  1. i'm afraid on History Will Revere Bill Gates and Forget Steve Jobs, Says Author · · Score: 1

    unless you're a serious mass murderer to the point of genocide or at least millions have died in your name, you'd have to be some kind of truly enlightened figure to last at least one Thousand years so from my unique pov down here i'm afraid neither of them will last long enough to call it history tell me who's von neumann?

  2. sure on Audacious Visions For Future Spaceflight · · Score: 1

    all revenue from trolling cases goes straight to nasa but the trolls themselves can keep the moral win if they like, that should solve two bits at the same time

  3. Re:No problem on An HTTP Status Code For Censorship? · · Score: 1

    Overhere you get a nice kind o page saying like : sorry but we have to block this , even if they didnt really have to since the court order turned out to be full of holes they just comply with it, no one cares about it ofcourse and everyone just proxies all the way to venus so the whole thing was a dud but it seems to have helped to soothe the bark of the hyena's just a little bit. No one with half a mind could take it seriously it just shows the generation gap in all its contrast and i fear there's way more problems to come if ever they understand the pirate bay is just one site ? I think that's more a headbutting contest where the HAVE to get it down to save face by now since they Always get back on their feet no matter what. It's somewhat the largest middle finger on the internet and they can't pry it from their arse so far. If you're the position of power that must be pretty nasty. Reason or 'protection' has nothing to do with it

  4. Re:Nice summary! on China Plans Manned Space Mission This Month · · Score: 1

    nevertheless, the point i see here is the chinese go for it while the rest keeps slacking he who controls the skies etcetera, the american military still seems to think that's about stealth bombers then ?

  5. your friend should apply and see what happens, if he dont he'll never know, if he does he loses nothing

  6. i didnt know on Game of Thrones The Most Pirated TV Show of the Season · · Score: 1

    slashdot was subject to irrelevance and clickhunting, how could it not be, what kind of massmedia post is this

  7. is this the self-repairing hull i read so much about when i was the innocent kid ?

  8. i think on Sprint Moves To Eliminate 'Blood Minerals' From Cell Phones · · Score: 1

    (too much?)
    that's something that should be discussed at government level, as i see it, ,no one gives a shit about the whole continent after it got dug out, only the chinese seem interested in at least putting up some sweat shops in the sand where the others just send food and weapons for the warlords now who's the hippie and who's right here ?

  9. Re:Awesome... on Apple Granted Broad Patent On Wedge-Shaped Laptops · · Score: 5, Insightful

    i kinda like the icon for the topic here, who cares about patents .. the chinese dont, the russians dont, the indians dont, and if africa ever gets on its feet i'm sure they wont

  10. Re:whats so horrid about it on LinkedIn Password Leak: Salt Their Hide · · Score: 1

    the inability to edit is the best and worst part at the same time, its like quantum science, right, schrodingers inability .... yea, they obviously were marketing interim kinda people who thought they saw a gap with no actual idea of how it works, on the other hand, who cares if your linkedin gets hacked, when it comes to PayPal i change my password everytime i pay for something but when it comes to any other site i dont care if it gets hacked since it would be a waste of time, anyone seeing the spam well, i guess maybe i'm just pretty recognizable, who cares man, they failed, no one paid end of story, they suck :-)

  11. whats so horrid about it on LinkedIn Password Leak: Salt Their Hide · · Score: 1

    id put linkedin or any other social networking site on my usual password list where i wouldnt put ebay or PayPal .... what baffles me most is why no one is cashing in on the password gap the risk maybe? the impossibility to secure? so far i never heard of facebook, or microsoft or google being hacked , i wonder what happened to sony still i still suspect some inside penetration there who's gonna make a buck providing the world with that one simple login then? probably some indian or asian guy i guess

  12. Re:WTF? on Odd Laptop-Tablet Hybrids Show PC Makers' Panic · · Score: 1

    its a good thing sand is the last stage of erosion or else all that silicon would be quite costly wasted on a whim without a thought

  13. Re:This Can't Be Happening!!!!! on Will IBM's Watson Kill Your Career? · · Score: 1

    so emm,
    it sounds like a real nice expensive ploy to have something able to store more facts and recall them for a popquiz, but how does this watson really work
    does it just store and recall, like most average students with persistence would get above average scores because they store extensive amounts of data without really getting it or being able to link this bit to the other, one keyword invokes a set of data, just like a search engine would, right
    or does it try to simulate a human brain, i dont think that is the case since no one understands it yet
    that's why einstein was einstein, neutrinos or not

