    Plethora? I'm calling BS on that right now. There's a reason why the UK has one of the highest rates of Netflix subscriptions. The BBC isn't as good. The Beeb wouldn't last a day on it's own two feet.

    And also people who use adobe are usually designers. Slashdot is know for being lacking when it comes to design.

  8. Adobe users on Slashdot on Adobe's Next Major Creative Cloud Release Won't Support Older OSes (petapixel.com) · · Score: -1, Troll

    People who visit Slashdot are generally cheapos at the poor end of IT, or hobbyists. I doubt slashdot users are in their target market. Adobe sell to graphics people who want to make stuff look nice. Anyone who takes looks and design seriously would avoid thigs fugly site.

    If you don't want to hit someone who stops suddenly, don't be so far up the persons ass that you nearly crash into them. Always keep a safe distance from the car in front.

    Less, because they are nowhere near as resource intensive.

    You sound like Lolly, that paranoid woman out of Orange is the New Black. Always ranting and raving how the NSA is chasing after her.

  18. American Stereotype on Mass Shooting Reported at Madden Video Game Tournament in Florida (polygon.com) · · Score: 2

    The stereotypical American is someone who eats a supersized big mac meal and then launches a gun attack on their own school or work colleagues. While not partaking if this activity they are online ranting and raving about how bad the liberals or conservatives are. And of course bombing the crap out of third world countries because some Saudis hijacked four planes 17 years ago. That's how the world views America.

    wish I had my points to mod this up. It's been this way since they kicked the native Americans off their land. A people who thrive on violence and murder,

  20. Re:Time to ban video games on Mass Shooting Reported at Madden Video Game Tournament in Florida (polygon.com) · · Score: 1

    One thing is that by spending so much time behind screens, people are not able to react properly to real life social situations or handle their emotions in such situations. That and the fact that Americans practically put guns into the hands of lunatics doesn't bode well for the future of the US as a society, especially with the climate of political hatred and financial uncertainly. It's a time bomb waiting to explode.

    True dat. Aidensfield has a very high crime rate compared to many cities. And if Jessica Fletcher turns up you know someone is in big trouble.

    The ironic thing is that it was a sports game and not an FPS "murder simulator" that they were playing.

  23. Re:Certified Fresh = The Last Jedi on Why Don't We Care About The Rotten Tomatoes Scores Of TV Shows? (digg.com) · · Score: 1

    The problem with any Star Wars release is that a big part of the hardcore fanbase are pedantic and legalistic. Those are the people you hear whinging and yapping like spoiled children every time a new Star Wars comes out. The vast majority of viewers on the other hand are casual viewers who give less of a crap about the star wars universe. They are there for the action., special effects, jokes and scenery, some popcorn and a coke, not because they actually give a crap about the characters or the story lines.So yeah, while the minority may bemoan how Luke Skywalker was out of character, the rest of us are just enjoying some chewing gum for the brain.

    Glad I didn't do that with Black Mirror. The first episode was about the prime minister having sex with a pig. Then it good better, until the Americans got hold of it and cheesed it up.
