  1. Importance on Anonymous Member Sentenced For Joining DDoS Attack For One Minute · · Score: 5, Insightful

    1 minute or 15, you were there, your guilty. Plain and simple. so for me thats not the worst part. It seems to be a fair part if you ask me

  2. Re:Don't on Ask Slashdot: How Do I Convince Management To Hire More IT Staff? · · Score: 1

    Network Admins are network admins and programmers are programmers. Don't ask a network admin to help that bitch at the front desk how to change resolution. he'll rip the monitor off that desk and beat her with it. Also, don't ask a programmer how to change a signature in your email...he'll rip that keyboard and shove it down where the sun don't shine.

    Help desk people are trained to deal with people issues and code 18's all the time. I'm sorry but the reality is netadmins and programmers don't have enough social skills for that and it's not in their task. Their awesome network admins and making sure the infrastructure works correctly and programmers are awesome for their custom made apps.

    but i admit that for a company with 150 people, having 4 programmers is a bit too much and might need some managements or cleanup here

    How Do I Convince Management To Hire More IT Staff?

    Could work but could get you fired as well but: crash 2 servers. Fix 1 server. Boss goes to see you to tell you when its going to be fixed. Tell him not know and it will take time. BUT..hire another 1 now and you'll have it pronto...

    There's your other staff

  4. Re:Has nothing to do with the USA on App Detects Neo-Nazis Using Their Music · · Score: 1

    Without hearing the music per say, i can't tell you if its wrong or not but... People tries to find their bubble (or a break from their reality) and for lots of people its in music. We're told to shut up when time comes, buckle up in cars...do this, do that, so many rules in society, obey the law here and there. The only way to let go of yourself is in music as theirs no boundaries or rules.

    So is it justified or is it paranoia since the early years got to them soo much with the last 2 lost war on their shoulders. i completely understand why they would put a complete stop but all I got to say is put too much restrictions on one group and that group will rebel

  6. Bitch Please on Is the Porsche Carrera GT Too Dangerous? · · Score: 2

    This is what comes to mind (comment subject) when CNN report that crap. CNN talks only about the car like that was the problem...seriously ? Anything in the hands of a human can become dangerous...even a damn spoon. Spoon "could" kill someone :). Seriously though, take a car, take a guy who lacked a moment of responsibility and you have a dangerous cocktail right there...same applies for everything and anything else. It's not too complex to grasp. Stop bashing on the cars...that wasn't the problem...the driver was

  7. To be taken seriously on Copyright Takedown Requests to Google Doubled In 2013 · · Score: 1

    This is something that must not be overlooked. This is becoming a plague on Youtube...especially on that platform and the people who are the victims most of the time are the people who put the video up on youtube.

    For example, the video Day One: Garry's Incident video on youtube (the one released by TotalBiscuit...just search for it)... it was available to some poeple and then because the company got too much bad press on it cause the game sucked way to bad and it seems like the game was in alpha stage...just too much problems and most reviews (including steam comments) told to not buy the game.

    The company got around and requested the video to be removed. The user had no choice but to agree to this non sense. In the end, (not me cause I already saw the video ahahah), the consumer don't know what the game could be liked... But not in this case since youtube wasn't the only source of info lol.

    What I want to say is simple...companies got too much power when it comes to this. The consumer or the other party or customer who has no ressources at all is the victim in this. Google seems to be bending way too easily and I hesitate to say this but I will, I feel like Google is feeding the trolls sometimes because they don't fight and automatically agree.

  8. Wait what ? on European Parliament Culls Public Wi-Fi Access After Email Hack · · Score: 1

    members of the Parliament are using the public network to check their mail ? That alone is a breach of security...split that. members of the Parliament should use a private secure network (vpn, ssl, etc etc)...not the same network as mister and misses on the street lol. Just for starters the wifi is hidden to the public and thats only a first on the big list of security we implemented here and the security should be high even if people don't like it...it's your system, not theirs so its the admin's job to provide security for this type of situation.

  10. Re:price on 62% of 16 To 24-Year-Olds Prefer Printed Books Over eBooks · · Score: 2

    Don't need any studies for that. Some people's eyes are getting hurt or tired after some time and others not... it depends on the person. You can do the test yourself, just play(or work) on a computer screen for 12 hours starting at 10am till 10pm and you'll see for yourself. If your eyes hurts or getting tired then your affected by this problem.

    One solution to this on the computer is to use the program called FL.UX which is free and it modifies your computer's display to adapt to the time of day, warm at night and like sunlight during the day.

