  1. Re:Alt+Tab - most common thing I use on Microsoft Asks Users To Call Windows 10 Devs About ALT+TAB Feature (bleepingcomputer.com) · · Score: 1

    thanks for the window+arrow trick, i didn't know it!!

  2. Re:Tuning it out? on The Bursting Social Media Advertising Bubble · · Score: 5, Insightful

    i do use it... but i'd like to see statistics regarding how prevalent it's usage really is. I mean beyond the geek circle :)

    my guess is that adbloc isn't really an issue (unless firefox and chrome make it a default plugin).

    of course the point that marketing effect on consumer behavior is largely unconcious remains.. so that's the real handicap on this study

  3. Re:Seems ridiculously easy on London's Public Bike Data Can Tell Everyone Where You've Been · · Score: 2

    From point A (your house) to point B (your work) there are only a handful of individuals (or only one)... so filtering with some other information (such as trips from point A to C, close to his/her parents) it can be linked to a single individual quite easy.

  4. Re:When comments... on Theo De Raadt's Small Rant On OpenSSL · · Score: 1

    Come on... sometimes a comment is so informative that everyone should read it :)

  5. Next Step on Algorithm Aims To Predict Fiction Bestsellers · · Score: 1

    Making an algorithm to WRITE the next fiction bestseller

  6. Re:Darwin on Thieves Who Stole Cobalt-60 Will Soon Be Dead · · Score: 2

    we need to know if they already have children

  7. Re:Why stop there? on The Second Operating System Hiding In Every Mobile Phone · · Score: 2

    but if someone devices an exploit for QM, the phone will be compromised and not... at the same time

  8. Re:Hangings on US Executions Threaten Supply of Anaesthetic Used For Surgical Procedures · · Score: 1

    why not gas chambers then? seriously... death penalty is always a baaad idea

  9. Re:Any good EE already knows this on Dolphins' Hunting Technique Inspires New Radar Device · · Score: 1

    beacuse we are talking about dolphins-- which send two pulses in quick sucession to cancel bakground noise-- is that it was posted twice, to avoid background noise

  10. Re:I find it more interesting... on 8 Users of Silk Road Arrested, 'Many More To Come' · · Score: 2

    maybe those were real addresses... but not of the real guys on silk road

  11. Re: Douche-o-matic on Police Demand Summary Domain Takedown, Traffic Redirection · · Score: 2

    thanks for noting sarcasm on the internet for the rest ;)

  12. Re:Douche-o-matic on Police Demand Summary Domain Takedown, Traffic Redirection · · Score: 5, Insightful

    they do not only benefit from them, they are the cause! (same as the "piracy" argument)

  13. Re:Comments are hard to read on Come Try Out Slashdot's New Design (In Beta) · · Score: 1

    ^^ Finally someone pointed that out! Mode up please

  14. Re:And? on When Criminals and Terrorists Communicate In Real Time · · Score: 1, Redundant

    CNN is just upset since they have another competitor for the "exclusive news"

  15. Bad statistics are bad on The Most WTF-y Programming Languages · · Score: 4, Insightful

    those conclusions are drawn without controling for a language usage. Since c++ is widely adopted so there will be more instances of a comment where "WTF?" is used.

    Why don't use a percentage at least? Even if that was the case, the problem remains... a wtf-y language may be the most avoided and/or not present in github

  16. Re:What about getting it into Church as well? on California Elementary Schools To Test Anti-Piracy Curriculum · · Score: 1

    ^^^ THIS!

  17. It is that easy? and a good script to read the output

  18. Re:Lie on Can Internet Pseudonymity Be Saved? · · Score: 1
  19. Re:Just windows XP? on With XP's End of Life, Munich Will Distribute Ubuntu CDs · · Score: 1

    I'm sure they won't bother checking your OS. They will be using the end of XP support just as an excuse

  20. No way! on Study Shows Professors With Tenure Are Worse Teachers · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I wonder why a person with in a unremovable job would put low effort on classes...

    Seriously this is news?

  21. Weird on A Climate of Violence? · · Score: 1

    So if a mega blizzard struck on the next winter, leaving thousands isolated and on short supplies... they will be chanting "peace and love"?

    Maybe the correlation can be explained just by time: there are social factors that are leading to increasingly more violent societies (e.g. increasing awareness of social rights).

  22. But... but on Microsoft's Surface RT Was Doomed From Day One · · Score: 0

    windows 8/RT is so consumer centric! These guys dont know anything abput tech things
