  1. Lag on Twitch Is Ditching Flash For HTML5, Just Like YouTube · · Score: 0

    Will the HTML5 player be as CPU intensive as the flash player, as in, completely unusable in full screen or high quality...?

  2. Re:Who wrote the summary? on Uber Faces $410 Million Canadian Class Action Suit · · Score: 0

    Cry some more.

  3. Re:Who wrote the summary? on Uber Faces $410 Million Canadian Class Action Suit · · Score: 1

    Because they don't give a shit. They never did... Oh, and Dice.

  4. Typical PHB. Doesn't realize that mechanical drives have a finite life. SMH

  5. Our work sucks... on What's the Oldest Technology You've Used In a Production Environment? · · Score: 0

    Dumb terminals... Serial terminal servers... HP-UX on PA-RISC... AS/400... SCO Unix... OpenVMS on Alpha... Funny story, the latter two systems died right in front of me when they refused to run backups. The SCO server was eventually virtualized (as all it did was hold an LDAP database), and the Alpha server simply went away... and the (financial) data never replaced or converted and backloaded into the AS/400.

  6. ... screw you. Give us back the old ATI.

    Sincerely,

    Everybody.

    My ears are burning...

  8. Re:Can someone answer me this? on Reddit Will 'Hide' Vile Content After Policy Change · · Score: 0, Funny

    And yet some of us go from +3 to -1 so quickly, it's not funny. I haven't been able to mod in like 4 months.

  9. Hacking in 2014 on Interviews: Ask Brianna Wu a Question · · Score: 0

    Is it true that you (or Phil Fish) hacked yourself in 2014, and that's the reason why nobody has ever been found or charged?

  10. I can't wait... on ICANN's Plan To End Commercial Website Anonymity Creates Real Problems · · Score: -1

    I don't care very much for Randy Harper and her "harassment" escapades, but I can't wait for domain whois blockers to go away. If people are using your contact information to ring your phone off the hook, then complain to the police and phone companies. I've been a domain holder since around 2000, and my current domains since at least 2006. Never once have I been contacted by anyone malicious, except for that one registrar that likes to pretend they're the Canadian government... but I just throw their letters in the trash.

  11. Re:Worlds first Hybird Console? on A Look At the Rare Hybrid Console Built By Sony and Nintendo · · Score: 0

    Ahem. Sharp Twin Famicom.

  12. Re:Broken Content on Warner Bros. Halts Sales of AAA Batman PC Game Over Technical Problems · · Score: 0

    That's the funny thing, you don't need to TAS it to get it to work... Once you know what triggers it, it's just a matter of putting in the inputs and watching it explode.

  13. Fucking Rumblefish strikes again... on Rumblefish Claims It Owns 'America the Beautiful' By United States Navy Band · · Score: 0

    They got me back in 2009 or 2010 for posting video game footage. Fuck those guys with a rusty rake.

  14. Carrier vs Google vs Manufacturer on Samsung Faces Lawsuit In China Over Smartphone Bloatware · · Score: 0

    How much of the bloatware is actually the manufacturer's fault though?

  15. I'll do it... on UK's National Computer Museum Looks For Help Repairing BBC Micros · · Score: 1

    ... if you pay to fly me to the UK and back, parts and labour.

  16. Hey FISA... on Surveillance Court: NSA Can Resume Bulk Surveillance · · Score: 1

    Fuck you.

    Everyone in the world who isn't American

  17. Re:Nobeta on Celebrating Workarounds, Kludges, and Hacks · · Score: 1

    I see what you did there...

  18. "hacks" on Celebrating Workarounds, Kludges, and Hacks · · Score: 1

    See title.

  19. Re:Slashdot is broken. on After Protest, France Cracks Down On Uber · · Score: 1

    ahem.

  20. ZFS on Interview: Ask Linus Torvalds a Question · · Score: 1

    As much as ZFS is stuck behind Oracle and CDDL, wouldn't it be nice to have a filesystem that is more robust than EXT, and a RAID system better than mdadm?

  21. Re:How much performance does it need on Warner Bros. Halts Sales of AAA Batman PC Game Over Technical Problems · · Score: 1

    A 68000 cpu and a OKI 6295 sound chip. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

  22. Re:Broken Content on Warner Bros. Halts Sales of AAA Batman PC Game Over Technical Problems · · Score: 1

    So yeah. Super Mario Brothers 3 is easy enough to QA so you can release a perfect game.

    A perfect game, you say? QA, you say?

    Sorry, but SMB3 was as broken as many games are today. We just didn't notice.

  23. Good. on ICANN Seeks Comment On Limiting Anonymized Domain Registration · · Score: 2

    I'm tired of people owning domains with no way to contact them because of "whois guarding". Maybe ICANN can also go all the way and recall accreditation for registrars known for registering malware/typoscamming/etc domains.

  24. Re:Assholes ... on The Next Java Update Could Make Yahoo Your Default Search Provider · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Java 8, which is the most vibrant and advanced Java release ever.

    Yeah, if your view of "vibrant" is puking on a pile of shit...

  25. Meh. on 3D Printed Supercar Chassis Unveiled · · Score: 2

    I stopped reading at "1/3 the emissions of an electric car".
