  2. Jorbs. on W3C Says Don't Use HTML5 Yet · · Score: 3, Funny

    Finalized standards are the leading cause of cold chairs. W3C and IEEE are doing their part to combat this injustice.

    But someone will complain that the vinyl sounds better.

    No, Marvell.

  8. Re:Say what you will about the tenets of... on Promised Microsoft Tablet 'No Thicker Than Sheet of Glass' · · Score: 1

    Let's not forget, Scrameustache, that citing Godwin, BetterSense, for uh, posting, you know, on Slashdot, that isn't legal either.

  11. Re:Lets see the parade on Samsung Galaxy Tablet Coming In September · · Score: 1

    The only non-phone Android device you could readily buy in NA up until a couple of months ago was the B&N Nook. And that's an eReader with a skinny little color touch LCD right below the screen.

  12. Re:Lawsuits or not, it's sort-of Linux and Java on Samsung Galaxy Tablet Coming In September · · Score: 1

    I saw something like that once. It was like a graph with the X axis representing time and Y axis representing time. Sort-of horizontal error bars made of dots with vertical lines joined at the top by horizontal lines told you a sound's duration. I heard that all the professional musicians are using it.

  13. Re:Book Cover on The Misleading World of Atari 2600 Box Art · · Score: 1

    I read this book and found the language to be suited to harsh environments, stubborn, and smelly.

  14. Re:The reviewer was right! on Calling Shenanigans On Super SATA's Claimed Audio Qualities · · Score: 1

    A SATA cable made to the standard's specs is fully shielded, uses a balanced and uniform impedance pair in each direction, and has multiple ground pins at the connectors. As far as cables go, it shouldn't leak any appreciable EMI compared to the other components.

  15. Re:Eh? on Calling Shenanigans On Super SATA's Claimed Audio Qualities · · Score: 1

    Well, you can't be too sure. Maybe he forgot to fill his listening room with at least 95% sulfur hexafluoride. Air isn't a good enough insulator to bring out the best in the music.

  16. Re:Eh? on Calling Shenanigans On Super SATA's Claimed Audio Qualities · · Score: 1

    Except he claims to be using his cable in his NAS, so presumably the DAC is about four isolation transformers and a couple of hundred feet of CAT5 away from this supposedly magic SATA cable.

  17. Re:Mod the summary funny on 'Wi-Fi Illness' Spreads To Ontario Public Schools · · Score: 1

    Did you know that there are studies underway to fluoridate salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk, ice cream? Ice cream, mysidia? Children's ice cream!

  18. Re:Hurray! Let's get this Clown out of Business on Obama Wants Allies To Go After WikiLeaks · · Score: 1

    No, excessive line breaks and arbitrary caps make you look like Gene Ray. No caps or paragraphs make your post look like a blog entry from 2003.

    Never... Always check your references.

  22. Re:Glossy screens with polarized glasses are ideal on Does Anyone Really Prefer Glossy Screens? · · Score: 4, Interesting

    With my polarized sunglasses on I have to tilt my head at just the right angle to read my car stereo's display or see the screen on my phone. Are there standards for CE LCD polarization or specially polarized glasses intended for this purpose? If not, I'd think there would be some advantage for LCD manufacturers to come up with a common polarization angle so that glasses would work without going through contortions.

  23. Re:Yikes - this makes news on Slashdot? on Google Tests Multiple Account Login · · Score: 1

    That was news BECAUSE Windows Mobile (and PalmOS and Symbian) had copy/paste for years.

  24. Re:All in all... on Don't Stop File-Sharing, Says Former Pink Floyd Manager · · Score: 5, Funny

    It doesn't have to be like this.

    All we need to do is make sure we keep torrenting.
