  1. You expect anything different on Google Might Disappear in Five Years · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    You honestly expect anything different to come out of monkey boy's mouth?

  2. Re:WMDs on Cuba Switching to Linux · · Score: 1

    Yes but It is hard to complain that a system is failing when the largest super power in history has banned all trade and imposed terrible sanctions against you.
    Makes it rather difficult to evaluate things honestly.

  3. Re:WMDs on Cuba Switching to Linux · · Score: 1

    IM assuming the WMD are free universal health care, sustainable agriculture and quality education for all its citizens.
    We cannot have these ideas spreading. :)

  4. cmdr taco on More on Last Year's Cisco Source Code Theft · · Score: 3, Funny

    Master of the ebonics.

  5. Re:What must suck... on Interview with the Creator of BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    If the fuckwads that think this really had any clue how debilitating asperbers can be, let alone autism, they would appreciate his accomplishments more, not less.

  6. Re:Quote from the BBC on Interview with the Creator of BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    Man you people who casually identify yourselves to autism, really have no clue how debilitating it is.
    Eintein and Newton, in no way had autism. Aspergers != autism. There isn't this nice neat linear scale that ties the two together in terms of severity.
    People that genuinely have aspergers also have an extremely hard time getting along in life. It isn't like "ohh i feel anti social today".

  7. Re:A great book on Interview with the Creator of BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    No it was narrated as if the child had autism. They are not the same thing in the least.

  8. Snide remark on Internet Hunting Banned in California · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I highly doubt the submitter's genes would be alive today, if not for the hunting of "innocent" animals, whatever the hell that means.

  9. Re:Moore's Law on Intel Seeking Moore's Law Original Publication · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Has clockspeed doubled in the last 18 months? No, not even close.
    Will it continue to ramp up as it has in the past. Probably not.
    Has the number of transistors doubled every 18 months? Yes and it will continue to do so for awhile yet. Moore's Law is valid and will be valid even if there is no clockspeed increase, until we stop doubling transistor counts. You make the mistake in directly tying increases in performance to increase in clockspeed, which is a an oversimplification of what goes on in a cpu.
    As to what the average person calls something I could care less, Moore's Law has always pertained to transistor counts.
    Performance isn't tied down to clockspeed.

  10. Re:Moore's Law on Intel Seeking Moore's Law Original Publication · · Score: 3, Informative

    Repeat after me:
    Moore's Law has nothing to do with clockspeed.
    Maybe get that tatooed somewhere.

  11. Re:What Al Gore said... on Al Gore Invents Internet TV · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    What are you 5 years old?
    I bet you are wetting yourself in anticipation of all the flames this topic will produce.

  12. Re:What Al Gore said... on Al Gore Invents Internet TV · · Score: 1

    Of course its obvious. But then again so are most trolls.

    Nope. The internet makes you stupid.

  14. Re:When was the last time Moore's law was correct? on Forty Years of Moore's Law · · Score: 1

    Moore's Law has nothing to do with clock speed.
    It has to do with the number of transistors doubling every 18 months or so. This has held true.

  15. Re:The idea's fine; $0.05 is insane on Would You Pay 5 Cents For a Song? · · Score: 1

    If you think apple or google pay 50 cents a gig you are insane. Id be surprised if it was more than a few pennies.

  16. Dupe! on Attempt to Apply Decency Standards to Cable/Satellite Television · · Score: 1

    Err... just practicing for later today.
    Gotta keep my fingers nimble.

  20. Somewhat ontopic link on Where Have All The Cycles Gone? · · Score: 1

    Talks about the need for more concurrency as we hit the clock cycle wall.

  21. Re:Freedom 0? on Being Free is Hard to Do · · Score: 1

    How is it cute? I know the technical level here on slashdot is now quite low, and not everyone has a computer science background, but starting a list at 0 is quite the norm. I will let the man Dijkstra educate you. http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/transcriptions/ EWD08xx/EWD831.html/

  22. Heh on Laptops May Be Hazardous to Your Fertility · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Ahh but there has to be at least the possibility of procreation for this to be a problem. Somehow I don't think many here need worry. :P

  23. Re:oppression of oppression of technology. on The Real da Vinci Code · · Score: 1

    Now that is one batshit crazy website. Its like a bizzaro world interpretation of everything.

  24. Re:Politics and Programming on Fabian Pascal Reacts · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The quote has almost nothing to do with politics and everything to do with how ideology filters out objectivity.
    A very apropos quote in my opinion, and it kind of makes your comment ironic to boot. :)

  25. I have read the article on Fabian Pascal Reacts · · Score: 4, Funny

    and can summarize it for you.
    He basically makes the point that everyone on slashdot is a clueless twit.
    A very wise man indeed. :)
