  1. Re:Yes on Slashdot Asks: Have You Switched To Firefox 57? · · Score: 1

    this is why i run firefox as a user who has no write permissions in the folder where the firefox files are

  2. bottom line: the browser is not faster on Slashdot Asks: Have You Switched To Firefox 57? · · Score: 1

    who cares if a website loads 200ms faster when fighting the deteriorated user experience takes 10 seconds longer?

  3. when its not a symbol of the alt-right, it isn't a force for good.

  4. i don't even care about this game on Shadow Warrior 2 Developers Say DRM Is a Waste of Time (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    but i do want them to have my money now.

  5. it's suicidal on Ask Slashdot: Is KDE Dying? · · Score: 1

    it went from a desktop where the user had complete control over everything to a flashy, colorful thing where everything interrupts the user all the time. the only still-usable kde component is Kwin when used on another desktop environment.

  6. we need to expect this on Windows 10 Anniversary Update Borks Dual-Boot Partitions (omgubuntu.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    stuff like this is why i never install two different OS types on one disk. one physical disk per OS family.

  7. Re:it's easy to find 32 bit Hardware on Linux Letting Go: 32-bit Builds On the Way Out (theregister.co.uk) · · Score: 0

    if you install a 32Bit OS on an AMD64-capable cpu, it will behave as if it was x86, no? So just use x86_64 (AMD64) cpus and use them to test both the 64 bit and the 32 bit builds.

  8. it's easy to find 32 bit Hardware on Linux Letting Go: 32-bit Builds On the Way Out (theregister.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    At least for intel Archs, you can install a 32 Bit OS on a computer with a 64 bit capable cpu.

  9. Re: Ooops, I did it again on Windows 10 Forced Update Resets Default Apps To Microsoft Products (theinquirer.net) · · Score: 0

    run services.msc, look for the service called "windows update" and set it to "disabled"

  10. i don't want thin, design minded devices on In Memoriam: VGA (hackaday.com) · · Score: 1

    I want well ventilated, repairable devices. At least the VGA plug isn't as flimsy as some modern connectors.

  11. now can we please use the same logic for copyright lawsuits?

  12. Let them. on Microsoft Monitoring How Long You Use Windows 10 (betanews.com) · · Score: 0

    I also want them to know and why and how much i use Linux more.

  13. Add more injury on Pirate Bay Cofounder Utterly Bankrupts the Music Industry (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 0

    by putting the device outside playing each song on a speaker as fast as it's being copied. Then it's more damages as it's also a public performance of the song that requires royalities.

  14. so we classify thoughtcrime now? on Court: 'Repugnant' Online Discussions Aren't Thoughtcrime (arstechnica.com) · · Score: -1

    I'd rather a court deciding that there is no such thing as thoughtcrime. instead of classifying things as not thoughtcrime as if some things COULD be classified as thoughtcrime

    I am.

  16. Re:Honestly Linux on Steam Has Brought 1,600 Games To Linux In the Past Three Years (phoronix.com) · · Score: 0

    I have no problem with Valve referring to their distribution as "SteamOS". The problem is that they're using the name in a way that implies that it's something other than Linux. I have seen people ask developers "so this game runs on Windows, Mac, and steamOS. Any plans on porting it to Linux?"

  17. Honestly Linux on Steam Has Brought 1,600 Games To Linux In the Past Three Years (phoronix.com) · · Score: 0

    Now if they could just stop calling Linux "SteamOS"

  18. They deserve this on Apple Wages Battle To Keep App Store Malware-Free (networkworld.com) · · Score: 1

    The store is the only guardian on the entire iOS operating system. it's a single point of failure. If the user had complete access to his device, this wouldn't be a problem.

  19. Re:well done. on Samsung Cripples Windows Update To Prevent Incompatible Drivers · · Score: 0

    That moment when people are so accustomed to a 'feature' taking over control of their device and taking away their authority that they see a comment criticizing this behavior as 'trolling'

  20. Re:well done. on Samsung Cripples Windows Update To Prevent Incompatible Drivers · · Score: 0

    the problem is that windows update restarts while i am doing my work. imagine i'm writing a text. i finished typing a word. i want to press the spacebar now so i can write the next word. In that moment, windows update dialog pops up, steals focus, preselects the "yes restart now" button. all this while my thumb is still on its way to the spacebar, still now knowing that windows update just opened a focus-staling dialog, i press the spacebar. for the fraction of a second, i see something pop up. a moment later, everything closes.

  21. well done. on Samsung Cripples Windows Update To Prevent Incompatible Drivers · · Score: -1, Troll

    Enabling automatic updates is a greater security threat than not updating your OS at all. The risk of data loss due to sudden unwanted restarts is far greater and more real than having an OS that is 2 days out of date

  22. every racer is an arcade racer on The Rebirth of Arcade Racers -- On Kickstarter · · Score: 1

    There is no racing game chasing realism other than Richard Burns rally. Every other racing game on the planet has ridiculously unbelievable physics. if you want a realistic racing game on pc your options are basically zero. Calling "The Crew" a realistic game is way beyond insane. I've never seen anyone being so out of touch with reality. And i've worked in a psychiatric hospital.

  23. half the effort. on Chrome Beta Now Automatically Pauses Less Important Flash Content · · Score: 2

    >2015 >still not making click-to-play the default for all elements of all plugins Every browser is still exactly like IE6

  24. how convenient on FBI Confirms Open Investigation Into Gamergate · · Score: 1

    The authorities have long had an interest in shutting down video gaming. Naturally they welcome Gamergate.

  25. How is this browser still relevant? on Multi-Process Comes To Firefox Nightly, 64-bit Firefox For Windows 'Soon' · · Score: 1

    every release broke it more and more. for several years.
