  1. *Please post a follow up in 2 months and let us know if you survived the fire.* How many people haven't survived Apple Iphone fires?

  2. The spacecraft even took a picture of itself at an altitude of 13 miles with the moon in the background.

    Has anyone ever taught them you *NEVER* take your eyes off the moon while landing?!?

  3. Should have stuck with Gnome 2. on Why Aren't People Abandoning Windows For Linux? (slashgear.com) · · Score: 0

    Gnome 3 and the mindset behind it has done more to turn people off than anything Windows could have ever done. Hell, Gnome 3 managed to turn Gnome 2 users off on it. Just how hard is it turn your own userbase against you in the fashion the Gnome 3 developers have done?

  4. Re: Are you kidding me? on 2.7 Million Americans Still Get Netflix DVDs in the Mail (cnn.com) · · Score: 0

    I never bothered to get Blu-Ray -- the image quality difference means less to me than a new set of tires for the race track. :-) Translation: I'm fucking blind No, there really isn't that great of a difference. And pretty soon all 4K will be is Google TV Ad Space!!!!!

  5. Re:It's all about the selection! on 2.7 Million Americans Still Get Netflix DVDs in the Mail (cnn.com) · · Score: 0

    For a 20-40 year old movie, you could buy a used copy for under $5. You will probably come out ahead.

    Hell, you catch find some damned good Chinese and Korean brand-new fantasy martial arts blu-rays and DVD's along with others at Dollar Tree for $1 and at Big Lots for $3-$5 for older DVD's

    Who cares? Netflix sucks anyway unless you like badly-dubbed anime and movies.

    Are we supposed to support "Net Neutrality" so this kind of GARGAGE can be forstered off on us? Hell no. Let Comcast and the rest charge the hell out of the people who want this bullshit.

  8. And in other news, Intergalactic Interpol agents have arrested the Hayabusa research team for the murder of asteroid Ryugu .

    Get a clue asshat. Where in the inner city are you going to find anywhere to grow the produce for a viable produce stand? You're talking about some of the most polluted and tainted soils anywhere in these areas. Of course slashdot trash like you wouldn't know anything about this since you don't know actually anything about inner city life.......

    Given that you can buy Dual-Sim unlocked phones with 2 gigs of ram and 16 gigs of storage off ebay for $50-100 US dollars,I would say you and those like you are pretty much clueless about the cell phone market in general.

    They deserve what they get. It's 2019. Hardware acceleration, CPU instructions to separate data vs instructions, and more than 4 gigs of RAM are outside the realm of XP. That's just a few examples. Chrome too is not updated anymore. Go use Linux if you want something modern on your ancient stuff but keep in mind people are under no obligation to support you. 90% of everyone else has moved on.

    Yo, *DUMBSHIT* It's not the people using the "ancient stuff" that have issues with people using these old browers. It's the sheepfucking moronic gamers which are made up of losers like like you who are having the problem here. Personally I couldn't care less about the fucking stupid issue.

  12. Another question is NASA and the Air force going to charge SpaceX for monitoring this space junk?

    Why bother? New OS nowdays are basically GUI-based Bloated Crap. Windows 10 and Gnome3 for some reason especially comes to mind here.

    It is very easy to see what browser is being used. If its not current, only load up a page that says update your browser, here are some options. If the big players did this, google, microsoft, facebook, youtube etc, they would kill the older browsers within a week. Flag as Inappropriate

    Yo! Gaming Moron! Problem is that the browsers you are talking about *WON'T RUN* on those older machines! And people say Gaming doesn't lead to BRAIN ROT.....

    Damn right. There are tons of Winxp computers out there that work perfectly fine and aren't going to get scrapped because a bunch of stupid-assed gamers like you say they should be. Blame the losers at Mozilla and other places for this problem. Any moron can see that if there's no browers for these machines,people are going to use what's on them Duh.

    Nobody asked for the utter garbage called GNOME3 either (other than losers like yourself) and look what resulted from that.

    Uber is your typical internet outfit hyped and praised by slimeballs like yourself and others. Wait till they are held libable for a crash that that gets a number of bystanders killed and see how fast this company vanishes.

    Tmobile's $3 month deal is basically a scam where you're pretty much nicked and dimed to death for everything. Sounds good on paper but not in reality.

    This *IS* already the case. Try applying for a job lately? If you *DON'T* have a Cellphone or Email Adress, you're pretty much screwed, and I'm talking about Target,Kmart,Walmart and other places. If you're not on Facebook,or don't have a twitter account, or other such garbage, they look at you funny as well.
