  1. Re:Cruz can't be trusted on Ted Cruz Wants Minimum H-1B Wage of $110,000 (computerworld.com) · · Score: 1

    Then you havent been paying attention to what that hag has been doing for the past couple years. Trump is an ass but he is being upfront with his assholeness. Hillary is not. I support and would vote for Hillary...for prison.

  2. Re: "the most effective recruiter in the world" on Hillary Clinton Urges Silicon Valley To 'Disrupt' ISIS · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Errr...9/11 was done by Musi' terrorists you idjiot. As for Pear Harbour....the Japanese attacked a military base. They didn't say try and bomb Hawaii so Im not sure where your thought process went off the rails with this one either. Of course this is probably giving you too much credit as you probably saw that reply on facebook and are now regurgitating it here.

  3. Re:Photoshop on Ask Slashdot: What Windows-Only Apps Would You Most Like To See On Linux? · · Score: 1

    Sorry but that is just bullshit. Rightly or wrongly the industry standard is Photoshop and its workflow. Sticking your fingers in your ears and going la la la I cant hear you doesnt make the truth any less real. This is a common problem with many FOSS programs. They do their own thing in their own way just to be different. Not because it is better. Now Im not saying GIMP is total shit. GIMP is fine if all you have used is Corel Draw or MS Paint. Once you go beyond that its work flow SUCKS. Its advanced features....are not advanced, even when compared to even 3 year old versions of Photoshop GIMP gets it ass handed to it. The best and only good thing about GIMP is it is free. That is not saying much. Honestly if there WAS a Linux FOSS version of Photoshop CC (not even CC 2014...just one gen out of date CC) Linux would find a hell of a lot more traction in professional circles outside the IT dept.

  5. Re:and the beer is really good on How American Students Can Get a University Degree For Free In Germany · · Score: 1

    Not really. Beer was not meant to be a pastime enjoyment. It was survival. For millennia it was the only known safe and easy way to have potable water supply, and its 'liquid bread', so its packed with nutrients and calories. The idea of actually brewing beer for the alcohol content...was not even on the agenda until more modern times. IE people didnt drink beer for the taste, they drank it because they HAD to.

  6. Re:There is no such thing as non-empirical science on Have Some Physicists Abandoned the Empirical Method? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    IF you are not willing to even entertain the idea of trying to back up your ideas with the scientific method you are not a scientist. You are a philosopher. For the longest time 'Aether' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aether_theories) was considered an elegant solution. The scientific method proved it to be bollocks. BUT if every scientist simply went 'yeah that is a simple and elegant solution' Aether would still be considered a valid scientific idea. That is what separates scientists from navel gazers.

  7. Re:title is wrong on Chess Grandmaster Used iPhone To Cheat During Tournament · · Score: 1

    You are assuming that the two other stalls didnt have 'out of order' posters when he went to the can. I know that is how I would do it. See his routine....stick up a couple signs. wait till he leaves. take them down. rinse and repeat...UNTIL I wanted to 'catch' him. Maybe he has diabetes and needs to pee often. Who knows. My point is he probably is guilty...but peeps are way to fast to jump to conclusions and destroy peoples lives.

    Maybe the other stalls werent empty like the person who 'caught' him is claiming. Maybe they are the ones who set him up. Its how I would do it. IDK, just playing devils advocate...but that is why innocent until proven guilty SHOULD be the way it is in all courts - even the court of public opinion. Of course most people are too stupid to think for themselves - as Honey BooBoo and Kim K's popularity prove - so it probably is just a pipe dream.

    Gotcha. It wasnt Hilly noooo, she was just...gasp!...the victim of over-aggressive supporters. I bet you will say the same thing about her "3 in the morning phone call" ad too right...you know the one that undermined Barry in the eyes of 50% of the population and made his job a shit ton harder. And then you move the goal posts. You really are what is wrong with the Democratic party. How about this, hold everyone to the same standards and try and be a liberal like the rest of the sane part of the once great Democratic party. Vote for someone else while there is still time.

