  1. Re:Tool on Could You Live Without Your Smartphone? (theglobeandmail.com) · · Score: 1

    Smartphones are pocket computers: it's was a dream to me when a kid... you don't need to use it as the makers instruct, you know...

    where what a web browser can do

    webpages have MBs today, you know... (I feel sorry for our data plan!)

  3. Re:No on Could You Live Without Your Smartphone? (theglobeandmail.com) · · Score: 1

    People can talk and answer questions about location, you know...

  4. +1 informative!

    * the parents demanded it in some schools, here in Brazil (it was not an school-only demand: parents demanded more control over his children...) - yes, I think it's scary as f*ck!

  5. Re:Movies on way out/Streaming coming in to it's o on Slashdot Asks: Your Favorite Movies and TV Shows of 2018? · · Score: 1

    I was really impressed by 'Maniac' ( https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5... ) too... 'Homecoming' ( https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7... ) was very good also!

  6. UtÃya 22. juli on Slashdot Asks: Your Favorite Movies and TV Shows of 2018? · · Score: 1

    best movie I've seem this year: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7...

  7. Revable batteries... on 'Two Years Later, I Still Miss the Headphone Port' (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    ... the lack of it was the first "fail" to me (it's a reason why I still keep my S5 [it shines with http://lineageos.org/ ] :P)

  8. Re:Banning users and groups? on Facebook's WhatsApp Has an Encrypted Child Porn Problem (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    WhatsApp is zero rating (which is against net neutrality...) in every carrier here on Brazil: I think is the same on several countries...
    It's a huge incentive to use (without this incentive, I think it will be barely used: there's several better alternatives...) - add it with end-to-end encryption by design and the great spread in crimes using it occurs!

    If you can be converted from gay to heterosexual, you can be converted from heterosexual to gay.

    You can't. It's a biological issue.

    and Metadata like "when someone messages other" is not sufficient for investigation? See the content are necessary?

  11. Re:Translation on Oracle's CTO: No Way a 'Normal' Person Would Move To AWS (zdnet.com) · · Score: 2

    Don't worry, all of our customers are sufficiently locked in.

    so very true - I only have worked, in more than 10 years of DBA professional experience, with ORACLE DB on legacy software: make something new with ORACLE DB seems something insane to me...

  12. Re:How is Brazil on Spam Calls Jumped Over 300% Globally in 2018 (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 1

    it's #1 in TFA! Vivo (ex-Telefonica) is responsible for more than half of this, I think (I personally receive 10+ calls from them weekly)...

  13. It's Chiina! on Germany Refuses To Ban Huawei, Citing Lack of Real Evidence (phys.org) · · Score: 1

    Red danger! (purely ideological shit... New Cold War?)

  16. M$ Office needs to natively support ODF!
