  1. Re:unteathered on Apple Is Back To Being the World's Top Wearable Maker (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    so... it only matters who does it first? Well then... about your android phone...

  2. Re:this cost me a weekend once on Why Does Microsoft Still Offer a 32-bit OS? (backblaze.com) · · Score: 1

    Yes but that's OFFICE, not Windows. You can easily run Windows 64 bit and Office 32 bit.

  3. Just sue all ISP's while you're at it! on Social Media Giants Sued For Helping ISIS (torontosun.com) · · Score: 1

    After all, THEY let the bad guys ON TO the Internet! I'm sorry, I feel for these people but come on...

  4. Re: What planet are you on? on The Windows 10 Creators Update Is Now Available (bleepingcomputer.com) · · Score: 1

    You could use just MS Office on Mac or Linux... or just use Google Docs.

  5. And still my g/f complains I'm too fast ;) on Astronomers Find Star Orbiting a Black Hole At 1 Percent the Speed of Light (sciencealert.com) · · Score: 1

    1% the speed of light eh? and yet my g/f complains I go to fast ;)

  6. Um... where they forced to accept credit cards? If you are accepting someone's 3rd party method of payment, aren't agreeing to THEIR terms?

  7. Re:Define "work" on There's Even More Evidence That Fitness Trackers Don't Work (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    Agreed. There's also a big different (IMHO) between being given an activity tracker and seeking out out yourself.

  8. Re:Pretty cool on Plex Cloud Means Saying Goodbye To the Always-On PC (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Well, squid porn CAN be quite popular ;)

  9. Re: This will change EVERYTHING on Apple To Open Up Siri To Developers, Release An Amazon Echo Competitor (bgr.com) · · Score: 1

    Even I know he/she means the Mac MINI was from 2006, not the iPhone 4

  10. hour means you're just fine. Go figure.

  11. Large Files on Microsoft Backs Down, Lets OneDrive Users Keep Their Free 15GB of Storage · · Score: 1

    "Microsoft mentioned that some subscribers were hosting movies and large files on the service" You mean they... they... they were using what they were giving? Those greedy bastards!

  12. Re:Netflix on Microsoft, Law Enforcement Disrupt Dorkbot Botnet (technet.com) · · Score: 2

    Many people re-use the same password so in theory, getting someone's netflix password could get you into other sites.

  13. Re:i know i wasn't supposed to read TFA, but... on Google Accused of Tracking School Kids After Promising Not To (cio.com) · · Score: 3, Informative

    "Why in the hell are schools requiring students to use Chromebooks?" Cost. Less technical problems than MacOS/Windows/Linux. Easy to collaborate with others, etc. And yes, I'm the IT guy for a school handing out Chromebooks. Two full time IT employees, 1500 students, 300 staff. Chromebooks just do the job well.

  14. Swallow the comments on Swallow the Doctor: The Present and Future of Robots Inside Us (hackaday.com) · · Score: 1

    Never mind me, I just came here to read the "swallow" comments ;)

  15. Yes Sir our code is breakable, you just have to brute force it for a few thousand years or have a REALLY fast collection of computers. Do you have that Minister? Oh, you don't? Well, it's still breakable, just not by YOU then :)

  16. Re:This will work great.. on Illinois Students Suspected of Cyberbullying Must Provide Social Media Passwords · · Score: 1

    IF they sign in, they have to claim to agree with the TOS.

  17. took awhile on Ask Slashdot: Are Progressive Glasses a Mistake For Computer Users? · · Score: 1

    It took me a while to get use to them, about 6 weeks. Then when it was time for new glasses I tried going without them. Didn't make it to the car before I realized how much I needed them. Luckily they only charged me the different to get them again.

  18. Re:So everything is protected by a 4 digit passcod on Apple Will No Longer Unlock Most iPhones, iPads For Police · · Score: 1

    Only if you chose to use a 4 digit passcode. Mine is much longer. Plus, you only have 10 tries.

  19. How is this news? on School Installs Biometric Fingerprint System For Cafeteria · · Score: 1

    How is this news? I work at a public school (in IT) and we've had this option for a number of years (just opted to go with pin number instead, cleaner and cheaper) so I would expect many schools have been doing this for a while.

  20. Re: Perfect on Microsoft Launches Office For iPad: Includes Word, Excel, and PowerPoint · · Score: 3, Funny

    "airplane mode"? Hey, I want to be able to FIND my phone, not lose it in the ocean :)

  21. Re:stfu and learn noob on New iOS Keylogging Vulnerability Discovered · · Score: 1

    The biggest? Really? I'm hope your using humor.

  22. Re: "Good news for hardware enthusiasts!" on Out-of-the-Box, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS To Support TRIM On SSDs · · Score: 1

    What does desktop vs. laptop have to do with it? Plenty of people use SSD's in desktops (I sure do)

  23. Re:But will it run Linux? on A Look At Microsoft's 'Mini Internet' For Testing IE · · Score: 1

    I think the real question is: Will it blend? (sorry, I couldn't resist)

  24. Good Idea on HP Making webOS Open Source · · Score: 1

    I'm personally not a fan of WebOS but I see this as a good thing. In my minds eye, the very least it will do is be good will for HP.
