    lazer.

  2. The killer feature would be on What's Next For Smartphone Innovation · · Score: 5, Interesting

    reasonable battery life. I stick with my dumbphone until that happens.

  3. Re:Well the ultimate value of Bitcoin is on BitCoin Value Collapses, Possibly Due To DDoS · · Score: 4, Funny

    We really need a corollary for Godwin's Law adapted specifically to Bitcoin discussions: as soon as you say, "Modpoints don't have any intrinsic value!", you lose.

  4. Re:Slashdot fraud/abuse warning... apk on A German Parking Garage Parks Your Car For You · · Score: 2

    You might be able to fix this with a HOSTS file.

  5. Re:Hey gamers! on How Game Streaming Went From Shaky Webcams To the PS4 · · Score: 1

    Wow, i've rarely seen something this stupid.

  6. Re:Frankly ... on Living Cells Turned Into Computers · · Score: 2

    I'd be even more excited if there was a laser involved somewhere.

  7. Re:Bounties for more than security bugs on Mega Vulnerability Reward Program Starts Payouts: 7 Bugs Fixed In First Week · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Frankly security related bugs /are/ the most important ones, because they provide attack vectors to the rest of the system. Missing functionality is just meh, but nothing to worry about.

  10. Re:Mint a good alternative for traditionalists on Fedora 18 Installer: Counterintuitive and Confusing? · · Score: 1

    Blah bleh. Not maintaining anything is also a kind of maintenance, i admit.
    Note i didn't even say it was difficult, it's just vastly time consuming. You can't possible maintain a real-world LFS as your everyday distro and stay up to date and have a job, or family, or whatever.

  11. Re:Cool hack on Hacker Bypasses Windows 7/8 Address Space Layout Randomization · · Score: 2

    Be sure to tell me when you found that infinite-memory patch.

  12. Re:TLDR on Hacker Bypasses Windows 7/8 Address Space Layout Randomization · · Score: 1, Troll

    Especially since MS has gone to a lot of trouble to hire an small army of some the best brains in, maths, security, computer science and a number of other scientific disciplines and yet even these brainy overachievers overlooked this simple trick.

    They've also hired such guys to come up with Windows 8 in the first place. And Windows 7. And Windows Vista. And... you get the idea.

  13. Re:64-bit computers DO NOT solve this problem on You've Got 25 Years Until UNIX Time Overflows · · Score: 1

    The real problem is embedded, i dare say.

  14. Re:Mint a good alternative for traditionalists on Fedora 18 Installer: Counterintuitive and Confusing? · · Score: 4, Interesting

    If you ever went down the LFS road, you'd know what you end up with is an unmaintainable system. Nice try, though.

  15. Re:All your IP is belong to us? on Microsoft's Future of the Living Room Starring SuperTuxKart · · Score: 0

    Great. Now think about why you /don't/ have mod points.

    In unrelated news, fyngyrz announces an ultracap that has battery-equivalant energy, cost and cubic space consumption.

  23. Re:hehe on "Badass" Bug Infects and Kills Borderlands 2 Characters · · Score: 1

    What you say perhaps applies to consoles back in the time they were actually made of different components than standard desktop PCs. Now you've got the same, just arbitrary stripped down in terms of possibilities of doing anything else with it.

  24. Re:Ah yes... Non-featured features... on "Badass" Bug Infects and Kills Borderlands 2 Characters · · Score: 1

    permadeath used to be a feature, back when 'gamer' wasn't synonymous with 'pussy'

    Oh snap, i gotta return to the combat zone ASAP, the screen went all black and shit! See ya later /.

  25. Re:Another one? on Standard For Electric Car Charging Announced · · Score: 1

    Well, once you left your ivory tower you will realize there often is a waste cost trade-off. If i have to choose between a couple mW loss of power vs a couple $ on more sophisticated circuitry, guess what wins?
