  1. Maybe because Hollywood is in the US....

  2. Re:The 600-Series were easy to spot. on US Army 'Will Have More Robot Soldiers Than Humans' By 2025, Says Former British Spy (express.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    I can just picture an entire platoon of robots stumbling and falling on their faces to the tune of "Yakkety Sax"...

  3. Re:Dump channels on Television Needs To Be Reinvented, Says Apple SVP (businessinsider.com) · · Score: 1

    Sometimes I *LIKE* to watch shows that my TiVo doesn't think I'll like. This is how you get interested in new shows. If you constantly watch Action/Adventure films, the technology may never recommend that one really good drama that's on tonight. You will miss out on it.

  4. Re:Alternatively... on Television Needs To Be Reinvented, Says Apple SVP (businessinsider.com) · · Score: 1

    What book is published about the current Duke basketball game?

  5. Re:Only in Canada, eh? Pity. on All the Good Netflix Movies Are in Canada and Brazil (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 1

    Ironically, a lot of good Sci-fi series are filmed in Canada!

  6. Re:Obligatory All your Base reference on Samsung Forced YouTube To Pull GTA 5 Mod Video Because It Showed Galaxy Note 7 As Bomb (redmondpie.com) · · Score: 1

    What you say?

  7. The larger capacity phone has to have faster storage because there is just so much of it!

  8. Crazy on Czechs Arrest Russian Hacker Wanted By FBI (go.com) · · Score: 1

    When the Russian hacker was arrested, he donned a pair of goggles and said "Safety is number one priority."

  9. Re:This rant left me feeling...deflated on Patriots Coach Bill Belichick on Microsoft Surface: 'I Just Can't Take It Anymore' (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    Panasonic could make a killing if they gave the coaches TOUGHBOOKS instead.

  10. If they don't have all the relevant info on the device, what do they need it for?

    Candy Crush Saga!

  11. Not to mention all the "Hidden API's" scattered throughout Windows. That doesn't seem really open to me.

  12. Re:Better idea on Amazon Showcases Twitch With a Massive Free Videogame (latimes.com) · · Score: 1

    I had no idea that William Shatner had a slashdot account!

  13. Re:Not the greatest analogy on Non-Cable Internet Providers Offer Faster Speeds To the Wealthy (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    So to continue the water/internet analogy:

    You would get internet packets that aren't even meant for you, and that you can't use. For some reason, this would make me more angry than just having a slower speed.

  14. ...and it's RED because it heard you call it that, and it's blushing!

    It's actually called a TRACKPOINT. Conversely, the "touchpad" is referred to as a GLIDEPOINT.

  15. Re:"Proof" required for the full payment on You Can Now Claim Your Cash In the PS3 'Other PS3' Settlement (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    How do you "PURCHASE" a free OS?

  16. Re:BFD on RIAA Seizes Wrong MP3Skull Domain (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 1

    Aside from this exact case, we really haven't heard about the RIAA doing anything nasty for months - maybe even years.

  17. "Opponents" on Dutch Net Neutrality Law Goes Too Far Say Critics (telegeography.com) · · Score: 3, Informative

    In order to tell if this is a realistic complaint, or just some crazy whining, we need to know exactly who these "opponents" are.

  18. And while you're at it, Free Mars!

  19. Where is the common sense? on US Military Is Looking At Blockchain Technology To Secure Nuclear Weapons (qz.com) · · Score: 2

    If you don't want a jailbreak, don't connect the cell door locks to the internet.

    If you don't want a nuclear war, don't connect your launch controls to the internet.

    Why do I even have to say this?

  20. Re:What Will They Be Named? on Amazon Eyes Its Own Convenience Stores In Addition To Drive-Up Grocery Sites (geekwire.com) · · Score: 1

    Or how about "Amazon Now"?

  21. Re:What the actual fuck on Sean Parker Contributes $9 Million As States Push To Legalize Marijuana (gazettenet.com) · · Score: 1

    For a moment, I thought the article was referring to Sean Murray. Now *THAT* would explain a lot.

    What you consider "Interruptions", are actually "Solutions" to the people who bother you. Guess what? It's the 21st century. You will *HAVE* to work with people. Deal with it.

  23. Re:Bizarre and nonsensical summary as usual. on After 22 Years, 386BSD Gets An Update (386bsd.org) · · Score: 2

    Maybe now it runs on a 386SX....

    Easy. Bend it.

    Your iPhone is a very expensive piece of precision computing technology. Put it in a hard case, and DON'T put it in your back pocket!

  25. Re:But on Microsoft Is Redesigning the Paint App For Windows 10 (theverge.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    Don't worry. We all understand that as technology improves, and programs start to do amazing things, there will still always be people with no talent.
