  1. Re:To much selling me shit. on Apple Declutters, Speeds Up iTunes With Major Upgrade · · Score: 0

    actually, the GP is correct - itunes purchases are integrated throughout the program.
     
    in album view, click an album to pull down the page to show the album tracks. in the top corner of the pull down box there's a "in the store" button that allows you to buy related tracks. By every song there's a new ">" icon which is the left-click of 2012. click it, and there's an option "show in itunes store".
     
    there's definitely a lot of integration but imho it's not obtrusive so I dont think it's trying to "sell shit".

  2. hey editors on FAA To Reevaluate Inflight Electronic Device Use · · Score: 0

    the phrase 'The use of any portable electronic equipment while the aircraft is taxiing, during takeoff and climb, or during approach and landing,' is as ubiquitous

    I've never heard that phrase before. usually they say somethigna bout the devices not being allowed, tho.

    if the board had any balls/lady-balls they would all resign en masse, I would bring in bill campbell for one, and definitely tim cook.

    if she had time, then she could have led a big turnaround. she just didnt have time to articulate her vision.similar for her star-crossed run for senate.

  5. Re:fire the board. on PC Makers In Desperate Need of a Reboot · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    why? because slashdot constantly silences dissenting voices by modding them down into oblivion. if you don't like what somebody says, then just mark them troll until all their posts have -1! that way nobody needs to see them. I'm sorry, but I refuse to bow to the gods of google, android, bitcoin, assange, and anonymous. i'm not going to let others silence me, nor am I going to soften my tone to appease the moderators.

    If I have to keep iterating accounts to keep my voice, then so be it!

  6. fire the board. on PC Makers In Desperate Need of a Reboot · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Remember when Carli Fiorina was in charge at HP? She seemed to have a good vision, but was pushed out in boardroom drama. Then the whole board spying thing, then mark hurd and the lady friend.

    I would fire the whole board and start fresh there. Get some good leadership at the top! start in WebOS. Even if it's not perfect, HP needs two sticks to rub together.

  7. Re:This story comes up every now and then.. on Tata Intends To Sell Air-Powered Car In India · · Score: 0

    No, the range is the problem. I can ride farther on my bike than this car could drive. Also, if you ban everything but ZEVs (absurd), then people will prefer e-bikes, evs, etc.

    also, I wouldn't count the CAVs as zero emissions, becasue the air compressors will be very dirty if they run on diesel, and they will be located in the city at refill points.

    in short, compressed air is a shitty energy carrier, a full "gas" tank holds less than a half gallon of fuel equivalent, and the range is less than 50km in city driving. for the money they want to charge, they better sell a real car.

  9. Re:This story comes up every now and then.. on Tata Intends To Sell Air-Powered Car In India · · Score: 0

    the problem is the technology doesn't work, and the people selling it are shysters. a related problem is there is not one single drivable prototype.

    Here's the problem:
    * compressed air is a horrible energy carrier, with energy density less than lead acid batteries. the entire storage tank holds less than a gallon of gasoline's worth.
    * they lie about the range, but in realistic driving scenarios it's less than 50km.

    who wants a car like that, especially for $10k? why not just get a real car?

    judges dont invalidate jury verdicts. the jury listened for threew eeks and made a judgment. thats what juries do. if apple or samsung didn't want to face the judgment of Joe Juror, they should have put on their big boy pants and struck a deal.

    Yeah but you have to prioritize. One thing you could do is use the mobile version of websites to minimize the downloads.

    yeah but instead of spending &700 on your gaming rig you could have tossed in an extra $500 and gotten a macbook... so maybe you should hold off on claims about value.

  19. Re:Cap on The Rebirth of PC Gaming? Bring On the Modders! · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    whatevs mofo. i'm an onlive fanboi and i advocate it wherever i go. it's a great service and you get really inexpensive access to AAA titles. it also works on the oldest crappiest pc or mac, with 100% quality. tell that to the steam people. also, i dont have a huge ugly box in my living room that says "nerd1"

  20. Re:Cap on The Rebirth of PC Gaming? Bring On the Modders! · · Score: 1

    onlive burns 2.5gb/hr, so your cap would get you 50 hours. If you play video games for more than a full work-week every month, that's another issue!

  21. Re:Cap on The Rebirth of PC Gaming? Bring On the Modders! · · Score: -1, Troll

    i'm sorry that you have such a junky ISP that you have download caps. frowny face :(

    also, i have limited gaming time, so it makes no difference if there is a limited or infinite selection of games. similarly, i do just fine with basic cable becuase I don't have time or inclination to watch ESPN 8 (the ocho) or home shopping network 3 that are on the expanded cable.

    onlive definitely hits the right note here, for people who want to ocassionaly play AAA games without all the expense and hassle. fixes the piracy and drm issues too.

    pc games will never get back where they used to be. Why spend $2k on a pc rig, in order to play a game that I can play for free on onlive?

    to be fair, so many nintendo-designed games are incredibly awesome, and it was cool to dedicate an entire issue of nintendo power to them. remember the zelda cartridges came in gold? that was cool too.
