  1. Yikes. on 64GB MS Surface Pro Only Has 23GB of Free Space · · Score: 1

    I can see the advertised storage being ~10% higher than actual useable space, but on the order of 50%??? That seems like a boneheaded move. come on MS...

  2. Lightsabers? on Has the Mythical Unicorn of Materials Science Finally Been Found? · · Score: 0

    Only useful thing i can think of...

  3. Wow on Star Wars Fans Plan Full-Size Millennium Falcon Replica · · Score: 1

    That guy even has his own Carrie Fisher. Nice. (the young carrie fisher, not the modern one)

  4. I was just feeling very hyperbolic at that moment. But any little thing added to the pile will help people pay attention, and dammit, people like their googling.

  5. Good. on China Blocks Google.com, Gmail, Maps and More During 18th Party Congress · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Now let these companies stand strong, don't budge, and the people will become restless, they will become angry, and they will revolt against their government. Irony. The thing they are trying to prevent will cause a spark that will lead to their downfall.

  6. I can't explain it but, on Study: the Universe Has Almost Stopped Making New Stars · · Score: 5, Insightful

    for some reason this makes me incredibly sad.

  7. In this house we obey the laws of THERMODYNAMICS!! on A Piezoelectric Pacemaker That Is Powered By Your Heartbeat · · Score: 1

    right?

  8. Re:How about a re-boot of Episodes I through III? on Disney to Acquire Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode 7 Due In 2015 · · Score: 1

    I've thought hard about this, and i think you're absolutely right. Initially, i was more interested in what del Toro's take would be on the final transformation of vader. however, there are too many good bits in Episode II that would be awesome with his touch.

  9. How about a re-boot of Episodes I through III? on Disney to Acquire Lucasfilm, Star Wars Episode 7 Due In 2015 · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Screw the later ones. Redo!
    Episode I: Directed by J.J. Abrams

  11. Re:I'll believe it when I see... on Warp Drive Might Be Less Impossible Than Previously Thought · · Score: 1

    Based on context, i'm going to assume this is a goatse link. It has to be....has to....

  12. Re:Public's View of 4chan on 4chan Undergoing Major Revision, Getting Public API · · Score: 0

    And the Roman Catholic church is still thought to be full of pedophiles, even though it's only a few priests who actually are, and all government officials are accused of being corrupt, even though most are making an honest effort to do their jobs right.

    Actually, you are wrong. Every priest is a pedophile, as in....they are ALL attracted to little boys, not that they've all necessarily acted on those impulses. Think about it, who in their right mind would ever submit to a life of celibacy when one could simply be a preacher in another christian religion and be able to marry a woman? Who actually makes that choice? (the answer is: pedos). It's like those guys that say homosexuality is a "choice". Ummmm....yeah....it is a choice for you because YOU'RE GAY

  13. But.... on Apple Tells Retailers To Stop Selling Certain Samsung Devices · · Score: 1

    But, since it's "not cool", and I own one anyway, doesn't that make me "cool" again? Kinda like those hipster faggots and their instagram app, fuck me, how uncool is that? But its cool 'cause it looks shitty. See?

  14. Re:Really Slashdot? WTF? on World's Hardest Sudoku · · Score: 1

    Tone it down you stuttering bald fuck? Fat chance!

  15. Really Slashdot? WTF? on World's Hardest Sudoku · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Some excellent news about the Higgs particle is announced more than 0.5 hr ago, I come hear to Slashdot to read what everyone has to say.....and the font page headline here is about motherfucking Sodoku. Really? Are the editors asleep, apathetic or all of the above? Fuck.

  16. Santorum claiming that.... on Santorum Calls Democrats 'Anti-Science' · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Santorum claiming that environmentalists are "anti-science" is like saying anti-rape activists are against sex. What a fucking lunatic, I can't believe this is the best the GOP can come up with. Are they sitting this one out or something?

  17. That wasn't his only fuck up on Steve Appleton, Micron CEO, Dies In Plane Crash · · Score: 1

    He was clearly in communication with the tower as the plane was rapidly loosing airspeed, asking permission to turn around and land. WTF? I mean seriously, whats the first fucking thing you learn as a pilot? It's amazing how that brain can fart, even for an experienced guy like this. RIP.

  18. Round trip? on New Exoplanet Is Best Yet Candidate For Supporting Life · · Score: 1

    Who said anything about a round trip? This would be a one way ticket, multiple generations born on a ship.

  19. Re:Ugggg...I clicked on that link, and you... on Zynga Accused of Cloning Hit Indie iPhone Game Tiny Tower · · Score: 1

    Kid? Ha! I wish. My first ballistics game was scorched earth (DOS prompt and all...maybe around high school i think.....). I suspect there were games even before that (actually chucking shit at other shit with a real tank or trebuchet for instance).
    My point was, however, being made in terms of TOUCH input games, not necessarily ballistics games in general.

  20. Academics vs. Industry on Scientists Organize Elsevier Boycott · · Score: 1

    I only see one signature from an industrial person so far. I don't think this is going to mean anything unless the industry folks support it, I think they're the ones paying for a lot of these fees without thinking twice...

  21. BS on Zynga Accused of Cloning Hit Indie iPhone Game Tiny Tower · · Score: 1

    I find this almost impossible to believe. crush the castle is terrible. It's a terrible, terrible game. I want my 0.99c back. I can't believe I paid the same price as angry birds.
    It is a terrible implementation of the ballistics game concept. I call Shenanigans on your reply.

  22. Ugggg...I clicked on that link, and you... on Zynga Accused of Cloning Hit Indie iPhone Game Tiny Tower · · Score: 1

    ...know what? I'm so sick of this "angry birds is a ripoff of crush the castle" bullshit. The first time I saw a thread complaining about this, I went out and purchased crush the castle to see for myself. Bullshit. CTC is a fucking shitty game with 0-style and 0-replay value, sloppy implementation of touch controls and sloppy design. Saying angry birds is a ripoff of CTC is like saying a Nissan GTR is a ripoff of 1971 Ford Pinto. Bullshit.

  23. Re:Insider.. it's all insider.. on Former Dell Execs Involved In Massive Insider Trading Probe · · Score: 1

    Still insider. Only someone with access to an ECN terminal could do this that quickly. Us regular people never have the opportunity.

  24. Awwwww....my wife and I share passwords on Teens Share Passwords As a Form of Intimacy · · Score: 1

    But that's just a matter of convenience, as are all things related to getting hitched (love? what's that?)
