  1. Awesome on AMD Making a 5 GHz 8-Core Processor At 220 Watts · · Score: 4, Funny

    I always wanted to have a computer running my freezer

  2. Re:The real reason on 10GbE: What the Heck Took So Long? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Biggest reason I can remember from when we were looking at upgrading SAN and LAN equipment in our data center was the price/performance point. We didn't need 10 GbE performance yet and the price was pretty far above what we were using. That was 3 years ago though, so I'd have to poke around some of the newer equipment to see if we have any boxes with it. I just took a gander through the HP and Dell offerings and it's not even an option on anything but the top tier equipment. I think that pretty much explains the situation itself.

  3. Re:Bitch set him up on Ask Slashdot: How To Determine If a Video Has Been Faked? · · Score: 1

    If I were older than 4 when he got caught smoking crack or even able to vote him because I lived in DC, I might care. It's just funny to me how dysfunctional DC proper politics are just fucked.

  4. Bitch set him up on Ask Slashdot: How To Determine If a Video Has Been Faked? · · Score: 1

    I don't know if it's real or not, but I'm just going to imagine Marion Barry being arrested for crack possession and will laugh to myself for a few minutes.

  5. This just in on 3D Printers For Peace Contest · · Score: 1

    The two causes are not mutually exclusive, and I say this as a gun enthusiast who would not fire a 3D-printed gun with his own 2 hands.

  6. Re:Well... on Of 1000 Americans Polled, Most Would Ban Home Printing of Guns · · Score: 1

    That's why there was a shockwave of blood and violence over the last twenty years as the number of people CCW licenses reached an all time high....

  7. Re:You are a subject. on Of 1000 Americans Polled, Most Would Ban Home Printing of Guns · · Score: 1

    What does your post have to do with his? Oh wait you just wanted to insult the US. Carry on being a complete troll.

  8. Re:This guy is a fucking idiot on Ad Exec: Learn To Code Or You're Dead To Me · · Score: 1

    Yeah I'm not trying to say I'm a badass or anything. Just that knowing a programming language is only useful if you're going to use it* *the programming

  9. This guy is a fucking idiot on Ad Exec: Learn To Code Or You're Dead To Me · · Score: 1

    That is all, and I say that as someone who knows more than one programming language.

  10. Re:so... on Biometric Database Plans Hidden In Immigration Bill · · Score: 2

    If I could call you a complete moron and downvote you at the same time, I would. However I have no mod points left for the time being. You're a complete moron.

  11. Re:Less is more. on Adobe's Creative Cloud Illustrates How the Cloud Costs You More · · Score: 1

    I didn't try and make a point. I actually explicitly said it didn't matter and that GIMP has a piece of shit GUI. It's so unintuitive it's painful to use.

  12. Re:Less is more. on Adobe's Creative Cloud Illustrates How the Cloud Costs You More · · Score: 1

    Do you want a dollar? Gimp is a shit UI. Just because you designed your own UI doesn't mean you did it well.

  13. Re:Less is more. on Adobe's Creative Cloud Illustrates How the Cloud Costs You More · · Score: 1

    So is your grammar. It doesn't undermine my point that Gimp has a piece of shit GUI. That'sa fact.

  14. Re:Glitches on Feds Drop CFAA Charges Against 'Hacker' Who Exploited Poker Machines · · Score: 1
    Have you ever actually played the slots?

    Can't say it seems like it

  15. Nice try on Feds Drop CFAA Charges Against 'Hacker' Who Exploited Poker Machines · · Score: 2

    We strapped him down real good.

  16. Re:Less is more. on Adobe's Creative Cloud Illustrates How the Cloud Costs You More · · Score: 0

    I'm sure you're trying to sound knowledgeable but it's not really working. There's an obvious implication of usable/modern UIs here.
    Feel free to bring in UIs from the 40s too if you want. You'll just look like a bigger idiot.

  17. Re:Less is more. on Adobe's Creative Cloud Illustrates How the Cloud Costs You More · · Score: 0

    Clearly not. Great response there. Glad you could make it out. Sorry you didn't make the team.

  18. Re:Less is more. on Adobe's Creative Cloud Illustrates How the Cloud Costs You More · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Gimp is a piece of shit. The UI is probably the worst one I've everseen.

  19. Re:Not really on The First Fully 3D-Printed Gun Has Been Successfully Test-Fired · · Score: 1

    The implication is expressly not that. For the literate in the group, you read about the nail used as a firing pin. "The only parts of the weapon that weren’t made using a 3-D printer were the actual.380 round and a nail used as a firing pin"

  20. Wait a second on Are Contests the Best Way To Find Programmers? · · Score: 1
    The prize for winning a programming contest is an interview? What am I thinking of? Oh Yeah. I remember now.

    [fuckthatshit.jpg]

    Seriously if I win your contest and I don't even get a job offer, it's probably not a company worth working for in the first place. Jesus quit being dumbasses and just require a coding screen in the interview process.

  21. Re:Not really on The First Fully 3D-Printed Gun Has Been Successfully Test-Fired · · Score: 1

    The firing pin on any gun is going to need to be metal or it would fail during or after the first firing attempt.

  23. Re:That's nice on The First Fully 3D-Printed Gun Has Been Successfully Test-Fired · · Score: 3, Insightful

    You'll notice they do not control for legal carry versus illegal carry among a number of other quite obvious and important factors. That study is pretty much worthless.

  24. I am on the only one with the reaction on Xkcd's Long-running "Time" Comic: Work of Art Or Nerd Sniping? · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I don't really care? I even like xkcd

  25. Re:Fiction, not fact. on Bruce Schneier: Why Collecting More Data Doesn't Increase Safety · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Wow Schneier's point went completely over your head didn't it?
