  2. Even countries with universal healthcare systems don't always cover everything. In Canada, dental isn't covered by the governments.

    I need money to buy Bitcoins.

  4. Re:Anything similar for PS2? on Hobbyist Turns Nintendo 64 Console Into Nintendo Switch Dock (polygon.com) · · Score: 1

    A slim PS2 would make a nice case for a RetroPie console.

    How about leaving Paint alone (2D editing) and create something else instead of cramming 3D editing into Paint?

  6. Re:Flash killed flash. on What Killed Adobe Flash? (daringfireball.net) · · Score: 1

    Saying Flash is/was slow on OS X/macOS is an understatement. I once had a so-called web designer tell me that "Macs suck because Flash is slow on Macs". What an Idiot.

    Don't worry, Windows 10 is giving you plenty of work.

    Microsoft Paint now lets people create models in 3D.

    That's as stupid as buying iPhone apps from iTunes or making a voice call from FaceTime.

  10. And turtles. Especially the teenage mutant ninja type.

  11. Paleontology has no such value, no matter how much you'd like to pretend otherwise. It is a waste of resources.

    Those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it.

  12. You could always watch dinosaurs for yourself and see if you don't learn anything from them.

    You know what's coming tomorrow, you've known and waited for it for months now.

    We did?

    Samsung's 2017 flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S8, will be officially announced [...]

    Oh, another shiny new widget version +1 is being released. Most of us don't care enough to even know about new releases anymore. Android, iPhone, whatever. They're all overpriced spying-on-yourself devices.

  14. Re:that's the entire point of facebook on Facebook Copied Snapchat a Fourth Time, and Now All Its Apps Look the Same (recode.net) · · Score: 1

    A lot of /. users love announcing that they avoid it (just like cable-cutters won't shut up about life without TV)

    What a coincidence that you mention this! I haven't had cable TV for over a decade!

  15. I pay under $400/month for my 5-rooms apartment. Small town in Canada.

    "Soy based plastic"? You mean making plastic from plants?!

    Stop your nonsense.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go 3D-print something out of PLA.

  19. Re:Private Offices on Ask Slashdot: What's the Best Working Environment For a Developer? · · Score: 2

    Add a "no radio/music/etc unless you wear headphones" rule. A private office is useless if people are allowed to pump noise through them.

    Have you contacted Elon Musk, or has he already contacted you?

    Zorgonians have nothing to do with this problem.

    Korkanians, on the other hand...

  22. So, you think his question isn't goodenough? It's one thing when people start complaining about SWJ or whatnot, but your point of view is badenough that it makes me cringe.
