This story is new and the comments are fresh. You need to wait a day before more comments pour in and they get moderated so you don't see all the bullshit and smart comments make it out. I do feel your pain though, Slashdot comments have gone down in quality overall. If you find a website with tech news and smart people commenting, come back and let us all know! And consider staying and contributing to the intelligent conversation!
My Debian stable machine is safe, I'm missing that file, don't use chrome, don't use gnome file managers that attempt to preview music files. Yes 0-days are bad and can happen in Linux environments as well as any other, but there's still the lack of monoculture in Linux. Show me a windows machine that doesn't have IE installed.
I bought the Vive a couple weeks ago and don't get motion sickness at all. There isn't a lot of walking or unnatural moving. I even played a virtual body tour where I was moving on a rail and didn't get sick. Not everyone is as delicate as you.
Forget the mainstream media, what about the government itself? Remember when we were assured that our communications weren't being tracked? There are punishments set up for people that break these laws, but they're not enforced. The government flat-out lying and the mainstream media's bias turned people away from traditional news sources. They have nobody to blame for this current situation but themselves.
That's not true. We do have the ability to freeze the body without fatally damaging the cells. It would have been smarter to suspend her life (or kill her if you view it that way) via the cryogenic process rather than let her body get further ravaged by cancer to the point that it can't function on its own anymore.
So to avoid that catastrophic liquid-to-solid state change, cryonics technicians do something cool—they perform surgery through the chest and hook the major arteries up to tubes which pump all the blood out of the body, replacing it with a “cryoprotectant solution,” otherwise known as medical grade anti-freeze. This does two important things: it replaces 60% of the water in the body’s cells, and it lowers the freezing point of what liquid is left. The result, when done perfectly, is that no freezing happens in the body. Instead, as they chill your body down and down over the next three hours, it hits -124C, a key point called the “glass transition temperature” when the body’s liquid stays amorphous but rises so high in viscosity that no molecule can budge. You’re officially an amorphous solid, like glass—i.e. you’re vitrified.
With no molecule movement, all chemical activity in your body comes to a halt. Biological time is stopped. You’re on pause.
Not just Hillary, but democrats in general. I was a big Bernie fan and the DNC unfairly shutting him out left more than just a bad taste in my mouth. I mean not only did that show their corruption, but also idiocy. The morons could have won with Bernie had they just followed their own rules!
They'll be lucky if I ever vote anyone with a D next to their name for the rest of my life.
Sounds like an argument to use Vorbis to me. Even smaller than high-bitrate mp3 and it sounds better! The only reason not to use Vorbis these days is because you're stuck with legacy equipment, just like GP said.
The reason someone would use Samsung's assistant is because of vendor lock-in. People who buy Samsung phones will have this set as the default instead of Google Now. It was already like this on my company's Samsung phones we bought years ago. You'd hold the home button and it would ask if I wanted to complete the task with Google Now or S-Voice, which is a dumber voice-controlled assistant.
Exactly. Why can't they just take selfies at the booth or at the polling station? Hell, they can even say "Look at me! I made a difference by voting for the lesser of 2 evils!" The whole point is to not show your marked ballot so that it remains a secret. These people can still make the exact same statement without showing a marked ballot.
They won't figure it out until someone doxes them now that they're in the court system and harasses them over their votes. Now that would be ironic end to this.
Sure there are some kids like that, but the channels with many views have views for a reason. They're pros that play the game(s) or organized tournaments. My favorite streamer Vibe has made over $32k in tournaments before becoming a full-time streamer.
This is a problem for all the breeders of the world. I'm not having kids, so go ahead and deny global warming (real or not) all you want. It'll be your spawn that fights for resources, not me or mine. I'll start caring when immortality is achieved:)
Slashdot Mirror
Nobody got punished when Watergate happened, so why should I give a shit about this? The American government obviously condones this behavior.

Cool, now maybe we can finally put an end to the "large structures on the far side of the moon" conspiracy.
Right, it was a 0-day when it was released... a month ago:

Now consider it normal.
Advantages of Windows 10? What advantages?
and importantly file bugs on us.
Oh, you want free help. Just say so next time please.
Those poor bastards, what did they do to deserve this? Vatican excluded, we know exactly what they did.
I read the title as "Piracy Group Sues The FBI.." and thought they've sure grown some big balls, eh?
All very true, but it's still misleading to say we haven't figured out how to "freeze" the body without destroying it.

Just because a computer is new out of the box from the retailer doesn't mean it wasn't shipped with malware. I'm looking at you, Microsoft and Lenovo!
That's what I said, yes.

They didn't come here illegally, they came here legally and then illegally stayed.

Most people that own Teslas live in California where it doesn't hail. They don't live in the flyover states.

Use noscript, problem solved.
