  1. Re:Quantity over Quality on Apple's App Store Celebrates 10th Anniversary (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    Please list the rest of the free good iOS games. ;)

  2. Re:And I don't have one. on How Smart TVs in Millions of US Homes Track More Than What's on Tonight (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Outside is overrated though!

  3. What about on demand payments? on Netflix is Testing a New 'Ultra' Tier of Service (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Instead of subscriptions? :/

  4. Re:So anyone else... on Already at Movie Theaters Near You: Ticket Subscriptions (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Hey. Shut up. You're too noisy online too. :) Yeah, I watch mostly at home as well due to my old body that likes to pee, poop, move around, etc. I also can rewind, skip, fast forward, etc. on my demand. I can't do that in theaters. :(

  5. Finally, the year of Linux with Red Hat! ;)

  6. Not just away! on The Secret to Disconnecting? Bring Back the 'Away' Message (wsj.com) · · Score: 1

    Invisibilty, do not disturb, idled, custom status, etc.

  7. Re: Maybe I'm cynical... on Sony Blunders By Uploading Full Movie To YouTube Instead of Trailer (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 1

    Shouldn't the trailers also be compressed heavily to H264?

  8. Not vinyl records! on Best Buy Stops Selling Music CDs (cbsnews.com) · · Score: 1

    "... Interestingly, though, Best Buy will continue to sell vinyl records for the next two years. Vinyl has seen a resurgence lately, with vinyl album sales last year at a 27-year-high, according to Billboard..." from that article link.

    I am surprised that is doing better than CDs for Best Buy!

  9. Re:Blocking is so low on Facebook Apologizes For Bug That Unblocked 800,000 People (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 1

    Time to block you! :P

  10. Re:unprofessional, but turnabout? on Ask Slashdot: Have You Ever 'Ghosted' an Employer? (linkedin.com) · · Score: 1

    Yep, even after following up. Some don't even let you follow up due to automations. :(

  11. Re:Minority Report was right... on UK Police Plan To Deploy 'Staggeringly Inaccurate' Facial Recognition in London (independent.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    It's funny how we have popular movies, TV shows, books, etc. and many people still care not.

  12. How so? Its usability is crap!

  13. And I still get sick with all the pollens, dusts, etc. even when not cleaned. :(

  14. Re:I have unplugged my Echo last month on Amazon Wants You To Turn Your Fire Tablet Into a Portable Echo (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Pull everything that can watch and hear!

  15. Or just go off the grid completely. ;)

  16. Re:Meanwhile, at the other end of the scale ... on Finally, It's the Year of the Linux... Supercomputer (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Frakkin Cylons! No wonder they have a plan.

  17. Re:Sneaky on Voices of Millions of UK Taxpayers Stored By HMRC (bbc.co.uk) · · Score: 1
  18. Re:Trump and Xi should date. on China Blocks HBO After John Oliver's Last Week Tonight Mockery of Xi Jinping (scmp.com) · · Score: 1

    What about Kim Jong-un? Shouldn't he be there too? :P

  19. Ditto. Even 2008 worked decently. I wished Apple still sold these as new. :(

  20. Re:Restaurants to avoid? on That Tablet On The Table At Your Favorite Restaurant Is Hurting Your Waiter (buzzfeed.com) · · Score: 1

    Yep. I am sure you guys have a bunch of restaurants that other states don't too. :D

  22. Re:Restaurants to avoid? on That Tablet On The Table At Your Favorite Restaurant Is Hurting Your Waiter (buzzfeed.com) · · Score: 1

    What about Marie's Calendars, YardHouse, Cheesecake Factory, Black Angus, Romano's Macaroni Grill, BJ's, and Buca di Beppo? I haven't seen any tablets used there so far.

  23. Not everything is on Netflix!

  24. Re:Monitors on Ubuntu Makes Public Desktop Metrics (ubuntu.com) · · Score: 1

    I bought a 22" 1080p HD monitor in the end of 2014 because my old 5:4 19" LCD monitor was having power issues. Same for HDTV since I didn't want to move the heavy Sharp 20" CRT TV to the new nest. Same for many other things. I just don't bother buying the (lat/new)est stuff anymore due to their high costs, bugginess, incompatibilities, etc. I'm old now. :(

  25. Re:Even when THEY lock you out on Facebook Will Harass You Mercilessly If You Try To Break Up (slate.com) · · Score: 1

    Ditto. I had the same issue since I didn't want to use my real name. :(
