  1. Wow ...old story .... on Berkeley Breathed Revives Bloom County Comic Strip After 25 Years · · Score: 0

    Did you know Kennedy's been shot?

  2. Re:(URGENT REQUIREMENT IN DETROIT!!!!!, etc) on Want 30 Job Offers a Month? It's Not As Great As You Think · · Score: 1

    Lighten up Francis.

  3. Re:RTFA on Want 30 Job Offers a Month? It's Not As Great As You Think · · Score: 1

    Any search of how to filter out the "via" proxy on Gmail yields the same thing, it can't be done, which is something that I have scanned for first hand. At least this guy is offering a solution. Your contributions by comparison only smack of petty jealousy. Perhaps you should be the one growing up.

  4. Re:If SPAM is a problem, you aren't meant for IT on Want 30 Job Offers a Month? It's Not As Great As You Think · · Score: 1

    You can't filter the "via" on Gmail.
    Moron.

  5. Re:RTFA on Want 30 Job Offers a Month? It's Not As Great As You Think · · Score: 1

    As long as it works, who cares? Seriously. What I discovered, especially about jobdiva was that you can't filter it through gmail no matter what and they have about the best spam filters going IMHO. Sounds like some sour grapes because you didn't get a slashdot link. Wahhhhh....

  6. Re:Enjoy it while it lasts on Want 30 Job Offers a Month? It's Not As Great As You Think · · Score: 1

    I'm in the DC area, so no, recession doesn't matter here since it's all government.

  7. Here's an inconvenient truth.... on Want 30 Job Offers a Month? It's Not As Great As You Think · · Score: 1

    I get recruiting spam at my dedicated dice.com email account (a sister site to slashdot). Awkward.

  8. Job Diva is the worst........also lay off Detroit on Want 30 Job Offers a Month? It's Not As Great As You Think · · Score: 2

    Job Diva is the WORST of all. Hell they don't even hide that they use a harvester. Just Google them and there are numerous tales of their horrific nonstop spam. I get Detroit (which is a fine city IMHO), Fort Wayne, Billings and every other place I'd never move. Bravo to these guys for finally doing something, I'm signing up now.

  9. Probably a safe bet.... on Researchers Discover SS7 Flaw, Allowing Total Access To Any Cell Phone, Anywhere · · Score: 1

    that NSA has known about it and been exploiting it whenever possible.

  10. So really what's happening is that... on Google Changes 'To Fight Piracy' By Highlighting Legal Sites · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Google isn't going to change anything, just charge legal sites to place their ads on piracy searches.

    Good on you Google for exploiting this for profit. 'Murika!

  11. Perl: TMTOWTDI on Ask Slashdot: What Are the Strangest Features of Various Programming Languages? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I used to think that Perl's feature of "There's More Than One Way To Do It" was great until I had to start modifying and maintaining the code of other developers, (several over the years). 20+ years I've been with Perl and I gotta say that through the years this has probably caused me more frustration than anything. Python, comparatively speaking, is a dominatrix and I'm starting to enjoy "There's Only One Way To Do It".

  12. Crybaby tactics.... on FCC Warned Not To Take Actions a Republican-Led FCC Would Dislike · · Score: 1

    warned the (Democrat-led) FCC to not do anything that a future Republican led FCC would dislike

    Part of being the party in power is that you get to do shit that the other party doesn't like. You seriously think when Republicans were in power that they would have done the same? I think not......

  13. Comcast will keep charging for modem rentals on Comcast Drops Spurious Fees When Customer Reveals Recording · · Score: 1

    Got my own Morotola Surfboard Xmas 2013. Comcast still charged me every month until I caught it on my August 2014 bill. They credited me the 7.00 per month when I asked them "so how long have you knowingly been billing me for this?"

  14. Don't forget to sue this site ... on Lionsgate Sues Limetorrents, Played.to, and Others Over Expendables 3 Leak · · Score: 1

    This site also makes torrents available. You can get the Expendables torrent here

  15. Why not? Learn from Verizon.. on Aereo Embraces Ruling, Tries To Re-Classify Itself As Cable Company · · Score: 2

    The broadcasters are not happy with this move, of course, claiming that Aereo should not be allowed to flip-flop on how it defines itself.

    Verizon has been on a tear to get itself reclassified as a common carrier for a while.

    Loopholes: not just for big companies anymore.

  16. Thanks for the stock tip! on Barnes & Noble To Spin Off Nook Media, Will Take It Public · · Score: 1

    Now I know another stock to short.

  17. If you get the NSL, can you consult your attorney? on TrueCrypt Author Claims That Forking Is Impossible · · Score: 1

    Hi folks, I have wondered about this.... If you have a product like TrueCrypt and get a National Security Letter telling you that you can't talk about it, does that include your attorney? I seem to remember that someone decided to sue NSA over this... Just curious...

  18. Don't cry for Eric... on House Majority Leader Defeated In Primary · · Score: 2

    You can be positive that K Street and its myriad of lobbying firms will be more than happy to employ him.

  19. It's just proof positive.... on The Ethics Cloud Over Ballmer's $2 Billion B-Ball Buy · · Score: 2, Insightful

    that no matter what, ** SOMEONE ** is gonna bitch about ** SOMETHING ** no matter what happened. Can't please all the people all the time.

  20. Of course they're aren't going to admit it..... on UPS Denies Helping the NSA 'Interdict' Packages · · Score: 1

    since the NSA also happens to slap gag orders on everyone too. Pointless.

  21. Reminds me of the airline industry.... on Report: Verizon Claimed Public Utility Status To Get Government Perks · · Score: 1

    They classify themselves as either a "commodity" or as a "service" depending on what they want to take advantage of.

  22. As always follow the money.... on Who Helped Kill Patent Troll Reform In the Senate · · Score: 1

    According to opensecrets.org Patrick Leahy -D(umbass) took $572,000 from Lawyers and Law Firms in 2014 alone. In his career from 1989 - 2014, he's taken $1.5 million. The United States of America: best government money can buy.

  23. Here's the news story I want to see.... on Australian Exploration Company Believes It May Have Found MH370 Wreckage · · Score: 1

    In light of MH 370, all aircraft are required to stream their black box and GPS data into the cloud. It's amazing how in this day and technological age that this can actually happen.

  24. Makes sense.... on If Ridesharing Is Banned, What About Ride-Trading? · · Score: 1

    If Seattle is anything like New York they make a ton of money on taxi medallions. Less taxis, less revenue. :-(

  25. You're outraged. Now what? on A Look at the NSA's Most Powerful Internet Attack Tool · · Score: 2

    What I have noticed is that there is a story in the media every damn day about the over reach of NSA and arghh..people are outraged. Oh it's horrible, etc etc. Amazingly enough, no one seems to want to do anything about it. Where are those stories? Where is the demand for congressional oversight? We get the NSA we deserve because we the people are doing nothing to reign them in.
