  1. It's very simple on Ask Slashdot: Tech Manufacturers With Better Labor Practices? · · Score: 1

    It's real simple, If you don't like Apple's policies don't use or buy their products (that's called being a man). instead you bitch on your Macbook Pro's about how they are mistreating the employees & make a stand on an internet messaging board. If Microsoft pulled the shit Apple is right now they would have been anti-trusted into bankruptcy... drink the kool aid BTW, I used a mac to post this.

  2. here's my non-infornative post on Megaupload Shutdown: Should RapidShare and Dropbox Worry? · · Score: 1

    I stored zip'd photos of my kids in the "cloud" or megaupload & I paid for the premium service to keep them safe. Now what? I never stole, borrowed, copied or viewed anything illegal or even knew it existed on the site to be honest. It's easy to jump on the "they deserve it because they made more money then me" bandwagon but just because you steal stuff online doesn't mean everybody else does.

  3. Treat Every User Like An Idiot on Ask Slashdot: How To Get Non-Developers To Send Meaningful Bug Reports? · · Score: 1

    Always assume the bug reporter knows NOTHING...reporting everything inside the app you can & reporting the crash back to you directly. If you're excepting anything past "I clicked on this & it said error XYZ" LOL... that doesn't' scale past 10 people.

  4. there's a simple solution on Should Composting Be Mandatory In US Cities? · · Score: 1

    charge $2 per garbage bag collected & offer, - unlimited free recycling - unlimited free composting Watch how quickly adoption rates will grow.

  5. look at the cost on Ruby Clouds: Engine Yard Vs. Heroku · · Score: 1

    imo buy a dedicated server with managed support. The op's will be happy because they can SSH in & developers will be happy because they can ticket the hosting company for changes. Clouds have a purpose but nothing beats a dedicated box for cost/performance (you can get a decent one for $250 now a days)

  6. what a disgusting company on Zynga To Employees: Surrender Pre-IPO Shares Or You're Fired · · Score: 1

    what a disgusting company

  7. $200/yr per domain - $99/yr when open season. on Porn-Industry Outsiders Fear 'Shakedown' In .XXX TLD · · Score: 0

    Important to note, It's $200/yr right now to pre-register 1 domain name.. it's not like it's $8-$9. Even after pre-registration when it goes open to anyone to buy it's still $99/yr per domain. I just want to know how someone is GIVEN a business to manage like that. It's going to created record profits for almost no work at the expense of other legit adult and mainstream businesses. Sounds like someone got a kickback to allow this to me.

  8. You are full on retarded. on How Can I Make Testing Software More Stimulating? · · Score: 0

    You are full on retarded. Programming is all about testing otherwise guess what? You are a magician. Get a real life this isn't a question this a "daddy pays all my bills and I'm angry comment".

  9. Not really funny on Why You Never Ask the Designers For a Favor · · Score: 0

    If your a "designer" who can't complete a simple reward flyer in less then 5 minutes (1 photo centred with two lines of text) you really are full on retarded. If you can't find 5 minutes to help a co-worker who could easily poison you without you ever knowing.... you really are lazy. People with pets think of them as family members I don't think it's funny or insightful it's obnoxious.

  10. Re:Not this again... on The Hurt Locker Producers Sue First 5,000 File-Sharers · · Score: 1

    Bittorrent is DEAD! Fast direct HTTP downloads for "so-so" products are available and will be the future! Why deal with XYZ lawsuit when sites can hide behind the DMCA?!?!?? For once the DMCA is actually helping expand piracy who would have thunk-it. Well me of course.
