  1. Hmm... on Adobe Officially Kills New Flash Installations On Android · · Score: 1, Insightful

    But doesn't this mean Android devices are going to be only able to view half the web now? I thought Flash was the amazing killer feature of Android...

  2. Re:The Application names: Wow on Calligra 2.5 Office and Creativity Suite Released · · Score: 3, Funny

    Obviously the Caligula Office is a suite of tools for planning and marketing your sexual orgies and other perversity.

  3. Re:No Discrete Math, No Algorithms on Khan Academy Launches Computer Science Curriculum · · Score: 1

    iTunes U has a whole series of videos on Introduction to Algorithms from MIT OpenCourseWare. The videos can also be found from MIT here.

  4. Re:Jail Time for Civil Offenses? on 'Pirate' Website Owner Sentenced To 4 Years In Prison · · Score: 1

    It's like putting the flea market owner in jail, because someone who rented a booth from him was selling drugs without his knowledge or permission.

    Except this guy was completely aware of what was going on. So, it's really nothing like your analogy and its not even assured that the person in your analogy wouldn't be held liable.

  5. Re:Mighty broad definition of "language" there on Khan Academy Launches Computer Science Curriculum · · Score: 0

    What is this? Use of libraries? Graphics? User interaction?

    Clearly Javascript is the only language with such things. It's a good thing you were here to tell us all about how we should incorporate libraries, graphics and user interaction into other languages.

  6. Re:Jail Time for Civil Offenses? on 'Pirate' Website Owner Sentenced To 4 Years In Prison · · Score: 1

    Except this isn't re-assignment of anything. People have been arrested and charged with criminal offenses for bootlegging entertainment media for decades. It has never been strictly a civil issue. This is just a falsity perpetuated by the ignorant.

  7. Re:And to think... on Ecuador To Grant Assange Political Asylum · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Great. How does that make Chavez any less of a dictator that jails people for speaking out against him?

  8. Re:Political refugee on Ecuador To Grant Assange Political Asylum · · Score: 1

    Then they must have never read much US history or even followed contemporary news.

  9. Re:And to think... on Ecuador To Grant Assange Political Asylum · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Considering the long history of dictators and military juntas they would be correct. Go to Venezuela and start some demonstrations to speak out against Hugo Chavez and see how much 'freedom' he affords you.

  10. Re:Good on Ecuador To Grant Assange Political Asylum · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You confuse 'the American public' with 'internet nerds'. The American public is overwhelmingly anti-Wikileaks.

  11. Re:Oh, darn, U.S.! on Ecuador To Grant Assange Political Asylum · · Score: 1

    All they have to do is pay a taxi cab driver to kidnap him. No fuss. No muss. He's only made it easier for himself to be nabbed.

  12. Re:Good on Ecuador To Grant Assange Political Asylum · · Score: 1

    Then he shouldn't go to Ecaudor. Kidnappings are rampant and it wouldn't be hard to pay off a taxi driver to kidnap him.

  13. Re:Good on Ecuador To Grant Assange Political Asylum · · Score: 1

    It's great for the US, too. Ecaudor is notorious for its high incidence of kidnapping. He'll have to watch his back perpetually.

  14. Re:Jail Time for Civil Offenses? on 'Pirate' Website Owner Sentenced To 4 Years In Prison · · Score: 2

    He wasn't tried for a civil offense. You must be out of the loop since the TRIPS agreement maintained by WIPO introduced crimInal liability for copyright offenses years ago.

  15. Re:Speak truth to power, get shitstorm in return on WikiLeaks Back Online After Massive DDoS Attack · · Score: 1

    But we are only supposed to be skeptical of things that aren't our sacred cows. This is why this very same person will handwave away any evidence that disproves AGW denialism (even when it comes from studies consucted and funded by other denialists) but if Julian Assange or Wikileaks says anything he attacks anyone who dares question them.

  16. Re:Speak truth to power, get shitstorm in return on WikiLeaks Back Online After Massive DDoS Attack · · Score: 1

    It's funny how everyone says they like the truth, openness, honesty, free speech--all that shit. Well, until someone dares actually exercise any of that stuff when it exposes THEM, of course. Then it's GODDAMN WAR!!

    Yes, your indignation is even more funny since Wikileaks supporters have DDoSed others for exercising their rights to free speech and free association, too.

  17. Re:Texas on Ask Slashdot: What's the Best Place To Relocate? · · Score: 1

    I'm sure I can come up with more reasons not to move to Austin.

    The obnoxious, poser hipsters would be another one.

  18. Re:Turn NFC off. Problem solved. on Alternative To QR Code Uses NFC and Cheap Rectennas · · Score: 1

    Return the phone and get a different one? Wow, what a hard problem.

  19. Yes, I am being sarcastic for the idiot mods on A Conversation with Rob Malda - Part Three; the Finale (Video) · · Score: 1

    Quit yer bitchin' and fix it yourself, idiot. It's not like Unicode is some old and important standard or anything.

    Wow, you're about as dumb as the article writer. The DSN is not connected to the Internet or any public network.

  22. Re:Hmmm... on The Open Source Technology Behind Twitter · · Score: -1

    Did me in for what? The whole point of sarcasm is to be ridiculing and mocking. Wow, I can't believe I've had to explain sarcasm to someone. And I'm called the aspie?

  23. Re:Hmmm... on The Open Source Technology Behind Twitter · · Score: -1, Troll

    Wow. Sarcasm must be a new thing to Slashdot moderators...

  24. Hmmm... on The Open Source Technology Behind Twitter · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    If it weren't for open source technology, you wouldn't be able to tweet.

    So the existence of idiocracy shit like Twitter is due to freetards? Shouldn't this article then be titled "Open source projects who should be blamed for Twitter's existence"?

    It's been there since the 3GS. Which is definitely more than 10 minutes old.
