  1. Re:Seriously? on Automakers Struggle With Pairing Smartphones To Car Infotainment Systems · · Score: 0

    Cadillac Cue is built on Linux.

  2. Re: Stallman would have something to say about thi on Call Yourself a Hacker, Lose Your 4th Amendment Rights · · Score: 1

    It's more like if you claimed to be a professional killer and later claimed you kill deer.

  3. Re:Great on Ubuntu Touch On a Nexus 7: "Almost Awesome" · · Score: 2

    How much freer could Android be? The entire platform is open source.

    The only thing proprietary are the video drivers and that's because GPU vendors are douche bags.

  4. Haha on TSA Airport Screenings Now Start Before You Arrive At the Airport · · Score: 3, Funny

    One thing I've noticed as a passenger is that the most dangerous-feeling aspect of flying right now seems to be the winding security line itself.

    You've obviously never ridden on a CRJ.

  5. Re:700 million euros? on Finnish Team Makes Diabetes Vaccine Breakthrough · · Score: 0

    Yeah but think of how many porsches and ferrari's need to be bought, along with home many regulatory bodies and legal authorities whom need to be jerked off to get this going.

    We deserve to be hit by a meteor.

  6. Re:This is ridiculous! on Why Does Windows Have Terrible Battery Life? · · Score: 0

    Slashdot? No...

    THIS IS MICROSOFT SHILLBOT WANKFEST!

    *kicks OP in the face and he then falls into a well*

  7. Re:Probably a downmod coming but.. on Experian Sold Social Security Numbers To ID Theft Service · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Agreed. I'd vote for hanging some of the Experian exec responsible for this.

  8. Re:How is this surprising... on IE 11 Breaks Rendering For Google Products, and Outlook Too · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The architecture of web applications on the client side is screwed up.

    It was originally designed so non technical people could create content and now it's been pressed into service doing extremely complex things.

    The web fucking sucks.

  9. Re:Noooooo on NFTables To Replace iptables In the Linux Kernel · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Okay so after RTFMing, I like the changes.

    It reminds me of the ip command, which is so much better than route.

    NFTables FTW!

  10. Noooooo on NFTables To Replace iptables In the Linux Kernel · · Score: 5, Funny

    All my precious iptables knowledge gone!

    Linus hates us precious! Hates us!

  11. Re:Microsoft needs to stop fucking up the PC on Windows RT 8.1 Update Pulled From Windows Store · · Score: 2

    Are they killing the platform or opening the door so it can be freed?

  12. Re:On the other hand on Windows RT 8.1 Update Pulled From Windows Store · · Score: 5, Funny

    Except, unfortunately for you, it's still a Surface Pro.

  13. Re:Not just for weapons on US Should Cancel Plutonium Plant, Say Scientists · · Score: 1

    And time machines, think of the jiggawatts these cores could produce! Great Scott!

  14. Re:There goes another one on Wireshark Switches To Qt · · Score: 2

    He'll switch when Microsoft does.

  15. Re:Death wants to be freeeeeeeeee! on USS Zumwalt — a Guided Missile Destroyer Running On Linux · · Score: 1

    That's an interesting point. I wonder what filesystem these Linux systems are running? Perhaps the Navy is the organization that secretly bought Hans Reiser's assets a few years ago.

  16. PCLoad Letter? WTF does that mean? on Ask Slashdot: What Are the Hardest Things Programmers Have To Do? · · Score: 3

    Deal with clueless management.

  17. Re: Hazard on Volvo Developing Nano-Battery Tech Built Into Car Body Panels · · Score: 2

    But we Slashdotters say Ni!

  18. Re:Left out an important one on Ubuntu, Kubuntu 13.10 Unleashed · · Score: 4, Informative

    GNOME is the only DE more fucked up than Unity.

  19. Re:Ubuntu good for linux? on Ubuntu, Kubuntu 13.10 Unleashed · · Score: 1

    And nothing was lost.

  20. Re:Also: Xubuntu 3.10 on Ubuntu, Kubuntu 13.10 Unleashed · · Score: 4, Funny

    Xubuntu 3.10 now has support for virtual memory!

    Awesome! Maybe my new 56k modem will have a working driver!

  21. Re: what I want to say is, on Is Choice a Problem For Android? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Yep and Apple was a very formidable, entrenched competitor who was the previous market leader and had decades of history.

    Android supplanted them in a few short years.

    Android's biggest problem is fucking retarded articles like these.

  22. Re:Yes, it does on Xerox "Routine Backup Test" Leave 17 States Without Food Stamps · · Score: 0

    Hear hear!

  23. Re: YOLD! on Battlefield Director: Linux Only Needs One 'Killer' Game To Explode · · Score: 1

    Yep, especially lame ones like the above.

  24. Re:YOLD! on Battlefield Director: Linux Only Needs One 'Killer' Game To Explode · · Score: 1

    The GPP specifically said "G5 PowerBook."

  25. Re:Steam broke my linux system on Battlefield Director: Linux Only Needs One 'Killer' Game To Explode · · Score: 1

    This is probably Linux's biggest hangup for desktop acceptance at the moment.

    The video drivers are fucking terrible.
