  1. Good luck... on The Mark Cuban Chair To Eliminate Stupid Patents · · Score: 1

    $500,000? Doesn't IBM spend more on patent applications in a single month than that?

  2. Re:C++ Standards on Qt 5.0 Released · · Score: 2

    They aren't eliminating MOC. For one thing, they support a number of compilers that don't have and probably never will have full C++11 support.

  3. Re:$45 a month unlimited Everything on ISP Data Caps Just a 'Cash Cow' · · Score: 1

    If you were outside of a town or city you were stranded until someone came by or you had to walk. If you were in an accident and were injured you had a much lower chance of getting emergency response in a timely manner.

    Also, no one said you need one to live. The point is that cell phones have more uses than needing to make trivial calls that can wait until you get home.

    They got a trojan installed and opened a backdoor.

    Yes, it was due to a Trojan.

    Linux Organization officials discovered on Aug. 28 that attackers had installed a Trojan and opened a backdoor into kernel.org servers on Aug. 12

    Fail.

  6. Re:I don't believe 1% of computers give wrong answ on Whose Bug Is This Anyway? · · Score: 1

    I think this is bull. I just don't believe 1% of computers give wrong answers.

    Why would he lie about it?

  7. Re:The "g" is for global, not generic on ICANN Raffle Sets gTLD Processing Order · · Score: 1

    From hereL

    Most TLDs with three or more characters are referred to as "generic" TLDs, or "gTLDs". They can be subdivided into two types, "sponsored" TLDs (sTLDs) and "unsponsored TLDs (uTLDs), as described in more detail below.

    Fail.

    Then you've never worked in the DoD.

  9. Re:Next news articles: on New Malware Wiping Data On Computers In Iran · · Score: 1

    yet we're going to give a free pass to an OS used by a nation of terrorists?

    Yes. Now stop being an idiot.

    The US Government is full of Linux and Unix machines. You're a moron.

    No, they'll just start writing more Linux trojans.

    Yeah like when your car breaks down. Let me just walk home instead of being able to use my cell phone.

  13. Re:10 years does not fit the crime on Hacker Behind Leaked Nude Celebrity Photos Gets 10 Years · · Score: 1

    murderers get less time.

    This is not true at the Federal level (which this case was). 1st degree murder is mandatory death or life imprisonment. Second degree murder is no less than 10 years up to life imprisonment.

  14. Re:WTF is BI? on Pentaho and Jaspersoft: Good Alternatives To Bigger-Name Software? · · Score: 1, Funny

    BI = Big Idiots. As in "Only Big Idiots buy into buzzwordy BI tools".

  15. Re:WTF on Pentaho and Jaspersoft: Good Alternatives To Bigger-Name Software? · · Score: 0

    Yeah but since no one goes to SlashBI they repost the stories here to try to drive up page clicks. It's like how samzenpus posts idle stories outside of the idle section since he knows many people have idle submissions blocked.

  16. Re:Godwining it here on New Call For Turing Pardon · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I'm sorry, but blaming the rules is just another way to not acknowledge just how badly they fucked him over.

    They fucked over many people under that law. Why should Turing be the only one given a pardon?

  17. Re:So what? on Official Doc Reveals Oracle's Cloud Rules · · Score: 1

    And so will Amazon, Rackspace or any other provider.

    Nuh uh! Only Oracle has such rules because they're evil!!!

  19. So what? on Official Doc Reveals Oracle's Cloud Rules · · Score: 2

    Like the one that allows Oracle to turn off access to accounts in the event of a dispute or account violation.

    So if you violate the ToS they cut off your access to service? Yeah, and? I can find you hundreds of sites that have similar terms.

    Only now? You have heard of AOL, right?

  21. Re:Uh...it's still there, you know on The Web We Lost · · Score: 1

    And they were suing Napster during these supposed "good old days" as well.

  22. Re:Uh...it's still there, you know on The Web We Lost · · Score: 2

    Ten years ago the web was far better in some ways -- almost no intrusive advertising

    Sure there was. The rampant advertising started during the late 90s dot com bubble.

  23. Re:Uh...it's still there, you knowi on The Web We Lost · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Why is that fascinating? Many people thought AOL, Compuserve, etc. were the Internet during their heydays. In fact, what tou stated is a pretty mundane observation.
