  1. Wait till they come up with the OS 10.... on Black Sheep Blackberry Blackballed By Business · · Score: 1

    I had a glimpse of what will be in store for users with Blackberry 10 at a seminar held in our school by RIM and I daresay it does have the potential to be in the league of Androids and iPhones.

  2. A few tips.... on Ask Slashdot: How Can I Protect My Android Devices From Hackers? · · Score: 5, Informative

    1. Put bluetooth in invisible mode unless you require somebody to find it. 2. Don't put the devices you add on auto send/receive. 3. Try putting an antivirus with a firewall. There are quite a few on the market. 4. Ask the network admin (of the WiFi at your home) to disallow listing of devices on the network. I suppose that should get you started.

  3. No...... on Seattle Police Want More Drones, Even While Two Sit Unused · · Score: 1

    .......we have superman to look over the streets!

  4. Rough winds for record companies on Dotcom's New Site "Megabox" Almost Ready · · Score: 1

    .....and they ain't gonna be happy about it!!!!

  5. There is a much better way on Can Google Base Ads On E-mails Sent To Gmail Accounts? · · Score: 1

    Just put big ugly banners all around the site.

  6. Absolutely ridiculous on Microsoft Patents 1826 Choropleth Map Technique · · Score: 1

    This is like patenting the layout of a chess board. Absolutely ridiculous!

  7. How to make the desktop PC extinct on Will the Desktop PC Live Forever? · · Score: 1

    If you ask me, its pretty much easy to make the Desktop PC extinct. 1. Decrease the cost of hardware in mobile devices especially laptops. 2. Decrease the cost of hardware in mobile devices especially laptops. 3. Decrease the cost of hardware in mobile devices especially laptops.

  8. Not interested..... on Microsoft Reportedly Launching Its Own Windows Phone Smartphone · · Score: 1

    Get Skype on a Windows mobile and I will consider.....

  9. Thanks for creating a legend on CmdrTaco Looks Back on Fifteen Years of Slashdot · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Thanks for creating slashdot, a place where I feel the most comfortable to read nerd news. Its clean, simple and is definitely by a team who understands the concept of a technology blog. Its really sad to leave something one has created and nurtured for so many years but I suppose that's the fact of quite a few products in the market now.

  10. Does it really matter on EU Says Apple's Warranty Advertisements Are Unacceptable · · Score: 4, Funny

    Apple is going to release a slightly bigger version of the iPhone in 6 months anyway and you are going to throw your old phone out the window. So does it really matter anyways?

  11. Re:Speed is not as relevant as it once was on The Fastest ISPs In the US · · Score: 1

    TWC has no caps in my area but the speeds do get a bit pathetic at times.....

  12. Re:From What I've seen... on The Fastest ISPs In the US · · Score: 2

    Mine deducts the amount from my card the fastest.....

  13. VOIP should also be made legal in India on Indian Minister Says Telecom Companies Should Only Charge For Data · · Score: 1

    I think VOIP services should also be made legal in India. Consider if we had something like Google Voice there. The operators can earn from data and in the meantime calls would be free as well.

  14. Re:subsidize phone calls on Indian Minister Says Telecom Companies Should Only Charge For Data · · Score: 1

    Unlike charging a huge amount by the minute and virtually no "unlimited" packs, the government can shift to unlimited packs and charges on mobile data like we have here in the US.

  15. Look Maa..... on The Whirlydoodle Project Makes Fun, Spinning Things (Video) · · Score: 1

    Look Maa, a whirly circle of light!

  16. Should have asked Siri on The Text Message Typo That Landed a Man In Jail · · Score: 1

    He should have got an iPhone and asked Siri to do the dirty work. No convictions there!

  17. Huge setback on Google Docs Ditching Old Microsoft Export Formats On Oct. 1 · · Score: 1

    That's a huge setback. Like it or not most offices use Microsoft Office and if I had to save that all important excel sheet on the cloud because I'd like to edit it on the go, it would be totally useless if I can't export it to a MS Office suitable format.

  18. Nice find but.... on MIT Researchers Show Dash Font Choice Affects Distraction · · Score: 1

    That's an interesting find but in my personal opinion when it comes to driving I think the more voice based it goes, the better it is. Looking at dials and screens is always distracting and more often than not can prove fatal.

  19. Happened to me on Ask Slashdot: Explaining Version Control To Non-Technical People? · · Score: 1

    It happened to me once and all I had to tell to convince the client was a version control system would keep track of all changes so if anybody messes up, we won't lose anything saving tons of time and money :).
