    middle aged men can have hot flashes too

  2. Re:Thug culture is to blame. on Philadelphia Hackers and Others Offer Brotherly Love To Fallen Robot · · Score: 1

    You are funny, trying to justify the actions of savages who refuse to take responsibility for themselves and are essentially adult babies throwing a tantrum. No respect for themselves, for others, for rule of law, or their spawn. They are a lost cause

  3. Re:We need to use Rust NOW! on Critical BIND Denial-of-Service Flaw Could Take Down DNS Servers · · Score: 1

    :LISP can build, index, update and use GIANT HOSTS FILES

    You lose! Grovel like a worm before the Queen of Programming Languages(TM)!!

  4. Re:You know you're in America when... on Kentucky Man Arrested After Shooting Down Drone · · Score: 1

    some things are worth the use of firearms. This man's actions were correct. If the courts don't rule the right way then just keep a mask handy to use when shooting drones that are trespassing and peeping

    was it toe cheese of the more fungal or dead skin & oil variety?

  6. That's rich on Two Years Later, White House Responds To 'Pardon Edward Snowden' Petition · · Score: 1

    Coming from a government that does unconstitutional things against the people, hiding behind force and threat of force against innocents. Fuck off, Obama administration, you are not American, not legitimate, and not a government of a free people operating under the rule of law

  7. Re:Interstitial? on Google Studies How Bad Interstitials Are On Mobile · · Score: 1

    sure, also has meaning in crystallography. But never heard the term in the realm of browser display, it surely is marketing wankspeak

  8. Re: Looking more and more likely all the time... on German Scientists Confirm NASA's Controversial EM Drive · · Score: 1

    wrong, our law are absolutely incorrect, even in the realm where Newtonian physics should work. The orbits of stars in galaxies is one glaring example known since the 1930s. Our more useful laws are known to be WRONG

  9. Re:Yes, more people is better on Ask Slashdot: Everyone Building Software -- Is This the Future We Need? · · Score: 1

    that's not how it goes, sadly. Instead hyper-intelligent twats with no engineering ability nor common sense nor understanding of end user needs squat and crap in the open source and closed source pools and either render existing good software nearly useless, or displace the good with their diseased bloated wares that have shit for UI. E.g. GNOME3, Unity, systemd, Windows 8.x etc. and etc.

  10. Re: Looking more and more likely all the time... on German Scientists Confirm NASA's Controversial EM Drive · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You are very wrong, any competent physicist would tell you so. You have made a religion in your mind about science.

    We already know our models such as quantum theory and general relativity are incorrect; they break down in certain situations.

    We already know the useful "laws" we use are just approximations, e.g. ohm's law, hooke's law, boyle's law, etc.

    Consider this, the average one reaches 12 inches, but reach over 18 inches, and ones on the order of 24 inches (and over 60 lbs) are occasionally reported. No one knows how long they live, either, though in captivity over 30 years is common.

  12. Interstitial? on Google Studies How Bad Interstitials Are On Mobile · · Score: 2

    That word isn't in my vocabulary, but is that some kind of marketing wank's "web 2.0" shit?

  15. horrible thing to do on Tortoise Gets a new 3D Printed Shell After Forest Fire · · Score: 0

    A tortoise's shell needs to grow, else it will eventually maim then kill him. These "helpers" are making a huge assumption about the future, maybe it would have better to just euthanize "Fred"

  16. Re:im sure the news on Kepler 452b was grave. on NASA Spies Earth-Sized Exoplanet Orbiting Sun-Like Star · · Score: 1

  21. Re:Illumination wavelength on Bringing Back the Magic In Metamaterials · · Score: 1

    some viruses are "huge", Pandoravirus 1000nm, Megavirus chilensis 450nm.

    You should in theory be able to see those optically under 380nm violet light with a NA 1.6 lens

  22. Re:Slashdot No Longer For Geeks! on Bringing Back the Magic In Metamaterials · · Score: 2

    The largest viruses have 450 nm capsid diameter. Violet light of 380nm on a glass lens with numeric aperture of 1.6 gives Abbe limit of 240nm.

    Oops, maybe you better get a refund on your B.S. degree. Or maybe the B.S. means Bovine Shtuff?