    So reading a boook on a PC wont be a problem for me but using anything than that could be a problem as I know lots of people with this kind of problem. For me, i don't have any problems with that. i could stare at a screen for more than 12 hours straigh and my eyes wont be tired, stressed or anything like that. I recently had my eyes checked and they're in full heath as well

    Hire someone to look into it. Firms exists for this kind of thing. That would be a solution but I assume it's not cheap obviously since the firm as to take a look at all the details of your invention then search through a really huge database to look for similar technology that uses patents like yours or similar to yours...

  13. Re:Well, isn't this nice on Why Scott Adams Wished Death On His Dad · · Score: 2

    Its amazing how can pain and suffering can make you do or think when someone very close that you love is going through. I can understand is point of view and anger towards anyone (gov,doctors and anyone else) wont allow assisted suicide. To see your father that you supported all your life in pain all day and probably all night long can be very hard to see for his son.

    Can you imagine where a father, a supporter of a family, the pillar of a group, a leader once a man...reduced to almost nothing near the end of his life. Can you imagine your son taking care of you of small simple things as..."can you wash me in my bath tub son"... I'm sorry but for me, I can't imagine that since I do have my dignity and I don't want to lose that later in my life.

    I can easily imagine his anger as he see's his father losing his life very slowly and leaving him in a painful way. But it's almost ironic to see doctors who are suppose to cure and heal people that in this case... are supporting suffering of a patient. it's just odd to see assisted suicide left alone in it's corner, unattended and unsupervised

    The bright side of this is every major country have this problem so he's not alone at least. Hell, theres some articles on this subject almost every year involving these cases.

  14. Re:CPU embedded in GPU versus GPU embedded in CPU on A Co-processor No More, Intel's Xeon Phi Will Be Its Own CPU As Well · · Score: 1

    GPU is important enough at least at a basic level but when you speak about servers... do we need them. I mean, I know microsofts next servers will have the optional GUI implemented and they will "try" to get away from the GUI and will recommend to work without it. I question the need for the GPU

    You should know how much incercaration cost to society...I'm not in the US and I can tell you the US pays a crapload of money for their prison. A small investment like this seems to be fair if you ask me.

  19. its a practice done since our society was... on Imagining the Post-Antibiotic Future · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure how it goes in other countries but it should be the same especially from the youtube movie called earth but the way industrialized countries raise they're livestock is really alarming. For example, here in Québec (east of canada for those who don't know where exactly) pigs are in big warehouses where they're usually born and raised but because there's so much of them in 1 space because of today's needs, they give them antibiotic. Of course, they're system removes most of the antibiotic after time but theres a small percentage that they keep and when they get killed so they sell there meat for us to eat, we get those antibiotics because they can't be removed 100%

    So who's to blame here... if there is one to blame. I honestly believe society as a whole is to blame since they want meat. Companies gives them what they want because they want to make profit. On the other hand, people want meat as well so its an endless loop. If this continues at this rate.. Time for me to change my diet lmao

    I'm certainly no expert at this but how about start going simple. Planets that are far away (distance wise) farther than the earth are too cold, closer are too hot. Maybe its possible at one point in time the Planet Mars had a similar orbit than the earth either a complete similar orbit which was able to substain life or partial orbit so it would be just enough to substain life and/or water at one point and for some reason, its orbit changed so that way it got further away from the sun eventually we know mars as we know today... It's possible that I'm totally wrong as well lol

  24. Re:Good luck with that... on P2P Data Not Private, But It Could Be · · Score: 1

    unless it's different with ISP but a computer received that IP from the dhcp pool, so to the ISP's view, it belongs to the ISP and not the person since the ISP pays for the IP address and they "lend" that "service" to their customers. If the MPAA says anything different, then they need a cisco network course to be honest. What I just said is just simple logic and anyone with an ounce of knowledge in networks will probably say I'm at least right (or half right cause /. loves to argue lol).

  25. To be taken with a grain of salt on 25,000-Drive Study Gives Insight On How Long Hard Drives Actually Last · · Score: 2

    Backblaze has done their study in their datacenter. This means they did it in a controlled environment. I'm sorry but I don't have an AC where my computer is... the air is not filtered. my PC is in my basement (as some people put it in a room) where theres 30-40% humidity using normal crappy air i breath like we all do. Some of us (not me) smoke and live in places with lots of humidity or dry air as well. Is this taken into account...nope.

    Well this study is to be taken with a grain of salt as lots of variables are missing in their study but it is a good start to know what hard drives last longer under perfect condition
