  1. Re:Archangel Micheal: Kneel before... apk on AVG Forces Chrome Extension On Users, Extension Is Woefully Insecure (google.com) · · Score: 1

    For fuck's sake, just die already. Go join ISIS or something more in tune with your fanaticism.

  2. Re:Remember that it's a disk RECOVERY key on Microsoft Has Your Encryption Key If You Use Windows 10 (theintercept.com) · · Score: 1

    I torrent every day (not really). I was just saying people think they don't break laws because they're not bad people and found another situation that might be understood better.

    Like, say, in a police raid.

    See, that's not how you should put, because people will think you want to break the law free of charge.
    You should say corporate espionage helped by the US government and have a few links ready. That'll get their attention.

  4. Re:Just do it on Ask Slashdot: How To Get Into Machine Learning? · · Score: 2

    Look at the competitions on Kaggle to see what people are up too.
    ML can be used to do OCR, detect diseases from scans or measurements, use sensor data to figure out preventive maintenance, optimize the navigation of websites, voice recognition, marketing (duh, but there's a lot to it), recommendation systems (like netflix and amazon), network analysis (social, electrical...).
    That's all I got right now, but there's more.

  5. Re:Unlike copyrights, patents expire. on Switzerland Moves Toward a Universal Phone Charger Standard (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    Patents schmantents. DRM can not be legally broken with or without them.

  6. Re:Your recommendation for a $1/mo host on AdBlock Plus Updates Acceptable Ads Policy · · Score: 1

    nearlyfreespeach.net, depending on how much traffic you have.

  7. Re:Self-fulfilling prophecy? on The Top Programming Languages That Spawn the Most Security Bugs (softpedia.com) · · Score: 1

    There's many bad decisions you can point at in PHP, but something that every first web tutorial for every language (probably) started with isn't one.

  8. Re:Why? on George Lucas: "I'm Done With Star Wars" · · Score: 1

    I thought Dune was a story of a single man and his multiple clones.

  9. Re: He's an Idiot. on GE CTO On Moving 9,000 Apps To the Public Cloud · · Score: 1

    Unless they go bankrupt for some reason, than it's a chain of dominoes imploding.

  10. Re:impressed again. on Bernie Sanders Comes Out Against CISA · · Score: 1

    The first link maybe, just maybe, has to do with the size and population of the US, and the second, if you bother to read the comments, is a non-story.

  11. Re: Weep for humanity. on Author Joris Luyendijk: Economics Is Not a Science (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Yes, you could be doing as well as Europe right now! Get a grip.

  12. Re:Benefit to end users? on Matthew Garrett Forks the Linux Kernel · · Score: 1

    It's not like they're the first ones either, remember Con Kolivas?

  13. Re:Carly & Islam on Carly Fiorina: I Supplied HP Servers For NSA Snooping · · Score: 1

    Na, I think the point is that she doesn't even know that much within her own area of study.

  14. Re:So much wrong with this on Lawrence Lessig Wants To Run For President So He Can Resign · · Score: 1

    When used at a proper time, like at the zero lower bound, it's the only thing that works, as seen by the Great European Recession Without End.

  15. Re:Ha! on Company Testing Standardized Salaries Is Struggling · · Score: 1

    First of, sorry for your loss.
    Secondly, you're a damn good person, thank you for making me feel less stupid for wanting to help people.

    You haven't kept up with EULA's, have you? It's in every piece of software for a few years now.

    I haven't read it, but the full explanation is on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

  18. Re:My solution on European Agreement Sets Up Third Greek Bailout · · Score: 1

    It reads like capitulation agreement and is probably worse than the treaty of Versailles. Might as well start a world war to get the debt forgiven at this point, no? /s
    Also, the "winning side" has no mandate or legitimacy to decide anything, let alone to politicize the ECB for six months to force the issue.
    It's a really sad state of affairs tat made me lose all hope in the EU. The sooner it collapses, the better, preferably before that next crash turns everything into chaos and before fascists are elected everywhere.

  19. Re:Brand owners should be prohibited.. on ICANN Asks FTC To Rule On .sucks gTLD Rollout · · Score: 1

    It's a free market, a for profit company like ICANN should be able to do whatever it wants to get money, and if you don't like it you should entrepeneur your own ICANN. /s

    Sure, it's illegal, if if there's no intention to cause harm to anyone, what's the point of severely punishing him?

    Specifically, you assume that people aren't motivated by money.

    Yes, the Americans seem to have changed a few meanings

    Sadly, they changed it for the rest of the world, too.

  23. Re:Always struggling with a Dodgy NVS mobile... on AMD Catalyst Linux Driver Catching Up To and Beating Windows · · Score: 1

    I've managed to have some stability with Optimus in OpenSuse, but then I can't figure out if steam launches games with the right card or not.

    Not to mention using Steam on PlayOnLinux... yeah, it's a pain.

  24. Re:Honestly the size of the book means nothing. on Ars: Final Hobbit Movie Is 'Soulless End' To 'Flawed' Trilogy · · Score: 1

    All movies need an inciting incident, an escalation, then a crisis and resolution.

    Boyhood doesn't. And the Before trilogy pretty much doesn't have it either, except at the very end.

    IBM sold them computers, so a fair bit.
