  1. Re:Overvalued ... on News Corp. Looking To Sell MySpace · · Score: 0

    Altavista was an advertisement for DEC. It wasn't a search company. If you thought it would somehow win out over a dedicated search company, you weren't paying any attention to reality.

  2. Re:Let me say on Voyager Set To Enter Interstellar Space · · Score: 0

    Then you have the fact that true is not defined as 1. It's defined as !false, and false is defined as 0. In C (and direct descendants such as C++ and Objective C), any non-zero value is true.

  3. Re:Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory on China's High-Speed Trains Coming Off the Rails · · Score: 0

    I would venture to say that the primary reason that low-speed transport has more accidents is that there is an order, or more, of magnitude more of it. Additionally, high-speed transport causes far more damage/fatalities per incident, as most high-speed transport is also high passenger/vehicle transport.

    Wall Mart? Is that where you go for building supplies? Most people shop at Walmart.

  5. Re:it is why on The Real Reason Apple Is Suing Samsung · · Score: 0

    It's effectively impossible to "win" in the market when your competitors simply copy your designs verbatim. I know that Samsung is not copying that closely, but it appears that the point of the suit is that they are trying to do so.

    The 'joke' is not funny, but you are a moron.

    Google does not develop openly. They write all the code in-house and they release the source when they wish. This is no different than Apple, except Apple doesn't release the source for as many components.

    You state that it's expensive for Apple to maintain their source code, but there's no proof offered. Google has WAY more code maintained in-house than Apple does. So, in conclusion, you're an anti-Apple shit face.

  8. Re:Amazon beat them both on Apple To Beat Google On Cloud Music · · Score: 0

    I know many Apple users, some going back to the Apple II days. I have never once had anyone try and convince me that Apple was superior to the point of denigrating my choice to use something else. That has only happened on slashdot, and not by Apple users.

    The perception that you try to project on Apple users is just that -- a projection. The feelings, attitudes and behaviors are all yours, you hypocritical shit.

    The UN is full of shit. If elementary education is compulsory, it's not a right, it's a punishment.

  12. Re:With tax money and rights taken by government on Berners-Lee: Web Access Is a 'Human Right' · · Score: 0

    I agree that Internet access of any kind is not a human right, but you really need to reread the Constitution. It explicitly states that any rights not granted to the Federal government or to the States are reserved to the people. If Internet access were a right, we would have a Constitutional guarantee to that right.

  13. Re:Made my day.. on Court Rejects Winklevoss Twins' Facebook Appeal · · Score: 0

    All involved in covering up evidence should be prosecuted for attempted murder. There is absolutely no question that they wanted this man dead even though they knew he was innocent. That's conspiracy to commit murder.

    There is NO justice in the United States of America. NONE.

  14. Re:killer app on Quad-Core Mobile Chips Wasted On Mobiles? · · Score: 1

    Either you haven't used a modern smartphone, or Android really does suck. I own a first-gen iPod Touch (and iPad), and have no complaints. Then again, perhaps my expectations are more reasonable.

    I have never seen a portable charger that would move an electric car more than a couple of inches before running out of power. I know half a dozen people with gas cans.

    You are an idiot, a moron, and a piece of shit. EVs are bad because they are completely impractical for many situations. And they cost way more than an IC to own.

  21. Re:"Standardize hardware" might be the wrong term. on Android 3.0 Is Trickling In, But Are the Apps? · · Score: 1

    I've never seen an Android phone that listed the Android version on the box. With any iDevice, you can check under Settings->General->About to see what version you're running.

    And I just had my app's update approved last week... runs on everything from 3.1.3 (supports the 1st-gen devices) through 4.3.

    I don't have a cell phone (except for a PAYG that isn't charged, has no money on it, and doesn't do 3G anyway). I cannot use my employer's WIFI with personal devices, and I spend most of my waking hours at work or en-route. Not everyone is a college brat or an unemployed bum mooching WIFI of their parents.
