  1. Re:Commercial use on Inside Germany's Plan To Kill Online Registrations (cnn.com) · · Score: 1

    Don't worry big German governmental IT projects are predistined to fail because the Germans are most tech-sceptical people after the Amish. Some universities still have student's ids printed on plain ass paper because having a smart card someone could track your eting habits at the cafeteria.

  2. Just the beginning on Did A Billionaire Harvest Big Data From Facebook To 'Hijack' Democracy? (theguardian.com) · · Score: 5, Informative

    and it won't stop as long as these "persuadable" voters make their decisions based on facebook posts.

    There will be no survivors

  4. Rami Malek made him do it on Wall Street IT Engineer Hacks Employer To See If He'll Be Fired (bleepingcomputer.com) · · Score: 1

    He probably watched Mr. Robot and thought he is as slick as the protagonist.

  5. They should make sure Facebook developers have a brain in the first place. Every piece software developed by FB is pure garbage. Is this some kind of lame attempt to get brainwaves data depending on what FB advertisement users are seing? Besides that BCI input devices have been around for years. He's trying so hard to be Elon Musk.

  6. Andrey Tarkovskiy's on Slashdot Asks: What's Your Favorite Sci-Fi Movie? · · Score: 1

    Stalker (1979)

  7. Good approach but on Facebook Targets 30,000 Fake France Accounts Before Election (go.com) · · Score: 1

    Not the real problem. The real problem are people who make their vote decision based on facts they get on Facebook posts.

  8. The should charge NYC cab prices.

  9. "Accident" waiting to happen on Let There Be Light: Germans Switch on 'Largest Artificial Sun' (theguardian.com) · · Score: 5, Funny

    "Hey Helmut I bet you can't last longer in there without sunscreen than on that beach in Spain last year." Helmut: "Hold mein bier."

  10. Slashdot is next.

  11. Because they see it coming. on Why Astronauts Are Banned From Getting Drunk in Space (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    A1:"I bet you can't take a butt naked selfie outside the station." A2:"Hold my beer" Although zero-G beer pong would be awesome.

  12. Alternative interpretation on Serious Computer Glitches Can Be Caused By Cosmic Rays (computerworld.com) · · Score: 1

    Only n00bs think it's a glitch...real programmers use butterflies. They open their hands and let their delicate wings flap once. The disturbance ripple outward, changing the flow of the eddy currents in the upper atmosphere. These cause momentary pockets of higher-pressure air to form, which act as lenses that deflect incoming cosmic rays, focusing them to strike the drive platter and flip the desired bit.

  13. As it's not toxic it should be safe to drink it? Maybe it's going to replace red bull.

  14. Re:Theory of continental drift on Scientists Discover Evidence of a 'Lost Continent' Under the Indian Ocean (earthsky.org) · · Score: 1

    You are probably a person who believes that the pyramids in Egypt and Mesoamerica were built by aliens because some crazy white people said so. If it's white its right, right?

  15. Grab them by the patent!

  16. Re:The end is near? on Scientists Marvel At 'Increasingly Non-Natural' Arctic Warmth (msn.com) · · Score: 1

    And how did I contradict you exactly? It was a reply to "while China India, Brazil and Al Gore game the system to their benefit just pisses people off". The US has the highest CO2 emission per capita in the world. Brazil etc. have a smaller CO2 emission per capita.

    In 'geologically' Earth is just a big rock in space. But where do these 'some people' go when the sea level rises or whole regions become inhabitable. Most countries have a hard time to even recieve a few refugees from Syria how are the going to manage millions of environmental migrants. The resource consumption by your so called 'everyday people' in the US and Europe is insanly high compared to those countries that will suffer most from global warming. In terms of carbon dioxide emissions per capita China, India and Brazil are far behind the US and Canada so dont't even start this. Or do you expect them to cut down their emissions so the 'first world' can keep their lifetyle. Scientists predicted the end of fossil fuels decades ago but the commercialization of alternative energy didn't really start until the mid 2000s. People are just too comfortable to change their consumption. If gas, electricity or red meat prices (yes beef production is a big factor) were twice as high they would think twice about their consumption. Overreacting may kill credibility but if you try to argue rationally 'everyday people' won't get it.

  18. It was actually a sarcastical reply to "The most worthless race is the human race. Genocide everything that shits." But the sarcasm was never strong with the anonymous coward crowd.

  19. The end is near? on Scientists Marvel At 'Increasingly Non-Natural' Arctic Warmth (msn.com) · · Score: 1

    Long story short. We're all fucked..despite what president Cheeto says.

  20. Is this a "all asians look the same" anecdote?

  21. What about birds? They shit too... from above. They deserve to get killed twice.

  24. A matter of point of view on Dropbox Kept Files Around For Years Due To 'Delete' Bug (bleepingcomputer.com) · · Score: 1

    A bug to the customers, a feature to the government.

  25. He wasn't arrested because he facilitated money laundring but because he didn't share with the thiefs in law.
