  1. Trusted Advisor? on Post Mortem of GunnAllen IT Meltdown · · Score: 3, Informative

    Wow, according to the The Revere Group website:

    WHEN TRANSFORMING THEIR BUSINESS, TOP PERFORMERS TURN TO A TRUSTED ADVISOR

    Guess that's not The Revere! Group

  2. No, not funny, boring. on PETA Condemns Pokemon For Promoting Animal Abuse · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Honestly, people, why is this story even here? PETA shits out a turd like this once a week. And Slashdot has given them exactly what they wanted.

  3. I know the one I want... on Sprint Now Offering Vanity Phone Numbers Aliases With **Me Service · · Score: 3, Funny

    I have Verizon (the service which during a recent trip to Travis Air Force Base really sucked big time), I think Iâ(TM)ll ask for âoeFuckMeRawâ.

  4. Pipe Dream... on Start-Up Wants To Open Up Science Journals and Eliminate Paywalls · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I can build a web site like this, too! It doesnâ(TM)t mean that the journals I follow will come running to me to abandon their multi-thousand a year subscription fees. The solution is not in the delivery system, itâ(TM)s in the entire mentality of the so-called âoeprofessional journalâ and the need for scientists to pimp themselves within.

    And that will not happen any time soon.

  5. It's "whack" ... on Motorola's Whacked Lapdock Can Make Raspberry Pi Base · · Score: 1

    ... so it must be good!

  6. Re:Sony's Boink Thighboard Pot Go Strawberry Mu Ho on Motorola's Whacked Lapdock Can Make Raspberry Pi Base · · Score: 2

    Motorola's Whacked Lapdock Can Make Raspberry Pi Base

    So what do I do? Add water? Mix and bake?

  7. Re:Case Reset... on Unredacted Documents In Apple/Samsung Case, No Evidence of 'Copy' Instruction · · Score: 1

    I hope there is a new trial (or better, the whole damn thing gets thrown out), but that is anything but a foregone conclusion.

    What are you talking about? The case without question will be appealed.

  8. Re:It all sounds vaguely familar... on US Air Force's 1950s Supersonic Flying Saucer Declassified · · Score: 2

    the b2 has advantages over other designs. what is the advantage of a flying saucer compared to wing based aircraft? at least on earth

    The primary thing that made the B-2 doable over previous flying wings is the microprocessor and the ability of modern computers to stabilize the aircraft in flight. The computers make constant changes to the control surfaces that would overwhelm human pilots.

  9. Re:Samsung marketing hard at work... on Unredacted Documents In Apple/Samsung Case, No Evidence of 'Copy' Instruction · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I mean seriously, where's are the Slashdot stories talking about the report that shows Samsung's labor violations in China [thedroidguy.com]?!?

    The problem is that virtually all consumer technology has this issue, and since we would like to keep our toys, we conveniently ignore abuses like these. There's really no pleasent way around it.

  10. Case Reset... on Unredacted Documents In Apple/Samsung Case, No Evidence of 'Copy' Instruction · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Given that there was some serious misconduct with respect to the Jury Forman and his "creative" opinions about prior art and patent law, this case will be appealed and start all over.

  11. The letter is in the mail... on Student Publishes Extensive Statistics On the Population of Middle-Earth · · Score: 4, Insightful

    This poor guy will probably soon receive a Cease and Desist letter from Tolken's estate...

  12. Re:crime? on Kim Dotcom Apparently Spied On For Longer Than Admitted · · Score: 1

    That in itself is not a crime.

    I'm not saying this, but the issue is "facilitating" this "piracy".

  13. Re:crime? on Kim Dotcom Apparently Spied On For Longer Than Admitted · · Score: -1, Troll

    Can anyone remind me, again what his crime was?
    Wasn't he just running a cloud backup service, same as countless nonarrested others?

    Didn't he "pay out" for files that brought a lot of traffic? With "pirated" content bringing the most traffic?

  14. Anal Probe on Your Facebook Likes Conveyed As Simulated Hugs · · Score: 1

    So the corresponding Facebook-aware product would be a "Fleshlike"?

    Considering many people's obsession with Facebook, an electronic device used for masturbation that was somehow connected to Facebook activity seems like a potential "killer app". I see millions in sales! And think of the advertising tie-ins...

    But, I think this device would probably take the form of some sort of anal probe.

  15. Re:Possible Delicacy on Why Worms In the Toilet Might Be a Good Idea · · Score: 1

    ...or are you a grease ridden cheeseburger?

    I assume most Slashdotters are. In our cubes and basements. In stained T-shirts emblazoned with some comic book logo. With three computers, one to continuously serve porn up, a dedicated WoW machine, and something for trolling Slashdot.

  16. Re:Possible Delicacy on Why Worms In the Toilet Might Be a Good Idea · · Score: 2

    And some good prime beef, none of that grass fed crap.

    You've got to be kidding me, right? Grass fed beef produces a far tastier steak.

  17. Re:Is there a smaller version? on Your Facebook Likes Conveyed As Simulated Hugs · · Score: 1

    Well, there is the "Fleshlight" for folks like you...

  18. Possible Delicacy on Why Worms In the Toilet Might Be a Good Idea · · Score: 1

    The Romans loved something called "lickerfish", probably a catfish, that hung out at the Rome sewer outflows into the Tiber river. In other words, these fish got fat eating human shit, and the Romans considered them a delicacy.

  19. Re:Working phone number in whois on EU Privacy Watchdog To ICANN: Law Enforcement WHOIS Demands "Unlawful" · · Score: 1

    Judges do, as part of their role in the judicial system. Really, I thought that you would understand this.

    Here in the USA, judges tend to rubber-stamp warrants, and then there is the Patriot Act, Mr. Snarky. As you say, "Really, I thought that you would understand this."

  20. Re:Working phone number in whois on EU Privacy Watchdog To ICANN: Law Enforcement WHOIS Demands "Unlawful" · · Score: 2

    ...but law enforcement can apply to the courts to get the details if my domain names are being used for illegal purposes. That seems to me to be a good balance..."

    Yes, but who defines "illegal purposes" and who vets the alleged "illegal purposes" to determine the validity of the request?

    "Law Enforcement" is well known to have, shall we say, "unique" ideas about the definition of "illegal purposes". Not only that, "L.E." is also well know to flat-out LIE.

  21. I don't drink soda pop. on Indian Minister Says Telecom Companies Should Only Charge For Data · · Score: 1

    I think fast food restaurants should stop charging for food and only charge for the soda pop, since that's where the profit center is!

  22. Re:Juxtaposition on United States Navy Names Ship After Neil Armstrong · · Score: 1

    Here, here! More funding for the study of those mysterious contrails...

  23. Re:easy on What Should Start-Ups Do With the Brilliant Jerk? · · Score: 0

    brilliant business people are the opposite of productive.

    That's an ignorent statement.

  24. Come on Slashdot, seriously? on Torvalds Uses Profanity To Lambaste Romney Remarks · · Score: 5, Informative

    For those having issues understanding the summary, here's the plain text:

    'a f***ing moron' = ' a fucking moron'

    'bats**t crazy' = 'batshit crazy'

    Hope this helps.

  25. Re:Define "Beer". on Beer Is Cheaper In the US Than Anywhere Else In the World · · Score: 1

    I just drank half a liter from a can marked "Beer". Paid 50 (Euro) cents for it.

    Not in Italy. 50 cents US is a fraction of a Euro, and I seriously don't think that you can buy beer in ANY European country for that little.
