  1. I dont trust this proof on Nvidia Sinks Moon Landing Hoax Using Virtual Light · · Score: 1

    There is no question that humans were on the moon. But this is just a clever marketing ploy, and is not the least bit convincing or scientific to me.

  2. The bubble is inflating again on Microsoft To Buy Minecraft Maker Mojang For $2.5 Billion · · Score: 1

    And it's only a matter of time before we see another dotcom crash because some people can not get enough money.

  3. lets do the math on Valve Discloses Source 2 Engine In Recent DOTA 2 Update · · Score: 1

    source -> source 2 -> half life 3!!1

  4. NSA still wiretapping the whole world on Law Repressing Social Media, Bloggers Now In Effect In Russia · · Score: 1

    and it seems people care more about russia

  5. cave in on Firefox 33 Integrates Cisco's OpenH264 · · Score: 1

    so mozilla gave up to make the web a better place?

  6. Bad bad bad! on German NSA Committee May Turn To Typewriters To Stop Leaks · · Score: 1

    With "to stop the leaks" they mean "to stop privacy advocates getting proof that the committee is doing _nothing_ against the NSA".

  7. Bought one ebook from Amazon, will never do again on Want To Resell Your Ebooks? You'd Better Act Fast · · Score: 1

    Having switched completely to all kinds of unixes and FirefoxOS on the phone i'm unable to read that DRM-bullshit amazon is selling. Will never buy an ebook that has DRM again. And it's even more outrageous that the Sellers claim i can't resell it, so i will probably not buy an ebook again, DRM or not.

  8. i want privacy on Ask Slashdot: What Would It Take For You To Buy a Smartwatch? · · Score: 1

    - most important: a sync feature (for example with a basestation at your home) that does NOT give up your personal health data to the manufacturers server, which in term will sell your data to health insurance companies and what not. - standalone operation, not a dumb device that needs a bluetooth tethered smartphone near it all the time - buttload of sensors, like pulse, oxygen level, blood pressure, odometer, body/outside temperature - battery run time in the region of weeks or months - physical buttons on the front, not side. if it has an laughable stamp-sized touchscreen i am not going to buy it - waterproof, not water resistant

  9. No, thanks. on Firefox OS Powered Flame Available For Pre-order; Ships Globally · · Score: 1

    I'm not found of my ZTE Open. The touchscreen sucks, Reception is abysmal and so on. Oh, and there is only one thing i hate more than the ZTE Open: FirefoxOS itself. I dont mind the feature set, i bought this for development and stuff, but FFOS (1.2, or 1.3 or 1.4) is just too unstable. I'm stuck at the lockscreen way too often, and given the current state of the development tools it's very hard to debug the source. My opinion regarding getting a FFOS phone is: Wait.

  10. But for how long? on NASA To Send SpaceX Resupply Capsule To ISS Despite Technical Problems · · Score: 1

    If there are no signals from NASA that it can financially support the ISS past 202* SpaceX (and others?) may bail because of the unsecure business future.

  11. Well Bre... on Interviews: Ask Bre Pettis About Making Things · · Score: 1

    How did the transition from being an open source darling to a danger to the whole 3d-printing community work out for you? How do you feel about kicking out your two co-founders because big money demanded it?

  12. not buying it on How Facebook and Oculus Could Be a Great Combination · · Score: 1

    and no amount of weasel words will change my mind.

  13. Not slashdot worty. on Did Facebook Buy Oculus To Counter Google Glass? · · Score: 1

    Did bigX buy littleY to ________________?

  14. "thats proven thats not possible" on Creationists Demand Equal Airtime With 'Cosmos' · · Score: 1

    instead of "that some believe that's not possible" and it would be okay. Or people believing in fairies will be next demanding airtime.

  15. ...and this wont change because on Top E-commerce Sites Fail To Protect Users From Stupid Passwords · · Score: 3, Insightful

    users dont like registration dialogs. Enforcing good passwords will make users stop the registration process and go away. And a compromised user account is the users problem, not the companies. That is current management thinking.

  16. Nothing is more tantalizing on Satoshi Nakamoto Found? Not So Fast · · Score: 1

    than to not know whats true or not being part of the circle that knows the answer.

  17. cyber-physical damage on In an Age of Cyber War, Where Are the Cyber Weapons? · · Score: 1

    hm. let's translate that to a form that may make more sense: computer-physical damage. nope, still makes no sense.

  18. Secret on EU Secretly Plans To Put a Back Door In Every Car By 2020 · · Score: 1

    Every time there is the word secret, something bad or outrageous is about to happen.

  19. Re:But ... on Dell Partners With MakerBot To Resell 3D Printers and Scanners · · Score: 2

    This. MakerBot turned from an open source darling to the corporate evil we all hate today. And it's about time to leave Thingiverse (now called Makerbot Thingiverse, including Makerbot ads) and go to youmagine, cubehero or others because it's gotten just way too makerbot centric.

  20. Another notable example on Cracked Game Released To Get Back At Pirates · · Score: 1

    Mines in "The Settlers" produced pigs instead of coal (?) if the game detected it was pirated.

  21. Schhhhht! on Researchers Hack Over a Dozen Home Routers · · Score: 1

    Just exploit thousands of them to create new tor exit nodes.

  22. In the aftermath of Boston on Huge Explosion at Texas Fertilizer Plant · · Score: 0

    every Explosion seems to be IT News.

  23. already blocking them on Firefox Will Soon Block Third-Party Cookies · · Score: 1

    but totally forgot when i enabled that setting on chrome. maybe a year ago?

  24. if (genom.substr(x) == 'gtca') { throw 'cancer'; } on Australian Federal Court Rules For Patent Over Breast Cancer Gene · · Score: 1

    So the patent constitutes of the position of the sequence and the information at that position? Another thing why i think the patent system is broken.

  25. robots.txt on Google Redesigns Image Search, Raises Copyright and Hosting Concerns · · Score: 1

    Disallow: /images/ Poof, done.
