  1. Re:Sounds like it's the one to buy then on Apple Blocks Sale of Galaxy Tab 10.1 In Australia · · Score: 1

    Alert! Alert! Apple Fan Boy!

  2. Re:LOL on Prosecuted For Critical Twittering · · Score: 1

    We have an overabundance of guns and crazy people. This makes protesting to the point of revolution a very dangerous idea.

  3. Re:That's ok on Ubisoft Brings Back Always-Connected DRM For Driver: San Francisco · · Score: 1
  4. Re:This is the gayest shit I've ever seen. on OK Go Goes HTML5 · · Score: 3, Funny

    You sir, owe it to yourself to observe more frequently the fecal matter of homosexuals. It will spare you the embarrassment of making such an incorrect statement again.

  5. Re:Sorry, disagree that SHA/MD5 is a solutionj on Android Password Data Stored In Plain Text · · Score: 1

    The effect isn't the same. You'll get a better reset by pulling it while it's on. I'm discussing all models, I speak with RIM Support fairly often, you see...

  6. Re:Sorry, disagree that SHA/MD5 is a solutionj on Android Password Data Stored In Plain Text · · Score: 1

    yep, and you can't turn it off and then pull the battery. You have to pull the battery while the phone is on.

  7. Re:Uh Huh on Has LHC Seen a Hint of the Higgs? · · Score: 2

    This is actually a feature of the VP of PR's calendar. It has informed him that it's time to make some more noise and let everyone know that the LHC is still there.

  8. Re:And this is on /. why? on Terror Attack On Norwegian Government · · Score: 1

    You're actually thinking of Australia.

  9. Re:I really wish... on Google Plugs Hole That Lets You Remove Any Website · · Score: 1

    No shit! They show google the answer in exchange for showing up in search results. Google requires them to not hide the answers when people click through the results. Why would they show you the answer if you didn't click through the results?

    It's not dodgy, and yeah, they're just another paywall.

  10. Re:I really wish... on Google Plugs Hole That Lets You Remove Any Website · · Score: 1

    I believe the complaint originated at Experts Exchange showing up in google search results.

  11. Re:It's no surprise on Microsoft's Looming 'Single Windows Ecosystem' · · Score: 1

    Assholes have been verbing it for quite some time before I came around. I am merely the latest in a long line of assholes.

  12. It's no surprise on Microsoft's Looming 'Single Windows Ecosystem' · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Considering the strength of Windows comes from its backwards compatibility with a large field of Programs(before they were called Apps), it makes sense that Microsoft will want to leverage that over all available media.

    It's a very good decision, which is surprising in it's own right.

  13. Re:Police on Ford Demonstrates Networked Cars · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Not only that, but you'll be aware of the people spoofing police in order to get everyone else out of their way.

  14. Re:Slashdot Ads on Study: Ad Networks Not Honoring Do-Not-Track · · Score: 2

    Just you.

  15. Re:Mind/Machine Interface on NSF Funds Mind-machine Interface Center · · Score: 1

    Actually it led to graviton theory and the others. It required Air Power and Neural Grafting.

    thoughts.com? is it goatse?

  17. Re:There can be only one... on IT Crises vs. Vacation: Sometimes It Isn't Pretty · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You are weak to rely on your own knowledge to keep yourself employed. Be good at managing others in IT and you'll be far more indispensable.

    You can, and will be replaced, and are foolish to think otherwise.

  18. App Store was way too generic for a trademark. That's the problem with coining a term, at least xerox was the name of their company.

  19. Re:Good luck on CmdrTaco at Kennedy Space Center · · Score: 1

    It's worth it. I was on a beach nearby when a shuttle launched, it was a hell of a thing.

  20. Re:Build a mouse brain first. on A Million Node Supercomputer · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Without the need to breath, eat, procreate, keep my brain occupied etc... I would certainly do the same.

    Think long term buddy. What causes hydro's greenhouse gases? In year 10-20 of a dam's lifetime, what causes hydro's greenhouse gases?

    Actually, the hard numbers, available in the second link, are in BTUs, not percentage points. comma

    also, Renewable Energy(a)

    a Most data are estimates. See Tables 10.1-10.2c for notes on series
    components and estimation; and see Note, "Renewable Energy Production and
    Consumption," at end of Section 10
