  1. Slashdot has been bought by goddamn multinationals on Rise In CO2 Has 'Greened Planet Earth' (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    You dirty scumbags. Whomever recently bought Slashdot is subtly fucked up in the head and has fossil fuel mining companies in their pockets. The tenor has changed, ever so slightly. The headlines that head up the email header. It is changing. This is a travesty.

  2. Re:Buying off the poor on Amazon Begins Housing Homeless In Seattle (jeffreifman.com) · · Score: 1

    I disagree with your presumptuously overarching and quite honestly distasteful statement. On a number of levels.

  3. Re:Plastics are about to be a million times cheape on World's Largest Private Coal Company Files For Bankruptcy (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    We are not heading into a nightmarish "true plastics era". We are progressing to a semi-intelligent diamondoid materials era.

  4. Re:So glad I don't use Gmail! on Gmail's Mic Drop April Fool Backfires Horribly Costing People Their Jobs (telegraph.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    there needs to be a Spinal Tap mod option of going all the way to Funny 11 for this one

  5. Slashdot's New Owners Are Jerks on Study Says People Who Continually Point Out Typos Are 'Jerks' · · Score: 1

    Slashdot your new owners are a bunch of nasty fuckwits. Sorry not sorry. It's a pity but it must be said. Slashdot is nothing like it was.

  6. Slashdot got Bought and Sold for The Worse on California's $15-an-Hour Minimum Wage May Spur Automation (computerworld.com) · · Score: 1

    Okay Slashdot the general tone of the leading stories since this joint got bought are ten percent disingenuous. It's a pity to see a giant fall, but this is the beginning of the end of Slashdot. Goodbye Slashdot, your new overlords are a bunch of scammers. Stick it up your self satisfied ass.

  7. The question is Dishonest on Slashdot Asks: Do You Support Nuclear Energy? (gallup.com) · · Score: 1

    The title question is implicitly in support of nuclear energy and it is strange that it tops the Slashdot forums now it has been sold to another entity. I don't like it and I don't trust it. Go fuck yourself Slashdot i am closing my account.

  8. Re:This just in... on Richard Branson Plans Orbital Spaceships For Virgin Galactic · · Score: 1

    or perhaps funnier - 'Nood'. Call me 'Nood'.

  9. Re:It's a flawed way to keep a site up. on Game Site Wonders 'What Next?' When 50% of Users Block Ads · · Score: 1

    this simile/metaphor could perhaps also relate to romantic realms. hmmm.

  10. Re:Wait there's more on Google Patents Staple of '70s Mainframe Computing · · Score: 1

    oh dear that is hilarious! totally made my evening.

  11. Re:Betteridge's Law has been beaten on Ask Slashdot: Is the Bar Being Lowered At Universities? · · Score: 1

    Actually the lower the bar gets, the easier it is to get a satisfying ROI from a college education. For those who are motivated to get the most they can from their college education, a lower average rate of achievement merely allows them to look better. The trick is finding the competent teachers, and not only that, but also finding the particular teachers who click with the student, who naturally are inclined to listen to the student's interests, supporting the student to individuate in a savvy and valuable fashion.

  12. or perhaps ... iClock on Ask Slashdot: What Features Belong In a 'Smartwatch'? · · Score: 1

    .. could be an alternative working title. except that might be too similar to another product in development. :/

  13. Re:Punishment to fit the crime on MIT Warned of a JSTOR Death Sentence Due To Swartz · · Score: 1

    One word: hacker culture. Okay, two. Anyway, Hacker culture is what MIT is all about. The only crime committed here is by Ortiz and Heymann. The nightmare team of Ortiz and Heymann did their best to flaunt the spirit of the law by attempting to twist it to their purposes.

  14. Re:Punishment to fit the crime on MIT Warned of a JSTOR Death Sentence Due To Swartz · · Score: 1

    By over-prosecuting, the prosecutor proved herself inadequate to the task of seeking appropriate justice. Not only but also, Ortiz and Stephen Heymann made a mockery of the law. The nightmare team of Ortiz and Heymann sought to achieve harm rather than an appropriate slap over the wrists. What is the essence of their convictions? What nightmarish lives are Ortiz and Heymann living? We shall never know, but one thing is certain, both Ortiz and Heymann are not fit to play a role in the justice system. An investigation into the reasons why Ortiz and Heymann chose to ride roughshod over the spirit of the law would be highly appropriate at this time, and would, quite possibly, go for a long, long time.

  15. Re:Droves on Instagram Loses Almost Half Its Daily Users In a Month · · Score: 1

    thus, the drove took the trove

  16. Re:three letters... on Ask Slashdot: Undoing an Internet Smear Campaign? · · Score: 1

    awesome, magnificently so.

  17. Re:Without the use of a loop!? on How Does a Single Line of BASIC Make an Intricate Maze? · · Score: 1

    awesome. this is one of the reasons I love programming and Slashdot comments. I have to admit, my admiration is from afar, observing the logic from a distance, although one day, hope to be up close and personal with the implementation of such soluble clarity.

  18. Re:Thermodynamics on Water Bottle Fills Itself From the Air · · Score: 1

    the "outback fridge" was in operation for many years in early australia, although perhaps without the currently-mentioned extremely cool technology (pun unintentional).

  19. Re:Wrong idea. on How Do You Spot a Genius? · · Score: 1

    fascinating. quite refreshing to read this, cheers. if i had the mod creds, i would award many modpointi.

  20. Re:90% accuracy on Google Puts Souped-Up Neural Networks To Work · · Score: 1

    or 8.9 ... YMMV.

  21. or.. on OS X Mountain Lion Review · · Score: 1
