  1. Re:Meanwhile on Australian Target Stores Ban GTA V For Depictions of Violence Against Women · · Score: 1

    Anything on the internet focused on making a profit has gone to a click-bait business model. Slashdot is a business like any other.

  2. Re:"Two" times, not ten times on Corning Reveals Gorilla Glass 4, Promises No More Broken IPhones · · Score: 1

    10 = 2 though.

  3. Re:Ideological purity ... on Openwashing: Users and Adopters Beware · · Score: 1

    Closed source isn't evil. But then again, neither was Hitler, from his own point of view.

  4. Re:simple on Chromebooks Overtake iPads In US Education Market · · Score: 1

    Or the new 11" one. It's no X131e but it's a grade above dell/acer.

  5. Re:Uh yeah? on Chromebooks Overtake iPads In US Education Market · · Score: 1

    The C720 and HP 11 are some of the finest, highest quality laptops i've ever laid hands on short of a thinkpad. Web does not need hiDPI, plenty of models come with IPS screens cheap, and the keyboards are all ~good enough~. I sent a CB to my parents, with no instruction or guidance, and have not heard a peep other than "this is awesome and is now my primary computer'. No support overhead at all... It is the literal epitome of "just works". But, hey, you want to luddite, be a luddite, I won't stop you.

  6. Re:The fact remains... on DOOM 3DO Source Released On Github · · Score: 1

    A trans woman hitting on you does not in any way violate your...straight pride.

  7. Re:Who needs Obamacare?? on Who Needs NASA? Exoplanet Detected Using a DSLR · · Score: 1

    Jesus would frown upon your racism.

  8. Re:Everyone hates Ruby on Is Ruby On Rails Losing Steam? · · Score: 1

    Who needs code speed? We've got 4ghz haswells that'll brute any application to decent speed.

  9. Re:when dirty? on Jackie Chan Discs Help Boost Solar Panel Efficiency · · Score: 3, Interesting

    The data density in bluray means that the pits are far, far, far, far too small for dirt to get stuck in, or on. Think of it like placing a pebble on a beach. There are pits between sand grains but the size disparity means it acts like a flat surface for most intents and purposes.

  10. Re:What about long-term data integrity? on How Intel and Micron May Finally Kill the Hard Disk Drive · · Score: 1

    Intel 320 8mb bug too but that was firmware. I've not had any issues at all with my crucial or Sammy Evo 250gb though...

  11. Re:What about long-term data integrity? on How Intel and Micron May Finally Kill the Hard Disk Drive · · Score: 1

    I loved that line of enterprise 500gb drives they made once that all failed on the same day across multiple data centers... fun times.

  12. Re:sooo.... on Complex Life May Be Possible In Only 10% of All Galaxies · · Score: 1

    90% of the human population gets off on shit like honey-booboo. We aren't going to space any time soon.

  13. Re:Perspective on LinkedIn Study: US Attracting Fewer Educated, Highly Skilled Migrants · · Score: 2

    "freedom" in the US is just a Stockholm syndrome illusion that everybody consensually hallucinates about constantly.

  14. Re:See what you did Slashdot? on LinkedIn Study: US Attracting Fewer Educated, Highly Skilled Migrants · · Score: 1

    Good, more jobs for the skilled locals that won't bend over and take a low wage in the ass for highly technical work.

  15. Re:Here we go again on As Amazon Grows In Seattle, Pay Equity For Women Declines · · Score: 3, Funny

    Liberterians are usually sane, pleasant people. AC's are not.

  16. Re:Not anywhere near "dead easy" yet. on Firefox Signs Five-Year Deal With Yahoo, Drops Google as Default Search Engine · · Score: 1

    You mean RomneyCare right? He originated it nearly verbatim as it stands now. We'd have that in some form no matter who won that election. It benefits insurance companies too much.

  17. Re:Elections are Popularity Contests on How Facebook Is Influencing Who Will Win the Next Election · · Score: 1

    So just because some small group of CIA funded terrorists are cutting off heads, that justifies the destruction of democracy and civil liberties on US soil and empirical over-reach in the middle east?

  18. Re:It's an Intel Atom on Nokia's N1 Android Tablet Is Actually a Foxconn Tablet · · Score: 1

    Apple already has 20nm in retail. Intel won't retail a 14nm product until sometime in 2015.

  19. Re:The click-bait FUD continues on Elite: Dangerous Dumps Offline Single-Player · · Score: 1

    As a backer, who plays the beta constantly, I have every right to say: Fuck the devs. I'll be doing a charge-back if they can't fulfill their own damned promises. This game will be dead in 2 years once they shut the servers off for greener pastures. I've seen it happen many dozens of times.

  20. Re:Huh on Comet Probe Philae To Deploy Drill As Battery Life Wanes · · Score: 2

    Because that's all science ever is, some scam to get money. Understanding the universe better is just an annoying side effect that they don't give a shit about.

    People always say this, but they neglect to mention WHICH FEDERAL LAWS are being broken daily by everybody.

    There is no such thing as a Yoga 2 for 299. They're 499 and up. Nice try though.

    The AC post was not I, but I do agree with it.

    You mean, other than video? Video that was created during a time before there was literally any capacity at all to create a convincing fake?

    It's funny how none of you shills ever post from a real account.
