  1. Re:strictly false. C++ DOES everything Java does on Eclipse Foundation Celebrates 10 Years · · Score: 1

    But . . . C++ isn't webscale!

  2. Re:Still using it on Eclipse Foundation Celebrates 10 Years · · Score: 1

    As fuggin verbose as java can be, not requiring line numbers is the least it can do. :P

  3. Re:Can I register .n or .jb? on First New Generic Top Level Domains Opening · · Score: 1

    Think stolen twitter handles.

  4. Re:Can I register .n or .jb? on First New Generic Top Level Domains Opening · · Score: 1

    Hah, took me a minute to get it. :P

  5. Re:Web Workers on The JavaScript Juggernaut Rolls On · · Score: 1

    "Multiplier" is meaningless without some kind of context (no pun intended).

  6. Re:StarOffice 5.2 on LibreOffice 4.2 Busts Out GPU Mantle Support and Corporate IT Integration · · Score: 3, Funny

    $20 grand and an escape helicopter.

  7. Wouldn't that be . 4 2? :P

    Pretty sure tin foil hats would block incoming/outgoing signals.

  9. Re:Dream job on BP Hired Company To Troll Users Who Left Critical Comments · · Score: 1

    Kinda hard with all this top-notch competition.

  10. MY ox? No I bloody wouldn't be cheering them on, and you have no reason to believe I would. So now we're going from hypocrisy to outright dishonesty. I doubt it's even what the majority of slashdot thinks, but that doesn't matter.

  11. Re:I wish them success... on Wikimedia Sends Cease and Desist Letter To Firm Providing Paid Editing Services · · Score: 1, Insightful

    So what? Doesn't change the hypocrisy that a good deal of libertarians only pay lip service to freedom with the ulterior motive of getting the government out of the way so that they themselves can infringe on others liberties and rights. Some line on a stupid website doesn't change that fact.

  12. Re:Interesting on Mir Won't Ship Even In Ubuntu 14.04 · · Score: 2

    I'm just waiting for when Canonical announces their own kernel.

  13. Re:I wish them success... on Wikimedia Sends Cease and Desist Letter To Firm Providing Paid Editing Services · · Score: 3, Funny

    Yes, good ol' Libertarian "The government shouldn't violate my right to violate others rights!"

  14. Re:Assassination Politics on Meet the 'Assassination Market' Creator Who's Crowdfunding Murder With Bitcoins · · Score: 2

    In the US, we don't hold the position that just because you are a criminal means you should be killed. In fact, the bill of rights has this peculiar amendment addressing that punishment should not be in excess of the crime committed. It's dictatorships and very anti-freedom hellholes that take the opposite stance.

    tl;dr: We put humans life (politician, criminal, or not) on a pedestal. That's part of being a civilized Republic.

  15. Re:That's a shame on Skydiving Accident Leaves Security Guru Cedric 'Sid' Blancher Dead At 37 · · Score: 1

    You're off to meet your maker?

  16. Re:Where did they bury the survivors? on Skydiving Accident Leaves Security Guru Cedric 'Sid' Blancher Dead At 37 · · Score: 0

    Not near the smart asses.

  17. Sounds . . . on How MOOC Faculty Exploit People's Desire To Learn · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Sounds like somebody has an axe to grind

  18. Re:Nice on Linux 3.13 Kernel To Bring Major Feature Improvements · · Score: 4, Insightful

    What the next generation actually needs, is to learn to question authority

    Apparently somebody's never met a teenager before. :P

  19. Re:Good Grief on Hotel Tycoon Seeks Property Rights On the Moon · · Score: 1

    Uh, no. The reason we don't send people to other celestial bodies is primarily due to cost and safety.

  20. Re:Twice as much to deny! on Global Warming Since 1997 Underestimated By Half · · Score: 1

    Uhh, is it me or do folks really not know how to read basic charts? Yes, the temperature changes due to cycling glacial periods are real. They are also spread out across vast chunks of time; the rate of these cyclic background climate changes are very, very, very slow.

  21. Re:Not going to happen on Legislation Would Prohibit ISPs From Throttling Online Video Services · · Score: 4, Funny

    And grown locally too, without injected hormones. Did you know that most artificial steroids used on digital content leads to premature bit rot? Digithol Rightose Managemone being one of the worst of the bunch.

    Did I hit a nerve? I think I hit a nerve.

  23. Re:Enough already. on Red Hat Releases Ceylon Language 1.0.0 · · Score: 1

    D is probably closer to C++ than C.

  24. Re:Enough already. on Red Hat Releases Ceylon Language 1.0.0 · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Honestly, I'd be happy with just a C variant with built-in string support.
