  1. Nothing new. on Sprint Pushes FPS NOVA With Firmware — and Users Can't Remove It · · Score: 1

    This happens all the time on Windows. Why are people getting mad like pre-loaded stuff you do not want is something new? Also, if you're the kind of person that will get upset over it, you probably have a custom rom on.

  2. I was confused. on Gaming Is the Most Popular Use For Tablets · · Score: 2

    Here i thought the tablets computers main use was a substitute for toilet paper, or some sort of laxative. I really could not figure out what the main use was.

  3. Yeah all IT pros want to. on Ask Slashdot: Would You Take a Pay Cut To Telecommute? · · Score: 0

    "IT pros want to telecommute — so much so that more than one-third of those surveyed by Dice.com said they would take a pay cut for the chance to work full time from home" Yes. Obviously all of of the IT professionals want to telecommute if 33% of them say yes. The other 66% do not matter.

  4. I've got it. on FBI Wants You To Solve Encrypted Notes From Murder · · Score: 1

    It says "Youmadbro?"

  5. Seen it. on Turning Your E-Reader Into a Cheap Tablet · · Score: 1

    This has been on instructables for a really long time...

  6. Re:the insane graphics card prices kill the deal on How the PC Is Making Consoles Look Out of Date · · Score: 1

    The only reason you use your xbox to stream media is because you don't have the PC plugged in. Why not just plug your computer into your tv and play from there all the time.

  7. Knew it! on Asus Motherboard Box Doubles As PC Case · · Score: 4, Funny

    .I knew my cardboard box fort making skills would come in handy some day!

  8. Seeds on my shoes? on Biodegradable Sneakers Sprout Flowers When Planted · · Score: 2

    Last time i tried to put my seeds on someones shoes I was put in jail for a quite a long while. So unfair :(

  9. Dwarf fortress? on Iceland Eyes Liquid Magma As Energy Source · · Score: 1

    And then they will set up a masonry and make 50 beds. Then they will set up 100 stone fall traps around the entrance to their fortress. I don't know why they named it Iceland though, that has no anus in it.

  10. Muse has re titled their song on Supermassive Black Holes Not So Big After All · · Score: 1

    Muse has retitled their song "Still fairly large black hole"

  11. Huh. Really? on The Joys of Running a Bug Bounty Program · · Score: 0

    So people who do things against the law do not like to follow rules? Really?

  12. Indie coffee shops.. on Tech-Unfriendly Cafes Say No Kindles Allowed · · Score: 1

    The only people i know that own e-readers are the kids that go to those indie coffee shops (and a few nerds). That is like banning scarves. Or pants that are to tight. Your pants must be this loose to enter...

  13. Not everyone is computer savvy on An Open Letter To PC Makers: Ditch Bloatware, Now! · · Score: 1

    Not every user is computer savvy so they may want said bloatware because it makes things "just work." Which is what a lot of non computer savvy people want. If your computer savvy and don't want the bloatware, just take if off your machine or build your own machine or wipe the os. Having bloatware on the machine isn't a problem for some people and it helps alleviate some of the cost of the commercial computer. Protip: If you factory reset a computer when you first get it it usually deletes all the bloatware. Or at least it has for me.

  14. IMPOSSIBLE! on New Critical Bug In All Current Windows Versions · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    What?!?! A bug in a microsoft product!!! Good thing its open source so I'm sure a developer will fix it soon. Oh wait...

  15. This makes me sad on Sony Wins Restraining Order Against Geohot · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Coporations should not be able to do this...

  16. Internet pirate on Court Rules Dungeons and Dragons Threatens Prison Security · · Score: 1

    Come on, thats stupid. Now what will i do when i go to jail for internet piracy??!?!

  17. Awkward on Apple App Store Hits 10B App Download Mark · · Score: 1

    It was a bit awkward when they told her what app her son had downloaded. Apparently she did not approve of "Almost nude sexy girls on the beach."

  18. Rice university on "Farming" Amoebas Discovered · · Score: 2

    Anyone think it is weird that this was found out at Rice University?

  19. Re:Its time for YOU to learn c++ on Are 10-11 Hour Programming Days Feasible? · · Score: 1

    Tell the boss to learn c++ or whatever language you use. Nothing at all is worth that.

    Better yet, tell him to learn a language you don't use. If he calls you on it, you laugh with him; if he doesn't you laugh at him - after he's done a semester or two.

    Tell him to learn fortran 95.

  20. I found a bug on Google Pushes New Chrome Release, Pays $14k Bounty · · Score: 2

    "Hello google, i found a bug." "Did you fix it?" "Yeah here is 100 man hours of work and 1,000 lines of code" "k, cool, heres $10"

  21. Its time for YOU to learn c++ on Are 10-11 Hour Programming Days Feasible? · · Score: 1

    Leave. Nothings worth it. Tell the boss to learn c++ or whatever language you use. Nothing at all is worth that.

  22. Us department of interiors response on Google Wins Injunction Against Agency Using Microsoft Cloud · · Score: 1

    1. Google cloud services 2. Have random intern scroll through 100 pages of google 3. Go with microsoft.

  23. Re:Porn game on Kinect Creators To Make PC Controller · · Score: 1

    MUST HAVE.

  24. Porn game on Kinect Creators To Make PC Controller · · Score: 3, Funny

    Sounds like that porn game is actually going to get developed now.
