  1. You mean they will dust off Willis again?

  2. Re:There is a difference. on Top Five Theaters Won't Show "The Interview" Sony Cancels Release · · Score: 1

    You have even better odds than that, since they will probably show the movie more than once at every theater.

    Is it just me, or does the response seem to be a bit disproportionate? I wouldn't be surprised if the group got some other juicy tidbits from their hack and that is the real reason they shut down the release. Or maybe it is a PR stunt.

  3. Re:Real-time market approach on Denmark Faces a Tricky Transition To 100 Percent Renewable Energy · · Score: 1

    But that clash with our current "real-time economics"... and we can't have the old one back, where the rich had to wait hours or even days to get their cash... why don't anyone think about the rich?

  4. Re:Mars one? on First Man To Walk In Space Reveals How Mission Nearly Ended In Disaster · · Score: 2

    Why would anyone want to see the landing if there are no bears and wolves? Landing without dangerrous animals is soooo 1969.

  5. Prediction of the future?

  6. Re:Apple's QA vs. Android's QA on Apple Yanks iOS 8 Update · · Score: 0

    I suspect their company culture is fucked up, atleast on the engineering side. Not only have they done this kind of failure before (i.e antenna problems), they also seem to have a real problem making new innovations. Most of their new innovations comes from companies they bought (i.e siri), not from the inside.

  7. Re:An end to XBox? on Microsoft To Buy Minecraft Maker Mojang For $2.5 Billion · · Score: 1

    Xbox has never sold well in japan. If anything, the real problem for the game division is the lower than projected sales in the other territories.

  8. Capitalist 'murica on Net Neutrality Is 'Marxist,' According To a Koch-Backed Astroturf Group · · Score: 1

    In capitalist America, network owns YOU!

  9. Re:Here's an idea! on Nintendo Posts Yet Another Loss, Despite Mario Kart 8 · · Score: 1

    The same is true for the ps2. And will probably be the same for ps4. The console that sells the most, attracts the most shovelware.

  10. Re: Anti-piracy on Free Copy of the Sims 2 Contains SecuROM · · Score: 2

    I often download car analogies from /.

  11. Re:It's working so well in Venezuela on Foxconn Replacing Workers With Robots · · Score: 1

    Is it really under control? There is a rising trend in youth unemployment in the west.

  12. Re:Controller Supporrt? on Microsoft Doesn't Have Plans For a Dedicated Handheld Gaming Device · · Score: 1

    I think they mean dedicated buttons and sticks on a tablet or phone.

  13. Re:Shuffles on iPad Fever Is Officially Cooling · · Score: 1

    Don't think phones will go down in size anytime soon. But you could always buy a bluetooth headset, but you will still need your phone.

  14. Re:...and the high end? on Nokia Turns To Android To Regain Share In Emerging Markets · · Score: 1

    If (and that is a big if) they release android phones, they will not be high-end, since that would compete with windows phone and I doubt microsoft wants that.

  15. Re:It'll be fun to watch. on OneDrive Is Microsoft's Rebranded Name For SkyDrive · · Score: 1

    ThreepointelevenDriveforworkgroups will be sooo much better than ThreepointoneDrive.

  16. Re: 4.0? on Open Source AMD Driver Now Supports OpenGL 3.3 — and It's Getting Faster · · Score: 3, Informative

    Because 3.3 is a subset of 4?

  17. Re:499 US dollars on Valve's Steam Machines Are More About Safeguarding PCs Than Killing Consoles · · Score: 5, Insightful

    And where is the free multiplayer? And the steam sales? And backwards compatibility? A steam machine will be cheaper in the long run. No questions about it.

  18. Re: No Faith on Development To Begin Soon On New Star Control Game · · Score: 1

    You should try out fallen enchantress: legendary heroes. It is quite good and it is free for those of us that bought elemental.

  19. Re: iPad on Ask Slashdot: Easy Wi-Fi-Enabled Tablet For My Dad? · · Score: 2

    Every tablet made by asus?

    My last 2 jobs had about 10 reqs each i didn't have. it is all about hr don't see the difference between nice to have skills and requirements.

  23. Re:Apple made the same mistake on Smartphone Sales: Apple Squeezed, Blackberry Squashed, Android 81.3% · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I wouldn't be surprised if the teenager has more "phone needs" than the parent.

  24. Re:Are *ALL* Nokia phones *smartphones* ?? on Smartphone Sales: Apple Squeezed, Blackberry Squashed, Android 81.3% · · Score: 4, Informative

    The stats are only for smartphones, so they are correct.

  25. Re:Stuff you should learn on What Are the Genuinely Useful Ideas In Programming? · · Score: 1

    It could be changed to "Learn the underlying structure". For example if you program in .net, how does .net execute your code?

    Also, learn the overlying structure. Who will use my code, is it another programmer, a customer or another program? How will they use it? How can I simplify their process?
