  1. Re:i am disapointed on Microsoft Unlocks Framerates For Smoother Gameplay On Windows 10 (pcper.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    I let Microsoft update my computer to Windows 10 but that didn't even upgrade my laserjet into a 3D printer. Lame.

  2. There was also a robot fight in Space Quest III, Nuke'm Duke'm.

  3. There's no silly "file explorer" problem on iOS, because we can't access files! /joke

  4. Re:Skynet? on 'Technology Will Replace the Need For Big Government' (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    On the other hand, the total I.Q. of all the people working in the government means that we're much closer to replacing them with A.I. than we thought.

  5. Re:Vimeo Guidelines rule out several uses on Amazon Goes After YouTube With New Online Video Posting Service (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    You mentioned plural "more options out there".

    I'm not into posting videos on the Web, so while I'm pretty sure there's more out there than YouTube, Vimeo and Vine, I can't really name any without searching.

  6. They're going to start selling things over the Internet because they heard about another company that already does this, called "Amazon" or something.

  7. What about Vimeo? on Amazon Goes After YouTube With New Online Video Posting Service (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    There's more options out there than "YouTube or nothing".

  8. Apart from the cost of buying the car itself, the green alternatives are usually barely more expensive than fossil fuels. And for electric cars, they're cheaper in the long run.

  9. Re: subduction, try it, its free! on Five Solomon Islands Disappear Into The Pacific Ocean As A Result Of Climate Change (go.com) · · Score: -1, Troll

    AC is right. AGW is not real, one plus one equals three, god created everything and systemd is better than Arduino.

  10. The idea is that if you increase the taxes on something that's destroying our planet, the green alternatives will become cheaper than oil by default and people will be forced to make the right choice.

  11. Well, to be honest I don't like trailers very much, tent trailers doubly so. Nothing beats a truck camper because backing up with a trailer is a lot of trouble.

  12. Re:Win 10 Upgrade is NOT free. on Microsoft: Windows 10 Will Remain Free For People With Accessibility Needs (betanews.com) · · Score: 1, Interesting

    If you want proof that Windows 10 is not free: try to upgrade a computer that is still running Windows XP.

    And yes, for those who like to nitpick arguments to death, that computer is more than capable of running Windows 10. It's called a custom build.

    WTF is Amurika? I thought it was Amedica!

    Wow, here's a virtual +5 Funny to you too!

    Best play of words I've read in a very long time. Virtual +5 Funny to you, my good sir.

  19. Re:Stupid people punishing smart people on Airline Delays Flight Over Passenger's Suspicious Math Equations (usnews.com) · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Ours is a world in which football players, reality TV stars and talentless singer bimbos earn hundreds of times more than Nobel prize-winning scientists, and represent what young people aspire to become when they grow up.

    I keep telling people that Idiocracy is a documentary from the future but nobody believes me.

  20. Re:Meanwhile in Canada... on Amazon Bows To Pressure To Bring Same-Day Deliveries To Poor Areas (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    I never pay for "next day delivery" because that could never happen in my small, far away town.

    "Same day delivery" sounds like either a miracle or a lie.

  21. Re:David Needle, Amiga Hardware Designer on Legendary Sound Designer Jory Prum Passes Away At 41 (designingsound.org) · · Score: 1

    The Amiga is much more complex than a C64, too.

    Amiga, Atari ST, Mac, PC.

    It's weird that the two best ones are gone and the two crappy ones are the only ones left.

  22. Re:MP3, AAC, AVC, and HEVC have a proprietor on Streaming Surpasses CD Sales At Warner Music (ft.com) · · Score: 1

    Still, it's not "Apple's codec" at all, which was my point.

  23. Re:We should never expect or accept tracking on Ask Slashdot: Should I Expect Tracking When Subscribing To News Sites? · · Score: 1

    My biggest problem with all that automated tracking is that they're just playing a guessing game to try and find out which topics interest me, but they always pick up 95% of crap that I have either zero interest in, or that I'm completely against.

    I wish I could just tell them what my interests really are and be done with it. I've seen that stupid "Helen has a secret" banner so many times but I never understood why they show that to me. I don't care what she does and I've never even watched her show in my life.

  24. Re:David Needle, Amiga Hardware Designer on Legendary Sound Designer Jory Prum Passes Away At 41 (designingsound.org) · · Score: 1

    The Amiga truly was ahead of its time.

    And now in 2016 we can emulate the Amiga on a $5 Raspberry Pi zero which is smaller than a credit card!

    Isn't progress amazing?

  25. Live long and prosper.
