  1. Laura Poitras needs to smarten up on Citizenfour Director Sues To Find Out Why She Was Detained Every Time She Flew · · Score: 1

    40 detentions by DHS and Laura still travels with her camera full of pictures, her notebooks full of notes and likely a cellphone full of contacts. Please! Someone tell Laura about the Cloud.

  2. Re:Gone too soon on Movie Composer James Horner Dies In Plane Crash · · Score: 1

    Horner will be missed by all lovers of film music. He was one of the very best Hollywood had to offer and left us with a vast array of memorable scores.

  3. Re:Facebook ignorance. on Facebook's Absurd Pseudonym Purgatory · · Score: 2

    "...forums like Facebook serve as the modern-day equivalent of the public square for a lot of communities."

    Is there a way to identify these communities? Just trying to avoid areas of mass stupidity where Facebook somehow supplanted actual news outlets.

    Those who feel Facebook is in the position of being a modern day times square have obviously never heard of a troll before.

    Enjoy.

    I solved the Facebook problem by finally getting off it. Glad I did so.

  4. Recommended Fixes on US Tech Companies Expected To Lose More Than $35 Billion Over NSA Spying · · Score: 1

    One of the recommended fixes to this problem as stated in the article is "Complete trade agreements like the Trans-Pacific Partnership" - to which I say BULLSHIT. Americans do not want the TPP or anything like it.

  5. Top Publishers To Post News Stories Directly To Fa on Top Publishers To Post News Stories Directly To Facebook Timelines · · Score: 5, Funny

    This is great! i know everyone will enjoy the additional tracking these news publishers will employ. And thanks for giving me another reason to celebrate finally being off Facebook.

  6. Re:SuperCard on It's Time To Revive Hypercard · · Score: 1

    Good point: I used HyperCard to manipulate information not to create games. Objectives vary.

  7. SuperCard on It's Time To Revive Hypercard · · Score: 4, Informative

    We already have a pretty nice 3rd party product called SuperCard which is very compatible with Hypercard. At $279 its not getting much traction. Apple should buy this product and ship it free with every Mac.

  8. Tesla Biography on Ask Slashdot: Best Books On the Life and Work of Nikola Tesla? · · Score: 5, Informative

    in 2013 the new Tesla Biography "Tesla - Inventor of the Electric Age" by W. Bernard Carlson was published. This book dispels many of the popular myths surrounding Tesla and is extremely well researched. Recommended reading for Tesla fans.
