  1. Trash me please on Ask Slashdot: Workaday Software For BSD On the Desktop? · · Score: 1

    How the hell does this absolute crap get posted?

  2. Re:Desparate Microsoft pulls a "Sun Microsystems" on Microsoft To Open Source .NET and Take It Cross-Platform · · Score: 2, Informative

    "What the fuck is Qt?", my boss says. He is right. Great news re .Net. Good luck to all of those unable to see the benifit of this. Our companies will eat your companies for peanuts, not because of .Net, but because your tech opinons are so clouded with emotion.

  3. If so damn many people are making nukes on Buying Goods To Make Nuclear Weapons On eBay, Alibaba, and Other Platforms · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Why no booms?

  4. Re:Time for Solidarity? on Skilled Foreign Workers Treated as Indentured Servants · · Score: 1

    I only remember it from the time when people could afford to pay their doctors for the most part.

  5. Re:Abuses on all sides on Skilled Foreign Workers Treated as Indentured Servants · · Score: 1

    Bullshit, you are a chump and your costs are insane for that rnd overheard conversation. Focus makes deadlines. People who ask questions get A's. People who don't you fire.

  6. Re:Time for Solidarity? on Skilled Foreign Workers Treated as Indentured Servants · · Score: 1

    Wait, are you saying you think your insurance is good? The above is scary as hell to anyone who lives in a civilized contry.

  7. Re:Was pretty obvious on Skilled Foreign Workers Treated as Indentured Servants · · Score: 1

    That is almost worse. For a long time I blamed Republicans(rightfully), but there isn't a good alternative anymore either.

  8. Re:Obvious on Getting Lost In the Scientific Woods Is Good For You · · Score: 1

    Well it seems to me a lot of scientists might as well have become accounts. Mechanism? no. Stats on what happens when you combine 500,000 PPM of something you shouldn't eat or touch anyway, with a mice's ear, oh yes.. But then everything is always about Money. Lost in the woods is what I used to DREAM science was really like. Maybe it is for some few, some very few.

  9. Re:This was no AP. on LAX To London Flight Delayed Over "Al-Quida" Wi-Fi Name · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The sad thing is that this is now taken to be, "common sense", instead of acknowledging the environment of fear created, NOT by the terrorists.

  10. Re:Completely appropriate venue on Creationism Conference at Michigan State University Stirs Unease · · Score: 1

    This reminds me of Chess. The idea that an entirely un-sound opening, still requires some level of expertise to refute. I think it is a good point. To me that was one of the big dividing lines between someone who is educated regarding Chess vs a casual player. That a person could at least understand that concept, even if not actually refute such openings.

  11. Re:What is critical thinking? on Employers Worried About Critical Thinking Skills · · Score: 2

    Seeking the truth and constantly re-defining the truth based on un-biased interpetation of experimental results. That is "critical" The old, the man is sitting in the chair = true, the man got up, the preceeding statement is now false. Ok next.

  12. Re:I delete things when I'm done using them on Ask Slashdot: Smarter Disk Space Monitoring In the Age of Cheap Storage? · · Score: 1

    Hell yeah :)

  13. Communication? on Ask Slashdot: Aging and Orphan Open Source Projects? · · Score: 0

    Maybe try telling people what the project actually is, would be a start?

  14. Re:how pretty on More Eye Candy Coming To Windows 10 · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Indeed. I turn off all animations they waste time and resources. How about making it super easy for me not to have to do searches for files all of the time? More intelligent awareness of what I did last time when I opened a file from one folder vs another. LESS visual BS that just looks pretty but leaves me entirely confused as to how to do my work. FRICKN OFFICE MENUS MUST DIE.

  15. PLEASE PLEASE on One In Three Jobs Will Be Taken By Software Or Robots By 2025, Says Gartner · · Score: 1

    Let them take Gartner as well!

  16. Re: I've been impressed with IE lately on Internet Explorer Implements HTTP/2 Support · · Score: 2

    I like that IE will actually ACCEPT my self signed CA cert(when I install it) without throwing crazed monkeys at it :)

  17. JS single thread? on Internet Explorer Implements HTTP/2 Support · · Score: 1

    So does this put the pressure on to adapt JS to match up? Otherwise, it seems to me that the single thread deal with JS will partly hinder mulitplexing goodness. fast fast on the network, still slow slow on the browser. I guess that has always been the case even with multiple requests at a time, but it always seemed to me that was a kind of accepted, almost excuse re JS. Like yeah, "you don't want to make too many requests at once anyway"...

  19. Re:Thats not good. on jQuery.com Compromised To Serve Malware · · Score: 1

    yep, and the low visibility of your one single site means that any exploit on your version of jquery will be much more likely to go unnoticed. Not to mention the not RTFA part about it not affecting hosted versions.

  20. Re:They will never learn on jQuery.com Compromised To Serve Malware · · Score: 3, Insightful

    What makes YOUR site so safe?

  21. Re:You "mind isn't as sharp"? on Ask Slashdot: How To Pick Up Astronomy and Physics As an Adult? · · Score: 1

    heh, that is where the, "seems to come easier", applies, yeah man I writing like this great poetry!

  22. Re:I'm older but in the same boat on Ask Slashdot: How To Pick Up Astronomy and Physics As an Adult? · · Score: 1

    You mean chefs? That is all they end up doing.

  23. Fuck you on Scientists Capture the Sound Made By a Single Atom · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Fuck you fuck you fuck you. And I just fixed something really stupid for my boss. Fuck you for letting me know people even get to do stuff like this.

  24. Re:Yes, and it still can on Could Tech Have Stopped ISIS From Using Our Own Heavy Weapons Against Us? · · Score: 1

    Best Answer yet!

  25. Re:Here's an idea on Could Tech Have Stopped ISIS From Using Our Own Heavy Weapons Against Us? · · Score: 1

    So we invaded for the children? Or so that Iran could turn their attention away from their most mortal enemy? It was never the U.S. until maybe now.
