  3. they can't even tempt me because their infrastructure sucks balls

    You better collect those balls, I hear they're used for something in the game.

    How about creating a new TCP/IP "do not copy" security bit, similar to the evil bit in RFC 3514?

  5. Re:Liar, Liar, Pants On Fire on Apple Should Stop Selling Four-Year-Old Computers (theverge.com) · · Score: 2

    Not to mention that the 2014 Mac mini was actually a downgrade from the 2012 models. The 2014 models also introduced non-upgradable RAM which is a step backwards for most of us. And last, they're still using 5400RPM hard drives and charge a premium for it. I'd rather see a smaller 120GB SSD than a slow 500GB hard drive.

    But if they get out of the computer market, does that mean they'll start selling macOS for PCs? Maybe limit to certain chipsets, CPUs and GPUs to make things simple (for them).

    Otherwise without macOS you don't have XCode and without XCode you don't get apps for the iPhones and iPads.

    This! A hundred times this! I can't even recall the number of times people asked for more battery life for their iMacs!

  8. Re:...and mirrors on Average Broadband Speed in US Rises Above 50 Mbps For First Time (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    To be fair, they did try to put a telegraph line in, but the Smith's down the road a ways cut and burned the poles trying to watch porn, and so that never came about.

    Well at least he did get wood.

  9. And I'm pretty sure land swimmers won't be affected as much.

  10. Re:Procedurally generated on Chased Off of YouTube, Leaked 'No Man's Sky' Footage Runs to Pornhub (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    I read ahoffer0's earlier comment about the game. The thing about procedurally generated comments is that after a while they all look the same.

  12. If you want a fucking game, try the Leisure Suit Larry series.

    The 80's had a lot of things right.

    And how are we supposed to know those tests work if you use blind people?

    Think, people, think!

  15. I wonder how many Slashdot readers are already trying to improve their sleep patterns by avoiding exposure to blue light?

    It's quite easy, really.

    Slashdot promotes virtual hot grits of cows using apps to display A.I.-generated, Raspberry Pi beowulf cluster cloud-powered 3D-printed drones ads and pointless user-generated posts like this one.

    The Mojave Desert is the perfect place to test dangerous prototypes such as rocket cars.

    Slashdot does not promote piracy.

    If we could somehow apply that technique to energy production, we'd blow ourselves up.

  22. Re:Big Mac on The Most Popular Product Of All Time · · Score: 4, Funny

    Apple also sells Big Macs. They call it the Mac Pro.

    Well, it used to be big, anyway.

  23. Shipping? on Amazon Debuts a Dedicated Shop For Kickstarter Products (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Shipping products all over the world is something that can be quite complex since laws and requirements differs from country to country.

    If Amazon can fill the role of shipping partner, it would be a game-changer for a lot of smaller projects.

  24. Re:How were crimes solved before cell phones? on New York DA Wants Apple, Google To Roll Back Encryption (tomsguide.com) · · Score: 4, Funny

    Terrorists took over some planes? Let's enact crazy "security" that can't actually catch anything, treats everyone like a criminal, and make sure we grope kids and grandma so we don't look like we're profiling.

    Banning planes would have been easier.
