versions of XP or office thrown in gaol.

Apple DNS patch doesn't patch Mac clients

Screw them

Anyone stupid enough to pay good money for a crappy proprietary GNU/Linux clone deserves everything they get. Apple only exist because tasteless fools think 70's futuristic is a neato look.

Only 'unlawful threats' would invalidate McKinnon extradition

Ho ho ho

Isn't it fantastic to see how readily a subject can be disposed of. Try being citizens, it's a lot harder to dispose of citizens. Still the EU will once again undo the disgraceful toadying of the UK legal system to politicians and of course their US master race.

People who wear wigs and like to be spanked as a result of a culture of sodomy in boarding schools and inbreeding shouldn't really be in charge of anything never mind the liberty of real people. This constant subservience to the knuckledraggers in the US doesn't benefit the UK one iota. Constantly attempting to derail the EU and spying on EU citizens for their US masters isn't really making friends either. I'm sure it'll be looked back on as a kind of generational PTSD after WWII but all those fossils are dead now so why does this subservience continue on into the 21st century? Is it just typical WASP xenophobia, or is it just that the "special relationship" was always just a joke as far as the US was considered and admitting that would be too embarrassing for the UK.

Microsoft Mojave 'outs' secret Vista lovers

Mojave

A lot of the people in that hidden video look like they normally sleep in a cardboard box with a bottle of thunderbird.

Sony profits down, but PS3 sales up

What is this loss crap?

The thing sells for €400, where is the loss? Just how gullible are console cretins? BTW anyone who picks the hideously ugly, deafingingly loud, overheating junk which is the xbox 360 over the PS3 has no style or taste.

Lateral thought saves sizzling server

WOW

It's amazing how simple problems seem difficult if you don't think.

Doctors: Third babies are the same as patio heaters

Unwanted children

I suppose if your name is Pip you know what it is to be an unwanted, spare child. Bound to affect your disposition.

What is wrong with the medicos, why are they such psycho types? Do they recoil so far from seeing so much human suffering that they just end up dealing with meatsacks. Once they become that desensitised they start applying good accounting practice to populations of Human Beings and tend towards Shipman behaviour.

The solution must be to have everyone who sees a doctor call back a month later. Then they can thank the nice doctor and assure them that the medical problem cleared up nicely, shake their hand and just say thank you. All this perceived pain, misery and ingratitude is clearly bad for the docs disposition.

Reg hack insults the Parachute Regiment

Who would have guessed?

Looks like the straps around the crotch area need adjustment.
