  1. Assisted Reality, kinda like the assisted living brochures he probably has been perusing.

  2. Re:Is Human Contact some sort of app? FTFY on Apple CEO Tim Cook On Virtual Reality: There's No Substitute For Human Contact (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    there is no app for that

  3. pretty sure he just missed the 15 at the end.

  4. voting day holiday on Senator Wants Nationwide, All-Mail Voting To Counter Election Hacks (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    why is this not a thing for registered voters?

  5. so it doesn't " allows virtual reality shoppers to pay for things just by nodding their heads."
    great article and tech now get off /. lawn

  6. another perfect example of why everything doesn;t fucking need to be connected to the internet

  7. that is an interesting pov. what happens if you take out a print ad with site addresses?

  8. they could store it on their penis as long as that penis is isolated from all internet facing slots.

  9. and how is that even relevant unless Maritz is also running to be the president.

  10. Re:H-1B abuse and Trump FTFY on Outsourced IT Workers Ask Sen Feinstein For Help, Get Form Letter in Return (computerworld.com) · · Score: 2

    "he _says_ he intends to fix the rules" " in their(his) best interest"

  11. its a MAD world.

  12. just get started on the killbot then, the future is nigh as AI is almost around the corner. also invest in the flying pig delivery system.

  13. Re:I might be a bit thick on Court Rejects Massive Torrent Damages Claim, Admin Avoids Jail (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 1

    was about to say the same, hence no one from google, samsung or apple in jail

  14. he is more like the getaway car manufacturer or the contractor that made the road.
    or in a more us example the gun manufacturer. lets see when was the last time any of them were held accountable!!

  15. Re:Now I know what self driving car not to buy on Toyota Raises Concerns About California Self-Driving Oversight, Calls It 'Preposterous' (reuters.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    their attempt at self accelerating cars was the first warning ;)

  16. Re:why is this a national issue? on White House Vows 'Proportional' Response For Russian DNC Hack (go.com) · · Score: 2

    proportional response would be to add the dnc CTO to the uscert email alerts and send them to security class.
    and let them know that its ok to say no to any asshat that says can i play angrybirds on my secure phone.

  17. ok lets not care about security, lets put convenience on the forefront and then start an electronic war rather than deal with the actual cause.
    well that has been our modus operandi when it comes to actual wars and foreign policy so why change now.

    time to invest in the next gen govt electronic military industrial contractors. yayyyy raytheon stock will go up

  18. risk assessment and risk understanding typically stand at odds, but if the shitstorm is big enough maybe that will change.

  19. unfortunately, the decision makers are not the typical Slashdot crowd and lack of understanding and the incentive to capitalize on that lack are greater motivators than making sound technological decisions.

  20. also "Slashdot consensus" don't take into account marketing and are mostly based on technology assessment/ use case.
    marketing and ad-service ecosystem sustain themselves regardless of validity or functionality of a product. look at windows 10 :)

  21. they mentioned for internal use "its distributed bank branches" so maybe yeah they should have tried this new thing called email or an intranet...

  22. as compared to google? or microsoft?

    i would venture that your sanity is safe. none of this crap matters until there is a way to integrate disparate systems to actually collaborate based on standards and that will never happen because then... none of their crap will matter.

  25. Re:What's good for the goose on WikiLeaks Releases Paid Clinton Speech Excerpts, And Threatens To Expose Google (dailymail.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    a better statement would probably be that the majority of current and future voting democrats are no longer fir the current democratic agenda or party and thus Bernie is a better fit for them.
    perhaps the 2 party monopoly is no longer an acceptable political structure.
