  7. Re:Your biggest screw up on "We Screwed Up," Says Reddit CEO In Formal Apology · · Score: 3, Funny

    With so many uneducated people running around the internet, who CAN you trust?

    In the words of Fox Mulder: Trust No One.

  8. Re:In other news on Software Devs Leaving Greece For Good, Finance Minister Resigns · · Score: 1

    Tell me about it! My fractions of Bitcoins are up nearly 25 cents!

  9. Re:FUND IT on Japanese and US Piloted Robots To Brawl For National Pride · · Score: 1

    That just leaves hydraulic jaws or pneumatic/combustion rams, but I can't see any of this being used due to the danger to the pilot.

  10. Giant robots? on Japanese and US Piloted Robots To Brawl For National Pride · · Score: 1

    At only four metres tall, I wouldn't call them giant.

  11. Re:Monty Python. on Hacking Team Hacked, Attackers Grab 400GB of Internal Data · · Score: 1

    It's only a model...

  12. Re:Internet without evangelicals = Win on Brazilian Evangelicals Set Up a "Sin Free" Version of Facebook · · Score: 1

    Better yet, they should make an internet of their own.

    They're going to make their own Internet, with bingo and choir singers.

  13. Re:Monty Python. on Hacking Team Hacked, Attackers Grab 400GB of Internal Data · · Score: 1

    Why? Are you going somewhere?

  14. Re:Looking to move off of iTunes on How Apple Music Can Disrupt Users' iTunes Libraries · · Score: 1

    Maybe you're thinking about the structure on the old iPods (which were hidden to begin with), which was a total nightmare. I did read somewhere that it was intended to appease the labels so that copying music back from an iPod would be so annoying that it would "stop piracy". You know how the labels think...

  15. Re:MS-DOS's error message on Ask Slashdot: If You Could Assemble a "FrankenOS" What Parts Would You Use? · · Score: 1

    Keyboard error or no keyboard present. Press F1 to continue.

  17. Re:Looking to move off of iTunes on How Apple Music Can Disrupt Users' iTunes Libraries · · Score: 1

    The way files are organized by artists and albums isn't a vendor lock-in.

    And the only vendor lock-in for music files sold in the iTunes Store, FairPlay, hasn't been used for over eight years.

    I guess if you blindly hate companies you don't need to keep up with actual facts...

  18. Re:Citizen of Belgium here on Greece Rejects EU Terms · · Score: 1

    You're talking about banks in the U.S.A., right?

    Signed,

  19. Re:Looking to move off of iTunes on How Apple Music Can Disrupt Users' iTunes Libraries · · Score: 1

    You've never even seen how iTunes organizes files then, because there's an excellent, human-readable structure.

  20. Humans versus machines on Dartmouth Contests Showcase Computer-Generated Creativity · · Score: 1

    A series of contests at Dartmouth College will pit humans versus machines.

    Do you want Skynet? Because that's how you get Skynet.

  21. Here's the twist on Dartmouth Contests Showcase Computer-Generated Creativity · · Score: 2

    The contest itself was created by a computer.

  22. Re:Looking to move off of iTunes on How Apple Music Can Disrupt Users' iTunes Libraries · · Score: 1

    Different artists happened to have released albums with the same names. I do agree that this isn't the norm so iTunes should default to accepting the information in the ID3 metadata.

  23. Re:Do robots have new generations? on Seahorse Tails Could Inspire New Generation of Robots · · Score: 1

    round squishy tails

    I'm pretty sure there's a market for that kind of toys in Japan.

  24. Re:Looking to move off of iTunes on How Apple Music Can Disrupt Users' iTunes Libraries · · Score: 1

    I don't understand what you want. If you let iTunes manage your files, they'll be organized both in the UI and in directories. With the "compilation" checkbox the files will be kept in their own directory for the album.

    What else do you want?

  25. Re:Looking to move off of iTunes on How Apple Music Can Disrupt Users' iTunes Libraries · · Score: 1

    If the software manages your files, you complain.
    If I tell you that you have the option to manage your files yourself, you complain.
