  1. Who are the morons spreading "software-defined" bullshit when there already is a common, well-understood word that perfectly describes the feature?

  2. Big Deal on Gut Microbes Can Split a Species · · Score: 2

    So, gut bacteria can make mating incompatible. What's new?

    It's an artificial problem for the concept of "species", an outdated notion. Get it together, biologists.

  3. "Highly Irate"? on Tech Firms Planning Highly Irate Letter To Government Requesting Transparency · · Score: 1

    Did samzenpus just get a dictionary somehow?

  4. Tried and True on Ask Slashdot: How Do You Automatically Sanitize PDF Email Attachments? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Can't go wrong with chicken bone.

  5. Re:polite - yet cutting and informative on Kernel Dev Tells Linus Torvalds To Stop Using Abusive Language · · Score: 1

    Ain't that the truth, those snide limey bastards.

  6. Paging Justice Dept on Apple Renews Contract With Samsung Over A-Series Processors · · Score: 1

    I think Apple and Samsung are putting on a bullshit show while colluding behind the scene.

    FTC should look into it.

  7. Short version on Kernel Dev Tells Linus Torvalds To Stop Using Abusive Language · · Score: 5, Funny

    Sarah: Hey assholes, let's not be so mean, ok?
    Linuz: bitches, please.

  8. WTF?! on Global Anoxia Ruled Out As Main Culprit In the P-T Extinction · · Score: 1

    Gorilla glass, what's that?

  9. Read the "bad" reviews on Are Amazon Vine Reviews of Technical Books a Joke? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Read the three- and two-star reviews. They give you both good and bad. Large part of five- and one-star reviews are crap.

  10. Re:VW on Volkswagen Concept Car Averages 262 MPG · · Score: 1

    Ha. Ha. Funny man.

  11. Dear Soulskill on France Revokes Ability To Disconnect Convicted File-Sharers From the Internet · · Score: 2

    Can you write in English?

  12. Re:VW on Volkswagen Concept Car Averages 262 MPG · · Score: 1

    Huh. Never heard of antifreeze in the trunk.

    But seriously, brand new cars from factory burn oil like 20-year old junkers, that's "German engineering" for you.

  13. VW on Volkswagen Concept Car Averages 262 MPG · · Score: 1

    You'd have five service trips before the first gallon is burned.

    German cars are enjoyable to drive, but they are high maintenance vehicles and seem designed that way.

    Ask VW owners about engine oil mysteriously disappearing - this is no joke.

  14. Apple the Dumbass on Apple and Amazon End Lawsuit Over the Term 'App Store' · · Score: -1, Troll

    Are you tech company or a law firm? Dumb fucks.

    Get it together FFS.

  15. Slashdot V2 on British Airways Set To Bring Luggage Tags Into the 21st Century · · Score: 1

    Anyone interested in putting together slashdot v2? You know, like it was before with taco, with real science/tech news, nerd humor, etc., where half the posts are not astroturfing?

    How would we go about it?

  16. Another rambling bullshit summary on Microscopic "Tuning Forks" Help Determine Effectiveness of Antibiotics · · Score: 0

    That's nice that a new technique is developed to measure/observe bacteria, but what's with all that bullshit about rushed bacterial infection?

    PR idiots.

  17. Re:Wow, just wow. on KWin Maintainer: Fanboys and Trolls Are the Cancer Killing Free Software · · Score: 1

    Look, I get it. You're 14, you live in your parents' basement... The problem with trolls, fanboys and flamers...

    You are a case of a flamer flaming flamers. :)

  18. Re:Wow, just wow. on KWin Maintainer: Fanboys and Trolls Are the Cancer Killing Free Software · · Score: 1

    American perspective vs. German(/European).

    Yeah, yeah, stereotypes are evil, yaddy yah, but you know it's true.

  19. "Software-defined" on Software-Defined Data Centers: Seeing Through the Hype · · Score: 1

    Another senseless buzz-defined buzz phrase.

  20. NSE - Null Streisand Effect on Debian Says Remove Unofficial Debian-Multimedia.org Repository From Your Sources · · Score: -1

    Never heard of it before, but then, it don't make no difference - never used it before and won't use it now.

  21. Re:Uhm... on Temporal Cloak Erases Data From History · · Score: 1

    This is why we should never fuck with time - just not worth all the hassle that crop up.

  22. Re:Let's Clear This Now on Avatars Help Schizophrenics Gain Control of Voices In Their Heads · · Score: 2

    Yes, informative in demonstrating psychiatry is load a crap - pile upon piles of ambiguous, infinitely stretchable verbiage.

  23. Resistance is futile on Avatars Help Schizophrenics Gain Control of Voices In Their Heads · · Score: 1

    You can't control me, fool!

  24. Re:Of course on Ask Slashdot: Can Yahoo Actually Stage a Comeback? · · Score: 1

    Oh, I don't know. I've seen some male bimbos in my days so far.

  25. Re:Of course on Ask Slashdot: Can Yahoo Actually Stage a Comeback? · · Score: 1

    And also, calling a girl "bozo" would be offensive to women, and that would be uncivilized. Right?
