  1. exactly what we need on Has Apple Made Programmers Cool? · · Score: 1

    programmers in it for the cool ... next thing you know 90% of applications is cool looking crap, 9% great looking eyecandy and almost 1% useful, how cool would that be, the best wizards hardly ever leave their ivory tower, not in the books, not in the real , the others are just wannabe's and salesmen with a enough knowledge to bluff the common man into a sense of need

  2. george orwell on Oxford City Council Mandates CCTV Cameras In Taxies by 2015 · · Score: 1

    hippies ... losing track of reality since 1960 ... wearing funny costumes on wall street thinking it will lol bankers into obedience ... wasting money on campaigns that dont touch anyone but the ones already in the group ... convinced that their 50 year old progressiveness is better than the other sides restrictiveness, a fresh approach would be a nice thing to see indeed, sea kittens ? LOL

    ofcourse it can, just look at what batman and lex luthor have achieved over the last few years

  7. it's inevitable i think on Star Trek Online Going Free-To-Play In January · · Score: 1

    except for the ones who feed on junkies they have trapped years ago and cant let go of their precious level 180 characters there's just too many f2p alternatives, and i can see why startrek would go f2p, i tried the trial once and it bored me out after five minutes or so ... probably directed at trekkies ... as of late DCUO has gone f2p and while its pretty brainless its kinda fun just hanging on the couch and hacking away at the do-gooders with a joypad. I have to admit i was sceptic at first but the game definitely has some serious entertainment value. and it's free :) last night, i tried to spend $5 to get premium and show appreciation but they wouldnt even open up the store so i guess sony doesnt need my money :p: p:p

  8. Re:They found the farts of God! on Pristine Big Bang Gas Found · · Score: 1

    i'd say atheism is dogmatic unbelief, just like fundamentalism is dogmatic belief , it's absolute rejection without proof of the opposite whereas the other one is absolute acceptance without proof , to me atheism and fundamentalism are both one and the same : fanaticism, until i see one of them proven, i'll just go for the uncertainty principle :-)

  9. directx 11 on What's Keeping You On Windows? · · Score: 1

    that spells games + f2p and freeware (games), who needs any windows application ? mac is for people whos head and wallet are bigger than their brains and i prefer a diy-kit to something 'as-seen-in-hollywood-movies' thats too expensive for what you get anyway but what's keeping me on windows ? games :-)

  10. Re:Fourth Amendment down the drain on Judge Rules Twitter Data Fair Game In Wikileaks Investigation · · Score: 1

    let's suppose we already knew this, why do people involved in high risk activity use emails with their names on, or twitter accounts for that matter ? the need to go down in history? it seems to be that need that brings them down anyway, but maybe not in history ...ego my dear frendz, ego ... the mitnick didnt boast on national tv he was going to hack the man did he ? got caught anyway, i know, 9 out of 10 its ego and boasting and the feeling of i'm the man that leads to sloppy behaviour

  11. Re:That would also make it awkward for search engi on Upcoming EU Data Law Will Make Europe Tricky For Social Networks · · Score: 1

    where it says difficult it does not say impossible, i'm sure there will be many ways to use these laws from both sides of the fight, its a step in the right direction

  12. i fear on Ask Slashdot: What To Do With Spammers You Know? · · Score: 1

    the thievesguild manual of citizen survival clearly states you can only rat on paedophiles, rapists and sociopaths who kill for personal pleasure or cos they cant get it up otherwise, any other case it's done at own risk (its been a while since i read the manual tho might have been adapted but i guess not)

    yea, i was just wondering if it's large or heavy enough to make the worldly waters move ? we can has tsunami ? let's hope not or maybe let's hope its big enough to whack the whole planet at once if it does ... wallstreet crisis solved

  15. i think there's only one solution to this, for everyone to stop buying dvd's blurays and cds until bully organisations like this are forced to step down, or just a global agreement to not pay any fines inflicted because of them

  16. Re:If they need something to do, on AMD To Lay Off 10% of Global Workforce · · Score: 1

    my though as well, intel could scour them for the people with most knowledge, pay them a fair price and kick them back out to the streets after they have extracted all relevant information, not that they need it since AMD somehow saw fit to pursue a product doomed from the start, labelled as inferior by the whole potential customerbase and incapable of technically competing even with any of the most recent yet older products of their only competitor, a clear cut case of ego in the way of business and its always the same layer who has to pay the price

  17. Re:One small victory for a man.. on Censored Religious Debate Video Released After Public Outrage · · Score: 1

    and the part where 60% of americans object to evolution nearly dropped me from my chair ... is that an accurate estimate omg ???

    the kind where there was no science before there were books confuses me a little ... i don't think writing would have been possible without the inquisitive mind being there first, is this a chicken or the egg thing ?

  19. Re:Waiting for MS to underbid on Schools In Portugal Moving To OSS · · Score: 1

    why would this set anything back, thing about working with computers is you have to master the basics, if you do, it really doesnt matter what office suite or anything you use on which OS since they are all pretty similar, i have seen this a lot when people who dont really have a clue or dont really have the interest teach 'informatics' because its a little extra pay. They take this step by step declaration of every menu-item approach, specific to windows ofcourse, and people are like scared if they have to open openoffice or anything or gods forbid on another os, since they 'don't know it' , it seems this way of teaching blinds them from the fact that even the menu-structure in similar software packs is as good as the same, they just dont look at it somehow. so maybe this is a good thing for these students then :)

  20. Re:America on Weaponizable Police UAV Now Operational In Texas · · Score: 1

    As long as law needs to be enforced, there is an underlying problem that needs to be adressed. It is the only way it works. Your national anthem might seem a bit sarcastic at some times but i can assure you you don't have monopoly on redneck-isms and rambocops. Everything is based on treatment or rather removal of symptoms, from medicine, to law enforcement, to about anything. It's like, just make it go away and ignore where it came from is the solution to everything. Maybe we should elect provost Zakharov and Lady Deirdre and Roze and call out an independent nation ...

    mhm, if Samsung can provide me with a smartphone with options i use, i won't mind if it has less options on it , as long as the price is affordable (which indeed, it is really not, i see people paying like half their monthly wage sometimes to get a 'real' iPhone, just to make calls with it, sends sms and post to facebook ... its a choice ofcourse

  25. is this one of those cases where on FAA Goes To the Web To Fight Laser-Pointing · · Score: 1

    You like leave all doors open and go on a two week holiday to come back and find out the house has been emptied? So you blame it on the passers-by ? Or when a kid accidentaly succeeds in hacking into a military network from his little room in the attic and you don't blame it on the admins who are supposed to secure the nation ? Or like, if someone with a toy laser can bother airplanes actually you're going to ignore that if its harmful it can be used by actual enemies in actual warfare and just sue civilians for acting like baboons then ? right, i see your ... no i don't see your point, i see what you're doing tho, same as always, i think its best to hang some lawyers in a public place for malpractice or something to discourage them from encouraging stuff like this. If it's harmful at military level, you should try to find a solution for it, not force ordinary people not to do it, because as with every so-called solution these days, that is NOT adressing the real problem ...humans ... tsssss
