  1. Re:Going by Mr. Musk's other fancy projects.... on Elon Musk Explains Why He's Building 'Starship' Out of Stainless Steel (popularmechanics.com) · · Score: 1

    You know there are many varieties of stainless steel? Some are extremely tough proprietary alloys like Inconel or Monel. This isn't your cheap 316 kitchen sink steel.

  2. American company using imperial units?

  3. And see where it got them. A niche browser used by a few zealots and neck beards.

  4. Perhaps you missed the part about Firefox only having 5% market share. Firefox imploded when they became Chrome Junior and worried more about social issues and screenshot sharing tools than making a good browser.

  5. Can we please route Twitter off the internet? It does nothing of value.

  6. Good job Slashdot on Is the iPhone SE the 'Best Minimalist Phone' Right Now? (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Thanks for telling me about the sale after its over.

  7. Re: How 1984 of them on Google Urged the US To Limit Protection for Activist Workers (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Would you consider company email as being private?

  8. WaPo runs anti trump stories daily because during the election Trump threatened to revoke their press passes.

  9. I work with an engineer who has 20 years of EE experience and he is the most incompetent person in the company. He's barely done anything in four years.

  10. Because coders can't stop coding. Quit adding shit for the sake of adding it. You're done, stop, move on to another project. At some point your project has evolved to a pinnacle and anything you do from there on detracts from it.

  11. Re: Good on Chinese Scientist Who Gene-Edited Babies Fired by University (reuters.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    There is one reason for the FDA having slow approval, thalidomide.

  12. Re:About time! on MIDI Association Announces MIDI 2.0 Prototyping (hackaday.com) · · Score: 1

    Why fix what isn't broken?

  13. Re:Rian Johnson killed Star Wars on Is Disney's Star Wars Franchise In Trouble? (cosmicbook.news) · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Have you watched Star Wars before? Terrible dialogue and so so acting with the good vs evil story line. Sure the original movies set the bar for special effects but that was it. The prequels were 100% garbage. I liked Rogue One though.

  14. Looks like $300k in Seattle gets you a one bedroom condemned trap house https://www.zillow.com/homes/f...

  15. run TempleOS?

  16. Re:Maybe they ran out of leaks? on Windows Leak Site BuildFeed Closes Down (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    I was thinking more like lack of demand. Every update they release is worse than the previous one. Nobody wants to see the garbage being churned out.

  17. Re:Used to think containers & virtualization g on Hack Allows Escape of Play-With-Docker Containers (threatpost.com) · · Score: 1

    IBM has been doing it properly since the 1980s.

  18. Let me get this straight on Hack Allows Escape of Play-With-Docker Containers (threatpost.com) · · Score: 1

    Libraries are such a problem that you need virtual filesystems from the developer to actually run their program?

  19. We don't need that shit running in the background. Much like every windows program that wants to run at startup.

  20. Re:A gimmick, that is all. Harrier, FOI. on Is Elon Musk Serious About Building A Flying Tesla? (inc.com) · · Score: 1

    Harrier jets need something like 10 hours of maintenance for every hour of flight time.

  21. Re:Any New Info? on The US Government Has Amassed Terabytes of Internal WikiLeaks Data (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Bernie had a better chance of winning than Hillary but they didn't want him. They bet everything on her and lost.

  22. Re:Why would you put wifi on the CPU. on Intel Demonstrates 10nm Ice Lake Processor, Promises PCs Will Ship With it Later this Year (theverge.com) · · Score: 0

    You know AMD has the exact same thing but called the PSP? No they won't disclose the details of it either.

  23. You clearly know nothing about engineering or how people use computers to do actual work. Can you recommend a software package for Linux that lets me model drawings and objects in three dimensions and simulate the physical forces applied to them?

  24. Pretty sure Ubuntu is sending your data to Amazon...

  25. Can you point me towards the Linux builds for SolidWorks and Altium Designer as I need to get some work done. Also video editing is a hobby so how about Adobe Premiere?
