>>>maybe they should stop paying for fucking cable
Ya know it helps if you read the WHOLE post, because I already addressed that issue. Quote: "And next Comcast (along with the FCC and other CATV companies) want to shutdown channels 25 and up to eliminate competition from Free TV. That will effectively force people to upgrade to Comcast TV or Comcast Internet." i.e. They'd have no choice but to "pay the fucking cable" bill.
You addressed the issue? Where?
And there's plenty of choice. Maybe you can start by lifting that lumbering fat ass from the couch and turning off the television.
You are indeed an F'd up sadistic moron. Really. Do you carry four pair of pants with you at all times? One for general use and the other three for your major customers. Holy fuckin' shit.
So you bitch about not knowing something and then when people graciously try to help you out, you verbally shit on them? Don't ever ask me for help. And enjoy your wasted bandwidth that you're too incompetent to fix and to assheaded to accept help with.

Meh. They'd rather rant instead. I guess it makes them feel important or something.
I don't suppose anyone here knows squat about the double taxation trap corporations face. Oh no, it's much more fun to rant and flame when you're uninformed.
I'd take a photo of my asshole and mount it in front of the camera. And I'm sure I could figure out how to redirect an 80's porn groove into the mic input.
You kind of missed the point. He's not asking how he can resume sessions. He's asking whether it's safer to leave an ssh connection open all the time or establish a connection when needed.
I'm not sure why the parent was marked "insightful".
The crux of the parent post is: "smart" people lack confidence, therefore confident people are not smart.
Because that's insightful.
Most people don't realize that (to quote a bad cliché) the more you learn, the more you realize you don't know. So a person who's confident that they know all there is to know on a subject is quite likely less knowledgeable than the person who doesn't make that overreaching claim.
I use proper spelling and grammar everywhere except when I have to specifically shorten a post to make it fit into a tweet. But that's conscious space-saving editing, not a foolish attempt to "save time."
I agree. Text speak is in no way time saving. It is, however, a great signal for low intelligence and/or education.
We also have a proficiency test at wsu.edu. Students that fail it must take remedial tutoring. I taught some sessions for a few semesters and the attitudes of the engineering students were shocking. I feel sorry for some of their future job prospects.
I would say, "What the hell is up with all your random unnecessary pauses?"
Without changing your text at all, this is what I'd write. The semicolon could also be exchanged for a period.
Some say that Idiocracy was a documentary sent back from the future and that The Man needs a dumbed-down populace to keep the likes of Walmart and the current political system in business; all we know is that popular culture emphasizes dumbness over intelligence. Welcome to 2010.
Oh, wait, they do. Maybe it really has something to do with what they've stated many times. Flash is CPU hungry and would eat the battery for lunch. Yes. It's garbage. I'm happy that my phone doesn't do flash.
I mean, seriously, this looks like the author stuck a pencil in his ass and poked it at the keyboard a few times. Did anyone read it before voting it to the front page?
A "software based wireless router" is going to change everything?! ZOMG! However do they do that? Wait, what? Linux and OSX have been doing this for... well basically forever?
Who the hell writes these? Much less puts them on the front page of slashdot.

It is not a fix. At all. I ended up reverting mine back to OS 3.1 because it was so goddamn painful.

So basically there's no good use for the iPad for people too stupid to think of a good use for it.

.... I read slashdot all the time on my iphone. Don't know what you tards are wanking about.
And for what it's worth, the iphone browser runs on webkit. Which is the same engine that powers chrome that you probably rub one out to every night.
no. Prefer. By far.
All this article shows is that the author can type better on a physical keyboard. Nothing else. What a waste of 30 seconds of my time.

The spoken vernacular is quite different from written literature.
perhaps I misread your post.
You did.

He is correct. As are you.
Read that last sentence as "There's a plethora of "u"s unnecessary to American English, e.g., colour vs. color."
Not that anyone should be taking grammar lessons from someone who thinks he's cool because he can write without capital letters.
She wouldn't believe me.
Hello dictionary?
I did the same thing in my Honors English class in high school when I showed my teacher the difference between bizarre and bazaar.

Yes, I'd rather they focus on the shit that I actually use.
And each additional option they add reduces usability. Come out of your basement someday.
That must be why they don't let you run web apps!

Flash can be made most secure by simply getting rid of that garbage.
