  1. Re:Democracy. on Go Daddy Loses Over 21,000 Domains In One Day · · Score: 1

    Because buying shit longterm is only useful if you're going to stay in one place for the rest of you life (or haul a bunch of crap around). Youths are likely to strap on a backpack and hit the road. They don't need long term stuff.

  2. encoding on Ask Slashdot: Best Kit For a Home Media Server? · · Score: 1

    You seemed unsure about encoding. I suggest h.264 video and AAC audio, since it's the only thing supported by Flash, Silverlight, iOS, Android.

  3. Android 2.2.1 can be non-intuitive. on Nokia Exec: Young People Fed Up With iPhone and Android · · Score: 1

    1. You cannot forward text msgs on Android.
    2. You cannot open pics that someone MMSs to you outside of the txt app.
    3. There is no memo. I cannot take a note. Well, there is a memo app, but damned if I can figure out how to run it.
    4. If you receive a txt, you cannot click and call them. You have to exit the txt app, and find them in your contacts.
    5. It's very hard to send a txt to multiple people. You have to know how their name is stored in your phone and type in their name. You cannot browse your contacts and click a box to send to multiple people like a normal phone.

  4. Re:There wouldn't be any of this on Mexican Gov't Shuts Down Zetas' Secret Cell Network · · Score: 1

    In many professions marijuana can be a work motivator. Especially anything involving repetitive tasks or unskilled manual labor: ditch digging, sliming fish, etc..

  5. Re:What? on USPS Ending Overnight First-Class Letter Service · · Score: 3, Funny

    In forensic circles it's known as a "Ferric Semi-sealed Dihydrogenmonoxide Phase Change Apparatus".

  6. Inflatable robots really piss me off. on New 'Rubber Robot' Crawls Through Small Spaces With Inflatable Limbs · · Score: 1

    I don't know why, but they do.

  7. Re:Completely off topic, but... on How Publishers Are Cutting Their Own Throats With eBook DRM · · Score: 1

    sshhhhhhhhhhh

  8. This article makes no sense. on Bulldozer Server Benchmarks Not Promising · · Score: 4, Funny

    Bulldozers do not make good servers. Use a computer. Problem solved.

  9. Re:ahh, different Baron-Cohen on When Geeks Meet, Are They More Likely To Have Autistic Kids? · · Score: 1

    Also, Sacha.

  10. Re:Identifying what exactly? on Anonymous Takes On a Mexican Drug Cartel · · Score: 1

    Anonymous is not a thing that be assigned attributes/adjectives. It is an abstract concept defined by the fact that it cannot be defined. As such, it is blameless.

  11. Re:Recognises words, that's about it. on Siri Envy? Iris Brings Some Voice-Assistant Features to Android · · Score: 1

    It can't understand you because you don't speak American.

  12. Re:Name one non-rapator that uses flapping for spe on Winged Robots Hint At the Origins of Flight · · Score: 1

    quail

  13. Re:Fuel efficiency on Mazda Stops Production of the Last Rotary Engine Powered Car · · Score: 1

    You get 49mpg? Subaru's site says it only gets 27mpg highway 20mpg city. http://www.subaru.com/vehicles/impreza/index.html

  14. Search only works if you know what to search for. on Putting Emails In Folders Is a Waste of Time, Says IBM Study · · Score: 0

    For example, say various chicks are constantly emailing you. So you create a "chicks" folder. Then on Friday night you want to get laid. Are you going to remember the chick's name that sent you BIE (boobies in email) two weeks ago? Of course not. That's why you separate emails into folders.

    The premise of TFA is completely implausible.

  15. Answer to question about NAT on Extension To Chrome Brings Remote Desktop Abilities · · Score: 1

    In case you're wondering out it works around NAT on both ends.

    FTA: "Bottom layer is p2p connection established by libjingle [a Google collection of peer-to-peer software tools], this can be UDP, TCP, or relay through Google."

    In other words, at least one "client" needs to have a port forwarded from the NAT firewall. Otherwise, it will still work, relaying through Google.

  16. Answer: on Ask Slashdot: Clever Cable Management? · · Score: 1

    Free twisty-ties from the grocery store.

    I agree! We must continue to use fossil fuels forever.

  19. Re:Am I the only one... on Build Your Own Camera, Launch It Like a Grenade · · Score: 1

    hmm I wonder why you got -1. Anyways. I don't get it. I look on my user page it shows my comment score is 4. I click comments it shows 5. I look at the thread, it shows 5. The user page should show 5. So.. the user page only goes to 4? Doesn't make any sense.

  21. Re:I am anonymous. on Syrian Hackers Deface Anonymous' Social Network · · Score: 1

    Also, I take responsibility for 911 since no one else has.

    Why, you ask? Well... that is obvious. Because there are no Krispy Kremes in Kandahar! Selfish American pig-dogs. How much longer did you think you could withhold your sugary deliciousness?

  22. I am anonymous. on Syrian Hackers Deface Anonymous' Social Network · · Score: 1

    I take responsibility for this and all other hacks.

  23. Re:Maybe not Zimbra on Ask Slashdot: Self-Hosted Gmail Alternatives? · · Score: 1

    Imagine if you had to go to preferences and then click a button! That would be like %100 worse.

  24. Re:Maybe not Zimbra on Ask Slashdot: Self-Hosted Gmail Alternatives? · · Score: 1

    Oh my! The only way to turn HTML on or off is to go to Preferences and switch it???????????? What a horrible problem.

  25. Re:SquirrelMail? on Ask Slashdot: Self-Hosted Gmail Alternatives? · · Score: 1

    Fair point. Squirrel Mail has no threads. But, at least Squirrel mail has the concept of "moving emails into folders" properly, instead of that shit label thing gmail has.
