  1. Re: Everybody Makes Money from Android on Nokia Lumia 1020 Video and Photo Shoot Preview · · Score: 1

    nokia was larger in market cap but not it reality i am going to kill myself now. That's how i read it in my mind. It's my brains way of avoiding being tortured.

  2. Re: Mod parent up! on Dropbox Wants To Replace Your Hard Disk · · Score: 3, Informative

    damn right they teach 1984 now. It used to be a cautionary work of fiction. Now it's a users manual.

  3. Re: Cobol is self-documenting on The Pentagon's Seven Million Lines of Cobol · · Score: 1

    No, vanished in this case means destroyed. Before a bureaucrat can set up his own empire, he must incapcitate the former. If he can get paid a billion dollars without actually going through the trouble of setting up his empire, than so much the better.

  4. sorry, i don't have time for this on New Atomic Clock Could Redefine the Second · · Score: 5, Funny

    My watch is made in china.

  5. Re:The best way tou reduce our stockpile - USE THE on A Case For Unilateral US Nuclear Warhead Reductions · · Score: 1

    It was actually chosen in defense of Arizona standing up to the feds. I realize that using doubly ironic sarcasm invariably leads to my posts being modded troll, but no offense was directed at Arizona.

  6. Re:If you need it you are doing it wrong. on LibreOffice Calc Set To Get GPU Powered Boost From AMD · · Score: 1

    Throwing more hardware to compensate for bad code has been the practice for,uh,ever.
    I appreciate good code as much as the next guy, but programmers are expensive, and good programmers are kinda weird. Besides, there is plenty of cloud left.

  7. All I Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten on Ask Slashdot: Permanent Preservation of Human Knowledge? · · Score: 1

    Most of the rest is cool and stuff, but way overrated. Man's quest for knowledge is the irony spelled out in the first few pages of a book despised by those described therein.

  8. Re:Bring back the Pharoahs on Egyptian President Overthrown, Constitution Suspended · · Score: 1

    The entire world population in 1000 AD was about 250 million. Your dogma is worse than any church. Does your theatrics infer a murder of statistics?

  9. Re:A bit confused. on Underground 'Wind Mines' Could Keep Datacenters Powered · · Score: 2

    I was thinking the same thing but then I realized nobody ever includes the cost and efficiencies of actually making giant storage batteries. So I suppose if you live next to a salt mine and have plenty of wind, it might be worth it.

  10. The best way tou reduce our stockpile - USE THEM on A Case For Unilateral US Nuclear Warhead Reductions · · Score: 0

    on Iraq, or the French. makes no difference to me. We have to, lest the government decides to use them against Arizona.

  11. It takes a lot of education to give up your rights on Supreme Court Overturns Defense of Marriage Act · · Score: 1

    especially the unalienable ones!

  12. Re: singularity on Breaking Supercomputers' Exaflops Barrier · · Score: 1

    This comment is more insightful than funny. I doubt a machine could ever reproduce this condition. When is the last time you met a stupid person? Sure, at the time I'm it was very frustrating. But even to this day, you remember a lot of them, and it makes you feel good. Doesn't it?

  13. Wi-Fi wants to be free. on Comcast To Expand Public WiFi Using Home Internet Connections · · Score: 1

    "Wi-Fi wants to be free. And a growing number of companies and nonprofits are aggressively expanding the definition of "free Wi-Fi." This has primarily involved ..."
    Charging ignorant saps for things they could configure themselves for free.

  14. Re:Prior art on Ancient Roman Concrete Is About To Revolutionize Modern Architecture · · Score: 2

    Well eggs and beach balls, not so much. Why not change your understanding of structural engineering before assuming your hand waving opinion even comes remotely close to fact.

  15. So what's the problem on Software-Defined Data Centers: Seeing Through the Hype · · Score: 1

    The article on robot controlled data centers received warm reception. This article seems more critical. It simply explains what Amazon is already doing, automation through programmed check boxes.
    I'm not talking about some goofy VB controlled hack either. When you automate something, you better have a good understanding of the process. Pushing your labor off to users with credit cards willing to pay for the privilege has been the business model for quite some time.

  16. Re:sorry, don't trust redhat on Red Hat Makes Supported OpenStack Release · · Score: 1

    oh, a pissing contest? I'm sorry my 10 bucks wasn't enough to impress you. Hopefully it hits a nerve with a few people out of the 90% of people that suck the tit of "free" software. I'm sure they cashed the check. What I don't care about is your useless attack of my motives.

  17. Re:what happens on 26 New Black Hole Candidates Found In Andromeda · · Score: 1

    A small black hole (Double?) the planck mass doesn't have any matter around it. It would be similar to calculating the gravitational influence you have on Jupiter's orbit if you flew to the other side of the earth. only less so.

  18. Re:MACR 5 year depreciation on XP's End Will Do More For PC Sales Than Win 8, Says HP Exec · · Score: 1

    To the dope moderator who probably assumed "MACR" is some kind of apple product:- insert "stupid moderator" between "business owner" and "dopey IT guy"

  19. suddenly, Bernanke's printing presses make sense on World Population Could Reach Nearly 11 Billion By 2100 · · Score: 1

    Buying back crashed gold with cheap dollars is a plan any (R) or (D) can agree on.

  20. Re:sorry, don't trust redhat on Red Hat Makes Supported OpenStack Release · · Score: 2

    I meant as in "Fedora". That was years ago. So maybe I stand corrected. Only goes to prove that once you lose a customer, you lose him for life. Haven't been to their site in five years. I used to buy a RedHat CD every year just to "help out" Now I find it's better to give directly to the authors. - keep those pay pal links!

  21. sorry, don't trust redhat on Red Hat Makes Supported OpenStack Release · · Score: 1

    I like redhat, (Centos), I just think it's only a matter of time before they abandon yet another project. Like dumping the desktop. Guess I'm just old fashioned.

  22. Re:The idea that you have to deal with this alone. on To Hack Back Or Not To Hack Back? · · Score: 1

    Yes, we have heard of sysadmins who configure their systems to conduct email floods instead of reading their friggin logs DB. After they get done with the ass reaming from their boss, everyone has completely forgotten about the original vector.

  23. i would be more impressed the other way around on Crowd-Funded Radio Beacon Will Message Aliens · · Score: 1

    Try STOPPING the continuous radio assault the earth commits on the rest of the universe.
    Even aliens can't stand the guy who never shuts up to let them get a word in edgewise.

  24. MACR 5 year depreciation on XP's End Will Do More For PC Sales Than Win 8, Says HP Exec · · Score: 0

    If you are a business owner that is not taking advantage of free money, you're a dope. If you are the head of an IT department that locked your company into a WinXP only solution, you are a dope. The world will continue to spin without you.
