+5 1. bendb commented 9 years ago on video Natural cough sweets

#8 Even if vitamin C did do anything, the serving you'd get through 1 sweet would be around 0.1 mg (less than 1 400th of your recommended daily serving).

I hate videos like these, no idea what has been edited out and how many times it went wrong, if he's that good why not have less cuts?

#5 Cat 3 GBH (as this appears to be) carries a sentence of 9-12 years. I'm not sure a longer sentence would make much of a difference either in rehabilitation or in deterring offences.

+1 9. bendb commented 10 years ago on video Messing with a "Microsoft" scammer in a VM

I was getting calls like this, my steps to hopefully deafen the scammer:

* Download tone generator app on smartphone
* Receive call from scammer
* talk very quietly so they're forced to turn their headset volume right up
* Play 4kHz tone right into the mouthpiece (4kHz is pretty much the most painful sound you can make)

No more calls since...

#9 This video reminds me of the defence for religion. It includes only vague information with no actual evidence against global warming.

The big questions is, what are the negatives of clean energy, none. What are the negatives of fossil fuel use, potential global catastrophe. I know which I would choose.

#6 Not always, they can disguise links using an @ symbol and if they make them long enough it might look legit to the untrained eye.

Example, the following link directs you to google not youtube (in chrome at least):

Burning candles all day?

I would be more worried about burning down my house than the minuscule increase in cancer risk!
