    The Educational version of Minecraft is called "Minecraft."

  2. Re:My Commodore 64 on Can Your Hardware Top 18 Years and Ten Months? (theregister.co.uk) · · Score: 2

    What was the temperature today?

  3. A Spoon? on RIP Alan Rickman, AKA Hans Gruber, Severus Snape (variety.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    So it will hurt more, stupid.

  4. Cold Storage? on Panasonic To Commercialize Facebook's Blu-Ray Cold Storage Systems (cio.com) · · Score: 0

    Optical discs? Isn't that some crap from like the days of dual floppy drives. Cold storage? How come they gotta keep the storage cold, doesn't the refrigeration cost a bunch? One Terabyte? Is that all?

  5. Re:My wish for Android... on Google Previews Android Studio 2.0 (sdtimes.com) · · Score: 1

  7. Security on Report: Google To Fold Chrome OS Into Android (wsj.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Isn't this one of those things where they make a product with an emphasis on security, and then as it gains some popularity, people want more features, more functionality, and so they start adding those features and functionality, and then they just start turning it more and more into Android, and then the security holes and malware problems with Android start to appear in Chrome OS, and then the advantages that Chrome OS had vanish? Isn't it one of those things? Is it really impossible to just have two different platforms with emphasis on different strengths? I think the marketing people are doing this. I blame them.

  8. This is how Gaston Glock got in the handgun market, a contract for a new sidearm for the Austrian military. I don't know handguns. All the makers have compact models now, and it seems like Glock took over the American handgun market some time ago. What do you think the chances are the US military switches to a polymer sidearm?

  9. Not the real reason on Not Just Paris: Community Activists Target Data Centers (datacenterfrontier.com) · · Score: 4, Funny

    It's not really any of the power or infrastructure issues. It's the unpleasant programmer demographic with their geeky T-shirts and poor social graces that come into the neighborhood. They pop up in the coffee shops talking in acronyms and babbling on and on about technical matters. The neighborhood wants them gone.

  10. Diesel technology... on Volkswagen Diesel Scandal Spreads To Porsche and Audi · · Score: 1

    is cleaner than it was, but not THAT much cleaner.

  11. Because... on John McAfee On Why He's Running For President · · Score: 1

    Because he is under investigation for murder and wants to pardon himself when he wins the election.

  12. Stab on Chrome To Freeze Flash Ads On Sight From September 1 · · Score: 0

    They stab it with their steely knives, but they just can't kill Flash.

  13. stop trying to correct this with the obvious suggestions to shell out $60. This is a good thing.

  14. When I find out who leaked this to the Feds we're going to have a purge. Workers of the world unite! You have nothing to lose but your chains!

  15. Spotted on Finnish Police: If You See Uber Car, Call 911 · · Score: 1

    I spotted one, dialed 911, and a very confusing conversation occurred between myself and the Dallas Police Department.

  16. Excellent on Chemical Treatment Transforms Skin Cells Into Neurons · · Score: 2

    Now I will be able to turn my entire epidermis into neurons increasing my thought capacity by a factor of 12. However, I may start to hallucinate when I put on sunscreen.

  17. Re:Future market on Tesla Model S Has Been Hacked · · Score: 2

  19. Re:Future market on Tesla Model S Has Been Hacked · · Score: 1

    Correct, this is what I am saying.

  20. Future market on Tesla Model S Has Been Hacked · · Score: 1

    Some day there will be a market for a car with no on board computer or electronics. The intro to the first Fallout game features a television commercial for a car called the Corvega, with no electronics and no computer for only $199,999.99. In a world on the verge of nuclear war, or one on the verge of computer security catastrophe, sounds like a steal.

  21. Why is all the stuff broke? Why does all the stuff have holes in it? Why isn't there any stuff that isn't broke? ARM processors from now on. All this stuff is broke.

  22. Other products on Israeli Security Company Builds "Unhackable" Version of Windows · · Score: 5, Funny

    You may want to take a look at some of this company's other products, including flying serum and invisibility powder.

  23. Fixing 8 on Windows 10 Start Menu Wins IDSA Design Award · · Score: 3, Insightful

    If they fix the UI, then they fix 90% of the problems they had selling Windows 8. I don't know what IT departments opinions are of the spyware features in the OS. I'm sure they can find a way to configure it to their liking. Does a uniform UI across all devices translate into sales of tablets and mobile devices however? I am skeptical. The iOS and Android trains left the station a long time ago.

  24. Double Word Score on The French Scrabble Champ Does Not Speak French · · Score: 1

    And I spell F-R-E-N-C-H-T-O-A-S-T that's 45 points with a double word score for 90 points.

    My generation just had drugs and alcohol to destroy our attention span.
