  1. Re:Hoth on Newly Spotted Frozen World Orbits In a Binary Star System · · Score: 1

    Fuck /. -- it removed the negative characters from my post WTF? Those numbers should read -352 F and -70 F. Why it stripped out the "" I do not know.

  2. Re:Hoth on Newly Spotted Frozen World Orbits In a Binary Star System · · Score: 1

    Considering the article states that this planet has an estimated surface temperature of 352 Fahrenheit, it would make Hoth seem like a tropical resort, considering warm blooded animals like Tauntauns were able to survive on the surface. Hoth would have been more like the Antarctic, around 70 Fahrenheit by comparison.

  4. Oh yeah, almost forgot... on Comcast Executives Appear To Share Cozy Relationships With Regulators · · Score: 1

    *Regulator hand Comcast a grimy, well used jar of Vaseline®* Them Tax Payers tend to clench up when you shove it in, so dab some of that on your rod and it's like riding a slip n' slide

  5. They'd be stumped more often on Use of Encryption Foiled the Cops a Record 9 Times In 2013 · · Score: 4, Interesting

    But so far, the only criminals using encryption are the smart ones who take precautions not to even become suspects in the first place. And just because the authorities were stymied by encryption, or that the suspects used encryption does not mean that the suspects were actually guilty of any crime. Personally, I'd much rather a few crimes go unsolved than live in an authoritarian Police State.

  6. What does this solve? on Chinese Company '3D-Prints' 10 Buildings In One Day · · Score: 2

    Seems they could have simply created some "molds" with a some 2x4s and a couple plywood sheets and just dumped the cement formula in to make the individual walls instead of this elaborate process. How has the process of making a cement slab been improved by using an expensive industrial grade 3D printer? Smells like "we did it because we could" rather than "doing it because you should".

  7. Re:Myths are socially hilarious on Alleged 'Bigfoot' DNA Samples Sequenced, Turn Out To Be Horses, Dogs, and Bears · · Score: 1

    Actually, they were Jews and considering they wrote about their GENOCIDE OF THE CANAANITES in their little book and are gleefully enacting Genocide of Canaan 2.0, plenty have died. Now be sure to show your sorrow for the suffering of the Jews at the Holocaust museum near you.

    Ever consider the fact that Bigfoot, werewolves and ghosts have the right NOT to be surveiled? I for one have encountered ghosts and aliens on a pretty regular basis, but unlike some people around here *cough*glassholes*cough* I respect their right to privacy and to not be recorded by my camera phone and posted to youtube.

  9. Re:Classic Obama on White House May Name Patent Reform Opponent As New Head of Patent Office · · Score: 2

    It's getting to the point where the US Citizenry will need to decide to accept to be held captive to the interests of a Corporate Oligarchy or go into active revolt against a Government that no longer sees them as actual citizens, but as the chattel of the "true citizens", the Corporate Personhoods of the Fortune 500. ObamaCare was the first step in forcing every American to buy goods and services from Corporate Cartels. Having Corporate Lobbyists oversee and regulate the industries meant to protect the American public from the Corporations is only a logical step on the way to a truly Captive Audience envisioned for the Future American Free Market Surveillance State.

  10. Re:Castle doctrine on What To Do If Police Try To Search Your Phone Without a Warrant · · Score: 1

    On one hand you sardonically belittle those who value their freedoms, on the other, your signature cites Eisenhower, one of the the last Presidents to truly care about the welfare and freedom of the people over Political and Corporate interests. Make up your fucking mind

  11. Re:It should be dead on Perl Is Undead · · Score: 1

    Frankly, this is the EXACT sort of shit coding that made me hate Perl and glad to see it go. Because I have seen so many examples of coding not too dissimilar to that. With Perl it has always seemed there is an ongoing contest among developers to see how arcane and unreadable they could make their code to show their "cred". Perl can go to hell, it's developer base can go fuck themselves and frankly the world will be a much better place as soon as that language is dead.

  12. Re:Not to be snarky on Teaching College Is No Longer a Middle Class Job · · Score: 1

    Lord knows Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs each rued the day they dropped out of College. If only they had bothered to graduate... they might have made trillions instead of mere billions.

  13. Re:Low Hanging Fruit on Will 7nm and 5nm CPU Process Tech Really Happen? · · Score: 1

    Came in here to say the same thing -- as if even getting to the nanometer level was somehow "low hanging fruit", never mind the current ability to fabricate at 14nm. Welcome to the brave new world of the gadget generation who take tech for granted yet are completely ignorant of the fundamentals behind it.

  14. Re:Universal Healthcare on 'Selfie' Helps Doctors Diagnose Mini-Stroke · · Score: 1

    I fail to see how this wouldn't be likely to happen under private insurance. A lot of Doctors tell people to go home to clear out their waiting rooms. Running tests may indeed be billable, but take time and require documentation.

  15. Re:Translation on TrueCrypt Author Claims That Forking Is Impossible · · Score: 1

    So you're saying "hey, wear the arm band, everyone else is". I'm not having any of it and am getting the fuck out while I can. Fortunately, there are countries will to let people legally immigrate without having to get married and once you have obtained citizenship, you can go to any US Embassy and formally renounce it. Seeing that the Gov't can have a drone shove a hellfire missile up your ass regardless of your citizenship, there's really no upside to having an American passport. In fact, it might just make you safer being a citizen of an Allied Country and NOT an American, since at least most US allies take a strong exception to US thuggishness when it comes to their Citizens. In the US, they just waive their hands and bandy about terms like "national security", "collateral damage" and "guilt by proximity"

    Seriously, people, save yourself the time. You'll just also get a letter from the NSA and either have to include their backdoor or drop the project.

    What really scares the shit out of me is that no one even seems to bat an eye at the unconstitutionality of these NSA letters that let the Government threaten, intimidate and interfere with the lives and business of law abiding Citizens. As an American, I am franticly working on fleeing this country that is rapidly becoming every bit of a Fascist Police State as Nazi Germany or the East Bloc. Secret Warrants, Secret Imprisonment, Secret Courts, Secret Lettre de Cachet from Gov't Organizations that will allow them to put you into the Secret Justice System and detain you indefinitely if you do not obey their directives. Why even bother voting? We no longer live in a free society. And the majority, even on slashdot don't give a fuck.

  17. Facking Idiots on Code Spaces Hosting Shutting Down After Attacker Deletes All Data · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Not providing for your own OFFLINE BACKUPS is a reckless oversight of such magnitude that I am entirely incapable of having sympathy for these asshats. We need a few examples such as these to serve as cautionary tales for those who think the Cloud is the answer to everything.

  18. Simple Solution on NRC Human Spaceflight Report Says NASA Strategy Can't Get Humans To Mars · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Militarize NASA and make the liberation of the Solar System from the enemies of FREEDOM priorities of National Security. At that point Congress will be tripping over themselves put the US an additional 15 Trillion in debt in order to invade Mars and install a puppet dictatorship that is friendly to US and Israeli interests.

    My point was that arrogant and abusive assholes are the real problem. If you find you actually have a bonafide MORON who is lacking in overall intelligence, then why were they hired to begin with?

    From the summary, it seems anyone who was at the wrong end of a bell curve should be the target of derision and abuse.
    So, a perfectly capable person who comes up short in any category is now an "idiot" and should be treated as trash.

    Frankly, that's a load of shit and any organization that employs people who see that as acceptable and fosters such an attitude deserves to die.
