    For all you Republicans out there, there will NEVER be another Ronald Reagan

    God I hope so.

  2. Uh huh. Of course, you'll still be struggling to reach 30 fps at 1080p.

  3. Re:Not this shit again on How To End Online Harassment · · Score: 1

    So it is about Zoe Quinn after all.

    Yes, because she's the one that started this whole mess. And it has nothing to do with her being a woman. It has to do with her being a hypocrite, a bad game developer, and an all-around terrible person.

    Hope this helps.

  4. Re: Reminder of who not to credit on 25th Anniversary: When the Berlin Wall Fell · · Score: 1

    MercuriaI is better than git. SVN is better than git. Honestly I would even take CVS over git any day.

  5. Re: Reminder of who not to credit on 25th Anniversary: When the Berlin Wall Fell · · Score: 1

    Yes, Reagan was a lot like git. A lot of people sing his praises, but when you actually look closely at him, he sucked.

  6. No on Help ESR Stamp Out CVS and SVN In Our Lifetime · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Because git is terrible.

  7. Re:Git is an example of Linus Torvalds at his wors on Torvalds: I Made Community-Building Mistakes With Linux · · Score: 2

    Since this is open-source, and you think the documentation is poor, why don't you fix it?

    Good job falling back on the old "Well why don't you just fix it yourself then, smarty man" argument. Congratulations, you are an example of the hostile community we're talking about.

  8. Re:Has it been working so far? on Torvalds: I Made Community-Building Mistakes With Linux · · Score: 4, Funny

    and he gave us git

    And for that I will never forgive him.

  9. Re:Left out, "THIS TIME" on How Nigeria Stopped Ebola · · Score: 1

    So you're worried that the super infectious cancer city will be free to dose us?

  10. Re:Speedy fixes and obvious "relay all to Microsof on Confidence Shaken In Open Source Security Idealism · · Score: 1

    As ESR famously said (but with context this time):
    given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow.

    Addendum: Of course, it might take 20 years for anyone to notice, because everyone is assuming that someone else is looking at it, but whatever.

    Examples?

    Wait, you want examples of people who are too busy to review other people's code? OK, here's one: me.

    What did you have for lunch? THIS IS IMPORTANT!

  13. Re:hum on Systemd Adding Its Own Console To Linux Systems · · Score: 1

    It violates the Unix design philosophy

    If the Unix design philosophy is to have cryptic init files scattered all over creation then it needs to be violated.

  14. Re:metric you insensitive clod! on Fuel Efficiency Numbers Overstate MPG More For Cars With Small Engines · · Score: 1

    I think you mean hogsheads per furlong.

  15. Re:Why do people still care about C++ for kernel d on Object Oriented Linux Kernel With C++ Driver Support · · Score: 1

    The c++ committee has java envy.

    Other way around.

  16. Let me get this straight on Lost Opportunity? Windows 10 Has the Same Minimum PC Requirements As Vista · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Someone on Slashdot is actually complaining that Windows runs well on older hardware? We're through the looking glass here, people.

  17. Re:GamerGate is about sex, not corruption on Intel Drops Gamasutra Sponsorship Over Controversial Editorials · · Score: 1

    But then again, the whole thing about GamerGate was punishing a game developer for the crimes of game development while female, having sex while female,

    No, actually, it was about exposing the hypocrisy of a terrible person (who happens to be female, although that was irrelevant).

  18. Re:FP? on David Cameron Says Brits Should Be Taught Imperial Measures · · Score: 1

    Yes, I mock this because Americans are forced to convert to the rest of the world all the time when traveling

    I agree. The rest of the world needs to stop getting it wrong.

  19. Re:A few things... on What To Expect With Windows 9 · · Score: 1

    1. Really? I want the exact opposite of that. I don't give a crap what's going on under the hood or what the filesystem is doing. Pull a blanket over it, I don't want to see it.

    2. OK

    3. If they allow it you'll get people here posting "Windows is so dumb, it let me copy an mp3 to my phone that it couldn't play!"

    4. See #3.

    5. OK

    Linux you just install once and then it runs and runs, regardless of any updates.

    Maybe a card-based espionage game isn't as compelling as you think it is. Just sayin'.

  22. Re:+ operator for string concat? on Ask Slashdot: What Are the Strangest Features of Various Programming Languages? · · Score: 1

    You missed the point. It's not just concatenating strings, it's concatenating strings and... things that aren't strings. In C++ you can't add a string and an int (well, you can but you have to go out of your way to do it). You will get a long-winded error about not having a '+' operator that takes arguments of those types.

    Except it's not.

    Except it is. Sorry. No one cares if Zoe Quinn sucks 37 dicks (in a row). A lot of people care if she's getting positive press from the owners of those dicks. (Not to mention the fact that she's being a huge hypocrite because by her own definition she raped her boyfriend by sleeping around.)

  24. Re:anyone remember when on Seagate Ships First 8 Terabyte Hard Drive · · Score: 1

    Once, while clearing out a bunch of junk at the office, we found an old invoice for a 1 gigabyte hard drive. For $10,000.

    You must ask yourself honestly : Why is it, when faced with stories like this, is your first instinct to claim that the woman lied or made it up?

    Because years of experience on the Internet has made it so that my first instinct is always to think that a story is a lie or a fabrication no matter the sex of the person involved.
