  1. Congratulations on Alibaba Founder Defends Overtime Work Culture As 'Huge Blessing' (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    Congratulations for being proud to treat people like slaves and then have the balls to call it opportunity. Time is much more valuable than money. If your employees do not realize that you treat them as slaves just wait another generation or two and treating people like this will no longer be acceptable in China as it isnâ(TM)t in other countries.

  2. Re: Absolultely shocking... on Congress is About To Ban the Government From Offering Free Online Tax Filing (propublica.org) · · Score: 1

    Just the American way.

    Amen mofo.

  4. I have never liked YouTube on Is the Golden Age of YouTube Over? (theverge.com) · · Score: 0

    Most of the content is shit.

  5. I cannot understand why one would even want one of these things.

  6. Frivolous Lawsuit Idea on Cooking Sunday Roast Causes Indoor Pollution 'Worse Than Delhi' (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Maybe everyone who works at a restaurant can sue their employer.

  7. Who gives a shit. More hypochondriac bullshit from the letâ(TM)s worry about every irrelevant thing possible âoeWe are all going to die!â freaks.

    Here is a big who gives a shit for this.

    Here is a big âoeWho gives a shitâ for this.

  10. Android is junk and Fuchsia is the platform that will replace it.

  11. iOS has a high likelihood of becoming a desktop OS, but I do not think Android will. Google is likely to kill the legacy and already inferior Android platform and replace it with Fuchsia.

  12. Java is not dead, on Ask Slashdot: How Dead Is Java? (jaxenter.com) · · Score: 1

    but I hate using Java based applications and avoid using them. I also dislike server Java applications that I am forced to support. Oh, and Oracle....everyone who doesnâ(TM)t make money based on an Oracle certification requiring job hates Oracle, there is always that. Android is the only product that relies on Java that I do not think sucks, but Android would be a better platform if the apps ran natively. Thus, I wish Java was dead but it is far from it.

  13. In fact, I would cancel my subscription if I ever heard Netflix had an ad on any show they were showing at all whether I ever saw it or not.

  14. I do not and will never pay to see a goddamned ad.

  15. If I ever see a single ad on Netflix I will immediately end my subscription.

  16. Is Tim Berners-Lee even relevant for any reason today?

  17. I was previously interested in Hue lights, fortunately I haven't bought them yet. Fuck you.

  18. Re:Shifting the risk on Planes Without Pilots · · Score: 1

    Yeah, and what happens when they lose connectivity to a plane?

  19. no on Planes Without Pilots · · Score: 1

    I have no desire to fly on one of these. I believe that human confidence in technology is a little too exuberant. I assure you that government and business will only take this risk with people who are expendable, meaning you will not see Air Force One with one or no pilot anytime soon.

  20. I disagree with the Republicans on almost everything, but this actually makes sense.

    Meant not viable.

  22. Re:Certainly not from Linux on The Current State of Linux Video Editing · · Score: 0

    I kind of wondered WTF on this whole thing too. I guess that the tools on Linux are probably great after you get done screwing around to make the XWindows system work right with your graphics drivers and your input devices work correctly. Actually my experience Linux is that it is really cool, and I enjoy tinkering to get it to work correctly, but by the time I am done screwing around with making it work right (which usually quickly gets screwed up by an update) I switch back to my PC or Mac where the UI is less customizable and less glitchy. Linux is an awesome kernel and makes for great servers. My experiences with it as a desktop have not made me think that it is viable.

  23. Re:Google vs Microsoft on Google Releases More Windows Bugs · · Score: 1

    Microsoft is the number one enterprise tech company in the world, so I think that they are more than a public relations firm. Has /. become a site for people who only know about what is popular at the moment in tech? Or maybe it was always that way and I am just experienced enough to see it now.

  24. Re:Shame on you Google on Google Releases More Windows Bugs · · Score: 1

    All that I question about the action on Google's part is that they are a competitor, not an independent security firm.

  25. Re:I never thought that I would say this.... on Google Releases More Windows Bugs · · Score: 1

    Google hurt users by announcing by publicly announcing an exploit in their competitor's operating system that was not patched, especially when Microsoft tried to do the right thing by communicating with Google regarding when it would be patched and asking them to delay the release. Google is not a security firm by the way. They are a competitor. And for all of the Microsoft hate out there, and I have been in the hate Microsoft crowd myself, Google is in reality like Facebook on steroids (albeit with much cooler products).
