  1. Re:James Murphy says on Lead Mir Developer: 'Mir More Relevant Than Wayland In Two Years' · · Score: 1

    Not true. I know a few people (who know me) whose relevance is dwarfed even by the lowliest Anonymous Coward.

  2. Re:I still don't see what's wrong with X on Lead Mir Developer: 'Mir More Relevant Than Wayland In Two Years' · · Score: 1

    Yes. But. X. Real. Mir. Wishful. Thinking.

    Mod points from me. Have name, will deliver -- if not now, then on any other topic soon.

  4. Re:Quite on Lead Mir Developer: 'Mir More Relevant Than Wayland In Two Years' · · Score: 2

    Wish I had mod points!
    Canonical --said it once and'll say it again-- is a PR Company. And, as with PR, it's braindead, and memory-deficient.
    Remember those "100 Paper Cuts", introduced by Mr. You Know Whom?

  5. No eggs where damaged during this experiment on How Curved Spacetime Can Be Created In a Quantum Optics Lab · · Score: 1

    Which is kind-of-a shame, since I'd have liked them, sunny side up.

  6. The perfidity of the U.S. enterprise on The Guardian Reveals That Whisper App Tracks "Anonymous" Users · · Score: 1

    "Power to the .... err -- to those in power.

  7. Re:freedoms f----d on Trans-Pacific Partnership May Endanger World Health, Newly Leaked Chapter Shows · · Score: 1

    Have you ever seen those denialists (R, any state) in those fine committees? Have you ever seen them get the issues addressed at them? Have you ever noticed the absurdity, the totally absurd charade of their so-called 'answers' in "addressing the issues"?
    Your prescription, though fine for people of intellect, good will and reason (often related), your fine advice fails miserably and absurdly in the face of nitwits with money-backed power. Face reality; some people are best served with a clue bat.

  8. Re:freedoms f----d on Trans-Pacific Partnership May Endanger World Health, Newly Leaked Chapter Shows · · Score: 1

    It's 'the US' (exercise to reader: why the quotes?), the 'US' I said, doing everything to justify ebola outbreaks.

  9. Offense takes many shapes on Torvalds: I Made Community-Building Mistakes With Linux · · Score: 1

    You can offend in human language, and you can offend in computer language. What does Poettering want, a nanny?

  10. In a true democracy on FBI Director Continues His Campaign Against Encryption · · Score: 1

    ... with separation of powers, the police have the good decency not to engage in matters of political policy, and on the occasion they do, they get slapped on the wrist.

  11. Re:Just tell me on Positive Ebola Test In Second Texas Health Worker · · Score: 1

    Your NSA has everything under control. Trust them -- Blame them.

  12. The problem with tautological reasoning on How English Beat German As the Language of Science · · Score: 1

    Is that according to the gist of this article, there is no Science in China.

  13. UTV on Linux Foundation Launches Open Source Dronecode Project · · Score: 1

    T as in Terrestrial. Not having been much into UAV's, to me, the most impressive UTV is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

  14. Sounds cool on Microsoft's Quantum Mechanics · · Score: 1

    Microsoft is in for a hoax. The 'Majorana fermion' --let's reveal it here and now-- might as well have been called the
    'Marihuana fermion '. Do I need to explain further? Looks like for the time being they'll be using Notepad for their data crunching.>/p

  15. Re:it's just like dating! on Mining Kickstarter Data Reveals How To Match Crowdfunding Projects To Investors · · Score: 1

    Wrong forum.
    Your criteria are a failure combination. The hidden but implied fifth criterium (virtually no mental capacities) cannot be met here.

  16. The uncut version on Crowdsourced Remake "The Empire Strikes Back Uncut" Now Complete · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    For all of you who don't like circumcised dicks and like the sensitive type.

    Sorry -- just had a happy breakthrough in some serious bug hunting, and giddily turned to /.

  17. Re:Getting tired of this shit on Four Dutch Uberpop Taxi Drivers Arrested, Fined · · Score: 1

    Thanks for the insightful comment. I had no opinion on the matter (and no mod point, alas!), but you've
    shed some light on it, at least. And prodded me to read up on Uber a bit, and what they're up to. Thank you.

  18. Re:Our PC society will be our demise! on Experts Decry Randomized Ebola Treatment Trials As Unethical, Impractical · · Score: 0

    There's no such things as political correctness. It's only in the mind of neo-fascists like you. Why don't you volunteer for some experiments, be virused and treated and be done with it?

  19. And stop stealing your community's bandwidth.

  20. Re:Only 100 you say? on Only 100 Cybercrime Brains Worldwide, Says Europol Boss · · Score: 1

    Note where the statement came form. Cluelesser and cluelesser is hard to image...
    I know they're trolling for comment, but what the heck, they're pathological panty sniffers anyway.

  21. Re:Nvidia drivers rock on NVIDIA Presents Plans To Support Mir and Wayland On Linux · · Score: 1

    NVidia shouild be chided at every opportunity by anyone believing seriously in open source and/or free software.
    NVidia from the get go has hated Linux and Open Source to the core, and only cater to them for PR reasons.

  22. What if Oracle happens to have patents on the API on Prosthetic Hand Capable of Delivering Texture Sensations · · Score: 1

    You can't even give Larry Ellison the middle finger.

  23. Re:Argument from authority on Carl Sagan, as "Mr. X," Extolled Benefits of Marijuana · · Score: 1

    No it's not more valid. The imprisonment you talk of is real, but that is based on ... (surprise!) ... politics and the agenda's of those in power, not on anything any scientist like Carl Sagan would have to say on the subject. You should fight such abuse of power on the level of where it's leveraged, not by invoking some authority (in this case: is Sagan an authority in cannabis? who know?), because those opposing will always find authority-Y-same-level-as-Sagan. People are imprisoned -- research why and how an by whom.

  24. containment on Details of iOS and Android Device Encryption · · Score: 2
