  1. First Gen 360 bought on sale. I don't need update. on Older Android Wear Watches Will Miss Out On the v2.0 Update (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 2

    I don't need any software updates. Mine works fine as is. Don't need some new battery draining feature. I still get a compliment on it once every couple of months. Mostly used for telling time, then see who email or text is from, pull out phone if it's not junk.

  2. Good question with stupid solution on Why Are We Spending Billions and Tons of Fossil Fuel On Search of Lost Planes? · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I don't think the question is bad. The solution is stupid. To me why does it have to be stored on the plane itself? Why can't it be transmitted in flight? Or giant mesh network between planes to swap data?

  3. Re:"...the same as trespassing." on Kentucky Man Arrested After Shooting Down Drone · · Score: 1

    Or, did he ask the drone to leave? Or, did he warn the drone to leave or he would shoot?

  4. In related news NSA builds data center in San Fran on FBI Investigating Series of Fiber Cuts In San Francisco Bay Area · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Could it be to hide placing fiber taps in the trunk? Not normally a tin foil hat guy. But, you have to wonder.

  5. Re:Wow brilliant move on Is BlackBerry Launching an Android Phone? · · Score: 1

    Original Droid had a slide out keyboard. That is why I went with it. After a month never really used the keyboard again. Thought I wanted it. In use did not need it.

  6. How does a former School Teacher have Millions??? on Why Is It a Crime For Dennis Hastert To Evade Government Scrutiny? · · Score: 1

    How a former school teacher has over a million to give away, is what I want investigated.

  7. Re:Commodore Hack on Ask Slashdot: Your Most Unusual Hardware Hack? · · Score: 4, Informative

    SAVE "@MY PROGRAM",8 Curious how the floppy drive new who the user was? Don't ever remember logging into my PET.

  8. Year of the Linux Desktop delayed.. on Linux Mint Will Continue To Provide Both Systemd and Upstart · · Score: 1

    Thousands of Windows user trying to switch to Mint our stuck on the "Green Screen of Indecision", not having a clue to use systemd or not!

  9. in further news show tanks on Jeremy Clarkson Dismissed From Top Gear · · Score: 5, Insightful

    End of show.

  10. Re:Yes it is a peering problem ... on First Detailed Data Analysis Shows Exactly How Comcast Jammed Netflix · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I think you have it backwards. Netflix does not "push data" to Comcast. Comcast customers "pull data from Netflix".

  11. Increase specs = Less PC's to buy an upgrade on Lost Opportunity? Windows 10 Has the Same Minimum PC Requirements As Vista · · Score: 1

    Why limit your pool of potential customers, if you don't have to.

  12. Re:Whos fault is this really? on Ask Slashdot: What Do You Do If You're Given a Broken Project? · · Score: 1

    When an app breaks because you fucked with it does all or even most of the blame for this rest on your predecessors shoulders?

    Because good code doesn't do that.

    Actually bad code can do that to good code.

  13. Why is everyone assuming the he is competent? on Ask Slashdot: What Do You Do If You're Given a Broken Project? · · Score: 2

    Why does everyone take his side? He is the one that added a feature and broke it. Sound like he added a feature without discussing with the original developer? When he says "You create a small new feature, and the app breaks down in unexpected ways. You fix a bug, and new bugs pop up all over the place" sounds like he was the person that hacked the code and not the original person.

  14. Re:TI LaunchPad too on Book Review: Arduino: a Quick-Start Guide · · Score: 1

    I would not suggest the launch pad over Arduino for a beginner. I have both. The Arduino is much easier to start with.

  15. Nut's and Volt's on Modern Day Equivalent of Byte/Compute! Magazine? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Nut's and Volt's is also a good one. And, I just love the name.

  16. Yes! We should help India to unionize on Should IT Unionize? · · Score: 1

    Get India and other off shore IT people to unionize! Best way to stop outsourcing!
