  1. Re:Solar Cell efficiency on Metamaterial Forms Near-Perfect Mirror · · Score: 2

    In case it wasn't obvious, I made that last part up.

    Which part? The part about not being obvious or the part about making up the last part?

  2. Re:this model is a finite bubble. on Apple Will Pay More To Streaming Music Producers Than Spotify -- But Not Yet · · Score: 1

    Nowhere is this more obvious than American pop music and radio. the same 5 songs are played, 15 times a week, for 3 months in a concerted effort to sell a product or vision.

    Here's an easy solution that will both help you and fuck them at the same time: stop listening to radio.

    I thought so at first, but it seems unlikely:

    Welcome to Web 5.0, where people save photos as GIFs and logos as JPEGs, use 100KB javascript libraries to do the job of a few lines of CSS3 and use URL shorteners without thinking about their users cholesterol.

    So you only enjoy one of your two penises? That's only half the fun!

  6. If you believe this then I have a bridge for sale in Brooklyn.

    Now wait a minute here, guy. I just happen to have purchased said bridge last week, paid in full with Bitcoins, from a Wumi Abdul from Nigeria; the only Daughter of late Mr and Mrs George Abdul. He assured me the deal was legit and that the ownership certificate was already in the mail. So I really don't see how you would be able to sell my bridge. I do, however, am willing to sell you a timeshare on my bridge for a minimal fee of 5000 Dogecoins. You can send the payment to DNsSKbyNsi7369SGdvbKqLM9h4D5wAvmGD.

    You know, if you weren't waiting to post these stupid comments on Slashdot, you'd have more time to fap.

    Look at this image, then you'll understand why they can't make symmetric controllers.

    Wow, unless they use leaf switches, those sound like really crappy buttons. You should really think about switching to Cherry-brand microswitches.

    Here's a set of coordinates. Have fun understanding where commas are meant to separate coordinates and where they're meant to separate thousands.

    The HTML5 video player on Polygon.com nearly crashed Safari on OS X. It started playing correctly but after the first minute it's like it was trying to reserve all the RAM on my system or something. I've never had a problem with HTML5 video players on other websites.

    I was about to post something about Netflix too, I'm really wondering if Netflix can get back the extortion money they "had" to pay to some ISPs.

  19. Re:So is there a form for the ISP on ISP Breaking Net Neutrality? The FCC's Got a Complaint Form For That · · Score: 2

    You said something about people getting flags for amusement parks with special effects, something about firing some of your customers but being open about it for years, something about defeating the hordes with the necronomicon and other hideous activities and that your coffee filter was removing 30mg of lipides but you're not missing it at all.

    What worries me is that some asshole politician is going to try and use that as an argument against crypto-currencies, as if fiat money was any better.

    Given that this is Slashdot, I believe the appropriate reply to your question is "a Raspberry Pi Beowulf cluster, enclosed in a 3D-printed 1U rackmount unit with a cooling system controlled by an Arduino".
