    Are you a medical doctor? Because my insurance hasn't paid you for a diagnosis.

    Yes, the Left are practically entitled to wear haloes, because you sez so.

    You wouldn't happen to be on the left, would you??

  3. Pro Sports is going down bigtime. The NFL is facing a crisis of the fans not giving a shit any longer. The jocks are more and more percieved as self-entitled pussies. Cities and states dumping more $$ down the rathole are making a terrible mistake. Televised spectator sports is dying.

    What does any of the rest of the walla words you typed have to do with the 'Republicans' part you namedropped in the first sentence? All the politicians are sleazemongers. The whole process needs a major flushing out. The only hope of this ever happening is by devolving power away from Big Government. And 'the other brand', the not-Republicans, happen to be the main proponents of ever more bigger government.

    Well, then. For the record, your Nixoncare/Romneycare deal passed congress solely on the Democratic vote. Zero Republicans voted in favor.

    In a way it's a shame Hillary didn't win because Bommacare IS going to very soon slide down the shitter and the party left holding the bag are 0% responsible for it being enacted.

  6. Standish was an LCD company right there in Wisconsin that no longer exists. Probably due to cheap Asian LCDs. They were a premium US brand.

    Other than maintenance, what does Apple do with the NeXT OS that they plopped their GUI down on top of? Really, they mostly deprecate it over time.

  8. Let's run the same benchmark in a loop, on both processors, continuously, under the processor's ordinary working conditions.

    I didn't know glass could melt like that.

  9. Ultra Super Altivec Unit. (with Secure Enclave!!!!)

    RISC!

    SCSI!

    (but let's not remember pokeytalk networking)

  10. I have worked for a few brilliant sons of bitches myself. I hope karma won't slam me in the head (it won't) that I am glad a few of them are fucking dead now.

    The world turns. It rolls on. And, we forget the shitty part and revere the good stuff. Sometimes in a way that baadly distorts history.

  11. The Mandarins all have the latest iPhone.

  12. Cheap toys outsell expensive toys, what's your point?

    Kids have fun with whatever toys they are given.

    The rich kids might not like that reality, but it's just the deal.

  13. I want Xcode to be part of pkgsrc.

    At least in part because it will mean that Apple has been shut down and is out of business. (iow 'hell will have frozen over')

    I'm not that good at ice skating, but I could learn.

  14. I was thinking more bassoon.

  15. Android and iOS are the only two competitors in the phone/tablet space.

    There are i7 tablets that run Windows, too. There might even be quite a lot of Windows Tablets. There's no reason to assume not, given Microsoft's direction with their GUI.

  16. Android doesn't run it's apps on a java interpreter.

    So you are saying: screw the benchmarks. The only thing that matters is my personal anecdotes!

    I agree completely that your personal experience should rule your choice of gadget to use. But since it's personal, just shut up about it.

  19. There is an old saying from the 90's. "On The Internet Nobody Knows You Are A Dog.".

    That can be revised now: "On The Internet, Nobody Needs To Know Your Dog Has $1,000,000 Worth Of Bitcoins."

  20. Android backup data is just 'overburden' as far as Google is concerned.

  21. Let's hope Google doesn't notice what you just posted about Gmail.

    Never mind, actually. The value of your Gmail archive as a data mine is far greater. They probably have ethical issues regarding our Android backups. We clicked right through a specific agreement when we signed up for Gmail.

  22. Most Slashdotters don't sell Amway, either.

    A stable value like that is exactly what is required of a currency for people to accept it and start using it like a currency. When 'currencies' like Tulip Bulbs or Beanie Babies start swinging wildly in value, they are just vehicles for speculators.

  24. Hey, now, it takes a really high quality polish to finish off a turd and make it presentable. Ask Jony Ive.

  25. Google, one of the biggest advertising businesses in the world, used to say 'Don't Be Evil' was a phrase they liked.

    That strikes me as a fairly bold claim.
