  2. Re:Apple Mail is the best on Slashdot Asks: Which Is Your Favorite Email Client? · · Score: 1

    I don't know if it's the best, but it's more than good enough that I never had to search for alternatives.

  5. Mac hardware engineering? on Tesla's Engineering Chief Takes Leave of Absence (wsj.com) · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    The hiring of Mr. Field from Apple, where he was vice president of Mac hardware engineering

    Everything went downhill since 2014... is Elon Musk to blame for the lack of useful Mac updates?

    That's nothing compared to my Canadian fifty-two-weeks sabbati... oh wait, I got no job.

    Bobby Bicycles? Hey, I know that guy!

  9. Non-functional bikes? on Hacker Shuts Down Copenhagen's Public City Bikes System (bleepingcomputer.com) · · Score: 1

    The company is holding a "treasure hunt," asking users to hunt down and identify non-functional bikes.

    I'm sorry if I don't know anything about Bycyklen, but how are the bikes "non-functional"? A bike is a bike, isn't it?

  10. Re:Gives a nice "movie plot" threat! on Boston Dynamics' SpotMini Robot Dog Will Go On Sale Next Year (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Joke's on you, the terrorists will attach backward paws to the robot so you'll only be able to track it back to the targeted area.

    Nope. Those are reserved for robot sharks, available in 2026.

    Your hobby shop drone could probably not even withstand the rocket liftoff, never mind the rest of the trip and the landing.

  16. Re:MS Works? on Microsoft Works To Port Ubuntu To Windows ARM (neowin.net) · · Score: 1

    I agree, english-style titles are annoying and make comprehension harder than it should be.

  17. There's already plenty of crypto-currencies out there, some are even targeted toward social networks usage such as Reddcoin.

  18. Re:Easy to stall this threat via hosts... apk on Malicious Chrome Extensions Infect Over 100,000 Users Again (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    shouldn't that be 127.0.0.1 ?

  19. Re:Lacking empathy == dangerous on Ask Slashdot: How Would a Self-Aware AI Behave? (slashdot.org) · · Score: 1

    Should we reclassify humans that lack empathy as non-humans? The problem is, it would take someone like that to pass the law.

    It would never happen since people in charge would not want to classify themselves as non-human and it would also scare me because it would prove the people in charge should never have been in the first place.

    How the hell do you evade taxes anyway? Do you wait until they're catching up to you on the highway and you suddenly veer off the next exit?

  24. Re:So... on 'Yes, Pluto Is a Planet' (sfgate.com) · · Score: 0

    And here I thought Pluto was a dog. Or a philosopher. Oh wait, maybe he's a dog philosopher, or even a dwarf philosopher who has a pet dog?
