  1. There's AGS (Adventure Game Studio) that's been around for some time. It's great for creating point-and-click adventure games... and it compiles to native Windows exes, so there's no need for SCUMM or emulation.

  2. Re:TFS could be a little less obscure on 'My Heroic and Lazy Stand Against IFTTT' (pinboard.in) · · Score: 1

    IFTTT pre-dates Android. In fact, it is just as much an "Android app" as it is a GMail app, or an iOS app. It's just a front-end that allows a user to have two separate APIs work together to do something. Want the pictures you load on Facebook to go to your Google Drive? Sure! Want them to go to Dropbox instead? No prob. When weather.com reports rain, want a calendar event set up? Done! There are TONS of possibilities that IFTTT can string together that have NOTHING to do with Android. It just happens that IFTTT has an Android (and probably a lesser functional iOS) application.

  3. Great... so, what did they get from it? on FBI Unlocks iPhone Without Apple's Help In San Bernadino Case (recode.net) · · Score: 1

    Fantastic - they finally quit their bitching and did the damn work to get in... but what did they get out of it?

  4. Re:apple can pull some DCMA BS and sue them on FBI Hires Cellebrite To Crack San Bernadino iPhone (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    Apple has been pushing pretty hard to keep their shit on lock-down. This is probably the best chance we've seen so far at this ever possibly happening.

    Anybody else remember hiding rars in jpgs?

  8. What's wrong with Hangouts? It's like Facebook Messenger, only far more advanced and way better for group chats.

  9. And the worst of it? on Hackers Modify Water Treatment Parameters By Accident (softpedia.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    If somebody had have died or gotten sick, the hacking party would be the ones to get in shit, not the asshat that put the admin password in a text file...

  10. So basically it's just a huge monitor with a built-in Chromecast, and a built-in Vizio-equivalent of a Chromecast?

  11. Re:why is this on slashdot? on Terrorist Attack In Brussels Airport and Metro Station: At Least 34 Dead (mirror.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    Meanwhile you've got this completely off-topic comment bitching about the fact that there HASN'T (at the time) been any coverage of this. No wonder Slashdot is turning into a shit pile... nobody can fucking agree on what should be posted on here.

    Most need to say "This is may be something serious or maybe not... but it's 2016 and we're still using older-than-fuck technology to run most of the world. Maybe we should focus on something more modern to make things work. Might even be cheaper and more efficient in the long run! If we keep doing what we're doing and I'm wrong, worst case scenario is we're all fucked and we die. Worst case scenario of trying to advance and modernize energy and technology is we're out a bit of money"

    could use until as recently as last year to get mobile access to top secret encrypted calls and secure e-mail

    Good thing they're trying to outlaw encryption! The Government will save so much money by no longer needing secured devices.

  14. Re:dogs on Google Puts Boston Dynamics Up For Sale In Robotics Retreat (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Every push builds their calibration and balance. They're literally training it to become invincible. They should be pushing it with terror in their eyes knowing that one day they will be bowing to the robot overlords that they created.

  16. They'll just retract it on The Law Is Clear: the FBI Cannot Make Apple Rewrite Its OS (backchannel.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Give them another week or to... they'll butcher the law, renege the whole thing. Make modifications so that they can do whatever the fuck they want... and there's nothing any of us can do about it. We pay them taxes, they use that money in return to fuck us over again.

  17. What happened to voting? on AT&T, Comcast Kill Local Gigabit Expansion Plans In Tennessee · · Score: 1

    Big company says NEW SKUB IS BAD. ONLY OUR OLD SKUB IS GOOD. Why is the next step not "Let the citizens decide whose skub to use?" or better yet, let both skubs co-exist and create healthy competition? The entire US is fucked backwards when it comes to this shit... instead of bending over backwards for corporations, they should start bending over backwards to the people buying the shit from the corporations allowing them to exist in the first place.

    I tried the ask and google toolbars, but they don't have the feature. Maybe the Download.com or Email Magic one will have the feature I need!

    But seriously, I'd rather not add another plugin... I just did a huge cleanup of ones I don't need anymore. I shouldn't have to install a plugin to restore a site's feature.
