  1. Re:What an opportunity! on Greek Financial Crisis Is an Opportunity For Bitcoin · · Score: 3, Insightful

    You should trust trustworthy algorithms, not just all algorithms. Bitcoin in particular is a pyramid scheme algorithm.

  2. Re:Whack a mole on Ask Toolbar Now Considered Malware By Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Same here. Maybe he doesn't have adblock installed.

  3. Re:Fear of guns on Stormtrooper Arrested · · Score: 1
    You're right about consequences. I'm merely pointing out that escalating things by carrying a gun means that anyone who attacks you will do so with deadly force. Can't we all just go back to fist fights? :D

    Grow the fuck up, people will do things you don't approve of but no one made you judge, jury, and executioner of what is right or wrong.

    Double standard much?

  4. Re:Could you tell a difference at distance? on Stormtrooper Arrested · · Score: 1

    Unless this guy is the slowest walker on earth, I can't imagine how he managed to be seen by someone, that someone told the principal, the principle called the police, and eventually the police showed up before he was gone. I tend to agree with the loitering charge.

  5. Re:Could you tell a difference at distance? on Stormtrooper Arrested · · Score: 1

    So is it impossible to put a plastic surround on a real gun?

  6. Re:Fear of guns on Stormtrooper Arrested · · Score: 1

    That's why you have to take him out with the initial attack. Guns are useless when the holder isn't immediately ready to use it.

  7. Re:I could live with a post-show teaser... on Netflix Is Experimenting With Advertising · · Score: 1

    "better resolution than Netflix". Yeah, good luck with that. You have something higher than 4K on your offline copies?

  8. According to https://pcpartpicker.com/trends/price/video-card/#gpu.chipset.geforce-gtx-980 the 980 GTX has maintained the same price for nearly a year now.

  9. Re:Same performance different Memory Capacity on NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 980 Ti Costs $350 Less Than TITAN X, Performs Similarly · · Score: 1

  10. Re:Propaganda not trolling on Professional Internet Troll Sues Her Former Employer · · Score: 1

    Pro-pot lobby? Who would the backers of that be? lol.

  11. Re:So the concept of Putlerbot sockpuppet is true! on Professional Internet Troll Sues Her Former Employer · · Score: 1

    Now I have to wonder if all the stories and images of Putin being a general bad-ass are real or if they're all just a carefully orchestrated p.r. campaign.

  12. Re:*Badly on Windows 10 Can Run Reworked Android and iOS Apps · · Score: 1

    You only care about boot times? I don't think I've turned my phone off once this year.

  13. Re:It's finally time on Feds Say It's Time To Cut Back On Fluoride In Drinking Water · · Score: 2

    What? You guys must be anomalies, because every single medieval movie set in Britain I've seen has lots of people missing teeth.

  14. Re:Given that adblock stops ads cold... meh on Google To Offer Ad-Free YouTube - At a Price · · Score: 1

    I've tried to turn my blocker off a few times, but ads are so pervasive and annoying that I can't even last 5 minutes and re-enable them.

  15. I would mod you terrorist, but there isn't an option :(

  16. Re:Slow on World's First 1 Megawatt All-Electric Race Car · · Score: 1

    Let's see how fast any of these cars make it up pike's peak. Apparently you have never heard of gearing.

  17. Re:ugh....fluff on Focusing On Tech Alone, You Miss How Autonomous Driving Will Change Society · · Score: 1

    The cars will never be able to handle heavy rain, snow, hail, sleet, fog and freezing rain. That is a lot of days you won't be getting to work.

    Oh the tragedy! A few days off!!!

  18. Re:Russians on Obama Authorizes Penalties For Foreign Cyber Attackers · · Score: 1

    We'd be happy to get our own government to do anything - well anything useful.

  19. Re:I already love it... on Amazon Moves "Buy Now" Into the Physical World, With the Dash Button · · Score: 1

    I figure this Amazon Dash is why they are pushing drones so hard. Imagine a future where everything we need is delivered straight to our homes as we need them.

  20. Re:Perhaps less noise, but wider spread on Amazon Tests Delivery Drones At Secret Canada Site After US Frustration · · Score: 1

    They just need to get that stealth prop technology the black helicopters use :D

  21. Re:Still waiting for a "hackability meter" on Many Password Strength Meters Are Downright Weak, Researchers Say · · Score: 1

    The only real protection is to use different passwords for every service you care about.

  22. Re: Trust, but verify. on Wikipedia Admin's Manipulation "Messed Up Perhaps 15,000 Students' Lives" · · Score: 1

    I like how Reagon got that phrase from the Soviets :D

  23. Re:Communication methods on Hack Air-Gapped Computers Using Heat · · Score: 1

    People can't even reliably plug USB drives in.

  24. Re:SLOW.... on Hack Air-Gapped Computers Using Heat · · Score: 1

    In addition to all that, both machines have to be essentially idle, so the heat differences can even be noticed.

  25. Re:Tried it? on Microsoft Is Killing Off the Internet Explorer Brand · · Score: 1

    Why should we try some browser called Spartan when Chrome and Firefox have actual features and run fine?
