  1. Re:Semantic URLs on Regionally Encoded Toner Cartridges 'to Serve Customers Better' · · Score: 1

    I'm not even talking about POST parameters. Domain name: http://www.epson.com/
    Why is that even part of the URL? Useless: cgi-bin/
    That doesn't look like an online store page to me: Store/
    Who cares what language you're using on the server? Another useless part: jsp/
    Landing? What the hell is that supposed to tell me? Useless again!: Landing/
    The page name is descriptive enough, but there's a useless file extension?: ecotank-super-tank-printers.do

    The proper URL should be:
    http://www.epson.com/printers/...

    The URL says "super-tank" but the text on the page says "supertank". They didn't even get that part right, let alone the rest of the messed up URL.

    The previous message was sent from my 2010 Mac mini which has an nVidia 320m GPU. It wasn't even "good enough" when it was released.

    I'm sorry but someone with a Mac Pro doesn't have the right to talk about "stock hardware" being more than enough.

  4. Re:Looks like we have reached the inflection point on HooperFly is an Open Source, Modular Drone (Video) · · Score: 1

    To defend against infrastructure attacks, the government will put more drones in the sky for policing. And then we'll be off to the races. You will have hobbyists / malicious agenst trying to figure out how to make their drones stealthy. And then the government escalating on those. Counter-counter measures being developed. The whole thing will look like something that came out of a Spy vs Spy cartoon from Mad comics.

    Probably, but I'm still busy 3D-printing toner cartridges just so I can tell Xerox to fuck off.

  6. Re:no code linked on HooperFly is an Open Source, Modular Drone (Video) · · Score: 1

    Company's website? What website? Slashdot's main link is to Facebook. I'm sorry but Facebook is not the proper place to host an official company website.

    Yeah, well... I'm gonna go build my own toner cartridges, with blackjack and hookers.

    You forgot Epson*, dude! * note to the people in charge of the Epson website: that's one ugly URL. Don't you know about semantic URLs?

  11. Re:Sounds like an ad on Italian City To Dump OpenOffice For Microsoft After Four Years · · Score: 1

    My original comment was about the fact that the Italian city was switching to Office365, I wasn't talking about the reasons for it.

  12. Re:Question Mark on Air Traffic Snafu: FAA System Runs Out of Memory · · Score: 0

    Maybe because the general idea of the sentence is a question in itself but for yourself? I see plenty of worst mistakes all day long to start wondering about such details.

    Misspled words, people who cant use punctuation properly people who dont capitalize the first word in there sentences and people who dont know the difference between there and their.

    The previous sentence was self-referencing sarcasm.

    Not only should they be "capable" of managing memory in their code, it should be part of the software design itself.

    Well I'm assuming that it's true, of course. I may not like Microsoft much but we should be able to verify the information contained in that press release.

  19. Re:Sounds like an ad on Italian City To Dump OpenOffice For Microsoft After Four Years · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I didn't say that it didn't matter, I said that it was happening. The source of the news is irrelevant. You're right that the price of Office365 probably played a role but I'm not so sure it played a significant one. After all, Microsoft are competing against free.

    Microsoft press release or not, it's something that's happening.
