  10. Re:Not sure what to think on Tumblr Co-Founder: Apple's Software Is In a Nosedive · · Score: 1

    I will later on. I am fine with my very old hardware and software. When something blows up, then I will move on! I am not even making backups of OS drive. ;)

  11. Re:I think the thing being missed here on Why We're Not Going To See Sub-orbital Airliners · · Score: 1

    I wished Concorde would return.

  13. Re:I'm amazed on How Long Will It Take Streaming To Dominate the Music Business? · · Score: 1

    Ditto. I don't mind listening to new music online, but I prefer listening to my own collection of favorite (song/tune)s.

  14. Re:Not sure what to think on Tumblr Co-Founder: Apple's Software Is In a Nosedive · · Score: 1

    This is why I never get the (new/lat)est stuff anymore. Costly, buggy, etc. Look, I use Debian stable, Windows XP Pro SP3, old stuff, etc. because they work for me what I need to do.

  15. Re:Any actual examples? on Tumblr Co-Founder: Apple's Software Is In a Nosedive · · Score: 1

    It pisses me off that Apple doesn't let us downgrade/restore old versions. :(

  16. Re:If only there was a way for Slashdot editors on Netflix Begins Blocking Users Who Bypass Region Locks · · Score: 1

    /. is slow and old news compared to others like Reddit these days. Remember when Reddit, Digg, etc. didn't exist and /. was the place to get the news? :(

  17. I wanted to try it at E3 last year (even met Dave Braben in person too :D -- http://aqfl.net/node/11029 for my blog and blurry photo(graph)s!), but someone was hogging it so I just played in 2D (can't see 3D anyways and my bone conduction hearing aid would get in the way with the VR headset :P).

  18. Cooking, washing, etc. on What Isn't There an App For? · · Score: 1

    Can any apps do that for me? :P

    Well, 3.5" disk(ette)s on very old IBM test PCs to boot off to use Ghost.

  20. Re:Chinglish on What Language Will the World Speak In 2115? · · Score: 1

    For me, I was born in USA from my Chinese parents. All the older generation people are legal immigrANTs, so they speak Chinese natively. However, I can't even communicate English very well due to my disabilities. I even struggled with Spanish since I live in a Latino area for a secondary language requirements. :(

  21. Re:Live theater is better. on Box Office 2014: Moviegoing Hits Two-Decade Low · · Score: 1

    But they're boring. No explosions, action scenes, etc. [grin]

  22. Re:Dice = Contract Jobs on Hunting For a Tech Job In 2015 · · Score: 3, Interesting

    So, what are good web sites that are not like Dice.com these days then? I used to use it back in early 2000s.

  23. If they want to invade us during non-business hours, then they should still pay us too. If not, then stop it.

    Its what? :P

  25. Re:Also.. on Is the Tablet Market In Outright Collapse? Data Suggests Yes · · Score: 1

    I upgraded my client's old iPhone 4S to iOS 8 from v7.1.2. I warned him of the side effects. Slower, more resources, and unable to revert/downgrade. He was OK with that even thought it was slower. At least he has security fixes for now.
