    Good news! I've heard Amazon will soon be selling diapers! ... not sure they'll have mouse-sized ones though.

    In Québec our "white label" products are actually "yellow label", called "no name" ("sans nom" in french).

    Not sure if they're available in the rest of Canada.

    As as with any generic products, some of them are excellent and better than known brands, some of them are just okay and some of them you just need to stay away from.

    I can't recall which version, but a Windows Home Edition did not allow you to even change the desktop wallpaper. I really thought it was user error at first.

  9. Why isn't it free to everyone? on Microsoft Adding More Ads To Windows 10 Start Menu (theverge.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    With stunts like that, pushing ads and apps on people and everything, why does it still cost something to get Windows 10?

    Put the damn ISO on your website, unlock the damn activation/serial/whatever thing and you'll get more users.

    Oh yeah? Well me and my friends had to play Doom while carrying the data packets by hand, in a snowstorm, both ways.

    The latency was excruciating.

  15. Re:GOT on Microsoft Kills Its Game-Building Platform Spark (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Some of us read comments at -1 because some moderators seem to think that an opinion different from theirs warrants a "-1, Troll" mod.

    Some -1 posts, however, really are spam. By allowing us to flag things as SPAM, it would automatically request a slashdot editor to verify the post to see if it's really SPAM or not.

  18. Re:GOT on Microsoft Kills Its Game-Building Platform Spark (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Can we add a "SPAM" moderation choice, that would send an email/something to the Slashdot admins to manually review and remove the posts in question?

    SPAM abuse could be controlled by freezing the account of anyone who falsely flags three things as SPAM.

    Why are ethical/white hat hackers not part of the solution? In what way are they prolonging problems?

    They're not the ones inventing problems or creating them, they're just finding them and telling companies about them.
