Oh, I get the difference it's not complex, you can climb down from that high horse you've jumped on. Because really, who are you anyway? Your punditry is pretty shit if you don't get the irony of an unknown asking who another unknown is as if that in itself is a reason to discount them while somehow thinking they are credible. That's okay though if you don't have the ability to pay attention to the subject the rest of us can do that while you point at who said what.
Editors, even in minimal-work aggregation sites like slashdot, you still sort of need to back-up a screed like this with the ranter's credentials to tell me why I should care what he thinks.
...okay, so I Googled him, and see he is a basement-dwelling tech-blogger who looks like a Despicable Me "Minion" but with longer legs. In other words, Walt Mossberg he ain't.
Doesn't change the fact he's pretty much bang on. Ok he might be a bit too ranty and not the most eloquent but he's right. Windows 10 is a hot mess.
With that said who are you and why should anyone care about what you post? Same question goes for everyone I suppose but there must be a point where someone has done enough to be worth paying attention to but how are you going to know if someone is worth paying attention to without paying attention? So next time you come up with a clever who is this person post just remember someone is going to ask who the fuck you are.
Perhaps something similar can be done to you. Considering 17% of posters are AC and are responsible for 90% of shitposts this is clearly a matter of public concern.
Difference is, as a white person I only had the number of children I could personally afford. I had them AFTER obtaining an education and establishing a good career. I never took a penny of welfare money. Unlike the morbidly obese black women I see every day every single time I drive through the city on my commute.
Considering that black males are just over 7% yet account for over 50% of all solved murder cases, and primarily murder other black males, it's remarkable that there remains a black gene pool at all! That means they breed at what should be an exceedingly excessive rate. I guess that's easy when you don't have to worry about mundane concerns like how the hell to pay for all those bastard kids! This is what welfare culture is giving to us. Not a safety net.
Hell with contraceptive darts. Here's a solution: if you want welfare, sure, we'll give you plenty! But, you must agree to surgical sterilization. That's a vascectomy for the very few men who take welfare (remember, WIC = Women Infants and Children), and tubes ties for the women who take welfare. Later, if/when you somehow get back on your feet (haha!), well, children are fucking expensive. If you can afford to reverse the procedure out of your own pocket, then clearly you can also afford children. Then everybody is happy.
Well, that certainly is a problem. Maybe you could take them all into custody and make them work for free or something.
Nah but what you can do is farm out your keyboard to some third party (probably involving paying them a whole bunch of money) then leave it to that company to have a 'server hiccup' that displays ads to your customers. But I suppose that's what you get for farming out your fundamentals to third parties.
If someone wants to use a messaging app, I'm sure by now they've decided on one they like. Unless this is linked into the reviews or questions on Amazon store I'm not sure the point.
If it IS linked into the Amazon store, I'm never asking/answering a question again and I'm not reviewing anything again.
I'd be willing to put money on them doing exactly that. It'll recognise products and link to them for easy shopping, of course they'll just do it on the sly at first until it's going then they'll ramp it up in an update and call it a feature.

Hey, I was going to say that. Maybe I should roll out a new messaging app to tell everyone. I can just say 'Oi, you' and it automagically knows who is meant. No need for twitter style hashtag shit, just go to the window and shout your message into the wind. It'll get there.
How about smart meters on your house? Telling the electrical companies about your usage.
Yes, before smart meters there was nothing that told the power company how much electricity you used.
Oh wait....
Sure they know how much you use, they have to, to bill you. What they don't know is how much energy goes on your hoover, on your tv on your fridge or on your industrial sized electric butt plug.
CNN needs to cover news even if it doesn't fit their narrative
The narrative is all there is; there is no "news". All News is biased in some way, what is and isn't reported is as much bias as putting the spin on the story that twists it in a way you approve.
The idea that there is no bias in news reporting is a fairy tale story they tell you to bite the poisoned apple.
For the most part I agree, but if you want the actual news just read the headlines. Building burns down in a place. Some people killed here. Disaster strikes etc. One line is all you need for the news, it's everything after the headline which is opinion.
Slashdot Mirror
...when you have a good show, people want to see it. Remain flattered, nothing to see here, move along.
Also when you have a shit one that is hyped up beyond all belief apparently.
Nah mate, this is a trolley. You probably call it something else though....like wheelcage
http://unisci24.com/data_image...
Sorry for growing up in the wrong hemisphere but I'm just confused by the American usage of the word 'trolley'.
It just looks like a 'mini-bus' to me.
Same, we push trollies around the shops where I'm from.
^How to make someone miss goatse posts. At least they were short.
I'm guessing these aren't the type of trolleys you push around the shops.
Quick quiz for you: what cell phones are NOT made in China?
Lumia 950.....It's made in Vietnam,
Someone emailed about a fire?!
Your mom is the most repeated joke ever. Followed by you.

Cortana, which still doesn't work in my localized Windows 10.
You lucky, lucky bastard.

Because it is the BBC not Hollywood.
No they're not, they literally have to do nothing to get their money and fill most of their airtime with pensioners going to car boot sales.

If there's no Linux version
Of course there will no no linux version. Not nearly enough people to advertise to and the ones that there are will say 'fuck this shit'

Perhaps the Queen could step in to re-educate this twit since it worked before for his distant ancestor?
The Queen? She's shown that she's more than happy to just let train wrecks happen.

And now what, making news for planing to use tech that's been used since the 60s?
We were building reactors on other planets in the '60s? I guess I really wasn't paying attention.
If you loose your job, there's a good chance you'll loose your drivers license,
I hate it when I can't tighten my job and driver's license.
You loosen your job to stay at home and loosen your license to walking.
Some typos are international.
The fuck is wrong with you?
Supporting young roboticists is exactly the type of thing what Slashdot is all about.
Grow up.
Really? I thought slashdot was all about typos in teh summaries and misplaced rage from people who don't read the articles.
