    We should ban life, then nobody will ever die.

  2. Re:Screen Saver on Samsung's New TVs Are Almost Invisible (qz.com) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    something like: http://astronaut.io/ (shows short clips from random youtube videos with low counts and names like DSC 1234 and IMG 4321)

  3. Re:so ok jail time for an trademark miss usage? on Electronics-Recycling Innovator Faces Prison For Extending Computers' Lives · · Score: 1

    No, it's jail time for the $700 000 that Microsoft pulled out it's collective ass. It is copyright infringement, can't let those evil pirates get away with that after all.

  4. Re:"Extending computers lives" on Electronics-Recycling Innovator Faces Prison For Extending Computers' Lives · · Score: 1

    Well he didn't sell the discs, but shipping 28 000 discs from China with Microsoft/Dell logos on them...

  5. "for sometimes."

    What are sometimes; oh, glorious editor?

  6. Maybe on Can A New Open Photo File Format Replace JPEGs? (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Maybe using JPEGs for the comparison images wasn't the best choice (at least I can't see much difference by the unnamed and HEIC).

  7. Probably depends on your OS as well (I think Linux only added it in 4.14?).

  8. PCID is supported on Westmere (2010) and up.

  9. Re:AM2+ cpus are quite old even intel system from on Microsoft's Meltdown and Spectre Patch Is Bricking Some AMD PCs (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    People have their processes, although going into services.msc and disabling the update service there would be the safer bet (like if there's an update to update the update service).

  10. Re:better than getting sued on America's Doctors Are Performing Expensive Procedures That Don't Work (vox.com) · · Score: 1

    something something lawyers and liability

    (unfortunately)

  11. "By The Editorial Board" on Google Works With Hotels To Hurt Travel Competition (wsj.com) · · Score: 1

    That isn't a report, it's an editorial.

    It's Rupert Murdoch being pissy at Google...

  12. Re:Not buying it now! on Security Firm Keeper Sues News Reporter Over Vulnerability Story (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    I went with Password Safe for the ease with which I could use my Fido key with it.

    That said, if I'd seen this article before I would have been less inclined to try it out, but now I certainly wouldn't use it.
    If you can't be bothered to fix that sort of vulnerability for 16 months till it makes headlines, and then whip out the lawyers..The assumption is a crusty surface with smegma oozing below.

  13. Plexamp is 45MB
    Winamp is 10MB

    But fuck it I got Foobar2000 (4MB)

  14. Re:Better Off Ted on What's The Best TV Show About Working in Tech? (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 1

    I'm saddened it's only mentioned this far down.

  15. Re:Humans aren't animals? on Robots Are Being Used To Shoo Away Homeless People In San Francisco (qz.com) · · Score: 1

    Guess it depends if Knightscope offers insurance or has it built into the rental price.

  16. Re:Humans aren't animals? on Robots Are Being Used To Shoo Away Homeless People In San Francisco (qz.com) · · Score: 1

    I'd imagine that'd be an issue for the rental company, not the one doing the renting.

  17. Re:Many veterans end up homeless on Robots Are Being Used To Shoo Away Homeless People In San Francisco (qz.com) · · Score: 1

    No; a couple means one or two. A few means three or four.

  18. Re:Japan just has lots of above-ground power lines on Why Is Anime Obsessed With Power Lines? (atlasobscura.com) · · Score: 1

    Aboveground is cheaper to fix after an earthquake

  19. The video may not be copyright infringing, but I recall Blizzard making claims cheat tools are.
    Maybe momma shouldn't have written a letter admitting her little shithead was using a cheat tool...

    I don't really care who loses, this one's fun all around :)

  20. Re:With all that money on Mozilla Revenue Jump Fuels Its Firefox Overhaul Plan (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    For now you can use the developer edition and enable legacy extensions (for now).

  21. Re:An anecdote on An Unconscious Patient With a 'DO NOT RESUSCITATE' Tattoo (nejm.org) · · Score: 1

    Unless the son had power of attorney or Dr. Z had previously (legally) written his wishes down, then the hospital didn't want to get sued?

    My mom had a no treatment only comfort wish that was respected.

  22. Re:Vendor junkware is never high-quality on HP Quietly Installs System-Slowing Spyware On Its PCs, Users Say (computerworld.com) · · Score: 1

    You can use an autohotkey script to control all those HP buttons.

  23. Sorry for lying to your customers?

    That said; it isn't like other MMOs don't have the diminishing returns system in place as well, wonder why they intentionally hid it?

  24. French did a nice ad

    http://www.lefigaro.fr/actuali...
    an anti-smoking group launched a poster campaign which links the use of tobacco by teenagers, both male and female, to the performing of oral sex on an older man.

  25. Re:I still keep locate32 installed on New Windows Search Interface Borrows Heavily From MacOS (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    The search interface that comes with Directory Opus does that and more (you can setup advanced filters and save them).
