  1. Don't forget all the options on Theory Challenging Einstein's View On Speed of Light Could Soon Be Tested (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Is interesting to remember that may be possible that there has not even been a big bang to start (and therefore the answer may be that the universe has always been more or less uniform).

  2. Re:Energy Crystals on Scientists Turn Nuclear Waste Into Diamond Batteries (newatlas.com) · · Score: 1

    Interesting thinking.

  3. Re: Bad year for the big 2. on iOS 10.1.1 Is Causing Battery Issues For Many iPhone Users (itwire.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    You need to pull the pin first

  4. Ve for Vendetta? on 48 Organizations Now Have Access To Every Brit's Browsing Hstory (zerohedge.com) · · Score: 1

    British government working hard to make this dystopian society into a reality?

  5. Missing tip on UK Revises Safe Flying Drone Code (bbc.com) · · Score: 2

    Do not shoot missiles at people, homes or other drones. Except if the other shoot first

  6. True. I'm not saying that electronic ballot boxes are infallible, but it's much easier to rig the opinion polls than an electronic ballot box.

  7. Re:But will it run Crisis at max settings? on US Sets Plan To Build Two Exascale Supercomputers (computerworld.com) · · Score: 1

    Interesting question.But I personally did not play any of the new releases to make a suggestion (except the new Doom, but this one was too well done to be able to get into this "dispute").

  8. Re:Two best macbook pro 13" replacements on Slashdot Asks: Which Windows Laptop Could Replace a MacBook Pro? · · Score: 2

    A modern computer without proper support for ACPI on purpose should have a very big red warning th stay away from it...

  9. Still insisting on that? Really? Are you a cocaine user? Geez!

  10. Go bother anybody else, kid...

  11. I thought I left you in kindergarten before leaving... Would you please go back there and let the adults talk?

  12. LOL. As if crime & politics don't have reflections on each other.

    Now you're bashing both Brazil and the US. I hope the NSA takes note of your activity, asshole.

    The Trumpies are even stupider than imagined.

    Funny you say that... He's exactly the brazilian version of a Trump voter: Stupid, (very) far right-wing and who considers as mortal enemy everyone who does not think exacty like him.

  13. Oh... Did I hurt your delicate world of fantasy, monkey? Go back to Facebook, this place for the adults ;-)

  14. Re:Truly despicable on Britain Has Passed the 'Most Extreme Surveillance Law Ever Passed in a Democracy' (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1, Interesting

    You know, the way the world is going at the moment, makes me think that Latin/South America, in spite of all its woes, is the only sane region on Earth. We are actually moving toward more open societies, with more democracy. In fact, a civil war has just ended in one the nations down here. Where else you are seeing things like these?

    Back in the day, not even in my wildest dreams I would embrace the notion that Latin America would be the last bastion of freedom. Strange century, strange world.

    Think again. Right now, Brazil, the largest country in Latin America is being literally plundered by local criminals sponsored by the US and they are competing against each other to see who destroys the country first and delivers anything of value to US corporations. Democracy in Brazil was always a fantasy, now this fantasy has been torn and we are moving towards yet another dictatorship. Better you seek democracy elsewhere.

    Funny thinking, just wait until the (really) crazy ones come up with mods for the Tesla. :-)

  16. Re:PLEASE...make a sports car again!! on Tesla 'Easter Egg' Makes the World's Fastest Car Even Faster (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    My friend, I imagined the scene and found it VERY funny. Thanks for the laughs!

  17. Same thing happening very soon in Brazil... the legitimate goverment already down (paid by USA), now we have a saboteur destroying the country while the nazis will soon be on the streets. You may know how I can apply to refugee status?

  18. I am interested too... How you done the bios hack?

  19. Re:Typical of today's programmer on Spotify Is Writing Massive Amounts of Junk Data To Storage Drives (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    To be fair you can program using Java (for example) using as few layers of abstraction as you want. The problem is that the schools insist on teaching the exact opposite and in the companies there is a leveling down between those who can optimize and who can only use frameworks.

  20. Re:I'm no where near as smart as most of you.. on Leaked NASA Paper Suggests The 'Impossible' EM Drive Really Does Work (sciencealert.com) · · Score: 1

    Wrong. What I am seeing is just two very, very arrogant guys (you and the "serviscope") and just one who I think is not seeing the entire picture (David), where the three took I do not know from where the EM drive must be able to generate more energy than it receives without being able to convincingly explain how that would be possible. True, I understood perfectly the part of the acceleration math but I noticed that you and "serviscope" completely ignored ALL the other factors involved in the matter such as losses (which in a closed system as suggested would be cumulative and probably exponential, this alone stops an attempt to accelerate indefinitely), factors that make me think why in the hell you'd think it must be a perpetual machine... In short, if the EM drive were a jet turbine you're trying to convince me that jet turbine could generate more energy (as thrust) than the one received (as fuel) without having to ingest air and with the turbine generating its own fuel after the start, where what I'm seeing on my bench is a turbine that's consumes fuel, generates momentum in proportion to the fuel consumed but for some unknown reason is not ingesting air and generating exhaust. Two very different turbines.

  21. But that is exactly the problem, who will prevent the cable manufacturer from using a 30awg wire? It's cheaper than the 28awg that he should use for the work, and even the 28awg is not enough if you want to have an acceptable safety margin.

  22. Okay ... Who was the idiot who did not understand the problem I described and as he failed to understand decided to mark my comment as flamebait? The level here in the /. lowered this much?

  23. I do not know. The problem I'm seeing is that the cable needed for 5 amps would be considerably thicker than the usual (clumsy to connecting that to a cell phone) and the manufacturers are hardly going to do that.

  24. Re:Totally the right call on Google 'Strongly' Recommends Against Third-Party Fast Charging Technology On Android (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    5A into a wire of a gauge I would not put 1A? Oh my... This is a disaster waiting to happen.

  25. This. And in my honest opinion, if the 1% are in panic then it's a good thing
