  1. Re:Did you expect a different result? ~nt~ on Joking About Giving Money To ISIS Can Cost You Money (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Seriously. The policy is stupid but how hard is it not to say completely stupid shit like that for no reason (apart from fucking with a perfectly innocent person monitoring the queue)?

    It's a financial transaction. Not a post on Slashdot.

    Perhaps think a LITTLE harder?

    No. Thanks.

  3. Or I just like playing AAA games.

    No I'm not going to play "Tux" to make a point. That point will never be heard.

    I have a power bill to pay.

    Tough shit for you. Based on your other comment about penis size, I'm sure you're just a joy to be around. I leave MULTIPLE computers on at all times, and my power bill is lower where I live now than it has ever been. If you can't afford to do that, it's not really relevant to the discussion. Nobody Cares.

    No, he has the right of it. Polite society has rules. If you expect to enjoy a night out without getting your teeth knocked in, you obey them.

    Your right to free speech/action ends where the person you offends' fist begins.

  7. Well, after the hot war of 2018 it will be about 70 more years before more textbooks are printed, so perhaps.

    I like turn based strategy. I don't have the attention span or reflexes for RTSes any more. Of course I waited for Civ: BE to be on a fairly steep discount, but I quite liked it.

    I suspect that if OP didn't want or use smart phone features, being able to see the screen in direct sunlight wouldn't be an issue.

    I haven't regularly used a phone of any kind for voice communication in many years. It's really not the primary use for most people anymore.

    So your solution is just accept a fascist demagogue who will alienate us to just about every other nation on the planet, and quite probably get us all killed in a nuclear war within 2 years?

    Hell I'd vote for C'thu'lu over Trump. At least you know he loathes you and is going to destroy you (well thinking people know that about Trump too, but I digress).

    I'd rather it was Sanders, but I'll take Clinton over any of the Republican candidates (Well Kasich seems like an OK guy, but he stands less of a chance than Sanders does).

    Sure, if you care about FOSS support more than you do actually working with games without blowing up. I no longer do. All I care about is that the hardware that I buy is going to give me the best bang for my buck when I play games on my PC, and not blow the fuck up.

    You wanted to get noticed, and you did.

    This isn't exactly a news story. If you're that public about your beliefs, you should expect that people know about it.

    I didn't even know taht the app launcher was a thing but I'll take a browser that I can install ad and script blocking on over one that I can not.

    Wow. Such solid business decisions. Apple doesn't even know you and your little custom PC boutique exists. They don't care about any business you might cost them. The only thing you're doing is alienating potential customers.

    Enjoy your pending bankrupcy, dolt.

  17. Re:In practice on Ask Slashdot: Is It Time To Shrink the Ethernet Connector? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I live in a high rise apartment. There are no less than 200 Wifi networks within range of my unit. There is a FUCKTON of interference. Connections themselves may be somewhat reliable, but lag and pausing and delays are inevitable. There's not a single channel that can reliably be used. There is a tremendous amount of bandwidth connection, and there's no reasonable way to eliminate it.

    For anything requiring reliable, fast, usable connections; gaming, media streaming, etc, I use a wired connection. There is no substitute in an environment like this.

  18. Re:Not everyone uses Facebook or WhatApp on Facebook and Whatsapp Discontinue Support For Blackberry (canadajournal.net) · · Score: 2

    And therefore not worth you reading OR commenting on, yes?

    I think the point of "interest" here is that Blackberry is losing another significant point of support from an application that a great number of people DO use, whether or not you or I do.

    I think continuing to belabor the fact that Blackberry is effectively a dead platform, and that widespread abandonment by app developers is only going to accelerate, may be a bit redundant at this point.

    I suppose if I really thought a story shouldn't run, I'd deal with that while it was still pending, as much as meta-moderating the firehose (or whatever that process is called) has any effect.

    Simply chiming in with "I'm too cool for this story" is just noise though.

  19. That bug report is an excellent example of how Canonical's process will bog down on trivial things and cause greater execution to be missed. To doggedly refuse to move because "reasons" and then suggest that people simply use other interfaces... well it's no wonder Unity got so little actual adoption.

    Why would I want my workstation to have the same interface as a netbook that hasn't been useful for 5 years, or a phone that should have come out 5 years ago but didn't because of endless dithering and back and forth? (and I"m sure "reasons")

    Here's an idea. If you don't like a story, don't fucking READ it. No one is holding a gun to your head.

    Holy fucking shit, is everyone this retarded?

    The idiotic holy war against Timothy has been going on since back when Cmdr. Taco was around. Didn't work on him, won't work on anyone.

    Accept that not every story is going to be your cup of tea and fucking move on, like an adult. It's not like you can't look at the summary and figure it out.
