  1. Re:I wonder if they're going to use this as "proof on Obama Invites Texas Teen To White House After "Bomb" Clock Incident At School · · Score: 1

    It's a clock, not a bomb. I thought we already established that.

  2. I wonder if they're going to use this as "proof" t on Obama Invites Texas Teen To White House After "Bomb" Clock Incident At School · · Score: 1, Troll

    I wonder if they're going to use this as "proof" that Obama "supports Muslim terrorists"

  3. Re:Grinch is not a flaw - has no CVE!!! on Grinch Vulnerability Could Put a Hole In Your Linux Stocking · · Score: 1

    One of those rare events where the bug really is a feature.

  4. I think Cataclysm got inspration from this on NetHack: Still One of the Greatest Games Ever Written · · Score: 1

    I think Cataclysm got inspration from this

  5. This is a good thing people on Microsoft Introduces .NET Core · · Score: 1

    I still don't trust Microsoft 100% due to their past, but I think they do want to do more in open source, so I'm cautiously optimistic about the new Microsoft. If IBM can change, so can Microsoft. And I'm hoping they actually did change, but I'm still a bit cautious with them.

  6. Re:I SAID on Supreme Court To Decide Whether Rap Lyric Threats Are Free Speech · · Score: 1

    And this is why just 5 mod points aren't going to cut it.

  7. It's not robot overlords I'm worried about on Alva Noe: Don't Worry About the Singularity, We Can't Even Copy an Amoeba · · Score: 1

    What I'm worried about is letting a computer algorithm decide wether it should kill someone or not.

  8. Although a lot of problems with Cataclyst will probably be solved as a result of this

  9. Now if Catalyst gets good enough it might be an option to start using now.

  10. Re: battle with Android and iOS first! on Ubuntu Touch For Phones Hits RTM, First Phones Coming This Year · · Score: 1

    Agreed. I'd upvote this if I had any modpoints. But since I don't, commenting is the best I could do.

  11. Re:Confused. on First Shellshock Botnet Attacking Akamai, US DoD Networks · · Score: 1

    You're probably getting downvoted for calling him a twat, not for correcting him.

  12. It fixed Comcast's rep when they renamed their services to Xfinity. Oh wait, no it didn't.

  13. Ridiculous on Washington Redskins Stripped of Trademarks · · Score: 2

    If the name Redskins was "disparaging". They wouldn't be naming their team after them

  14. Re:Raise the Price on Fiat Chrysler CEO: Please Don't Buy Our Electric Car · · Score: 1

    Doubt it. I'm a progressive and I find this regulation stupid.

  15. I'm surprised no one commented about this yet. on The Struggle To Ban Killer Robots · · Score: 1

    If the "killer robots" tried to take over the world today they would fail quickly, XKCD seems to have explained why already.

  16. Personalzed? on Parents' Privacy Concerns Kill 'Personalized Learning' Initiative · · Score: 1

    If they "personalize" learning the same way Facebook "personalizes" ads. Then I don't blame them for not wanting it.

  17. Re:It's not the education on Our Education System Is Failing IT · · Score: 1

    I've been to college. I know first hand it's the education.

  18. Trustworthy? on Ex-Microsoft Employee Arrested For Leaking Windows 8 · · Score: 1

    I'm guessing the word "Trustworthy" in "Microsoft’s Trustworthy Computing Investigations" is a homonym.

  19. If that's the case.. on Legal Motion: Hyperlinks Are Protected By the First Amendment · · Score: 1

    "Hyperlinks Are Protected By the First Amendment" If that's the case, then everything on thepiratebay.org is perfectly legal. Torrents and magnetlinks are esentially hyperlinks for the BitTorrent protocal.

  20. Re:Bullshit! on Google Won't Enable Chrome Video Acceleration Because of Linux GPU Bugs · · Score: 2

    Agreed, I've been running Chrome with graphics acceleration enabled for a long time and I never ran into any issues.

  21. Re:Tell me again... on U.S. Students/Grads Carrying Over $1 Trillion In Debt · · Score: 1

    It's not. I've been to San Jacinto college, and their programming classes sucked. Advanced C++ my ass.

  22. Re:hope all it does is verifies... on DARPA Looks To End the Scourge of Counterfeit Computer Gear · · Score: 1

    The Linux kernel could use that GPLv3 license right about now.

  23. hope all it does is verifies... on DARPA Looks To End the Scourge of Counterfeit Computer Gear · · Score: 1

    ...instead of stopping the system if it doesn't verify (kill switch) or sending the results back to headquaters (spying), otherwise it's DRM. As long as the user has full control on what this thing does such as turning it off or changing what server it sends the info to or what it registers as counterfeit and what doesn't then it could be a good thing. But if this is used to lock the user out of his own hardware or prevent him from changing or modifying it then this is going to be a huge problem.

  24. I prefer the command line and a text editor on Does Relying On an IDE Make You a Bad Programmer? · · Score: 1

    It's actually easier and quicker for me to use than an IDE. I usually use Bash as my shell and Kate as my text editor (Kate is similar to Notepad++ in functionality which is what I used before my switch to GNU/Linux). when I compile projects I either use a simple Makefile or CMake depending on the size of the project. I've done OS detection and resolution with Makefiles before.

  25. Knockoff? on 'CandySwipe' Crushed: When Game Development Turns Nasty · · Score: 1

    Yes the guys who made CandySwipe saw Candy Crush Saga, so they hopped in their time machine and went back to 2010 to create the Candy Crush Saga knockoff. :rollseyes:
