  1. lifelong microsoft user here. on Windows 9 Already? Apparently, Yes. · · Score: 0

    I have MSDN, and can pretty much choose which OS to use... my surface pro runs 8.1, every other machine I use or installed runs windows 7. I love the underlying tech in 8, but the metro thing turns me off on a non-tablet... having said that, I like it on the tablet :)

  2. Isn't it ironic on NSA Scraping Buddy Lists and Address Books From Live Internet Traffic · · Score: 0, Troll

    That when a government department actually does its job, and does it well, everyone seems upset. I want my intelligence community to be competent, get all the information we need to protect our interests, and do it well, and the NSA has done this and then some. Their only mistake was perhaps a lack of internal security. Instead of criticism, they should be commended for a job well done. The world is not a safe place, and information is power. I want the good guys to win. I'm a Canadian, but I support the NSA, and the job it does to protect American (and indirectly) Canadian interests.

  3. Use a keyboard with a built in usb hub on Ask Slashdot: Monitor Setup For Programmers · · Score: 1

    I use a g15, and plug in my mouse into one of the ports, so only one cable to plug into laptop. I also make the external monitor the "main", and only use the laptop monitor for command prompts, output windows, tests, etc. When you're on the road, your laptop monitor becomes the main

  4. sign me up for the 27" tablet/phone on Smartphone Screen Real Estate: How Big Is Big Enough? · · Score: 1

    seriously, I'd buy one the instant it comes on market.

  5. phishing attempt...? on Ask Slashdot: Identity Theft Attempt In Progress; How To Respond? · · Score: 1

    are you sure they're actually trying to create those accounts, and not... sending you false emails/links to cause you to "change your password", login to check on stuff via a dummy link that masquerades as the original sites authentication pages?

  6. sounds like a great mythbusters episode... on al-Qaeda's 22 Tips and Tricks To Dodge Drones · · Score: 5, Interesting

    does hiding under a tree really protect your from a predator drone?

  7. Fingerprints different for twins on French Police Unsure Which Twin To Charge In Sexual Assaults · · Score: 1

    Why not use fingerprint evidence (if there is some).

  8. use natural logs to avoid confusion on When 1 GB Is Really 0.9313 Gigabytes · · Score: 1

    just specify all sizes as e^x
