  2. Re:I fried a bot on Ask Slashdot: What Is Your Most Awesome Hardware Hack? · · Score: 2

    Religious type here. Every Sunday I'm in church! And no, not [just] to meet women. Faith in a higher power is not precluded by the study of the world around us.

    Wait, what? When I first visited that page, I thought the tagline on the ticker read Global progress through technology. The world is over.

    The implications of this concept are giving me brain freeze!

    Is this a joke? Can I repeat it?

  10. Re:M? Really? on Facebook Is Now Working On Its Own Digital Assistant Called M · · Score: 1

    Isn't that what Negroponte predicted in "Being Digital," an intelligent advertising agent? That book was one of the best books I read in school, period.

  11. Drones flying under 350 feet on California Bill Would Dramatically Limit Commercial Drones · · Score: 1

    Drones flying under 350 feet are known to the state of California to cause cancer.

    sc config "RemoteRegistry" start= disabled

  13. Re:Now we need a NoHTML5Media plugin on A Farewell To Flash · · Score: 1

    Wow! So that explains my 4.0 GPA. Oh, wait... :(

  19. Re:What Experts can learn about reality on What Non-Experts Can Learn From Experts About Real Online Security · · Score: 1

    I've actually stopped using AV software on my personal computer systems. Sometimes I install a firewall, but AV hasn't done a blessed thing for me in over a decade. Maybe because I'm an experienced computer user (power user?; wouldn't say I'm an expert), I know how to avoid problems from sketchy websites and have changed my router passwords.

  20. Re:Old tech on What's the Oldest Technology You've Used In a Production Environment? · · Score: 1

    No, that makes it eccentric.

  21. Re:Illumination wavelength on Bringing Back the Magic In Metamaterials · · Score: 1

    I would think that removing pins would be more effective, in this case.

  24. It wasn't faked on 'Pluto Truthers' Are Pretty Sure That the NASA New Horizons Mission Was Faked · · Score: 2

    Only, it's a 3d-printed model of the dwarf planet, screenshotted in the Oculus Rift and saved as a lowly jpg for sharing on Facebook, which explains the jpeg plumes. Oh, so yeah, it was faked.

  25. Re:Poor Headline on The College Majors Most Likely To Marry Each Other · · Score: 1

    "Top 10 Most Incestuous College Majors" for even more clickbaitiness!
