  1. Re:Overhaul comment system. on Ask Slashdot: How Can We Improve Slashdot? · · Score: 1

    Often the only people who get to make noteworthy comments are the first posters. There is a 60 second window into when a new post is made that the majority of the conversation will revolve around.

  3. Re:Not enough content on Ask Slashdot: How Can We Improve Slashdot? · · Score: 2

    I'm not sure how the system works exactly, I've only had a look at it briefly in the past. Maybe give firehose readers/moderators the ability to quickly be specific about why something needs to be touched up before it is front page worthy.

  4. Not enough content on Ask Slashdot: How Can We Improve Slashdot? · · Score: 5, Interesting

    There's not enough content on the front page every day. I know there are many submissions that are made everyday that never make it to the front page. Perhaps loosening the filter or helping people post quality front page material would help. Sometimes good stories never make it through because the guy who wrote it has bad grammar or something. That's a shame.

  5. That man is a national treasure.

  6. I like terrorist videos on A Proposal For Dealing With Terrorist Videos On the Internet (vortex.com) · · Score: 1

    I know I'm going to be downvoted to all hell, but I just wanted to put out there that I and millions of other people actually like watching these videos. Sure, it is bad that someone died in the video, but banning the video isn't going to bring them back. I like watching videos of people die, but that doesn't mean I want people to die.

  7. Godwin on Donald Trump Obliquely Backs a Federal Database To Track Muslims · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I'm not going to say what everybody is thinking. But I thought about it.

  8. Some disabled people are going to be very sad on Google Drops Desktop Voice Search In Chrome (google.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Some disabled people are going to be very sad

  9. Crytek droppings on Id Software Founds a New Office In Germany · · Score: 2

    Probably to steal discount techies from dying Crytek.

  10. Does anyone remember... on Why Bill Gates Is Dumping Another $1 Billion Into Clean Energy · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Does anyone remember when Bill Gates was evil?

  11. We can only hope on Grooveshark Co-founder Josh Greenberg Dead At 28 · · Score: -1, Troll

    I hope this isn't just some boring suicide and is actually some kind of insane Illuminati cover up shit.

  12. Don't worry about it on Encryption Rights Community: Protecting Our Rights To Strongly Encrypt · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I can't imagine any scenarios where any government could practically restrict encryption at all.

  13. 30% of everyone on Depression: The Secret Struggle Startup Founders Won't Talk About · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't be surprised if 30% of the general population is depressed.

  14. WTFPL on Ask Slashdot: Choosing the Right Open Source License · · Score: 3, Informative

    Real men use the WTFPL, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

  15. No GPL on Ask Slashdot: Choosing the Right Open Source License · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Please do not license it under an L/GPL license. There's a lot of software I would like to use, but am not legally allowed to because it uses a GPL license. It sucks.

  16. End game on Interviews: Ask Kim Dotcom a Question · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Do you foresee an eventual end game to copyright infringement legislation in the future, or a moment when copyright holders throw their hands in the air and give up for good?

  17. Typical RMS Strategy on RMS Objects To Support For LLVM's Debugger In GNU Emacs's Gud.el · · Score: 1, Troll

    This actually is in perfect alignment with RMS's life work, which is to hinder the efforts of people he doesn't like. He is a vengeful, awful person. He has made some important software but those days are long behind him, today he does nothing but hurt other people.

  18. NO on Facebook Tests "Satire" Tag To Avoid Confusion On News Feed · · Score: 1

    PLEASE DONT

  19. Running out of operators? on Interviews: Ask Bjarne Stroustrup About Programming and C++ · · Score: 1

    There are a ton of unused characters on a standard keyboard that could be useful and/or fun to use as part of core language feature additions or more operator overloaders. Is there a reason that we don't use them?

  20. Yes on Ask Slashdot: Should I Fight Against Online Voting In Our Municipality? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Yes

  21. The NSF on The Internet's Broken. Who's Going To Invent a New One? · · Score: 1

    Scientists always want to keep the common, working class man down.

  23. A few atoms thick on First Transistors Made Entirely of 2-D Materials · · Score: 0

    A few atoms thick still isn't 2D.

  24. Remember when Osama got iced? on The Guy Who Unknowingly 'Live-Blogged' the Bin Laden Raid · · Score: 1

    I remember when that happened.

  25. No such thing on The Ethical Dilemmas Today's Programmers Face · · Score: 1

    There's no ethical dilemmas for programmers because we are too intelligent for society's garbage morality.
