  1. Re: Yeah - not at all an advert. on Woman Uses 'Hey Siri' To Call An Ambulance and Help Save Her Child's Life (networkworld.com) · · Score: 0

    Apple rarely releases a completely new feature. What they usually do is wait until technology has caught up with the requirements necessary to create the feature properly. And then they add a non-technical interface to it so normal people can easily use it.

  2. Re:And no USB-C connector on Lenovo and Motorola Unveil PHAB2 Tango AR and Modular Moto Z Smartphones (hothardware.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    A braille display?

    Yeah, worst case scenario we'll end up with machines with GPP.

    Don't buy that shit, don't install it in your house and educate your children to be proper human beings.

    Really? I thought reporting news was supposed to be unbiased.

  7. Re:It's a trap! on Microsoft Has Created Its Own FreeBSD (microsoft.com) · · Score: 1

    So that means a totally free and legit Windows 10 install for those of us who never used Windows before?

    I'll take it!

    The worst Microsoft could do is spy on which games I play.

  8. Re:Less efficient on Larry Page Is Secretly Working On a Flying Car (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    The solution is multi-level grid of rails that go north, south, east and west. No congestion and maximum density with extremely reduced risks, all automated.

    It's Mr. Fusion.

    Then again it's really just a Krups Coffee grinder model number 223A, so who cares.

  10. Re:hope it has parachutes on Larry Page Is Secretly Working On a Flying Car (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    You don't even need cars to prove how many idiots are out there. Even just walking around is now considered unsafe for those people.

  11. Re:okay... on Ubuntu 16.10 To Be Powered By Linux Kernel 4.8 (softpedia.com) · · Score: 2

    Maybe the Linux Kernel 4.8 is magical or something?

  12. Re:Why do Slashdot users continually defend hacker on Russian Hacker Selling Information of 32 Million Twitter Accounts, Report Says (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    I think most people here do not agree with the hacker's actions, however most of us probably think that people should stop voluntarily putting all their informations and their lives into public social networks. Yes the hacker is to blame, but all the users can be blamed too.

  13. Re:Anti-competitive agreements? on Google Matches Apple's Plan To Give Developers A Bigger Cut of The Revenue (recode.net) · · Score: 1

    It seems obvious to me that they are merely reaction to each other's actions.

    And this time it's better for the developers so I don't really see anything negative here.

  14. Re:How much is 85% of zero? on Apple To Offer iOS Developers 85-15 Revenue Split; Debut Paid App Store Search Ads (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    According to Verizon "0.002 cents per kilobyte" math, 85% of zero is 1700%

    When you move into a new neighborhood and the neighbors don't come to visit you, that doesn't mean they don't exist.

  21. Re:Selling your soul on Netflix Blocks Many IPv6 Users Over Geolocation Difficulty · · Score: 2

    Sell your soul to greedy distributors? Netflix is basically our only legal option and all you can think is "screw them, I'll keep pirating shit anyway"?

  22. Re:The easier workaround on Netflix Blocks Many IPv6 Users Over Geolocation Difficulty · · Score: 2

    You think Netflix wants to lose time and money doing that kind of shit? They know it's pointless, they know it's a game of whack-a-mole and they know they'll lose subscribers over this.

    You know who's pushing for that shit? Hollywood/MPAA/etc. They don't care if it hurts Netflix.

    Wait, I take that back. They hope it hurts Netflix so they can push people to use their own services, even if they don't have any.

    You're probably making the mistake of trying to use a gamepad for a computer game which was made to use with a keyboard and mouse.
