  1. Re:A word you made up? on Ask Slashdot: What Is the Best Way To Hold Onto Your Domain? · · Score: 1

    No, it's not that simple.

    I have domains I've owned for that long with similar low usage, and I'm not cybersquatting. Not everyone who behaves differently than you is a cybersquatter.

  2. Facewhat? on Where Facebook Stores 900 Million New Photos Per Day · · Score: 1

    Is facebook still a thing? People still use it after all the security problems and personal information screw-ups?

    He's an asshole, a meticulously-polished asshole. Doctorow is a simpering fucktard who we'd all be better off without.

    Fuck him and his simpering SJW fan club who will breathlesssly suck up anything this fucking asswipe has to say.

    Oh, if only I had mod points, they'd be yours. Fuck Cory Doctorow, that fucking poser pukebag.

  6. Fuck Cory Doctorow on Cory Doctorow Talks About Fighting the DMCA (2 Videos) · · Score: 1

    Fuck this bullshit poser and his deliberately thick-thick-thick fake hipster glasses. Doctorow is an asshole that started off on Boing Boing, and then decided to fuck that site all to hell and back in the pursuit of money. He's a poser fucktard who rarely has anything even remotely interesting to say.

  7. ....apparently you can be penalized for creating a name before someone else thinks of it.

    And, you can have your property threatened by anyone who happens to want your domain name, regardless of the facts.

  8. Re:Obligatory reply to a vanillaJS post on To Learn (Or Not Learn) JQuery · · Score: 2

    Agreed. The site does do an unfair comparison, leaving out all of the benefits of something like jQuery. I've done plenty of projects where jquery sped things up and made it easy to manage. Doing them in native JavaScript would have been a nightmare and wasted a ton of time.

    ^^^^^ THIS, times a billion.

    Hosting your own libraries bypasses a slew of potential security holes. I never do it any other way, ever. I wish I points to mod you up. Maybe someday, lol.

    And he did it in assembly, on an Atari 800, blindfolded, in the dark, in a cage full of venomous snakes and sharks.

  12. Re:Learn jQuery on To Learn (Or Not Learn) JQuery · · Score: 1

    Bingo. I love jquery for several reasons, not the least of which is that it provides simple ways to do common things without having to cook it all myself over and over.

    Zero toolbars here, period. I can bloody well run a search without a toolbar feeding me craptastic consumer-oriented results.

    Oh, and BTW you Slashdot 'designers' -- is it possible for you to fix your CSS so the story icons don't sit on top of the fucking headline when my browser window isn't full-screen? Kthxbye.

    ^^^ THIS.

    Far too many people see something on facebook and act on it without the slightest bit of verification. Marriages break up, relationships blow up, petty jealousies run wild....and that's one reason I don't have a facebook account.
