  1. So much for "Many Eyes" theory on 13-Year-Old Password Security Bug Fixed · · Score: 0

    Another Linux FAIL.

  2. you mean "hacks" on Microsoft, Google, Twitter Debate HTML5 · · Score: 1

    "As this story shows, the idea of unifying architectures and OSs is so strong that it's already happening in browser land. "
    Considering the number of hacks required to anything significant with JavaScript and CSS, I would hold off on that prediction.

    "there's just too much innovation in Linux, Windows and Mac"
    Linux - Innovation Zero.
    Windows - Innovation Meh.
    Mac - Innovation not bad.

    ".NET is a good step in that direction, "
    ROFL.

    If there's one thing Java should have taught us is that NO ONE want's a unified anything. Not Apple, Linux, Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, RIM, Nokia, etc... etc.. etc..
    They all want exclusivity for obvious reasons.

    To think that HTML 5 (or more strangely .NET) is going to solve this is just pie-in-the-sky thinking.

    http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2334857802602777622&ei=DoRESannBJLAqAL5p7z4DA&q=physics

    This is a lecture on physics a Berkeley. It will take an hour but it explains the Roswell UFO stuff and why it was classified.
    More fascinating IMO than aliens....

  8. Re:like Netscape FastTrack & LiveScript in '96 on JavaScript Servers Compared · · Score: 1

    Yup mod parent up.

  9. Re:The Future of the Past on Neuromancer Movie Deal Moving Forward · · Score: 1

    Er corporations ruled the world back it the 80's. I would put the date that corporations ruled the US at least at around 1751 when the Bank of England counterfeited early colonial currency and flooded the markets with it. It led to the war of independence - which America lost BTW.

  14. Not worthy on All Star Trek TV Coming To Netflix · · Score: 2

    If you don't already have all the box sets, figurines and toy communicators then you're not worthy to be on slashdot.

  15. Re:Worst /. article ever? on Mono Comes To Android · · Score: 1

    Yes exactly. .NET is a foundation fail.

  16. Re:Maybe if .NET 3 and 4 never happened on Mono Comes To Android · · Score: 2

    I wish I had mod points. My guess is the microsofties here will mod you down for truth.

  17. Re:borked link on Why Russian Space Images Look Different From NASA's · · Score: 5, Informative

    Gizmodo always does that. The links all revert to their home page like the fucken inbred assholes that they are.

    Agreed. The continuous wheel reinventing that goes on is so tiresome.
