  1. Re:Oh yes, software on America's Future Is In Software, Not Hardware · · Score: 1

    The funny thing is that a replicator, universal 3D printer, or anything like that could mean the end of manufacturing jobs. Since most people aren't capable of being engineers we're going to have to decide what % of the population is going to be permanently unemployed.

    E=MC^2 makes a "matter compiler" a pretty hefty energy investment.

    Try narrowing the angular confinement beam.

  4. Re:What about kiddie games? on Iwata Confirms Nintendo Network, New Wii U Controller Functions · · Score: 1

    Keep telling yourself that. 99.99% of our lives will be nothing but a birth, marriage, and death certificate in 200 years. Some historian will probably use those to do some revisionism on this period.

    Nope, because Nintendo is the suck. Here come the modpoints.

    So it isn't just American stupidity then folks. Quit claiming your countries are so much more just and infallible.

    It wont break ubuntu anymore than it already is don't worry.

  9. Re:Please no on Google Merges Google+ Into Search · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Slowly they will make those results more and more dependent on Google+. Resistance is futile.

  10. Huh on IBM Snags Patent On Half-Day Off of Work Notifications · · Score: 5, Funny

    Then I demand a patent on going to work.

    Could be worse, could be Apple.

  12. Re:That's a ton of bandwidth on Almost 1 In 3 US Warplanes Is a Drone · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Or it isn't just video, but a stream from a complete sensor package. Not to mention the cameras they have deliver much higher resolution video than the HD streamed on Netflix (or at least I'd hope).

  13. Oracle on Oracle, Cloudera Team Up On Hadoop Appliance · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Once you start along the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny.

  14. Re:Yes! on Are Programmers Ruining the Design of eBooks? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You're kidding right? This guy just criticized everyone and then pushed ribbon as a case of excellent design. He went so far as to say that everything's faster with a GUI, and we all know that isn't true.

    The first post should just be automatically deleted.

    Except in Apples: There's no free as in freedom there.

  17. Re:If MS wanted to really kill IE6... on IE6 Almost Dead In the US · · Score: 1

    they should have had a way to automatically upgrade it the moment they detected any of their websites being visited by IE6

    That may be the most secure way of upgrading a product I've ever encountered.

  18. DVR Patent Wars on Tivo Gets $215 Million Patent Settlement From AT&T · · Score: 2, Informative

    Doesn't matter since there won't be traditional TV in 10 years.

    Why can't you? If I ran a web service I'd gladly inform people their browser is too old to be supported.

  20. Re:How does SOPA work exactly? on GoDaddy Backs SOPA · · Score: 1

    Most likely if you used this against them they'd get you for filing a false takedown notice. But if they take something of yours down that wasn't infringing they won't even get a slap on the wrist.

    Watch the superbowl more often. Be prepared to facepalm.

  22. Re:Monetizing the Copyright Screening on GoDaddy Backs SOPA · · Score: 1

    Considering most people (not slashdotters, normal people) don't even know what SOPA is, I expect nothing to change.
