I use Slashdot for a very long time and still some questions on main page kills me. What was the reason you purchased Smart TV in the first place? Did you buy it to be "cool" or what? Or you just wanted standard TV but you have seen this one is "smart" so it must be better? I use Samsung Smart TV and I bought it mainly for two reasons: - Netflix - Youtube I understand you don't use these services. Because they don't work without internet access. Because they are internet services. So what do you do on your "smart" TV? Watch "smart" programs or what?
I remember Digg and Obama campaign. It was brainwashing stronger than in Orwell's 1984. Now we see same with Hilary Clinton. Some things never changes.
I live in Poland. I use Slashdot for a long time. I remember first Obama campaign and pathetic political propaganda on Digg. Not just bad, it was really pathetic. Looks like you will never learn, now there is a huge anti-Trump propaganda on Slashdot. Twitter should shut down his account? What about facebook? Google? Why this community is so brainwashed?
In Poland playing poker tournament without valid license is illegal. Online poker is also illegal. I am not joking. People here are so brainwashed by Civic Platform that they still consider this party "liberal".
When most people hear "Pascal" what they really have in their minds is "Turbo Pascal" by Borland. So they compare very old Borland IDE with Visual Studio or Eclipse.
I used flickr years ago, then I switched to 500px. Yesterday I wanted to check out how flickr looks now, I did basic test - display best photos. On 500px you can just click "popular" and you can browse amazing photography. How to do it on flickr? After few minutes I resigned, because all I saw was just crap.
information about kernel developer / russian invasion on Ukraine is not important?
Because it's a personal interested story about some guy protesting something that his government did and getting arrested for it.. oh and BTW he's a kernel developer.
TFA has fuck all to do with the state of Russian/Ukraine protests - so it doesn't even count as politics It is barely tangentially a technology story - oh noes if a kernel developer goes to jail, what will happened to my precious ^w Linux
So I assume you wrote similar comments to all news about 9/11 or any american politics, which is not related to technology at all? Or do you mean that Ukraine is not important while USA is?
I completely disagree. Why bull**** about "global warming" is important "news for nerds" and information about kernel developer / russian invasion on Ukraine is not important? I think Slashdot was much more intesting 10 years ago than it is now, but your comment shows that this direction is not accidental.
"Recent data shows 20 percent of mobile games get opened once and never again." I was trying to understand what these numbers mean but I failed. What's your point? If the cost of game is zero then anyone can try it, just like anyone could install demo version or just watch gameplay on youtube. While I agree that in-app purchases can destroy games (and perfect example is Dungeon Keeper) - I don't see any logical conclusion in your numbers.
Welcome in the 2014 - the Freedom of Speech is dead. I use Mozilla since its first days, when Phoenix (later Firefox) was only usable browser on Linux. I was always trying to support it, now it's just another evil company, just like Microsoft of Apple.
I just wonder how big the level of stupidity left wing must reach before it will be recognized by the majority of society. Or at least my majority of slashdot readers.
Let's go to the next level. Let's see how many females play first person shooter games. Maybe it's time to ban all these games because they are so sexist.
Or maybe someone should just call bullshit a bullshit.
All this stuff is a lie. You believe in "global warming" religion, even if you consider youself as an atheist.
Could you explain after so many years what was the reason to give Nobel Prize for Al Gore? BTW Could you also explain what was the reason to give Nobel Prize for Obama?

just a question.... is North & South game already banned because of this stupidity?

Google made mistake by forcing usage of Google+, nobody wants to be forced - and nobody wants to make all things public. It can be a lesson to others.
Discovery is crap for years. I remember it was OK long long ago.
Could you give some links to interesting material in 60FPS? I found just games.
"leaving unsolved the mystery of why global warming appears to have slowed in recent years"

Will this madness ever end?
why this is on front page?

WW2 was started by Germans, not by Nazis from space.

Long article about poor iPad sales and no single word about Android.
Welcome in the 2014 - the Freedom of Speech is dead.
I use Mozilla since its first days, when Phoenix (later Firefox) was only usable browser on Linux.
I was always trying to support it, now it's just another evil company, just like Microsoft of Apple.
What about Asus and others? If the deal is against Apple then it should be between everyone not just Samsung and Google.

Why people never read the article and instead comment title/description? This article is not about warez and pron but about network theory.