  11. Re:Almost Time on Hillary Clinton Declares 2016 Democratic Presidential Bid · · Score: 1

    You do realize that the money people are indeed fleeing the US in record numbers? Even just a quick google can show you that this is a disturbing trend...and with Barry O actual musing on national fucking television about a death tax, exit tax, and taxing the rich even more expect the exodus of rich people to get worse if Hilly gets elected. Sucks but the Dem need a LIBERAL candidate or the US is fucked. http://www.cnbc.com/id/1024134...

    "Twice the lanes, twice the speed"...man someone doesnt understand the PCIe standard or how to do simple math. Its actually twice the lanes, FOUR* times the (theoretical) speed. 2x500MB/s vs 4x985MB/s * rounded up

    You might want to give WaterFox a spin. I find it - slightly- faster than PM, and it handles massive amounts of tabs open better - and generally handles ram allocation better.

  15. Re:How quaint. on Why We Have To Kiss Off Big Carbon Now · · Score: 1

    I laugh at people who think oil prices only lower the shipping cost of food. FFS talk to a farmer. Guess what they use...diesel and a lot of it. When the cost of oil goes down, the cost of diesel goes down too. This means the cost of the crops go down. Which you, guessed it, means savings at the grocery market. Who'd have thunk it! When net expense drastically decrease the cost of final goods also can decrease - and yes they will as food is a cut throat marketplace with slim margins.

  17. Re:Seriously... on Netflix Cracks Down On VPN and Proxy "Pirates" · · Score: 1

    Considering that their current model is failing and failing badly (movie goer numbers are down IIRC to 90s levels...and percentage of peeps who go to the movies is also WAY down - IIRC 10% now from its high of 50%)....maybe it is time they take another look at their multi-market strategy. Maybe they can make MORE money if they 'sold' the media for LESS. Odd how that works, but even Henry Ford understood this way back in the dark ages of US consumerism. :P Honestly these dinosaurs still think they are the only game in town. Now peeps have options. Video games, home cinema setups, cable TV, hell theaters that cater to hipsters with only old movie showings. Brave new world.

  18. Re:One fiber to rule them... on Google Fiber's Latest FCC Filing: Comcast's Nightmare Come To Life · · Score: 2

    Bahahaha. Thanks for the laugh. Who do you think granted those companies their virtual monopolies? Answer: the state gov. In the real world the upto 20mb works like this "first 5 seconds is full speed, then next 30 seconds is half speed...then after that its 10%". They call it 'Fair Usage Policies' and thats how they around the law as you GET your full 20mb/s...but nowhere does it state that you get it all the time. Thus its not fraud as you agreed to it before purchasing it...from the usually ONE option in your part of town. Want to fix the Net in North America. Remove ALL monopoly laws. Allow everyone to compete in every area. THEN this 'up to' BS dies overnight as customers will have the power again.

    "I" may not be able to paint it but A) many people can copy it - to the point it is indistinguishable from the original B) I can take a picture of it, print it and have an near duplicate of it. In other words your strawman is as stupid as you are.

Now which would the US gov be more interested in having in their cyber crimes division? Tinfoil hatish, but its the only thing that makes sense with such BS questions that are obviously meant to make it virtually impossible for any US born to 'pass'.

    AC I cordially invite you to go fuck yourself. You seem to think "Samsung" is just one big company. Its not. There are many divisions of Samsung that are creating - and have created - cutting edge tech. Tech that is changing the face of the industry. For example their storage division's Solid State Drives have the lowest RMA in the consumer sphere. The only one comparable in NAND mfg'ing is Toshiba (imho IMFT's output varies from good to very good...but its QA is a touch lacking...thus is 3rd). Hell if its wasn for Samsung's storage division solid state drives as we know it today wouldnt exist.
