  1. Re: Competition is a beautiful thing on AMD Launches Higher Performance Radeon RX 580 and RX 570 Polaris Graphics Cards (hothardware.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Project Scorpio is pretty much built for VR.

    So you're not that informed about Scorpio...

    40% faster.

  3. Yep. They can actually speak English... often with enough of a vocabulary that they don't even need to make up words.

  4. One is that companies feel...

    Sorry, no.

    Shouldn't the consumer bear some responsibility for this?

    According to corporate shills? I don't know; why don't you tell us.

    Just kidding; fuck off and die.

    Sorry to confuse you a d/or throw your presumably-pedantic point into disarray... but not cheaper than where??

  7. Mod the fuck up.

    Your reading comprehension skills were so impressive... that you've earned your very own participation award!

  9. Re: Golden age of remakes maybe on Slashdot Asks: What's Your Favorite Sci-Fi Movie? · · Score: 0

    Ex Machina. The rest of those are... overrated... no doubt due to the fact that there's fuck-all in the way of good hard-SF coming from Hollywood (Indy filmmakers could be a different story). Of course, this is all relative (as they say in Arkansas); I can see how those flicks might seem less unpalatable if, for example, you haven't read Brin or Banks...

  10. Re: Golden age of remakes maybe on Slashdot Asks: What's Your Favorite Sci-Fi Movie? · · Score: -1, Troll

    You have low standards. Let me guess: young? :)

  11. Better yet... on Slashdot Asks: What's Your Favorite Sci-Fi Movie? · · Score: 3, Funny
    Better yet, why don't you tell us yours,/I> msmash... but can you make it as entertaining as this line from your summary??

    ...that are far from ever getting displaced by the reboots spree that the Hollywood is currently embarking.

    Did you have to run that through a translator a couple times to get the desired effect? ;)

  12. Of the $2.8B loss, a bit over $2.6B went to drivers.

    Now that's funny... they had to pay their drivers and "apparently took a loss doing so." I wonder if they'll ever figure out where to source those funds from...

  13. If it really is genetic (the racist point of view) then nothing anyone can do will change things because the problem is inherent.

    And if you travel around, meet enough Africans and black Americans... you'll know it's not; it's clearly cultural.

  14. I know one thing I haven't tried: praying with liberal use of incorrect grammar... maybe Fundamentalists are onto something.

  15. ...a faith world

    Nonsense is so entertaining. Okay, not really.

  17. Re: NK *is* a credible threat on North Korea Parades Hybrid 'Frankenmissile', Then Fails Yet Another Missile Launch Test (cnn.com) · · Score: 1
    These aren't the Russians we're talking about; NK's subs aren't going to get within launch range of the U.S. coast for another thirty years: if they were even able to come up with nuclear replacements for their diesel/electric propulsion systems, we'd hear the cooling systems from hundreds of miles away. Besides, which is more likely: that they're this bad at testing rockets or that the U.S. has the ability to take them out at launch?

    their glorious leader regulary displays... extremely small-minded decision-making.

    Somehow that family has managed to stay in power for nearly seventy years; CIA memes notwithstanding, he's likely far more capable than mainstream consumers of propaganda likely realize.

    CNN did not attempt to shape the elections. They reported facts. You just don't like the facts.

    Sure, dude; whatever you say...

    Sure sounds good on paper, doesn't it?? Thing is, actually believing it... sort of makes you out to be a complete fucking moron... so you probably don't want to do that. ;)

    It may be recursive... but if you're not qualified to slap a copy of Mint on some generic hardware, you're not qualified to even ask that question.

    Don't let the door hit your fat ass (a statistically likely assumption) on your way out.
