  1. Re:Patch your macs now! on 'Accidental Hero' Finds Kill Switch To Stop Wana Decrypt0r Ransomware (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    They are not as safe as people think..

    While it seems the need urgency level is lower than for windows, Macs are good at updating the system efficiently in a less obtrusive way

  2. I beg to disagree, totally, despite of what she says.

  3. My PC is safe it seems on Keylogger Found in Audio Driver of HP Laptops, Says Report (bleepingcomputer.com) · · Score: 4, Funny

    # ls -l C:\windows\system32\mictray64.exe
    ls: cannot access 'C:windowssystem32mictray64.exe': No such file or directory

  4. The problem is all the other "clever" ones we will never hear about, and who will never be caught.

  5. Re:I feel left out on Google Researchers Find Wormable 'Crazy Bad' Windows Exploit (bleepingcomputer.com) · · Score: 1

    Can we post some equally-bad Linux vulns please? Intel, Microsoft, they can't be the only ones having all the fun.

    Yeah but to be fair, it's way funnier when it's Windows!

  6. Re:Whole New Vistas for Zeno's Paradoxes on Ask Slashdot: What Should Be the Attributes of an Ideal Programming Language If Computers Were Infinitely Fast? · · Score: 1

    This is where the contradiction lies. Programming logic is based on sequentiality. Meaning operation A must be done before operation B, since B depends upon A. If the computer is "infinitely fast", any operation is instant, there is no order. Maybe saying "the program execution can be started any time in the past in order to get the result now" would make more "sense" (quantum computers are supposed to be able to do that..).

  7. In 2016 win. In 2017, everyone wants to bet on AI "predicted" horses, which are intentionally wrong. AI team bets on truly predicted horses. Big money for the team.

  8. Re:Apathetic Americans on 'Weaponized' Twitter Bots Spread Info From French Campaign Hack (recode.net) · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately that's not so simple. In 2002 Le Pen (father) got 18%. This time she gets (daughter) 40%. Even if the far-right loses the presidential election, they will likely get more power though other institutions (parliament...) in a near future (June)

  9. Re:WTF IS UAE??? on UAE To Drag Iceberg From Antarctica To Solve Water Shortage Set To Last 25 Years (express.co.uk) · · Score: 2, Informative

    How fucking retardedly stupid are you? You're from redneck america, aren't you?

    Funny how someone might become aggressive and full of contempt when faced with a simple mistake - I'm used to the acronym in another language since, like you, I'm not American.

  10. This one is funny!!

  11. Seriously, when will we able to mod down an article after it's published?

  12. wish i could pay no taxes

    Many wish they had to pay taxes.

  13. Wow! 2095!

  14. Re:Stop shopping there on How Online Shopping Makes Suckers of Us All (theatlantic.com) · · Score: 1

    I stay away from retailers with auto pricing algorithms that run non stop.

    You do. I wish everyone does it also. Otherwise it has close to no impact.

  15. Re:Slave mentality on Richard Stallman Interviewed By Bryan Lunduke (youtube.com) · · Score: 1

    But, am I really a slave, in that case...

  16. Re:Nobody cares on Richard Stallman Interviewed By Bryan Lunduke (youtube.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You opened the article, and even posted in it. You care!

  17. Not sure that language has a name, though.

  18. To be fair, unlike Apple, MS and the main PC makers (dell, hp, asus, ...) there isn't much information about Linux-only manufacturers ; being informed like that, once in a while, keeps us aware that there are alternatives...

  19. Re:Libreoffice is a thing on Microsoft Will Block Desktop 'Office' Apps From 'Office 365' Services In 2020 (techradar.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If all docs were made with Libre Office we'd have less compatibility problems (usually problems arise when MS office stuff is read in anything else ; not the opposite). Users need to change their habits.

  20. What algorithm did they have to build? on 95% Engineers in India Unfit For Software Development Jobs: Report (gadgetsnow.com) · · Score: 1

    The travelling salesman problem?

  21. Re:Oh, shit. on Bose Headphones Secretly Collected User Data, Lawsuit Reveals (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    Just a funny comment to undo moderation

  22. Re:Happy Lucky Gold 8 Phone on Apple To Launch Three New iPhones This Year: Bloomberg (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Apple was always more marketing than tech

    You mean after Jobs death.

  23. Some say it's been helped by a missile above the ocean

  24. Re:It's not "Malaysia Air." on Malaysia Air Is First Airline to Track Fleet With Satellites (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    It's MH (as in MH370) so maybe it's Malaysia Hair?

  25. Re:Obviously.. on Slashdot Asks: What's Your Favorite Sci-Fi Movie? · · Score: 1

    I really need to go to the cinema more often. I have only seen the first three...

    Well, go see the 2nd one again ;-)
