  1. Re:Not Quite Yet... on A Subscription-Based Movie Theater · · Score: 1

    I heard about that and to make it work you either have to be filthy rich and don't care about the cost and or have a very large family... But I could so see one of these rich gated community invest in one of those for their daycare centre/community room.

  2. Re:Great Deal on A Subscription-Based Movie Theater · · Score: 1

    When you think about it the multiplex is the only medium build that way. Cable and Sat got classic channel for classic TV and Movie, Libraries and Amazon got classic section with great author highlighted. Radio whatever it in FM/AM or streaming got classic channel for every genre of music you could think off. The Multiplex is the only medium dedicated to pumping new content all the time the faster they can milk a movie the better.

  3. Re:Great Deal on A Subscription-Based Movie Theater · · Score: 1

    What I don't get is how come every multiplex is build on the same model? Nobody never take one or two screen and dedicate it to old classic I bet they leave a lot of money on the table by only pumping new stuff.

  4. Re:Great Deal on A Subscription-Based Movie Theater · · Score: 1

    I like the day pass idea better business wise. You are more likely to buy food and drinks inside a movie theatre if you're watching more than one movie.

  5. Re:70% of my friends are water! on Water Bottle Fills Itself From the Air · · Score: 1

    A man's flesh is his own; the water belongs to the tribe.

  7. Re:Changing business models on Media Center Key Accidentally Gives Pirates Free Windows 8 Pro License · · Score: 1

    Considering that Microsoft is moving toward having their own Online Software Store a la "Apps Store". I would not be surprised if Windows 8 at least the home version is the last Windows version for home usage that you ever have to pay for. Odds are they go the Bic way for W9 home edition. "Give away the razor sell the blades!"

  8. Re:Over private property? on Activists' Drone Shot Out of the Sky For Fourth Time · · Score: 1

    I got to ask because I know jack shit about hunting what is an ethical shot? Is that a shot you know will be a sure kill?

  9. Re:I think it's a falsified information. on Anonymous Attacks Israeli Websites In Response To IDF Operation In Gaza · · Score: 1

    They won't do jack squat! They can commit genocide all they want in Gaza but killing a few American teenagers for defacing a few sites will cause way more backlash in the US! Off course they might send the FBI after them but that about it.

  10. Who the hell buy pirated movies? on In Mississippi: 15-Year Jail Sentence For Selling Pirated Movies and Music · · Score: 1

    Hey dumbass! The internet is full of it. Not to mention all the legal movie service either free or paid for.

  14. Chill down my back! on Study: the Universe Has Almost Stopped Making New Stars · · Score: 1

    Sudently I feel a cold chill down my back I look at the haven and said. "Winter is coming!"

  15. Re:Ah... Yeah... on The Survival Machine Farm · · Score: 1

    While creating patent free and open source solution has little aplication in an Apocalypse scenario it does in the real world right now. An example is that patent free and open source modern farming could be deployed in the third world right now.

    lolll First thing that came to mind. The wasteland is one step closer!

  17. Re:Masking tape on Will Microsoft Dis-Kinect Freeloading TV Viewers? · · Score: 1

    It a phone scam hell another one similar is the famous call from a "Microsoft" rep who claim that your Windows security software is out of date. I always let them talk for a while then I point out that I run Linux! lolll

  18. Not really but you got to admire the level of stupidity of the DOJ in this. Win this argument and you might as well have killed the Internet as we know it. Actually no it won't kill the Internet but it sure will kill investment in cloud infrastructure based in the US. Way to kill off local jobs just to suck the dicks of the MPAA!

  19. Re:Net energy? on Scientists Turn Air Into Petrol · · Score: 1

    It might not be all that energy efficient yet but if it solar powered and you can build these factories inside cities it would help clean up the air. Provided you can mass produce the factories it one of the first step toward terraforming the planet to reduce climate change or more likely reduce human impact on climate change.

  20. Re:Make it illegal on Hiring Smokers Banned In South Florida City · · Score: 1

    You could gain way more productivity if you just get rid of solitaire in some office!

    Florida is a "right to work" state! That fucking oxymoron mean that they can fire your ass for just about anything.

  22. Re:It's not broken. on Ask Slashdot: How Would You Fix the Linux Desktop? · · Score: 1

    Most of the Linux desktop environment are so similar that the learning curve barely exist. It vendors lock in that keep Microsoft on top. To break that will require massive marketing, lobbying for more government and education institution to go Linux and maybe a push for legislation to force Government contract bid to consider OSS solution on equal footing with Microsoft and Apple. Unless the OSS community stop squabbling over all sort of bullshit debates and find the money to do these things. Linux will remain the little secret of a few happy users.

  23. Re:Surely I'm not the only one surprised by this? on Police Probing Theft of Millions of Pounds of Maple Syrup From Strategic Reserve · · Score: 1

    And I believe the guy controlling that fat market is named Durden, Tyler Durden!

  24. Re:Maple Syrup Strategic Reserve? on Police Probing Theft of Millions of Pounds of Maple Syrup From Strategic Reserve · · Score: 1

    It a bit of a local joke that hide a more sinister purpose the "Maple Syrup Strategic Reserve" is just a scheme to keep price high. All the Quebec producers are selling mostly to one distributor and that right there is 80% of the world production of Maple Syrup. If they feel that demand slack they put more product out if demand is high they hoard a bit more reducing and maximise profit. Also like it was pointed out you only need one or two bad spring to screw up production and for supply to drop so the reserve is an edge against that also.

  25. Re:Kill the dragon and save both of you on Phony Laser Security System Proves Perception Is Reality · · Score: 1
