  1. Moral of the story on Poking Holes In Samsung's Android Security · · Score: 2

    the network carriers approve a security patch seems to be a very, VERY, long time!

    Do not use ROMs dependent on the carriers.

  2. Fuck Dick Tracy on Samsung Also Making a Smartwatch · · Score: 1

    I want Jarvis.

  3. Re:$24 on Jammie Thomas Denied Supreme Court Appeal · · Score: 1

    After 7 years she is probably already into this for more than 24k, what difference does it make at this point.

  4. saber-tooth tigers?

  5. Re:Play store not the only source on Google Removing Ad-Blockers From Play · · Score: 1

    Who wants to be dependent on an app store? Reading all the replies you would think people forgot software use to come in a box. Being able to download software is great but I sure as fuck don't want to be dependent on a single source.

  6. Re:Why am I at work? on StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Released · · Score: 2

    Assuming their authentication servers are up.

  7. Re:gaming the rules.... on Ferrari Unveils World's Fastest (and Most Expensive) Hybrid · · Score: 1

    Is there any mention of being green? I figured the sole purpose was for the extra 163hp, and because they can.

  8. Re:Fucking sleazebags on Microsoft Restores Transfer Rights To Office 2013 · · Score: 1

    Yeah, seems like they were testing the waters.

  9. Re:ROI on Boeing Touts Fighter Jet To Rival F-35 — At Half the Price · · Score: 1

    F-35 can't fly within 25 miles of a lightning storm.

  10. Personally I think they should go after Microsoft for denying android the choice of IE.

  11. Re:Personal medical information on Microsoft: the 'Scroogled' Show Must Go On · · Score: 1

    Call me a tin-hatter but what one spokesperson says and what another data-mining team is doing with mail could be two completely different things. If it is important, you can be sure that nobody has any idea exactly what is done with the mail.

  12. Re:Watch wearing is a declining trend on Apple's iWatch Could Come With IOS, Earn $6 Billion a Year · · Score: 1

    I feel the same way about the Dick Tracy thing. Seems to me the google glass would be a better "next thing". I think I would rather have smart technology moved into my glasses, also I don't wear a watch.

  13. Re:ROI on Boeing Touts Fighter Jet To Rival F-35 — At Half the Price · · Score: 1

    If the reaper flies into a lightning storm, it wins. Assuming the reaper can handle lightning.

  14. Re:Shotgun approach on LG Not Working On Windows Phone 8 Devices · · Score: 1

    The optimus G is a great phone and very refined, it is like a work of art.

  15. Re:The innovation we've come to expect from HP on HP Back In Tablet Game With Android-Based 'Slate7' · · Score: 1

    on a par with Chinese tablets costing half the price

    Wait for the fire sale and then it should be competitive.

  16. Re:Kindle HD on HP Back In Tablet Game With Android-Based 'Slate7' · · Score: 2

    I think the HP should be closer to the $99-149 range given those specs, otherwise you would be crazy not to get the Nexus. Hardware advantages aside, the software updates alone would be worth the extra money.

  17. Semi-related on Quadrocopters Throwing and Catching an Inverted Pendulum · · Score: 0

    These are a blast.

  18. Re:disassembly reveals It's really an IBM on Sony Announces the PS4 · · Score: 1

    I agree, I think it should have a name, instead of the next iteration of its count.

  19. Re:On code names on Report: Windows Blue Reaches Its First Milestone Build · · Score: 1

    A larger committee was involved with the final release name.

  20. Re:Why care about the transition? on Ubuntu Tablets: Less Jarring Than Windows 8? · · Score: 1

    I very much like cinnamon also, but I am of the old thinking that a taskbar with my running tasks is a good thing, but new paradigms would suggest otherwise.

  21. Re:Windows Blue... on Report: Windows Blue Reaches Its First Milestone Build · · Score: 1

    I would mod you funny but I already posted my meme.

  22. Re:Windows Blue... on Report: Windows Blue Reaches Its First Milestone Build · · Score: 1

    Windows bsod.

  23. Re:Two powerful reasons for removable bits on HTC Unveils Revamped HTC One · · Score: 1

    Sounds like you have Google Now and S-voice hotwords enabled for both services.

  24. Re:Retrieved Samples Without DPRK's AF Scrambling? on Update — Sensors Do Not Pick Up North Korean Radioactivity · · Score: 1

    Well, to be fair if they fly anywhere near a lightning storm the F-35s are screwed.

  25. Re:Non removable battery, no memory card slot. on HTC Unveils Revamped HTC One · · Score: 1

    The S3 with removable battery and door is .7mm thinner than the HTC. I don't have any numbers, but I would wager the USH1 card is faster than internal memory, which is nice when copying large files or a large quantity of files.
