  1. Re:Strategy on Netflix Is Now Worth More Than $100 Billion (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    Even for free, for a month.

  2. "No-one wants your used clothes anymore" on 'No One Wants Your Used Clothes Anymore' (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Could've fooled me. Street near me has about six charity shops. People drop in clothes all the time, they sell them, and the money goes to various causes. So uh, this article is bollocks.

  3. Re:This says little about AI on AI Beats Humans at Reading Comprehension (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Dosh is its own plural.

  4. Re:Yes. Yes it is. on Is Finland's Universal Basic Income Trial Too Good To Be True? (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Your average slashdot denizen has no need for science, because they already know everything.

    Thanks for clearing up everybody's misconceptions.

    e.g. Everybody thought this wasn't welfare. Everybody thought the money was coming from nowhere. Everybody thought that lazy people didn't exist. Your lack of ability to think in a nuanced way is painfully fucking obvious.

  6. Makes you think the world is against Apple doesn't it? I bet it does. Tough old life.

  7. That won't work with a Timothy McVeigh type. And you've got a lot of those coming through the woodwork now. Of course, they can't be terrorists because they're white, but they can still blow stuff up and kill lots of people. Maybe you'll need a new word for when white people do it, I dunno.

  8. Re:My brain can't absorb this on Astronomers May Be Closing in on Source of Mysterious Fast Radio Bursts (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Well, credit to you for not being like the average slashdotter and immediately dismissing anything and everything you don't understand.

  9. Re:Hmm, And I thought a repeat on Astronomers May Be Closing in on Source of Mysterious Fast Radio Bursts (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    It's almost as if the scientific process itself is designed to remove bias. And, when executed properly, that's exactly what it does.

    But you go ahead and pretend that science doesn't work because someone once had an experiment give a false positive because of a microwave.

  10. Pulsars are neutron stars. FRBs are (probably) neutron stars.

  11. Re:That’s the problem with science on Astronomers May Be Closing in on Source of Mysterious Fast Radio Bursts (theguardian.com) · · Score: 2

    The reason you believe all this shit, and it is just that - meaningless fucking word salad shit, is because you're fucking stupid.

    The scientific consensus is different from your opinion on many of these subjects. And it's not the scientific consensus that's wrong. It's you. Again, because you're fucking stupid.

    Hope this helps.

  12. Re:I'm not saying it's aliens but.. on Astronomers May Be Closing in on Source of Mysterious Fast Radio Bursts (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Nobody credible is saying that it's aliens. It's a natural phenomenon. It clearly isn't a fucking microwave, but thanks for the genuinely idiotic suggestion.

  13. Re:747 not the Only One on US Airlines No Longer Operate the Boeing 747 (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Tinfoil won't cut it, but definitely consider a lead-lined hat.

    Wow you're all still obsessed with Hillary. Weird.

    No. The scale ran out of names quite some time ago.

  16. Meanwhile on White House Bans Use of Personal Devices From West Wing (cbsnews.com) · · Score: 1

    You have a handbag designer 'advising' the president. LOL. Apparently she's going to be president some day too. Wouldn't surprise me.

  17. Regulatory Capture on The FCC Is Preparing To Weaken the Definition of Broadband (dslreports.com) · · Score: 1

    The foxes are well and truly running your hen house now. You'd be better off disbanding the FCC altogether.

  18. Re: But they will keep throttling on Apple Will Replace Old iPhone Batteries Regardless of Diagnostic Test Results (macrumors.com) · · Score: 1

    Top marks for telling us the name of the supervisor. That was crucial to the fucking story, as were the hashtags.

    Slashdot doesn't use hashtags, mate.

  19. Re: But they will keep throttling on Apple Will Replace Old iPhone Batteries Regardless of Diagnostic Test Results (macrumors.com) · · Score: 1

    Consider this - this guy is lying, anonymously, on a web forum, to defend a product that he almost certainly has no personal stake in.

    It really ought to punch a hole in time with sheer patheticness. Why it doesn't is an enduring mystery.

  20. Re:MARXISM on Germany Starts Enforcing Hate Speech Law (bbc.com) · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Mate, go live somewhere with no laws. There are a few of them. Stay there. You'll fucking love it.

    I'd like to sit down and have a serious talk with you regarding the nature of reality.

    Don't do it to yourself. You'd have a horrible time and it would be a waste of time. Talk to someone who might listen.

    ISIS destroyed. You're claiming that? LOL.

    You really are just a bunch of stupid cunts, really. No curing that.

    I'm assuming you're from the west. You know what would have happened if you'd decided to have even less children than you're already having?

    You'd be in the middle of an existential fucking crisis. Children turn into adults who pay taxes. What are you going to turn into? A fucking burden on society.

    You're already a burden to me, talking shit.

    Oh Jesus. The sig explains it. Safe to ignore this chump.

    You've apparently just pointed out that houses are tangible things whereas the right to copy and profit from a work is abstract.

    Everybody else already fucking knew that mate. Your point is asinine and your example only works if you're incapable of nuanced thought.

    But then, I always know it's going to be complete bollocks when I see your name up there.
