  1. Compelling consumption? on The Case For a Global, Compulsory Bug Bounty · · Score: 1

    Yeah that always works well. What is this, socialized medicine?

  2. xenon not so noble either on No Longer "Noble"; Argon Compound Found In Space · · Score: 2

    xenon will combine with halogens. anything will combine with anything, you just need enough juice.

  3. Constant quality / number of users on More Students Learn CS In 3 Days Than Past 100 Years · · Score: 1

    More is not better, when every new comp sci kid comes out thinking that Java is the best thing ever, 64GB of RAM is a minimum, and worrying about scalability is for nerds. Programming != Computer Science.

  4. We dont want you to connect the dots on NSA Head Asks How To Spy Without Collecting Metadata · · Score: 1

    We don't want you to spy on us, period.

  5. Re:Does DJB insist that the library ... on OpenSSH Has a New Cipher — Chacha20-poly1305 — from D.J. Bernstein · · Score: 1

    Citing the existence of a directory /var/cache/apt/archive does not demonstrate that it's a separate filesystem.

    Therefore, you fail.

  6. Deserved it on NZ Traveler's Electronics Taken At Airport; Interest in Snowden to Blame? · · Score: -1

    1) 27
    2) a "backpacker"
    3) carrying electronics (if you're really out seeing the world, see the world, don't just photograph it)
    4) european journalist girlfriend
    5) he gave them the passwords
    6) how did he tweet if they took all his eletronics?

    Sounds like a wanker.

  7. Re:Does DJB insist that the library ... on OpenSSH Has a New Cipher — Chacha20-poly1305 — from D.J. Bernstein · · Score: 1

    Caring about what goes in what filesystem is neck-beardy.

    Who mounts /var noexec by default? How many people have already dispensed with a separate /var ?

  8. Big Data on AllSeen Alliance Wants To Open-Source the 'Internet of Things' · · Score: 1, Redundant

    Who wins with the Internet of Things? Corporations and Governments. If you're not a hobbyist, why do you need a *BSD-powered toaster?

  9. Utility of text messages on CyanogenMod Integrates Text Message Encryption · · Score: 1, Troll

    Text messages are useful because they're banal. "I'll be late" "pick up milk" "what section are you sitting in?" "when do we need to leave?" If you're committing any relevant content to SMS you have different problems that security isn't solving.

  10. Those games were cool in context on The Quest To Build Xbox One and PS4 Emulators · · Score: 2, Funny

    Zelda was cool when you were 10 BECAUSE you were 10.
    Move on.

  11. He who votes decides nothing on Google, Apple, Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft, Yahoo Form Alliance Against NSA · · Score: 3, Insightful

    He who COUNTS the votes decides everything. Good luck guys. Let us know how it works out for you.

  12. How can you tell an autistic mouse? on Gut Microbes Linked to Autism-Like Symptoms in Mice · · Score: 2

    Does it want to watch Wapner? Can it count cards? We need to come up with a better way of testing stuff out than on mice.

  13. Paging Mr Wales on Scientists Boost the "Will To Persevere" With Current To the Brain · · Score: 1

    "Endeavor to persevere".

  14. Thanks Guardian on Why Engineers Must Consider the Ethical Implications of Their Work · · Score: 1

    For reminding us that in your warped view of the world, the able must bear the weight of the sins of the unable, the good must carry the bad, and the winners must be brought down to the level of losers.

  15. There's no one over your boss' head on Ask Slashdot: Application Security Non-existent, Boss Doesn't Care. What To Do? · · Score: 1

    When your boss is the President. We all know what application you're talking about.

  16. how many DISTINCT passwords? on Two Million Passwords Compromised By Keylogger Virus · · Score: 1

    How many were: password, wordpass, password123, 12345 or 00000000?

  17. Re:All nations have laws legalising this behaviour on Australian Defense Scientists Plagiarizing Trade Secrets · · Score: 0

    You spelled legalising wrong.

  18. Re:It ain't bullshit on SpaceX Launch Achieves Geostationary Transfer Orbit · · Score: 1

    What's the alternative? The majority extorting funds from the minority?

  19. Epson? on Epson Tries to One-up Google Glass with Moverio-Goggles (Video) · · Score: 1, Interesting

    The maker of mediocre printers and scanners? Suddenly has a competitive product and infrastructure to Google Glass?

  20. Re:When you have a bad driver ... on Is the Porsche Carrera GT Too Dangerous? · · Score: 1

    I didn't think it was possible to be a socialist about cars, but this is Slashdot after all.

    People drove for years without ESC and antilock breaks, and everyone survived, except for the same dbags who crashed their sportscars. Hint: it's not antilock breaks or a lack thereof which is the problem.

  21. The rear end is always trying to pass you on Is the Porsche Carrera GT Too Dangerous? · · Score: 1

    It's a sports car, and a Porsche at that. That's what they do.

  22. Find a new job, fast on Ask Slashdot: Recommendations For Beautiful Network Cable Trays? · · Score: 0

    "My company prides itself on an office environment that follows a modern design aesthetic..."

    How about producing a valuable product? If this is what's driving the latest office war, your company's priorities are farked up.

  23. Capt. Nemo on Harvesting Power When Freshwater Meets Salty · · Score: 1

    "I use salt from the sea to charge special batteries that I've made."

  24. Never underestimate the bandwidth on How the LHC Is Reviving Magnetic Tape · · Score: 4, Funny

    Of a station wagon loaded with tapes.

    Also, -1, Duh, because this is an obvious, stupid article.

  25. Until shot down on Amazon Reveals "Prime Air", Their Plans For 30-minute Deliveries By Drone · · Score: 1

    Most things on the drone will be spendy, and well packaged. Shoot them down, pawn the goods, rinse, repeat.
