  1. gmail sucks on Is Google the New Microsoft? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Good think I saw this before hitting 'moderate'

    Its possible gmail search works grand for you, but its complete and utter shit for me! Their inept search doesn't find tons of words that I KNOW are in the mails!

    I have to pop it all to do offline searching because the search i gmail is utter crap.

    Now i suppose its possible I've run into a bug, but you can't report bugs to google because their whole "support" website boils down to "go away user"

    (Now some fanboy may say that there is a "report bug" menu item from one of the "menus" on the site - NO - there isn't - perhaps that's another bug from the company who only cares about who you are, and nothing about what you want)

  2. What does it matter? on Osama Bin Laden Didn't Encrypt His Files · · Score: 1

    They found the files AFTER they killed him - he probably didn't care by then.

  3. Re:Are users app-blind? on Apple Blocks iOS Apps Using Dropbox SDK · · Score: 1

    Well perhaps the greedy (tax avoiding) assholes at apple would probably block the website?

  4. Life on Is Middle Age Evolution's Crowning Achievement? · · Score: 1

    "We are born knowing and being able to do almost nothing. "

    And most die that way.

  5. I think less of him on Magician Suing For Copyright Over Magic Trick · · Score: 1

    I think less of him for having a video removed from youtube - he didn't make, he had nothing to do with it, and even if it resembles his trick its non his to remove.

    Fuck you Mr. Teller i hope you lose.

  6. The US jumped the shark on Florida Thinks Their Students Are Too Stupid To Know the Right Answers · · Score: 1

    So why are you surprised?

  7. Years too late Google on Google Drive Launching Next Week With 5GB Free Space · · Score: 2

    After you have been forcing G+ on everybody I'm never going to use any of your new services.

  8. Man says time passes... on Losing the Public Debate On Global Warming · · Score: 1

    Time says man shall pass.

  9. Rubbish on Magical Thinking Is Good For You · · Score: 1

    "Another favorite type of magical thinking is empathy. "

    Bullshit, if you think empathy is "magical thinking" then you don't know what it is.

    Now to say ALL humans have empathy, THAT would be magical thinking.

  10. Your's is also nonsense on Magical Thinking Is Good For You · · Score: 1

    "I think you are thinking of a complete belief in magical thinking, whereas this is talking about the "magical" type of thought that "this car does not like you to use full throttle until its warmed up", or feeling anger at a beer bottle with a top thet "doesn't want to come off". If you stop and reflect of course you know its nonsense, but I bet you sometimes have those thoughts anyway."

    Neither of which are relevant to what is being talked about, it doesn't make you a happy fulfilled person to "believe" "this car does not like you to use full throttle until its warmed up"

  11. And so the Internet is guilty on Internet Responds To Racist Article, Gets Author Fired · · Score: 1

    You DO NOT solve problems by SUPPRESSING FREEDOM OF SPEECH - you address speech you don't like with more speech.

    If you can't or wont do that (and no excuses are good enough) then you are part of the problem.

  12. Perhaps their strategy is... on Wikipedia Mobile Apps Switch To OpenStreetMap · · Score: 2

    "... it costs us a fortune to do this shit, someone better start paying."

    ??

  13. That's what you think! on Bogus Takedown Notice Lands $150k Settlement In Australian Court · · Score: 1

    The US are planning an invasion as we are typing this!

  14. And they are all planning to invade us! on Nearby Star May Have More Planets Than Our Solar System · · Score: 1

    Unless we get there first! After all there may be oil!

    Go go go!

  15. And you thought Girls Around Me was bad... on Google Glasses Announced · · Score: 1

    ... well perhaps you didn't.

    Just think of the apps you can run on this - where are the girls? Just look up and there is a big virtual arrow in the sky pointing!

  16. Hell no on Notch Wants To Make a Firefly-Inspired Sandbox Space Game · · Score: 1

    Run around putting out fires!? Hell no

  17. Bullshit on Ask Slashdot: How Have You Handled Illegal Interview Topics? · · Score: 0

    "Emigration status and citizenship status cannot be asked. I've been in the interviewer position for mor than a few high level security jobs and have been advised to rephrase those questions ..."

    So you did ask the question, you just asked it in such a way that could you avoid the law - because you are above the law.

  18. Never autoupdate anything on Firefox: In With the New, Out With the Compatibility · · Score: 2

    Rule number one. Never auto update, it just screws things up.

  19. So they aren't hiding them anymore? on Google Using ReCAPTCHA To Decode Street Addresses · · Score: 1

    So many addresses has been fuzzy that I could that could only be a strange design choice.

  20. Re:Extended Support Release on Firefox: In With the New, Out With the Compatibility · · Score: 1

    Whatever that is.

  21. Only one solution on Cops Can Crack an iPhone In Under Two Minutes · · Score: 1

    Don't get caught! ;)

  22. "undisclosed vulnerability" ? on Cops Can Crack an iPhone In Under Two Minutes · · Score: 1

    So the moment they fix that, the company is out of business?

  23. It is Apple on What's Not To Like About New iPad? · · Score: 2

    Well, you asked.

  24. Or on Windows 8 and Screen Resolution: WXGA Still Most Popular · · Score: 1

    The "just about readable" resolution. Since most programmers don't give a shit about people actually being able to read their interfaces, and since windows scaling sucks big time, most of us don't go too big on resolution.

  25. Piratebay in space? on NASA's Kepler Discovers 11 Systems Hosting 26 Planets · · Score: 1

    Hosting in space? Is that their next move?
