  3. The dual boot is stupid for a consumer device. on Google Blocking Asus's Android-Windows "Duet"? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Only one OS will be used, propably based on which OS is currently booted. People are to lazy to reboot to change OS thats just two minutes longer to get on Facebook.

  4. Re:why carry crude to in tanks on moving vehicles? on Exploding Oil Tank Cars: Why Trains Go Boom · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Any citation that Global warming has caused an increase in hurricanes? Canada should refine their own oil instead of selling oil for half price to you dickheads in the States then we pay way more than the States for our fuel. Buy your oil from Venezuela and Nigeria both those oils have a higher CO2 emissions than Canadian oil and cost twice the price. But you don't care about the environment or CO2 emissions or you would choose the oil that has the least cost to the environment and your pocketbook. Your more concerned with bashing Canadian oil because it's the cool thing to do if you hang out in loony left circles than anything having to do with pollution or CO2 emissions.

  5. Re:Having used both on Ford Dumping Windows For QNX In New Vehicles · · Score: 1

    I own 2 Fords and several in the past and evertime I smell smoke its like oh shit. Funny thing is I had 2 Dodges catch on fire while I was driving them.

  6. welders paint pen on Slashdot Asks: Do You Label Your Tech Gear, and If So, How? · · Score: 1

    You need xylene to wash that shit off.

  7. A phone is like a wallet nowadays. on US Carriers Said To Have Rejected Kill Switch Technology Last Year · · Score: 1

    Do you lose your wallet all the time or do you know where it is at all times? Maybe we need a kill switch just in case someone steals your wallet, maybe a die pack or something that goes boom then we could hook it up to the phone so we have a way to send the kill signal. Maybe just don't walk around with your fancy phone in your hand putting down constantly with earphones sticking out of your head on the subway late at night.

  8. Re:Nice to have the choice on Ubuntu 14.04 Brings Back Menus In Application Windows · · Score: 1

    Why not just use Debian?

  9. Tried it on a Nexus 7 the interface was nice to look at but it was way to unstable to use. I doubt Canonical is focusing on google's hardware when they could push their own hardware.

  10. Re:Fuck you, Shuttleworth! on Two Ubuntu Phones Coming In 2014, Aiming For Top 50 iOS/Android Apps · · Score: 1

    Cyanogen does not ship with Goggle apps for licensing reasons. You have to download Gapps as a separate zip and install, all the Google apps are included. You may be able to delete them after? But if you want one Google app you must install them all. And face it Android sucks without the play store.

  11. The new moble tracking system. on New 'pCell' Technology Could Bring Next Generation Speeds To 4G Networks · · Score: 1

    For when the GPS is turned off. Or maybe pCELL combined with GPS means that google maps won't send me the wrong direction down a deadend road again.

  12. Re:Let it be on Darker Arctic Boosting Global Warming · · Score: 2

    Funny how people like you never take one for the planet and start depopulating yourselves.

  13. Re:nope on Darker Arctic Boosting Global Warming · · Score: 1

    You mean like how NASA changed historic climate data this year? Doesn't really matter what scientists are observing if they change the facts.

  14. Re: Wrong question on Safeway Suspends Worker For Sci-Fi Parody of His Firing · · Score: 1

    Because the manager works harder and is more responsible because he makes more money. Lower the managers wage and he will do less and everything falls apart. I was a foreman for a smaller construction company before I started my own business. I would have quit if I wasn't making way more than the others. Why you ask. Because I could never miss a day, I worked longer hours (up to usually 60-80 a month) if any of my subordinates screwed up I was responsible and got yelled at.

    If climate change is a fact how come all predictions have been wrong? Why does the IPCC not explain why they lied and stop this bullshit. They say trust us we will get it right one day in the meantime give us your money. There is no climate change just a bunch of hypocritical liars getting rich off stupid people like you.

    I'm gonna put a cap in yo ass nigger. How is that affection? Why can a black have different rules in society than a white? That is the definition of racism, you are an idiot. If nigger is good enough for the blacks it is good enough for me.

  18. Re: Burnouts are illegal. on New Ford Mustang May Have Electronic "Burnout" Button · · Score: 1

    Many of the big hills with intersections at the top in my area have three stop signs. Uphill traffic doesn't have to stop. The reason is the grain trucks can't get going again when they come to a stop pointing uphill.

  19. Re:When all you have is a hammer ... on Tremors Mean Antarctic Volcanism May Be Heating Up · · Score: 1

    And the scientists said the earth was flat at one time and persecuted the deniers of flat earth. Science has been wrong before. The planet of cooling according to the data (not the made up computer models) Antarctic ice is at an all time record and the arctic ice started freezing three weeks earlier than usually. Where is th "sorry I was wrong" from all the alleged scientists that predicted and ice free arctic? When science says "we believe/or we think" science has it head up it's ass and is relying on faith. Only religions rely on faith.

  20. This way they know who to probe. This will save us billions of dollars and save millions of sphincters from being unnecessarily stretched.

  21. nowadays on New York's Financial Regulator Subpoenas Bitcoin Companies · · Score: -1

    Federal judge just means douche bag working for special interest groups or a government worried they haven't squeezed every last cent out of taxpayers yet.

    I found the opposite everyone from relatives to babysitters liked using Linux (Debian/Gnome3 or Bodhi or Magia) and asked about me installing it on their computer. So no not just dorks like Linux, the kids with the fancy $600 phones and the grandparents like is. Although my brother-in-law phoned me last week and asked if I could help him install and configure Slackware over the phone I told him no, then told him to try Mint.

  23. Re:Outbreak, not "plague"; dont be sensationalist. on Fifteen Years After Autism Panic, a Plague of Measles Erupts · · Score: 1

    I think part of the problem is lots of people live in areas where the doctors are third world hacks that use webMD on their iPhones to diagnose patients. It's hard to trust incompetence. My kid broke his arm and after four trips to the local hospital latter I finally had to take him to an emergency room in a city two hours away after his arm swollen up like crazy and he was crying constantly. Local doctors said he sprained his elbow.

    When was the last fire in Colorado that required a drone to map it. And what benefit did the alleged mapping have? Oh right they are looking for grow ops with the infrared camera not fighting forest fires.
