  1. How is this insightful? Tell me exactly what is tainted.

  2. What if you take your laptop out of your house?

  3. doh

  4. 1) Bring in old laptop sure to not be compatible
    2) Get free laptop
    3) Profit

  5. Re:MEh... on A Smaller Version of Raspberry Pi 3 Is Coming Soon (pcworld.com) · · Score: 1

    ok, how are you getting boxes of 10, and I cant get 1? Plus, isnt there a limit? Where you ordering from?

  6. From what I can gather, there is no game cartridge slot. Why? I want to be able to play my old games via hdmi. So, this is probably an emulator. Can you give it roms? Why not just plug the computer into hdmi if this is the case?

  7. Re:mainly for blu ray 4k / streeming 4k? on Sony Confirms It's Making a 'High-End PlayStation 4' With 4K and Richer Graphics (ft.com) · · Score: 1

    Keep in mind they have the luxury of subsidizing the extra hardware cost because hardware prices drop. They may eat the cost and not profit on the hardware for a year or two.

  8. Which is why im pretty pissed the Simpsons decided to no longer offer seasons on DVD/Bluray. Streaming only. Screw that.

  9. good? i guess.

  10. Thats not too extreme or anything

  11. win7 on Microsoft Auto-Scheduling Windows 10 Updates (tomshardware.com) · · Score: 1

    As a .net developer, I like windows 7. I didnt like the 8 or 10 interface. At home, I still use 7. This auto-upgrade nonsense will absolutely make me switch to Linux as my desktop again.

  12. Re:The experience of a movie threater? on 76% Of Netflix Subscribers Think Netflix Can Replace Traditional TV (cordcutting.com) · · Score: 1

    You forgot:
    -loud/annoying people
    -dirty/broken seats
    -smelly people
    -30 mins of commericals before the movie

  13. Chances are, this scumbag has cp on the drive. But let's say for this argument, that there is in fact none on the drive. But, he does have some personal pictures (perhaps of an affair), or some corrupt business dealings, etc. If he gives up the password, he would incriminate himself on other things, especially personally with his wife. So, withholding the password does not necessarily mean that he is guilty of the charge.

  14. Sorry, amazon has the patent on that

  15. leave it on Microsoft's 'Teen Girl' AI Experiment Becomes a 'Neo-Nazi Sex Robot' · · Score: 5, Insightful

    They should have left it online. Weak move removing it. Let's see if it learns not to be racist.

  16. I got the S4 years ago loving the fact that I could swap out the battery. You know what? Years later the original battery is going just as strong as when I bought it. I just ordered the S7. I'm not worried about the fixed battery. Worst case, it is possible to pull open the back cover and swap it, granted it probably wont be perfectly waterproof once you do that.

  17. Re:Awesome on Raspberry Pi 3 Rolls Out With Faster CPU, On-Board Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth · · Score: 1

    Looks like that only has 1 gpio. I need a io to activate the garage door switch, and then another to hook some kind of sensor to check the door state. Then times 2, because there are 2 doors. Then, i want to build a web interface to it. And I need wifi because the garage is separate. I think a PI zero would fit the bill nicely.

  18. The price is right. Its game over now to get literally anything online. I'm building an interface for my garage doors. Also, I still cant get my hands on a pi zero.

  19. Your point? on What Happens When Google Doc Credentials Are Leaked On the Dark Web? (csoonline.com) · · Score: 3, Informative

    So? Then dont leak personal details. Why wouldnt you expect people to try it?

  20. Re:My what? on Time Inc. Buys MySpace Parent Company Viant (theverge.com) · · Score: 2

    Lol, I just went there too. I think I still have a login so I clicked sign in, and they actually have a "sign in with facebook" option. It's sad, really.

    You guys never saw that simpsons episode?

    Thats why I do my really serious browsing in a new VM that is read-only. After, I delete the vm. Then light the computer on fire.

    Yeah, did you see Ant-Man? They scanned Michael Douglas in and created a younger version. Completely CGI, but I didnt even know until I watched the special features behind the scenes. Great movie, BTW.

  25. That's pretty sick.

    heh, i got it
