  1. why read about tesla? on Ask Slashdot: Best Books On the Life and Work of Nikola Tesla? · · Score: 1

    read about and _understand_ his work!
    a) its the awesome part anyhow
    b) considering his seemingly unending love for advances science, it would be only logical to conclude he would prefer people learning about his work than about "himself" (as in: cheap talk).

  2. threats are not trolling on Why the Trolls Will Always Win · · Score: 1

    Real trolling requires witt and while infuriating the target should cause generally great laugther (eg. by seemingly playing along and letting the target run into a self-built wall). Threats are just a hate crime and should be procesuted.

  3. overrated on The Greatest Keyboard Ever Made · · Score: 1

    I prefer my cherries: g80 with blues at home, mx board 3.0 with browns (because I dont want to drive my coworkers mad) at work. Esp. if you compare price/value.

  4. Depends on your definition of Recreation... on Living On a Carbon Budget: The End of Recreation As We Know It? · · Score: 1

    If recreation for you is driving a gas guzzler cross-country while "turning on both heating and air conditioning", then yes. On the other hand, for most people recreation involves relaxing activities which have somewhere between a low or even negative carbon footprint (like gardening).

  5. Re:He wants to establish Airstrip One on David Cameron Says Brits Should Be Taught Imperial Measures · · Score: 1

    cant predict everything correctly ;)

  6. He wants to establish Airstrip One on David Cameron Says Brits Should Be Taught Imperial Measures · · Score: 1

    considering how much the UK loves America and that they want to leave the EU, the map from 1984 is not so far away any more ;)

  7. Like last year ... on Euclideon Teases Photorealistic Voxel-Based Game Engine · · Score: 1

    and the year before.

  8. Re:What are you afraid of? on Ask Slashdot: How To Keep Students' Passwords Secure? · · Score: 1

    not really ... simple rule: one password for stuff you dont care about, custom and secure passwords for stuff you do care about. Every kid understands that much.

  9. What are you afraid of? on Ask Slashdot: How To Keep Students' Passwords Secure? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I mean thats the obvious question ... if all an attacker can do is read some textbooks then I don't give crap about how secure the password is.

  10. increases sun radiation on IBM Solar Concentrator Can Produce12kW/day, Clean Water, and AC · · Score: 1

    you mean it _bundles_ the suns radiation, thats slightly different from increasing the output ;)

  11. Richochet on Wired Profiles John Brooks, the Programmer Behind Ricochet · · Score: 1

    I was thinking about the epic ego platform shooter based on Goldsrc

  12. science has no problem on Science Has a Sexual Assault Problem · · Score: 1

    because science is a concept.

    the people conducting what they call science are the problem.

  13. Re:Still pretty affordable on Is the Tesla Model 3 Actually Going To Cost $50,000? · · Score: 1

    I think in California you have enough sun to put a solar charger up. After all thats when electric cars really start to pay, when you dont have to use grid power but can generate your own.

  14. Its called Humanism on Why Atheists Need Captain Kirk · · Score: 1

    go educate yourself you ignorant fools!

  15. Did anyone already DNA-check them? on Mushroom-Like Deep Sea Organism May Be New Branch of Life · · Score: 1

    I am still astonished that biologist seemingly mostly are like "jeah, that somehow looks like a bird, lets put it in the same tree" instead of rigorously DNA-testing the shit out of everything.

  16. Re:Like DRM? on Could Tech Have Stopped ISIS From Using Our Own Heavy Weapons Against Us? · · Score: 1

    > Like DRM?
    argh, thats what I wanted to post :D

  17. Learning to code is learning a tool on Does Learning To Code Outweigh a Degree In Computer Science? · · Score: 1

    it wont help you shit in how to design the thing you want to build.

  18. Haters gonna hate on You Got Your Windows In My Linux · · Score: 1

    Seriously, most of systemd debate seems to be driven by FUD and being scared of new stuff. Like "we can't run our old init scripts any more" (which is wrong) ... jeah, but nobody is gonna miss your unreadable bash-crap anyhow!

  19. In other news ... on States Allowing Medical Marijuana Have Fewer Painkiller Deaths · · Score: 1

    countries with stricter gun laws have fewer gun-related deaths.

  20. Finally get us artificial gravity! on Eye Problems From Space Affect At Least 21 NASA Astronauts · · Score: 1

    seriously, making a spinning station can't be _that_ hard.

  21. Re:Not Very Prepared on Slashdot Asks: How Prepared Are You For an Earthquake? · · Score: 1

    same, the biggest recorded quake n my area (somewhere in europe) was somewhere around 5 and that was a comfy 30km off...

  22. Not a single "fix" on The Tech Fixes the PS3 Still Needs, Eight Years On · · Score: 1

    All of these are feature requests.

  23. everything I didnt learn in school on Ask Slashdot: What Do You Wish You'd Known Starting Out As a Programmer? · · Score: 1

    less about programming-language-x and more about processes and stuff like collaboration and version control. Imho people should learn that asap, preferably even before they start developing "more serious stuff" (i.e. anything more than "hello world").

  24. How is that news? on Researchers Find Security Flaws In Backscatter X-ray Scanners · · Score: 1

    I remember people successfully demonstrating tricking those things since they were first released.

  25. Re:Creating demand? on Fighting Invasive Fish With Forks and Knives · · Score: 1

    exactly. ty for that link, thats what I was thinking about in the back of my head. also wtf downvoted this and for what reason?
