    What did these people do from the store to the house? Grind their teeth in anticipation? If you're that retarded you deserve to have a hard time unpacking the product.

  5. Sd card? on Ask Slashdot: Building a Personal FOSS Cloud? · · Score: 1

    pull it out fo your phone and plop it into another device to import? If you're gonna pull all this retarded effort into the "cloud" why not just set up VNC and log into your computer at home and grab the contacts? You know something thats been available for over a decade.

  6. Re:What? on Canadian Banks Rushing To Offer Virtual Wallets · · Score: 1

    >s. Frankly, if my bank did that, I'd opt out of it immediately, and potentially change banks if they didn't allow the opt-out.

    Not related to this article but I already know a LOT of people who just store living expenses in their banks are are converting their income into buying silver and other metals. Money is really worth nothing and chances of precious metals sinking is slim to none, while currency is not guaranteed at all.

    You jail the person who came up with the idea. Just because you hide behind a corporation doesn't mean you are not liable if you do something that is against the law.

    >For example, flouting controlled substance laws to gamble 20-30 IQ points against a little temporary euphoria - then bragging about it - that sort of thing.

    Wow let me check my self as I don't want to upset the gmen by smoking a plant that grows like a weed around the globe but hey I'd better listen you and just hit the bottle. After all why not support the gov by paying taxes on alcohol cosumption.

    >1 - Judges are not educated enough to make a ruling need to be retired. Sorry, but why are you presiding over a technology case when you know nothing about technology?

    If judges have to be educated in distinguishing recangular round cornered objects I don't think they should be presiding over tech cases.

  16. I dont' get the on Sony To Acquire Cloud Gaming Company Gaikai for $380 Million · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    cloud since its nothing other than a "cool" name for remote storage but I can see how all these companies are jumping on it. They haven't yet been able to fully crush the first sale doctorine so just stick everything in the cloud and viola no more software resales. Unfortunatly all it takes is a few % of the 6 billion of us to keep these fuckers going and keep gouging us.

  17. Logitech Harmony on Cisco Pushing 'Cloud Connect' Router Firmware, Allows Web History Tracking · · Score: 1

    This is on par with Logitech's Harmony remote. I bought one a few weeks ago and did see the "must have intern access" label on it but I wasn't prepared to have a useless brick with no built in codes if I didn't have an internet connection. You'd figure it would contain codes the other 99% of univeral remotes out there or at least left me download a batch code file and load it up. On top of that I have to sign up, download software and only load up 4 codes at a time.

    Took me an hour of getting connection errors to finally get my codes in.

    Fuck yah....

  18. Re:Dear Canada: on Canadian DOJ Warned About Unconstitutionality of Copyright Digital Lock Rules · · Score: 2

    Dear American,

    Our government doesn't give a flying fuck, the papers don't really report on news like this and no one is willing to push back. So here we are getting fucked in the ass. Which is really strange as Canada is built on immigration and the same people who escaped their corrupt gov don't seem to really want to to anything about our sovereignty being invaded by US interests.

    You see its easier for the US to go after countries like Canada one by one as we are alone unlike the EU countries where they can band together and stay off the invasion.

  21. He wrote on Witness Ridicules 'Hands-On' Reviews of Surface · · Score: 2

    >Again, like I wrote before, if I could have only two of three tablets, I’d go iPad then Windows 8 and not Android, because Android’s not offering me anything I can’t already do on the iPad but with (to me) what’s not an elegant environment. Windows 8 is different, unique, seems to offer some compelling features even without the icing of a kickstand that goes “click” and thin keyboard.

    Wait wait he bitches about not being able to use the tablet to see what its all about but he prefers it over an Android tablet because there's something potentially magical about it even though he has no clue what that could be...

    I've never used it but doesn't Asus Transformer already do the same thing as the windows tablet. Convert from laptop to tablet and vice versa?

I'll stick to D1 and D2.
