  1. this is all wrong on Sports Bars Changing Channels For Video Gamers · · Score: -1

    I come to slashdot to get AWAY from r/starcraft.

  2. wrong numbers on Why You Shouldn't Panic Over Mac Malware · · Score: -1

    on the smug factor, macs are a far more tempting target than android (linux) phones

  3. really guys? really? on Smithsonian Unveils 'Art of Games' Voting Results · · Score: -1

    no earthbound or chrono trigger? really????

  4. how strange on Sandy Bridge Motherboards Dissected, Compared · · Score: -1

    Cause I just happened to be looking at AMD for my next big upgrade!

  5. Sorry. on Military Set To Develop Smart, Robotic Cameras · · Score: -1

    Human level vision requires human level intelligence, which can't (afaik) be ordered up on demand.

    we are dust in the wind, dude

  7. Re:Skinner! on Polar Flares To Be Visible Tonight · · Score: -1

    ahh, yes?

  8. Concepts on How Can an Old-School Coder Regain His Chops? · · Score: 0, Insightful

    To stay on top now, you have to be aware of the advanced concepts coming out of functional programming languages. But moreover, you have to get good enough with those languages that it starts to effect how you write java/c#/c++ etc etc. I recommend getting down with Haskell or lisp and choose some industrial languages after you're comfortable with them.

  9. other implications? on Sun's Dark Companion 'Nemesis' Not So Likely · · Score: -1

    what does this say for the lack of life on other planets? you'd think by now *something* would have spread to another inner solar system planet... perhaps they also get wiped just like the earth?

    way to make backups xDDDDDDDDDDD

  12. Not surprised on Craig Mundie Wants "Internet Driver's Licenses" · · Score: -1

    After reading in the times today about the abysmal culture at MS, shit like this coming from an exec of any kind does not surprise me. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/04/opinion/04brass.html?th=&emc=th&pagewanted=all

  13. really slashdot? on Why Charles Stross Hates Star Trek · · Score: -1

    this has been front page in reddit/r/scifi for days now. you need to update your model please

  14. missing out on Updated Slashdot Story Submission Bookmark · · Score: -1

    you guys are really missing out on moving to the model being perfected by reddit/digg etc etc. sure slashdot was the first but the moderated content is really turning people away from this site as of late.

  15. come on nintendo on Nintendo Releases Wii Browser For Free, Updates Flash · · Score: 0, Insightful

    enough of this crap. we want the zelda game intended for the wii and chrono trigger on virtual console. get off your fat asses plz plz

  16. Re:and the dept head said on Student Who Released Code From Assignments Accused of Cheating · · Score: -1

    failing a student for cheating is not an ethical violation.

    Why do i remember the periodic table going up to 112 in the 90s?

  18. Re:Fans are disconnected on Reviews: Star Trek · · Score: -1

    you're sort of contradicting yourself. Berman was calling the shots for nearly 20 of those 40 years. don't you see that it's sort of sucked (except for ds9) since gene died? why can't jj do whatever he wants if half of star trek actually sucks?

  19. Re:Isn't it strange on Ubuntu 9.04 Is As Slick As Win7, Mac OS X · · Score: -1

    it's not so much as crappy programming, but developers needing the system to handle so many tasks that they used to have to deal with themselves. thus, there is bloat in modern operating systems.

    no, it means that standards groups should have better rules

    i've had more games spoiled for me from having to spend 10 hours searching for the blue key than anything else

  22. horse shit on Firefox Exec Says Windows Bundling Is a Bad Idea · · Score: -1

    someone please tell me what difference it makes what browser is bundled with the OS... if they had to stick a free and oss package in there (giggity) would it make a difference is nobody is "profiting" from default marketshare?

  23. Re:paging benefits? on Four X25-E Extreme SSDs Combined In Hardware RAID · · Score: -1

    if you're working with data larger than you're system's ram, you need a swap file

  24. Travis Wright on Please No, Not a Blade Runner Sequel · · Score: -1

    I reserve the right to fuck you up if you do this.

  25. paging benefits? on Four X25-E Extreme SSDs Combined In Hardware RAID · · Score: -1
