  1. Re:Oh thanks, just what I always wanted on Microsoft Announces Visual Studio For Mac (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 0

    You totally made that up. We're perfectly aware how shit Polish builders are. You dumb drunken Slavs couldn't build a concentration camp if you tried.

    The fucking walls would fall down in a moderate wind, unless shitty plumbing caused a flood and allowed the inmates to swim out first.

  2. Re:Dupe on Microsoft Announces Visual Studio For Mac (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 2

    What about the one where if you follow an external link or reply to a post it takes you to the top of the page when you come back, rather than the point you jumped off from?

    Which spacktard thought that was a good idea?

    We totally don't. Just fuck off already.

  4. Re:fascinatingly crafted reply... on China Tells Trump Climate Change Isn't a Hoax it Invented (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 4, Informative

    Unfortunately, Trump has shown a complete unwillingness to care about facts when they don't fit his narrative.

    Facts are #totallaypassay. We're like in the post-truth era now.

    Politician: Crime is up 47,000 percent!
    Journalist: No, figures say it's down roughly 13 percent.
    Politician: But people believe it's up 47,000 percent. That's what matters.

    I forget who it was. Newt "Family values" Gingrich?

    It's The Verge, what do you expect? It's aimed at people who find Wired too taxing.

  6. Re: Welcome to the future! on Red Hat Announces Fedora Will Support MP3 Playback (fedoraproject.org) · · Score: 1

    Dead Rat are the 600lb gorilla of the Linux world. Most other distros are little more than respins, the mainstream ones at least. It'd be a nightmare sorting the important genuine patches & fixes out from Loonart's meddling. I bet he's one of the assholes whose code doesn't need comments.

  9. Ow! My Balls! on Will Trump's Presidency Bring More Surveillance To The US? (scmagazine.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Could a Trump presidency ultimately lead to a massive public backlash against government surveillance?

    Unlikely. All they care about is cat videos.

    Does it have rounded corners? Apple's lawyers will be after you!

    Fucking rubbish. Use a struct/class/type or whatever, with two fields: one for the number, the other for the unit.

    A lot depends on the settings. Some WD drives were too "lazy" so they were constantly parking/unparking. Google wdidle3.

    Rust spinners wear out too. This can be a particular problem if it's constantly bringing the drive out of power-down.

    Don't bother looking when you're crossing the road because an an aeroplane might crash on your head. So develop a man portable air warning radar THEN think about getting new glasses.
