  2. It's a people problem on Cylance Hacks Google Office Building Management System · · Score: 5, Informative

    They can only get the configuration file if they already have access. The contractor left the passwords at the default.

  3. Streaming on Ask Slashdot: Why Is It So Hard To Make An Accurate Progress Bar? · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    This question is stupid shit for stupid people. Fucking deal with it...

  4. Don't worry on Missouri Legislation Redefines Science, Pushes Intelligent Design · · Score: 2

    In the long run, I'm pretty sure this is more harmful to religion than anything else.

  5. Re:Is this really a fix? on Oracle Ships Java 7 Update 11 With Vulnerability Fixes · · Score: 1

    This is a common misunderstanding of apple users.

  6. Re:Attention economy on Facebook Testing $100 Fee To Mail Mark Zuckerberg · · Score: 1

    I agree. But I think the key will be giving the recipient a cut.

  7. It's all about risk on Silicon Valley's Dirty Little Secret: Age Bias · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Most of the successful people I know got that way to because they took a risk they were largely unaware of. These people were either psychopathic or young, both stupid. For every one of them, I'm sure there are thousands who suffered the consequences.

    But as an investor, who would you go with? The crazy ones of course.

  8. A Bird in the Hand on Should a Teenage Entrepreneur Sell Out To Facebook? · · Score: 1

    Is worth two in the bush.

  9. Sad on Newsweek To Go Digital-Only In 2013 · · Score: 4, Interesting

    It used to be a good source of info. I remember learning about Alta Vista from Newsweek. Oddly, and if I'm remembering correctly, they were profiling Leslie Nielsen who loved the search engine.

  10. Re:I may be naive... on Decentralized Social Networking — Why It Could Work · · Score: 1

    But I don't think you have used enough words to describe this concept :-P

    If I had mod points, I'd give you some...

  11. Replace our laptops on What Windows Phone 8 Needs To Do To Succeed · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Simple dock for peripherals and the deal is done. They would trounce the market.

  12. Re:"Arab Spring" on Complex Systems Theorists Predict We're About One Year From Global Food Riots · · Score: 1

    I disagree. It is my personal opinion that those involved in the Arab Spring finally felt the US wasn't going to rebuild their nation for them. Just to be clear, I think that is a good thing.

  13. Re:Who cares? on Impending CA Sales Tax Sparks Amazon Buying Frenzy · · Score: 1

    Either you aren't from here, or you're just another retardican. Infrastructure is amazing here, the police rock, and you should try jury duty, the initial opening presentation is inspiring (because they know you are a selfish fuck who doesn't get it, and lay it out such a way that an infant like yourself can get it).

    I've lived in CT, LA, VA and now CA. It is so well planned and managed here you can't imagine because you're an anonymous coward, a pussy, selfish, and voted for the wrong party until you "realized" you were a tea-bagger, but at the end of the day, your bloodline will end because you are so fucking dumb.

  14. Re:Who cares? on Impending CA Sales Tax Sparks Amazon Buying Frenzy · · Score: 1

    That's right, imagine the equivalent cost of shipping such a significant proportion of your income (said the OP) on the Pony Express.

  15. Re:Fuck you CA, my Dad lives in AZ on Impending CA Sales Tax Sparks Amazon Buying Frenzy · · Score: 1

    No, road repairs, cops and courts are paid for by magic faerie dust.

    I live in OC; I've lived in Louisiana, Connecticut, and Virginia.

    Despite the fiction of CA you believe and have faith in, life is pretty awesome and very well run here.

    Money well spent.

  16. Re:Fuck you CA, my Dad lives in AZ on Impending CA Sales Tax Sparks Amazon Buying Frenzy · · Score: 1, Troll

    Why shouldn't you or Amazon pay for the infrastructure to get you your goods, the police to protect them, the courts to uphold your rights?

  17. Re:Who cares? on Impending CA Sales Tax Sparks Amazon Buying Frenzy · · Score: 0

    Exactly, why should you or Amazon pay for the infrastructure to get you your goods, the police to protect them, the courts to uphold your rights...

  18. BTW - James Gosling on Wave Glider Robot Helps Forecast Hurricane Isaac's Path · · Score: 3, Interesting

  19. Sweet!!! on Reports Say Apple Is Shrinking Its Docking Connector With iPhone 5 · · Score: 0

    Just the excuse I needed to buy all new gear! La la la la la...

  20. Audacity on Google Bars Site That Converts YouTube Songs Into MP3s · · Score: 2

    I used to use Audacity for this, and it worked well. However, the audio quality on YouTube is noticeably awful.

    I don't think they need to block these sites. The poor quality is what finally pushed me to start purchasing songs.

  21. Re:False Assumption on Cognitive Software Identifies America's Brainiest Cities · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Like crossword puzzles? What do you base your comment on?

    Personally, I find their map correlates well with low effort thinkers: http://www.freakonomics.com/2012/04/09/the-thinking-liberal/

  22. Re:Hand in glove on Avast Drops iYogi Support Over Pushy Scare Tactics · · Score: 1

    I've never had that experience and I've installed it on several computers over the past few years. I installed the free version, not a trial.

    By homophones, you mean iPhones, right?

  24. It's an attempt to make Javascript more Java-like. To be honest, I've only scanned the docs and haven't used it yet, but plan to.

    If anyone has some real-world experience they'd like to share, I'd love to hear about it.
