  1. Make a Phone App on Resurrect Your Old Code With a DIY Punch Card Reader · · Score: 2

    I bet most Android / iPhone cameras could scan those cards easily enough.

  2. Re:Naturally on Latest Netflix Earnings Report Mixed · · Score: 1

    The DVD's is what's holding Netflix back, and the reason why no one else wants to touch them. Netflix needs to ditch those DVD's and let RedBox handle them.

  3. Re:I cancelled my Netflix subscription a while ago on Latest Netflix Earnings Report Mixed · · Score: 1

    Actually, the cost of Amazon Prime I think is well worth it. For all you get, streaming movies, free 2day shipping, 1 book rentals on kindle. All for only $79 a year. Reason I purchased it was to save $50 shipping on an Air Conditioner, and now I can watch prime movies on Roku.

  4. Re:No more DVD rentals? on Latest Netflix Earnings Report Mixed · · Score: 1

    I can't even remember the last time I rented a DVD. It must have been about 5 years ago. Maybe this will be good news for the local DVD rentals at the Mom and Pops stores.

  5. Re:Said it here first... on World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria Launches On September 25 · · Score: 1

    Most people who still play these MMO's are usually disconnected from the rest of the world. I doubt any of them will even read this blog.

  6. Faster ADs in Browser on Windows 8 Graphics: Microsoft Has Hardware-Accelerated Everything · · Score: 1

    All this acceleration can only mean one thing - a faster way to render all those flashy ADs to your screen. Without all the bloated flash on most websites, we wouldn't need all this acceleration, in-fact you could probably get by with an old Pentium 100 Mhz PC with a 2MB Trident video card.

  7. Re:So we live in molasses on Interviews: Giovanni Organtini Answers About the Higgs and LHC · · Score: 1

    So the Boson makes up the field, or the field makes up the Boson? How can something be made up of itself?

  8. Re:So we live in molasses on Interviews: Giovanni Organtini Answers About the Higgs and LHC · · Score: 1

    Is there anyway to visualize this?

  9. So we live in molasses on Interviews: Giovanni Organtini Answers About the Higgs and LHC · · Score: 1

    I sort of get what this Higgs Boson is, and if this field gives mass to particles, what gives mass to this Higgs Boson? I mean, if you go down deep enough, their must be some sold object that makes up all this energy, or is energy just an infinite level of density?

  10. Re:Human Evolution on The Nation Is Losing Its Toolbox · · Score: 1

    Not if Foxconn replaces all those workers with Robots which sounds like what they want to do. At least now no one can say that Apple is mistreating their employees, if their all robots.

  11. Re:I wish Gore had won. on Spooky: How NSA's Surveillance Algorithms See Into Your Life · · Score: 1

    The fact that the media and Wall-street don't like Ron Paul speaks for itself.

  12. No one writes software without tools on Ask Slashdot: Value of Website Design Tools vs. Hand Coding? · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Imagine trying to program the software you use in machine code, without any tools to aid? Maybe back in the early days, it was done this way, but today everyone uses the necessary tools if you want your software / website to get noticed. Unless your website is very basic, in which case it will probably never get noticed.

  13. Re:I wish Gore had won. on Spooky: How NSA's Surveillance Algorithms See Into Your Life · · Score: 2

    Gore is a hypocrite! The only person who showed any concerned about our liberties was Ron Paul, but he will never get elected because he's not a puppet on strings.

  14. Re:No, we understand the "Context" just fine. on Gartner Analyst Retracts "Windows 8 Is Bad" Claim · · Score: 0

    I've been using Windows 8 for 6 months on my Thinkpad X60 tablet PC, and it sucks. I've been trying to get used to it, hoping that maybe I just need a little time with it, but I can't stand it. Only reason I still keep it on is because I have to evaluate this new OS for my work.

  15. No, we understand the "Context" just fine. on Gartner Analyst Retracts "Windows 8 Is Bad" Claim · · Score: -1, Troll

    Most of us who have tried Windows 8, know how bad the UI is. Microsoft is trying to polish this Turd, and wants you to like it.

  16. Re:One word... on The Nation Is Losing Its Toolbox · · Score: 1

    Once the A.I. has been perfected, it will spread faster than the iPad / iPhone.

  17. Human Evolution on The Nation Is Losing Its Toolbox · · Score: 1

    In this technology age we live in, thing are changing very rapidly. Computer and Machine is merging with Humans, and that means we will have to take on new roles. Unfortunately there isn't enough for 7 Billion people to keep busy doing important work. I imagine large populations will be living like cattle, with nothing to do.

  18. Re:TED on World Population Grows Beyond 7 Billion · · Score: 1

    What people don't understand, is that the Bible was meant for an earlier time, not today! It's like reading the hieroglyphics in the Egyptian Pyramid and thinking its today's news. Humans evolve, ancient text doesn't.

  19. Re:TED on World Population Grows Beyond 7 Billion · · Score: 1

    Anything that teaches people to believe in things without question, simply because of some myth, is irrational.

  20. Re:100% serious.... on World Population Grows Beyond 7 Billion · · Score: 0

    We are doomed to extinction because of our evolutionary traits, such as greed and envy. All of which made it possible for intelligent life, but also results in self destruction.

    It will consume the world till it consumes itself.

  22. Re:TED on World Population Grows Beyond 7 Billion · · Score: 0, Troll

    Religion is what got us to this place to begin with! Anyone with a rational brain can see the consequences of having too many kids. Religion teaches irrational behavior.

    Yea, you'll need those HIGH-PAYING wages to support all those collecting UNEMPLOYMENT and WELFARE.
