    So we should remove all speedometers from cars?

  2. Re:Troll v Troll on Professional Internet Troll Sues Her Former Employer · · Score: 1

    Basically, the internet is trolls all the way down.

    I don't have anything to add, but I thought that should be posted again.
    Oh...you're a moron.

  5. Let's just post all of our cards on line now on Staples: Breach May Have Affected 1.16 Million Customers' Cards · · Score: 1

    Then no one can claim that hacked anything. We can all say, "Bullcrap! You downloaded that off PostYourCC.com!"
    Besides, they can't use all of them.

  7. Re:As a Market Lover on Microsoft Quietly Starts Accepting Bitcoin As Payment Method · · Score: 4, Informative

    I don't know that BTC will ultimately prove to be the way to go, but I do think something like that will catch on in a big way. If you haven't seen it, Andreas M. Antonopoulos's video about BitCoin is pretty informative. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

  8. Re:As a Market Lover on Microsoft Quietly Starts Accepting Bitcoin As Payment Method · · Score: 4, Funny

    We should stay with current systems that keep us safe from all fraud and irregularities.

    And I imagine it'll suffer the same fate.

  12. Re:The over-65's swung it for No on Scotland Votes No To Independence · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It is possible that they looked the issue over and decided to vote No. Just because some over 65 disagrees with you does not mean they are fools.

  13. This! on Ask Slashdot: How To Start With Linux In the Workplace? · · Score: 1

    "Now the problem is what works perfectly fine for me may be a horrible experience for some of my coworkers," So glad to hear some one advocating Linux say this. It's not all about MY experience and if YOU don't like it then that's YOUR problem.

    Got ya. (Puts down flame thrower).

  15. Re:Crashplan on How Do You Backup 20TB of Data? · · Score: 1

    So you want free-multiTB-offsite-encrypted backup that completes in an hour? Backup is hard to do. I'm not sure what you're expecting.

  16. Re:Crashplan on How Do You Backup 20TB of Data? · · Score: 2

    You can backup(encrypted) to a friends computer and not use CP stuff at all. Check out the Local and Offsite plan. https://www.code42.com/store/

  17. I don't see how any comment on this story... on FSF's Richard Stallman Calls LLVM a 'Terrible Setback' · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    ...can get a +5 interesting.

  18. Re:I'm not worried... on PC Shipments In 2013 See the Worst Yearly Decline In History · · Score: 0

    I agree, only with a tad less snark. But you are right, most people do not need the full power of the PC. Email, Web, streaming video. If a device does those three things then what else do you need? What's that? It makes calls too? One less device to buy. Heck, most people don't use the full power of their phone.

  19. We apologize again for the fault in the subtitles. on Chinese Icebreaker Is Stuck In Ice After Antarctic Research Vessel Rescue · · Score: 1

    Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked have been sacked.

    If it turns out he's a replicant, then yes, retired would be the correct word.

  21. Re:What people have to realize is that... on Torvalds: Free OS X Is No Threat To Linux · · Score: 1

    I fondly remember the month of the Amiga desktop.

  22. Do you have anything without fraud in it? on Experian Sold Social Security Numbers To ID Theft Service · · Score: 1

    Well, there's substantive fraudulent frolicking fraud sorbet. That hasn't got much fraud in it.

  23. Re:well... on No, the Earth (almost Certainly) Won't Be Hit By an Asteroid In 2032 · · Score: 1

    I think your comment just undid your undoing of the aforementioned mod.

    http://golang.org/ You won't regret it.

  25. Re:Gamestop already rip off customers on Xbox One: No Always-Online Requirement, But Needs To Phone Home · · Score: 2

    Sell the game yourself, there are a number of ways to do it. If you don't like going through the process of collecting payment, packaging the game and shipping it yourself, well, that's what you are paying GameStop for, not having to deal with the aggravation.
