  1. Re: Frogs on France's 'Culture Tax' Could Hit YouTube and Facebook · · Score: 1

    Yeah but then Tarantino makes a weak copy and all the critics collectively shit their pants for joy.

  2. Re:Seriously? on CSI Style Zoom Sees Faces Reflected In Subjects' Eyes · · Score: 1

    How can anyone be expected to recognize anyone they don't know?

    Even without context that's a tricky one.

  3. Re:Jokes on them. on CSI Style Zoom Sees Faces Reflected In Subjects' Eyes · · Score: 1

    There's a thing called portrait rights although according to Wiki it's officially called personality rights in the English speaking world (or at least where the editor lives).

  8. Re: What is the best way to buy some in bulk? on 60% of Americans Unaware of Looming Incandescent Bulb Phase Out · · Score: 1, Insightful

    If freedom to you is about the kind of crap you can buy in a store then the chains that keep you bound are between your ears.

  9. Re:They named a country after a bird? on Prime Minister Wiretapped — Vast Corruption Upending Turkey's Government · · Score: 1

    If you can find any country in the world where there isn't rampant corruption and bribery and other shenanigans, I'd like to hear about it.

    Here you go. Denmark seems rather nice.

  10. Re:OK.. on Prime Minister Wiretapped — Vast Corruption Upending Turkey's Government · · Score: 4, Informative

    There is no major news agency in Europe reporting about this outside of Turkey.

  11. Re:Bunny-ears lawyer on The Power of the Hoodie-Wearing C.E.O. · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Actively examining relative levels of conformity of yourself and others is probably a strong indicator. Going out of your way to be scruffy, wacky or rebellious is playing a part as much as wearing a suit and tie.
    Stop comparing yourself to others. Try to be kind, and if you can't be kind try to be polite.

    It's a small point compared to all the other legitimate gripes here, but what's the deal with that horrible bland and ugly theme on Slashdot mobile?

    If the alternative is not having one of these to keep you alive your perspective might change.

  17. Re:They didn't pack a 3D printer? on Rough Roving: Curiosity's Wheel Damage 'Accelerated' · · Score: 1

    I agree. The rover only has itself to blame. It should go on a diet and stop complaining about sore feet.

  18. Re:What's the point? on Life-Sized, Drivable 500,000 Piece Lego Car Runs On Air · · Score: 4, Funny

    Anonymous Cowards see him rolling.. They hating.

  19. Re:Inbreeding? In a Small Tribe? I'm SHOCKED! on Genome of Neandertals Reveals Inbreeding · · Score: 1

    The summary clearly states inTERbreeding, the title turned it into inbreeding which is more or less the opposite. But this is Slashdot where the editors can't write and the posters can't read.