  14. Re:facebook is dead on Facebook Launches App Center With Over 600 Apps · · Score: 1

    naah they're not they're just gonna have to tone it down a notch, the unwillingness of people to change should not be underestimated, the vampirism of what's called investors neither, nothing really happened, a bubble of air got so hot all the oxygen spontaneously combusted and some people are left with a few blisters, stocks have no 'not satisfied-get money back' label on them as far as i know, fb still has what, about one seventh of the world number of accounts? if only for brand name recognition its an invaluable advertising tool, i'm sure there's a busipsy here and there who sees that, the fixation on unlimited growth however might be a cold shower in these years and some to come

  15. life's gonna be so cyberpunk on Canadian IP Lobby Calls For ACTA, SOPA & Warrantless Search · · Score: 1

    goths will feel like they created the world and Le philip de Dick will be tossing around in his grave partying til eternity o no wait, i meant like terminator-esque, o no wait , i cant find the right novel / movie to compare it with, hunger games was so oscarry and mostly boring

  16. Re:People should pay for their choices on California City May Tax Sugary Drinks Like Cigarettes · · Score: 1

    as if that money will be spent on health care an astonishing new tax, i wonder how long it will take for our mayor collective overhere to pick up on it, they already wasted the small pubs , next the supermarkets ? i wouldnt mind that since a supermarket like employs less people than what would be needed if it were all small stores, they suck up a lot of money and most of it will be going to the foreign company that owns it but in the end who pays ? i guess that's the same everywhere then

  17. Re:That's good... on CERN: Neutrinos Respect Cosmic Speed Limit · · Score: 1

    after long and arduous research , we have finally found something that doesnt force us to disbelieve in everything we held to be true , i think it's a bit sad, it could have been the start of something that was actually new , its been a while

  18. Re:Global leader in music sales... on Canada No Pirate Nation: Global Leader In Music Download Sales · · Score: 1

    yea, i see mtv and warner, lady haha and justin blabber ain't broke yet, the ones who don't get downloaded seem to have a hard time getting a deal ... sony kicks out 10k+ people and blames it on the yen for a change (how nice sony, thanks) and the world just keeps breeding more and more .... homo sapiens

  19. is this something like on FBI Used FedEx To Sneak Dotcom's Hard Drives Out of NZ · · Score: 1

    the belgian constitution offers protection of secrecy and privacy 'for any letter given to the post office' roughly translated, so just in case it would come in handy they could snoop on your emails and sms at anytime without a warrant and risk of procedure fault ? probably problem with the necktie idiots building loopholes in their laws just in case is that anyone can use them

  20. how should i say this in the most diplomatic way? on Is Microsoft's Kinect a Gaming Failure? · · Score: 1

    YES

  21. so how about two different places of origin on An Asian Origin For Human Ancestors? · · Score: 1

    because the circumstances allowed similar evolution? climate, supernovaparticles? big monoliths, who knows how it works yet? no one
    i find similarities in the sound of language where i'm from and japanese but none in any of the african sounds, its far fetched ofcourse, and it might indeed lead to master race theories but still, why couldnt it have been like that? All these duds with their huge theories dont have actual proof, just a little evidence and a lot of deduction

  22. Re:I took his AI class on Online Courses and the $100 Graduate Degree · · Score: 1

    woaw...the current system i'm in would let me get a masters for about 15000 euros by the time i'm done... because i never finished the hiskool years or whatchu call it overthere i cant just attend normal college because i lack the paper of submission i would have been granted by doing it according to the rules when i got 18... this sounds really great altho in this shithole the degree would ofcourse not be accepted since the government didnt make any money on it...for someone willing to move across the globe this could definitely be a ticket out of nowhere to a place where life might work

  23. Re:Already broken on EU "Clean IT" Project Considers Terrorist Content Database · · Score: 1

    the only problem is the millions of euros some smart IT dud will charge because the 'project is so vast and complex it will be very hard to etcetera) , it's useless, i'll agree to that but it remains money pit and waste (as usual)

  24. government has open policy when on UN To Debate Taxing Internet Data · · Score: 1

    you live 30 km from brussels but you have to read that shit here first, this looks like its evil beyond soapy anc acta, especially the part where , like, EVERYTHING gets throttled

  25. Re:Curiosity as a crime on Could Cops Use Google As Pre-Cogs? · · Score: 1

    there's startpage, and duckduckgo and some other nice vpn-tunnely things that should make it kinda not possible for anyone who hasnt infected your computer to see what you were looking for but i read the germans have been doing that for long (all in the name of public safety ofcourse, so i wouldnt be surprised at all if the us and uk do that as well, what wasnt clear there is if their official government screenshot-malware was used for windows only or if they had the stuff to infect an -uxbox as well
