  1. Re:Then maybe you should be. on India's $20 Android Tablet First Project Completed · · Score: 1

    The raspberry pi costs about $50 and is even less powerful than the least powerful of the tablets above. (and it doesn't even have a screen or input device)

  2. Slow, little CPU usage, feels like an Android game on Epic and Mozilla Bring HTML5 OpenGL Demo To the Browser · · Score: 1

    I tried the demo. It feels extremely slow despite very low CPU usage (15%) and a high-end graphics card.
    It might be a problem with latency or responsiveness, but it's definitely not as smooth as an AAA game.

    Graphics-wise it also feels like an Android game.
    Shitty flash games actually look better than this.

  3. Report the unfollowed bugs on Ask Slashdot: How To Handle a Colleague's Sloppy Work? · · Score: 1

    Simply report at your meetings with your manager that a lot of bugs are appearing, being assigned to him and being ignored.
    There is nothing more annoying than someone that ignores bug reports or that doesn't fix problems he just introduced when they are pointed out.

  4. You can blame environmentalists for this on Energy Production Is As 'Dirty' As Ever · · Score: 1

    And the irony of this is that you can blame environmentalists for this.
    Had they not prevented nuclear energy from being used massively, we would have mostly clean energy, with the added bonus of a better economy that would rely on importing fossil fuels much less.

  5. Re:Only true for a small portion of the world on Grocery Delivery Lowers Carbon Dioxide Emissions Over Individual Trips · · Score: 1

    A cart, you mean this thing we evolved into the car?

  6. Re:We Wish on Ask Slashdot: What If We Don't Run Out of Oil? · · Score: 1

    We'll never have to switch to renewable energy, because there is no way we can ever run on renewable energy. All we can do is incorporate renewables to cover a small percentage of our energy needs and make hippies feel good.
    If the Earth runs out of the resources we need, we'll just have to mine them elsewhere.

  7. Re:Grocery? How 20th century on Grocery Delivery Lowers Carbon Dioxide Emissions Over Individual Trips · · Score: 1

    I'll tell you who: normal people.
    Only people with too much money and time on their hand will go buy high-quality meat or other farmer products regularly.

  8. Re:Use your feet. on Grocery Delivery Lowers Carbon Dioxide Emissions Over Individual Trips · · Score: 1

    Their own great grandfathers worked in a farm and traded their goods against other food at a local market. Maybe we should do the same instead of being lazy.
    The grandfathers of those people even went to hunt animals to eat them! We should just do that instead!
    All this industrialization of food is just for lazy people.

  9. Re:America-centric much? on Grocery Delivery Lowers Carbon Dioxide Emissions Over Individual Trips · · Score: 0

    That's not sane, that's idiotic.
    There is no way a bike could carry one week worth of groceries for a family, especially if you buy bottled water or even beer.

  10. Re:Only true for a small portion of the world on Grocery Delivery Lowers Carbon Dioxide Emissions Over Individual Trips · · Score: 1

    If you go there by foot or by bike, it means you cannot buy much.
    Therefore you need to go much more often and that you'll rarely buy any heavy goods.

  11. just educate the astronauts on Space Coffee, Just the Way You Like It · · Score: 0

    Coffee is better black and strong, without any additional ingredient.
    Otherwise it's not coffee, it's just sweetened water.

  12. BFS and BFQ finally included on Linux 3.9 Released · · Score: 1

    No, just kidding.

  13. In related news... on The Text-Your-Parents-Your-Drug-Deal Experiment · · Score: 5, Funny

    ... The FBI has dismantled a large network of drug dealers apparently led by a man named Nathan Fielder. Having failed to secure the drugs, the FBI has seized their computers instead to examine possible connections with other drug dealing groups.

  14. Sorry, but... on KDevelop 4.5 Released · · Score: 0

    ... I'd rather have a framework- and technology-neutral development environment.

  15. Re:Great news! on 'Master Gene' Makes Mouse Brain Look More Human · · Score: 1

    You mean like we used to be able to buy humans for chores around the house?
    How long before mouse slavery is banned too?

  16. All hail hackers on New Console Always-Online Requirements and You · · Score: 5, Funny

    A hacker will provide a fix to remove that always online requirement. Problem solved.

  17. Re:They will still come... on Why We'll Never Meet Aliens · · Score: 1

    Humans taste about the same as pigs.
    I wouldn't call that the finest delicacy.

  18. Re:lame on Why We'll Never Meet Aliens · · Score: 1

    Do you seek out ants to teach them the value of freedom?

  19. Re: Wow, this is stupid. on Why We'll Never Meet Aliens · · Score: 1

    And they probably took all the dinosaurs, too.

  20. Re:Two words on $5 Sensor Turns LCD Monitors Into Touchscreens · · Score: 1

    why do you need a TV control? You already have a smartphone.

  21. Re:Happy with XFS on Btrfs Is Getting There, But Not Quite Ready For Production · · Score: 3, Informative

    Ever heard of the sync command?

  22. Re:Teh hell on 3D-Printed Gun May Be Unveiled Soon · · Score: 1

    Ethics are relative and change with every person.

  23. Re:Teh hell on 3D-Printed Gun May Be Unveiled Soon · · Score: 1

    To clarify, according to US law, you can build a semi-automatic gun without any sort of license and registration, but you can only build an automatic gun with a license and if not sold to the government it must be destroyed.

    The law is probably much more restrictive in other countries, where owning any sort of weapon requires registration.

  24. Re:Teh hell on 3D-Printed Gun May Be Unveiled Soon · · Score: 0

    That's a bad analogy: copyright infringement is illegal, building a gun isn't.

  25. Re:in joules. please on Scientists May Have Detected Neutrinos From Another Galaxy · · Score: 1

    But can we harness that power to make magic?
