  1. Those poor bastards on Australian Government To Standardise On Drupal · · Score: -1

    Working with drupal is a nightmare. Drupal 8 is looking much better but all below are just terrible to work with.

  2. Re:I will point out... on British Police Censor the Global Internet · · Score: 1

    he said majority share, not majority.

  3. Re:Freedom of thought on App Detects Neo-Nazis Using Their Music · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Did you decide to fly in the face of most political scholars and historians to try and score some political points by describing Nazism as left wing?

  4. Re:This just in on Plastic Waste Threatens Marine Diversity · · Score: 2

    You have to understand the obvious before you can really do anything realistic to help the situation. Always surprises me seeing these types of comments on slashdot.

  5. Re:You're correct, mostly on Disabled Woman Denied Entrance To US Due To Private Medical Records · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I could be described as liberal, I think the over reaction to children playing with toy guns, drawing guns etc is absolutely ridiculous. What I find more ridiculous, is peoples inability to understand liberal and conservative are not two molds where everyone thinks exactly the same and has the same reaction and level of intelligence. Stop turning politics into a tribal war thinking there are two distinct sides, and one is out to get you.

  6. Re:Let me guess on Science Museum Declines To Show Climate Change Film · · Score: 1

    What are you on about? Are you conflating right wing politics and the christian right? Stop doing that, makes you look dumb to the rest of the world.

  7. Re:Let me guess on Science Museum Declines To Show Climate Change Film · · Score: 1

    Or you could accept that problems have a variety of solutions all with cons and pros, some could be described as lefty, some as right, some as authoritarian, some as libertarian, and all of the spectrum in between. To suggest "lefty policies cause problems rather then solve them" is just as disingenuous as ascribing the same to right leaning policies and only furthers the tribal break down of politics in contemporary America.

  8. Re:Let me guess on Science Museum Declines To Show Climate Change Film · · Score: 1

    Just as bad in general, maybe, but on science denial? Are you just ignoring reality there?

  9. Re:Fixed summary for you on Science Museum Declines To Show Climate Change Film · · Score: 1

    americans + politics = whole new lexicon.

    Nothing means what you think it means.

  10. Re:What could possibly go wrong? on Demo of Prototype Virtual Retinal Head Mounted Display · · Score: 1

    Images are drawn onto your retina every waking second of your life.

  11. Re: Oh, the irony... on International Space Station Infected With Malware Carried By Russian Astronauts · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    No they didn't. And what sort of proof is that anyways?

  12. Re:Speed of...light. on Swiss Government Backs Privacy Oriented ISP · · Score: 1

    It's not. Especially with CDN's.

  13. Re:Netflix wants to DRM the web on Netflix Pursues Cable-TV Deals · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The same way DRM destroyed the open computer? I dunno about you but I can still do whatever the hell I want on my computer, and can circumvent DRM if needed.

    I'm no fan of DRM, but it's a compromise I'd be willing to make to bring the movie and tv studios inline with the music industry, and if history is any guide, after a few years the tv and movie people will agree to drm-free releases as did the music industry. Play the long game, not the reactionary steadfast to ideology game.

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

    You have to ignore the existence of steamOS for your post to really be relevant.

  15. Re:Coming soon to your country. on Saudi Justice: 10 Years and 2,000 Lashes For Internet Video of Naked Dancing · · Score: 1

    The times they did?

  16. Re:Coming soon to your country. on Saudi Justice: 10 Years and 2,000 Lashes For Internet Video of Naked Dancing · · Score: 1

    Someone, somewhere, right now, is killing a baby in your country. Go.

  17. Re:CMS? on Dangerous VBulletin Exploit In the Wild · · Score: 4, Funny

    When vbulletin was bought it was turned into a bloated piece of crap. It's only gotten worse since.

  18. Re:Wages as share of GDP dropping since 1972 on Digital Revolution Will Kill Jobs, Inflame Social Unrest, Says Gartner · · Score: 4, Funny

    Sshhhh! Don't let reality affect your ideology!

  19. worst case of slashdot editing in a while? on Health Exchange Sites Crushed By Demand; Shutdown Blanks Other Gov't Sites · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Seriously, simple typos and grammar mistakes get through now?

  20. Re:Priorities on U.S. Government: Sorry, We're Closed · · Score: 1

    It's nice living in Britain, where the houses are built with bricks :p

  21. Re:Priorities on U.S. Government: Sorry, We're Closed · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I have a locked door sure, but I don't have a 10 inch thick armored steel plated vault door installed in my house either.

  22. Re:three? on Middle-Click Paste? Not For Long · · Score: 1

    I never said expensive, just not cheap. Something I use every day, that is going to take a lot of clicking and moving, I want something better then a £5 mouse.

  23. Re:three? on Middle-Click Paste? Not For Long · · Score: 4, Informative

    Stop buying cheap mice then? All the mice I've bought over the last 5 years have all had great scroll wheel clickers.

  24. Re:Obligatory answer: on Is HTML5 the Future of Book Authorship? · · Score: 1

    You can't vertically-align objects without scripting.
    Yes you can.

    You can't define a horizontal-scrolling element without scripting.
    I don't even know what you mean. Do you mean like a carousel? You can, but clunky.

    You can't define a non-scripted grid-like layout with proportional, fixed and content-dependant sizes mixed together
    Sure you can.

    It lacks a simple, integrated, templating and data-binding system
    So people build their own, mustache, handlebars, ember.js etc

  25. Re:Obligatory answer: on Is HTML5 the Future of Book Authorship? · · Score: 1

    Yeah, because those white hick towns are so much safer and nicer. It's all about poverty dude.
