  1. Re: Wrong approach, kill the nazi faggots on A Reporter Built a Bot To Find Nazi Sock Puppet Accounts. Twitter Banned the Bot and Kept the Nazis (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    1.2) A person who seeks to impose their views on others in a very autocratic or inflexible way.

    Interesting, seems like everyone is a Nazi then.

  2. Re:Cautiously saying yes to this on Should Archive.org Ignore Robots.txt Directives And Cache Everything? (archive.org) · · Score: 1

    Bandwidth seems like a likely problem if everyone does it.

  3. Re:better to eliminate those financial jobs on US Workers Face A Higher Risk Of Being Replaced By Robots (cnn.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Would it kill CNN (or slashdot for that matter) to include things like references, facts, and arguments to back up conclusions?

    It would since those often don't exist.

  4. Re:Single factor authentication on Google Tests Signing Into Accounts Using Your Phone, No Password Required (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 1

    Only if you don't just "forget" the password outright so it sends an email to reset it.

  5. Re:So let me get this straight. on Hillary Clinton Urges Silicon Valley To 'Disrupt' ISIS · · Score: 0

    morons on the left don't like him because he's male, not a minority, or not rabidly anti-gun

    Funny how being Jewish is only a minority when they want it to be.

  6. Re:So Scared on Google-Supported CodeGirl Documentary Makes "Exclusive YouTube Premiere" · · Score: 2

    Comments are disabled for this video.

    Exactly as expected...

  7. Re:The fine won't hurt the DC owners. on $600k Fine Over Data Center Death (datacenterdynamics.com) · · Score: 1

    Someone made the call to have live circuits worked on, despite this being illegal. That person should be tried for manslaughter. It's about time people stopped hiding behind the corporate veil and are made accountable for their decisions, just as you or I would be.

    No, companies are people now, better to charge the company with manslaughter and figure out how to send it to prison.

  8. Re:Its all in the taxes and incentives. on How Wind and Politics Pushed the Price of Texas Electricity Below Zero · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Which is great news! Texas is ahead of the world now in being prepared for the huge increase in electricity usage that good electric cars will cause.

    That won't do much good though, Tesla still can't sell in Texas without going through a bunch of hoops for a dealership.

  9. Re:So the good questions were ignored. on Interviews: Brianna Wu Answers Your Questions · · Score: 1
    Didn't /. go down around that time?

    I wonder if it's related...

  10. Re:SpaceShipTwo on Why the Final Moments Inside a Cockpit Are Heard But Not Seen · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I know I wouldn't want to be videotaped 24/7 at work.

    Spoken like someone who never worked modern retail. You get over it or you work somewhere else.

  11. Re:Can't RTFA! on Why Apple Won't Adopt a Wireless Charging Standard · · Score: 1

    Links don't click in Chrome.

    Enough people don't RTFA as it is, Slashdot now enforcing that?!

    There aren't even links to anywhere, just underlined bits.

  12. Re:A Serious Fan Could Apologize This All Away on The Battle of Hoth: Vader the Invader · · Score: 1

    If the energy shields could only stop energy and not physical materials from entering, then the rebel shield makes sense. The Star Destroyers are too massive to get below the shield without crashing to the planet and yet all of their weapons are ion or energy based. So you have to transport in ground troops and walk them in.

    The shields the Gungans used in the prequels seemed like that. It could stop weapon fire from outside, but the droids could just walk inside of it without any trouble.

  13. What about Messenger on Xbox on Microsoft Retiring Messenger, Replacing It With Skype · · Score: 1

    I wonder if they will replace the Messenger integration on Xbox with Skype too?

  14. Re:I vote troll. on Ask Slashdot: Viable Open Source Models For Early Startups? · · Score: 0

    I'm just baffled nobody took that name earlier.

  15. Re:Eyebleed site on Google Using ReCAPTCHA To Decode Street Addresses · · Score: 3, Informative

    Wow that site is so terrible looking that it makes Geocities and myspace look decent. The only thing it's missing is cosmic cursors.

    Yeah, Techcrunch is really ugly isn't it.

  16. Entourage Edge on Ask Slashdot: What's a Good Tablet/App Combination For Note-Taking? · · Score: 1

    If you can get one the e-ink side is great for note taking and you can plug in a USB keyboard if the notes would be better typed. You would have to deal with the company having go under so all the support is other users.

  17. Re:It's an investment. on Microsoft Has Lost $5.5 Billion On Bing Since 2009 · · Score: 1

    Isn't this also the same strategy they used for the Xbox?

  18. Re:Shocking, I say on The 2011 Hugo Awards · · Score: 1

    /. is slipping, usually it's 90% complainers and 5% fanboys trying to do damage control with the remaining 5% complaining about the rampant fanboys. Come on complainers, you're slipping.

    The story was only up 4 hours on a Sunday night in the USA(when you posted), wait till after people get to work on Monday to level the ratios out.

  19. Re:Finally, something that doesn't record in 720p. on PS Vita Specs Announced · · Score: 1

    >

    PSP Go had no UMD drive. People who previously owned UMDs were allowed to download free copies of their games from PSN. It's a reasonable assumption that Sony may follow the same principle with the new device.

    Do you have a source for that? It sounds like absolute bullshit but, it is possible.

  20. Re:Cool. on Copycat "hiPhone 5" Surfaces In China · · Score: 1

    At the very least you would think they would throw Android on it.

  21. Re:Technology Blamed For Helping UK Rioters on Technology Blamed For Helping UK Rioters · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Not to crap on your analogy but sometimes those fires are put out with explosions. That might be analogous to how they end the riots...

  22. Re:GASP! Possible harassment and attack!? on Wikipedia Losing Contributors, Says Wales · · Score: 1

    Someone mod parent up.

  23. Re:Who cares! on Borderlands 2 Announced · · Score: 1

    Valve doesn't know what a 3 is, the next game they make will probably be DOTA2.

  24. Re:what? on Review: Cowboys & Aliens · · Score: 1

    A voice actor from the video games maybe?

  25. Re:What the fsycke happened ? on For Texas Textbooks, a Victory For Evolution · · Score: 2

    To call yourself a Christian, you need to suscribe to these ridiculous beliefs.

    No you don't. That is why there are so many different groups in Christianity.
