  1. Re:Now if we can get this device onto storm drains on Device Mines Precious Phosphorus From Sewage · · Score: 1

    You do know where those storm drains lead to, right?

  2. Why does Facebook need to do anything? on Why Does Facebook Need To Read My Text Messages? · · Score: 1

    Is Facebook still a thing? After all we've seen, is it a legitimate product, or just an ad machine operating on top of an information gathering tool?

  3. Re:Enought with the nationalist crap on Chinese Moon Rover Says an Early Goodnight · · Score: 0

    And how many people died producing it for the glorious People's Republic?

    China sucks. It sucked before it was colonized, it sucked WHILE it was colonized, and it's especially sucked since the US sold itself to it.

  4. Entire article in summary on New Russian Fighter Not Up To Western Standards · · Score: 1, Funny

    "'...unreliable, its radar inadequate, its stealth features badly engineered,' said Indian Air Force..."

    Sounds like they're asking the Russians to Do The Needful.

  5. Re:Jet Fuel? on New England Burns Jet Fuel To Keep Lights On · · Score: 1

    "once they start running it's only a matter of time before they run out"

    Thanks, Dr. Romero.

  6. Re:In other words... on New England Burns Jet Fuel To Keep Lights On · · Score: 1

    Is it? Citation needed. What's a "normal" peak burn or set of burns?

  7. Separation of powers on Senator Dianne Feinstein: NSA Metadata Program Here To Stay · · Score: 4, Funny

    Good thing that the Legislative and Executive branches of government are set up to balance each other.

  8. Re:I wouldn't mind the free market on An Iowa ISP's Metered Pricing: What Will the Market Bear? · · Score: 1

    Who grants the ISPs the monopoly contracts in the first place? Oh wait, the elected officials.

  9. Accenture? Plan on fail on Accenture Faces Mid-March Healthcare.gov Deadline Or 'Disaster' · · Score: 1

    It would only be worse if it was Infosys. Accenture people are merely incompetent, while Infosys people are both incompetent and lazy.

  10. Re:Private enterprise to the rescue on Thousands of Gas Leaks Discovered Under Streets of Washington DC · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Except that they aren't private, they're granted a monopoly and enjoy quasi-governmental rights. This is what happens when you have the worst of both worlds.

  11. Why not just make JS cooler? on Google Releases Dart 1.1 · · Score: 1

    Make JS cooler, why start something new to fix an old problem?

  12. Phoronix + link to audio ? on Intel Dev: GTK's Biggest Problem, and What Qt Does Better · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Way to go failmitter.

    Phoronix is the TomsHardware wannabe version of the corpse of OSNews, and video/audio articles suck.

  13. Stupidest Slashdot post ever? on Why Birds Fly In a V Formation · · Score: 1

    What's next, Dr. Romero investigating the moisturizing properties of dihydrogen monoxide?

  14. Re:Did this last year on OpenBSD Looking At Funding Shortfall In 2014 · · Score: 1

    You know how electricity works, right?

  15. Re:Must be... on OpenBSD Looking At Funding Shortfall In 2014 · · Score: 4, Funny

    If he was magnetic enough, he could produce his own electricity.

  16. Re:Train the kids in valuable skills on Code.org: Give Us More H-1B Visas Or the Kids Get Hurt · · Score: 1

    All so we can pour money into India, to keep the Chinese out.

  17. 21st century consumerism on Ask Slashdot: Suggestions For a Simple Media Server? · · Score: 0

    Submission translated: "I'm hopelessly addicted to consuming content, can you help me set something up so that I can consume more?"

    Jesus, go outside once in a while, nail your wife, read a book, plant a garden... there's more things out there than digital media and how many different codecs and devices you consume it with.

  18. Train the kids in valuable skills on Code.org: Give Us More H-1B Visas Or the Kids Get Hurt · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Like asking if you want fries, or how to fill out forms to receive government cheese.
    Train what you have, fix what you have, rather than importing more of the problem. It's like selling a product at a loss, but making up the profit on volume.
    Dean Kamen is a cool rich guy, and like most rich guys, can afford to advocate things that don't impact him.

  19. Anthropology on Canadian Government Trucking Generations of Scientific Data To the Dump · · Score: 1

    I think they've already named all the spiders.

  20. Good thing Ireland is irrelevant on Irish Politician Calls For Crackdown On Open Source Internet Browsers · · Score: 0

    Other than being the burned out husk of a tech quasi-boom, Ireland doesn't really matter. It's the Midwest of the United Kingdom. Even Wales has Torchwood.

  21. Re:Travelers? why? on Government Lab Uses Smartphones To Measure Gamma Ray Exposure · · Score: 1

    The data would exist on 1000s of private sensors, so it would be useless in the aggregate. Or are you advocating seizure of the devices and data in the name of sum public good?

  22. Farming via cloning will never happen on Chinese Firm Can Now Produce 500 Cloned Pigs Per Year · · Score: 1

    Animals are good at farking. You won't beat that for efficiency.

    Now, whether or not they should be eaten is another matter.

  23. adderall on Ask Slashdot: How Can I Improve My Memory For Study? · · Score: 1

    Rail it, all the cool ADHD kids are.

  24. update feature, and eye candy on Media Player Nightingale Reaches 1.12.1; First Release Since Songbird · · Score: 1

    Firstly, autoupdate notifiers suck - they randomly chew bandwidth, and send an indeterminate amount of information to ... someone.

    Secondly, whats wrong with whatever applet your OS provides for music? What do all these dot-release version 3rd party players do?

  25. Re:Focused on rapid delivery on How Quickly Will the Latest Arms Race Accelerate? · · Score: 2

    Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia.

    You need some way of draining excess capital and manpower if you want to stay on top of your population.
