  1. Re: Am i the only one... on Creator of Top iOS Ad Blocker Pulls App After Two Days · · Score: 1

    I read it all and I don't believe him I think the pressure and apple got to him. He's just ditching on a good note instead of a bad note.

  2. Get over Apple already, they are part of the problem. They are not the world and they will probably not adopt them because that's Apple. They are creating android apps right now because they want to keep people locked into Apple.

    You won't win vs apple fan boys they still think safari is a modern browser lol

  4. Re: And how much do they pay for slashvertisements on Could the Best Windows 10 Laptop Be a Mac? · · Score: 4, Informative

    Sold my ASUS laptop that was 4 years old for 60% of what I paid. Hate to break it to apple people but you buy a good enough machine it or the parts will be worth something later, not just apple.

  5. Re: Anti-Virus Companies All Suck on Former Employees Accuse Kaspersky Lab of Faking Malware · · Score: 1

    Every year it's about one of them doing something similar. I love kaspersky, why you ask? It finds what others don't, it's developed in the wild west where everyone hacks everyone aka Russia. So you know it's better than our stuff and I have yet seen a kgb type exploit exposed and used by 3rd parties unlike our (us and gov) exploits that are found and used all the time by hackers. You also hear results from it example " all the computers but the kaspersky and bitdender, etc... computers got the virus" when I talk to security professionals about rare outbreaks. For the average consumer I think it's a great value. P.S. I never got why everyone loves Microsoft anti-virus, crap gets by all the time I should know I have to fix it.

    Don't remind me where Jon is going.... It's true DTV seen the end coming and said why not lol

    This, nvidia is playing the market with their "features" aka scams. Buy a 400-500 dollar for a poorly optimizer game? Wtf is this bs lol

    Instead of providing to the bigger picture.*** AC killed that one.

  10. Re: "NVidia Hopes to Sell"... CUDA on NVIDIA Hopes To Sell More Chips By Bringing AI Programming To the Masses · · Score: 1

    Nvidia wants a way to force users to need them. That's why they keep creating closed source that no one can look at in steading of proving to the bigger picture.

  11. Re: Don't buy based on any promises on NVIDIA Hopes To Sell More Chips By Bringing AI Programming To the Masses · · Score: 1

    Because they are a scam, gpu markets been steady until recently.... Now everyone "needs" a new nvidia gpu for the new features that have marginal benifits and they are paying companies to use them to increase sales... They keep them closed source and have caused nothing but trouble for AAA titles.. They were confronted about their false specs during a press release and they refused to answer or comment on them at all.

  12. Re: Chips! on NVIDIA Hopes To Sell More Chips By Bringing AI Programming To the Masses · · Score: 1

    If they run it like they are currently running the gpu market no thank you.
    After the latest scams I trust them as far as I could move a 1 ton boulder.

  13. Re: Mac games?!? Why? on Square Enix Pulls, Apologizes For Mac Version of Final Fantasy XIV · · Score: 1

    Mod points someone!
    On a serious note why would one of the highest profiting companies of all time be behind on everything right now? Safari just got rated one of worst browsers present since edge moved IE up. They are having major OS issues, new viruses and now a stream of game issues.... I hope they spend that money on something good.

  14. Re:Funny .... on AMD Radeon R9 Fury X Launched, Independent Benchmarks, HBM Put To the Test · · Score: 1

    I'm not pushing liquid cooling, just saying the closed loop works great on the CPU, I can see why they would push it for video. If it keeps things cooler then you get more life, efficiency and can put it into a smaller space :P

    Being smart with money isn't being cheap lol You can spend double the amount on your system and in a couple years I'll upgrade again and maybe match the price of your first system. Nvidia forcing users to have a new card for new games is a big scam lol They look almost the same as games a year ago but require double the power why? For those couple "nvidia" features?

    65% of people can't play Batman AK fine on any card, look at steam they are giving refunds away in the 100's if not 1000's... LOL It's even dropping down on the top list 1 slot every couple of hours.

    I'm not a fanboy but paying to be the primary video vend forcing users to buy cards to run certain games well.... Having major driver issues, forcing closed source "features" into the market that only work on their cards and saying their tech / chips out process brands like intel just shows how nvidia is ANYTHING but gamer friendly.

    I'm sure you tested out the connectors and know the specs on them right?
    The failure rate of low pressure liquid cooling is actually quite low for the lifespan of the cards. (It's really low if you take out the "user connected" and "unknown branded" liquid cooling.

  20. Re: Is it the phone or the stupid stuff installed on Ask Slashdot: What Are the Most Stable Smartphones These Days? · · Score: 1

    If you have ATT or Verizon, buy the international variant Android That supports 4G. No bloatware or issues super stable, lower bill and if you download dumb apps you can reset it. 9 out of 10 times it's the apps/bloatware when it comes to android. I have run GPE, and debloated roms for months without any restarts, when i do restart its for a uplate, backup or rom.. G3 G4 and G5.

  21. Re: Journalists being stonewalled by Apple? on Developers and the Fear of Apple · · Score: 1

    Every time I say something bad about apple on Slashdot I lose rep lol. But there are true points in fact I just had someone tell me over beers how they were going to release their new app on apple first because they had problems with apple in the past when they went android first. Will it change anything? no idea...

  22. Re: Economics on First Nuclear Power Plant Planned In Jordan · · Score: 1

    I agree with nuclear energy done right. The problem is corners are cut to make more money. Corners in construction, maintance, parts and disposal. We just lost our plant because the tubines one of the most expensive parts were prematurely failing because corners were cut and false claims were made. I'm afraid of them just adding to the tally of sites to give it a bad name.

  23. Re: Space Czar on Report: NASA May Miss SLS Launch Deadline · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Deadlines ruin projects, NASA is known to never make a deadline lol. Musk doesn't have the greatest record but when he does hit the milestone there is some extra. Example rocket landing at sea created the new ocean launch\landing pad program with automation research, docking, etc.. That will help more than just the rocket landings.

    I played the BETA and the games pretty fun, I can see my friends that still play counter-strike playing it for a good amount of time. As for the next gen consoles I feel they lack for the cost... but I am kinda bias as I am a PC gamer.
