    You have to keep up on the /. herd mentality. It changes regularly, and typically by Pi radians.

  2. Re:I don't hate on systemd but this is really bad on Multiple Linux Distributions Affected By Crippling Bug In Systemd (agwa.name) · · Score: 2

    You forgot to sign your comment with "MCSE".

    I never thought the day would come that I would miss Timothy and kdawson.

    I don't really disagree with your overall conclusions, but Benghazi happened on September 11th. US federal elections are the first Tuesday after November 1st - almost two months later.

  5. I didn't find that in TFA.

  6. During normal operation of the device, it's not scanning fingerprints. It's only when it's locked.

  7. You have to bring the lock screen up and then carefully hold your finger on the button while it scans. A simple accidental brushing of the scanner wouldn't suffice.

  8. TFA doesn't say why this would be legally fuzzy.

  9. Thank you. I was hoping someone was going to point that out. From what I know, it was creeks that run through town that overflowed. I can't imagine the Mississippi getting high enough to cause flooding in BR.

  10. Re:Why? on Wrong Chemical Dumped Into Olympic Pools Made Them Green (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I found the explanation amusing. Now I'm looking forward to the explanation of how two dangerous chemicals, sodium and chlorine, combine to form a compound essential to life.

    They need to rebrand this page in yellow and black and call it "Slashdot for Dummies".

    Obviously he just hasn't posted the same comment in enough threads. I'm sure he'll get some bites if he keeps casting.

  12. My unsupported Tab 10.1 is what put me in the same camp as you in regard to Samsung. The one and only update Samsung provided for it resulted in a bug that would cause any app to crash if you tried to copy anything you highlighted. Fixing that required rooting it so I could delete a corrupt database file - which I knew how to do because so many other people had the same problem. I might as well have just burned the money for all the use I got out of it (that wasn't the only flaw in the thing, just the worst).

  13. Phoenix has the same service. In our case, I think it's partly because we have a number of Amazon shipping centers (warehouses). That + population.

    Stop with the reasonable discussion already. You're ruining a perfectly good hate fest.

    I'm going to guess that he didn't fall for it, but that his wife did.

  17. Wrong. Larger THAN. Hi BeauHD!

    At 126 square centimeters, Facebook's new laser detector is thousands of times larger.

    Umm. Than what? Who writes this crap?

    I've never had Apple Music, neither trial nor paid. How can this be when it supposedly "auto-activates"? And yes, I have an iPhone.
