  1. You must be new here on Recent Apple Java Update Doesn't Fix Critical Java Flaw Claims Researcher · · Score: 1, Insightful

    The janitors running this site can't even be bothered to read submissions over for spelling and grammar mistakes.

  2. Full of shit on Apple v. Samsung Jurors Speak, Skipped Prior Art For "Bogging Us Down" · · Score: 0

    This trial was down the street from Apple and the jurors were probably god fearing patriotic 'muricans who weren't about to let those foreigners into our country. The jury foreman was 67 years old! It claimed he had an engineering background but we all know lawyers don't like logical thinking. Lawyers want juries full of wishy washy idiots for are easily swayed emotionally.

  3. Re:tag 'inaccuratesummary' on Assange Makes Statement Calling For an End To the "Witch Hunt" · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Hell every story would be tagged that way. The janitors who run this site can't spend two minutes fact checking submissions that are already days behind Fark or Reddit.

  4. He loved suing EVERYONE on Google Seeks US Ban On iPhones, iPads, Macs · · Score: 4, Interesting

    He sued the mac rumors website for talking about rumors for upcoming products. I believe it was over the G4 toaster design,

  5. Yeah they are on BitTorrent Tries To Appease Users By Making Torrent Ads Optional · · Score: 1, Insightful

    uTorrent is given away although you have the option of paying. If you are given something for free (as in a gift from someone else) you have zero room for bitching. Now had you paid $10 that's a different story.

  6. LOL on BitTorrent Tries To Appease Users By Making Torrent Ads Optional · · Score: -1, Troll

    So don't update to the newest version then. What crybabies, its free anyhow.

  7. Can someone explain the iPad popularity? on How Will Amazon, Barnes & Noble Survive the iPad Mini? · · Score: 1

    I can't understand why people go full retard over buying the iPad. It costs almost double what a laptop does and does not have a keyboard. It has no means of expandable storage (besides SD card), its too big to fit into a pocket and does everything a cell phone does except make calls. Why are these so popular?

  8. Re:Why are they suing everyone? on Why Apple Is Suing Every Android Manufacturer In Sight · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Most of this duplicate functionality you speak of are things too simple to patent, or should not be patented in the first place. Plus Apple would not have a phone today had they not licensed tons of other technology. Is duplicating functionality really illegal?

  9. Is this a joke? on Ask Slashdot: How To Run a Small Business With Open Source Software? · · Score: 1

    Honestly I can't tell if you are serious or not. postscript and lp? Is this 1988?

  10. Re:Or just use Bittorrent on How To Watch Internet TV Across International Borders · · Score: 1

    Its on the Velocity channel a lot.

  11. Dear Slashdot.. on Ask Slashdot: Understanding the SNES? · · Score: -1, Troll

    I've never heard of google, how can I find technical information for the SNES console?

  12. real work on UEFI Secure Boot and Linux: Where Things Stand · · Score: 1

    Your version of real work is different from mine. I use programs like Autocad, Solidworks, and Altium to do my job and they all run without issue on Windows XP or 7. Yeah windows is a different environment and you're not willing to admit that.

  13. And its so cheap on FCC Rules That Verizon Cannot Charge For 4G Tethering · · Score: 1

    I'm on the $25 "grandfathered" data plan. 300 talk minutes and unlimited data (2.5GB limit until throttling). Still only $25 a month without a contract, beat that.

  14. Re:WTF Apple?!? on Company Claims 80% of Facebook Ad Clicks Are From Bots · · Score: 1

    You must really be new here...

  15. Please elaborate on Political Science Prof Asks: Is Algebra Necessary? · · Score: 0

    How does math help you understand the world?

  16. Platters no way on Can a Regular Person Repair a Damaged Hard Drive? · · Score: 4, Informative

    You will have great difficulty taking the platters out. The read heads have to be removed without physically coming into contact with the platters. You'll need specialized fixtures and tooling to even begin. If the data is that important then send it to a professional.

  17. Re:Not just Minecraft on Patent Troll Claims Minecraft Infringement · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Honestly it would be cheaper to just put a hit on the guy doing all the lawsuits.

  18. Re:LOL on Gooseberry Launches Android-based Raspberry Pi Rival · · Score: 1

    Yeah I know hes Korean but it sounds like something that he would claim. Plus the allwinner a10 is priced at more than double the Pi.

  19. LOL on Gooseberry Launches Android-based Raspberry Pi Rival · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Every mention of the Raspberry Pi has comments to this glorious Allwinner chip the chinese seem to be pedaling. Sounds like Kim Jong Ill himself cast the silicon with his very fingerprint! The goal of the Pi is low cost, not performance.

  20. Re:McD in Paris? on McDonald's Denies Prof's Claim Staff Attacked Him For Wearing Digital Glasses · · Score: 1

    Are you aware that Paris is arguably the culinary center of the world and the French are also some of the largest consumers of meat in europe? Sounds like you never heard of Yelp or hell even google.

  21. Re:would i rather on Why Amazon Wants To Pay Sales Tax · · Score: -1, Troll

    If you live near a ghetto Walmart full of ignorant blacks you'll realize why people don't shop there.

  22. They started ignoring keywords on Startup Aims For $99, Android-Powered TV Game Console · · Score: 1

    Half the time my search results end up having little to do with the words I used. Putting quotes around the words fixes that problem but come on google. Once I searched for "arduino pelco" and google decided pelco was similar to lcd and changed it for me. Great job,

  23. Re:Or just browse the thing while running Linux on Criminals Distribute Infected USB Sticks In Parking Lot · · Score: 4, Informative

    Actually auto run is no longer turned on by default in windows. XP had an update that disabled it.

  24. Re:English please? on Raspberry Pi Model A Makes First Appearance · · Score: 1

    I didn't have any problems reading it. Maybe a grammar nazi could point out the issues?

  25. LOL on Slashdot Asks: Beating the Summer Heat? · · Score: 1

    If "BUY MORE FUCKING HELP" you mean pocket all the profits and re-invest nothing? Then its correct.
