  1. Goodbye Slashdot account. It's been fun but it's time to move on.

  2. Re:Slow is good on Apple Developing Tool To Remove Flashback · · Score: 2

    And they have no idea they are using it and have no direct interaction with the OS or it's file system. We are talking about actively used computers, mainly desktops/laptops.

    Don't be douche.

  3. Re:Fun prank of the week! on US Carriers Finally Doing Something About Cellphone Theft · · Score: 1

    The only iPhone that you can the change IEMI on is the 1st gen. It's not possible on any other model.

  4. Re:$575? Seriously? on Google Earns $2 Per Handset; Apple, $575 · · Score: 2

    It's free on iOS as well, if you don't mind ads.

  5. I didn't replace it with streaming on Millions of Subscribers Leaving Cable TV for Streaming Services · · Score: 1

    I just quit watching it all-together. The
    Only thIng I watch any more is college basketball and NFL, wh

  6. Re:Undisclosed? on Cops Can Crack an iPhone In Under Two Minutes · · Score: 1

    You are assuming that they don't do just that.

  7. Re:Ridiculous amount. on Boston Pays Out $170,000 To Man Arrested For Recording Police · · Score: 1

    Another site, Ars, I think, stated that we will get around $50k. The rest going towards legal fees.

  8. Good on James Cameron Begins His Deep-Sea Dive · · Score: -1, Troll

    Maybe he will stick to things like this instead of making shitty movies.

    *cough* Avatar *cough*

  9. Re:Apple Customers on Sprint CEO Defends Company's Decision To Bet It All On the iPhone · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I have a 4S and use the same amount of data as I did with my 3G, which isn't much at all. Less than a gig per month.

    I do use Siri as well, mostly when driving.

  10. Re:follow my lead on iFixit's Kyle Wiens On the War On DIY Electronics · · Score: 1

    Honestly, very few. If it works and it will boot, most people toss it in a dresser drawer and forget about it. In fact, I don't know anyone who throws away cellphones if they still work, and I don't really hang around gadget geeks.

  11. I'm divided on Kim Dotcom's Assets Seizure Order Ruled "Null and Void" · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Kim Dotcom is an absolute fucking tool, and I have ZERO respect for him. That said, if the authorities screwed up, they screwed up. Return his stuff.

  12. Re:Slashdot Groupthink on Google Facing New Privacy Probe Over Safari Incident · · Score: 1

    No, businesses are a necessity. Corporations are not.

  13. Re:That's odd on USS Enterprise Takes Its Final Voyage · · Score: 0

    Watch out everyone! We have a badass over here!

  14. Re:Computing is mostly mature sector on Cloud To Create 14 Million Jobs? Not So Much · · Score: 1

    You're assuming that Apple won't branch out or move into other areas. They aren't dumb and they will move to where the money is.

  15. Re:Hacked vs Cracked on GitHub Hacked · · Score: 1

    Words change. Either move on with everyone else or be left behind.

    Your choice.

  16. They have milked that franchise for too long. Try something new, for once.

  17. Re:To Which the Reaction Will Be on Open Letter By Eric S. Raymond To Chris Dodd · · Score: 1

    Except thats not what they do and who knows if they even know how. All they do is knock out a website, or deface it with a "derp, derp. lulz"

  18. Re:To Which the Reaction Will Be on Open Letter By Eric S. Raymond To Chris Dodd · · Score: 1

    Yes, lets ask them how knocking out a webpage really hurts the organization. Do they think that the FBI and MasterCard are even inconvenienced when their website is shut down? It's the equivalent of defacing a billboard.

    If that's all they can do, they need to reconsider why they exist.

  19. Re:So how are they powered? on After US v. Jones, FBI Turns Off 3,000 GPS Tracking Devices · · Score: 4, Informative

    They are not that small. The battery pack is about a foot long.

  20. Re:can you hear me now? on Fraunhofer IIS Demos Full-HD Voice Over LTE On Android · · Score: 1

    The only tool is the person who cares what someone else uses or cares about.

  21. Re:The US market is really confusion on T-Mobile Announces LTE Network · · Score: 1

    If you go to a corporate AT&T store, they will give you a pre-pay sim card for free.

  22. Re:Amusing gadget on Google Heads Up Display Coming By the End of the Year · · Score: 1

    To be fair, it's still ridiculous looking to see people talking with a Bluetooth earpiece. I don't see them very often, though. Maybe twice per week.

  23. Re:Are all deaths equal? on Study Says E-prescription Systems Would Save At Least 50k Lives a Year · · Score: 1

    If they are preventable deaths, yes they are equal.

  24. Re:Way too little, way too late on Apple Settles Antennagate Class-Action Lawsuit · · Score: 4, Funny

    Thanks for littering, asshole.

  25. Not well thought out on Tesla Reveals Its Model X Gullwing SUV · · Score: 1

    How exactly am I going to open gullwing doors in my garage? SUVs are already taller that a regular car.
