  1. This is dumb. What about OS X? on New Intel and AMD Chips Will Only Support Windows 10 (pcworld.com) · · Score: 2

    Making a new chip incompatible with older operating systems is stupid. And what about alternatives to Windows? Apple relies on Intel for CPUs for their computer line.

  2. how old? on Apple Should Stop Selling Four-Year-Old Computers (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    I read this article and the complaints section on my several-years old HP core 2 duo model. Who knows the computer's actual model name because as with most Windows pc's, it's completely forgettable.

  3. Let's hear it for Marissa Mayer! on Highest-Paid CEOs Run Worst-Performing Companies, Research Finds (independent.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    hahahaha not the best CEO.

  4. Nintendo has lots of worthy IP that could be made into mobile games, using Mario, Link, etc. There's plenty of potential left at Nintendo if they simply move beyond console gaming.

  5. Do We Have A Choice? on Slashdot Asks: Would You Eat Lab-Grown Meat? (dmarge.com) · · Score: 1

    My guess is no.

  6. sometimes a person can end up on an unintended site. this man is a moron and a threat to America when given a soapbox.

  7. Vote Green! on Bernie Sanders Endorses Hillary Clinton (cnn.com) · · Score: 1

    Alas the Green Party is only on the ballot in 26 states, but I'm still going to Vote Green as a signal of my displeasure with the Republicrats.

  8. No camera? What about Lidar? on DVD Player Found In Tesla Autopilot Crash, Says Florida Officials (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    I thought that high-end consumer vehicles employed Lidar to detect physical objects in front of them?

    And isn't it a requirement of Tesla to have the cameras installed before you install the autopilot software?

  9. Also used the Newton in 1993, which Apple started developing in 1987

  10. I used the EO in 1993. It was a real device, not just some scribbles in a madman's notebook.

  11. Don't they have taxis in Austin, TX? on Austin Is Conducting Sting Operations Against Ride-Sharing Drivers (examiner.com) · · Score: 1

    weird that people only trust Lyft and Uber.

  12. what's wrong with algorithm? on Volkswagen To Pay $10.2 Billion In Emissions Lawsuit (bbc.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    if they have an algorithm that reduces output during tests, and not driving, why not apply that algorithm as well during actual driving?

  13. Great News for Hillary Clinton on Spy Chief: Foreign Hackers May Be Targeting Presidential Candidates (nbcnews.com) · · Score: 1

    She has lots of experience being hacked by foreign nationals.

  14. Not related to the wizard Tensor of Tensor's Floating Disc.

    Prior to XP they ran NT, or OS2/Warp.

  17. wildlife will trigger alarms on India Installs 'Laser Walls' At Border With Pakistan (nbcnews.com) · · Score: 1

    this is doomed to fail. people make up a nation-state, and membership is as arbitrary as geographic borders.

  18. where is the proof? on In Internet Age, Pirate Radio Arises As Surprising Challenge (ap.org) · · Score: 1

    sadly, the politician-class is not held to be accountable for making up complete bullshit when urging new laws to protect against the population using our first amendment rights.

  19. Re:Porn is Addictive on Utah Governor: 'Porn Is a Public Health Crisis' (cnet.com) · · Score: 2

    Coffee is also addictive, and the Mormons have banned the consumption of Caffeine.

  20. Utah must have fixed all their other issues on Utah Governor: 'Porn Is a Public Health Crisis' (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Utah must have fixed all their other issues if the governor has all this free time to worry about porn's impact on his constituents. Except he's a Republican, and they have a history of being sexually repressed yet interested in what other people are doing in the privacy of their own homes.

  21. down long enough to copy on Apple's iTunes Movies and iBooks Stores Mysteriously Go Down In China (appleinsider.com) · · Score: 1

    China's busy copying all the content from the iTunes movies / iBooks sites. They'll return to the internet later.

  22. Re:I'd pay extra for.... on AMC Drops 'Texting Friendly' Theaters Idea (networkworld.com) · · Score: 1

    Shouldn't have to pay for that, it should be a built-in FEATURE of seeing a movie in a theatre. Or ballet, or opera, or classical symphony. Wouldn't work for rock shows but hey, gotta start somewhere.

  23. Re:Good Thinking, AMC! on AMC Drops 'Texting Friendly' Theaters Idea (networkworld.com) · · Score: 1

    Medicine balls?

  24. abusing your cusotmers on AMC Drops 'Texting Friendly' Theaters Idea (networkworld.com) · · Score: 1

    first you bill me $22.50 for a ticket. It's an additional $25 for popcorn & drinks. Then I sit through 20 minutes of ads (scorn) and a few movie previews (yay).

    but you float this idea of taking me out of the willful suspension of belief, thinking it will be a better business model to ruin the movie-going experience?

  25. didn't stop Koch Industries or Goldman Sachs.
