  1. Re:Good on Have We Hit Peak HFT? · · Score: 1
    HFT is the reason why I bailed out of forex. As a LFT (low frequency trader) i was smoked more often than not. Taxing the system in any form is not the answer as that would have LFT's and independent brokers taxed out of the market - HFTs won't care about any tax they'll just pass it along and write it off. Tra-la-la.

    IMHO, the only way to fix this broken system is to significantly reduce the amount of trades a HFT can perform in a time frame such as 1 second or perhaps a minute. A harkin/defazio tax will only serve to further break an already broken system.

  2. All Hail the Governator!! on Arnold Schwarzenegger Will Be Back As the Terminator · · Score: 2

    I for one more than welcome the Governator T1, T2 and T3 were great sci-fi, wonderful time travel paradox films and fantastic examples of the genre. The first 3 films were solid story telling with a solid and consistent POV. Brilliant. Not great, but brilliant. Each movie was a solid 7.5 to 8 out of 10 compared to movies like Fast & Furious or Abrams' Star Trek. T5 is something I would see opening weekend just like i did with the dismal failure of T4 which despite it's name and hype was not a terminator movie and was literally nothing more than "a day in the life of" movie. T4 did not create nor solve a time travel paradox though it had many opportunities - mr big man nolan missed the point completely. I welcome T5 and another opportunity to mark judgment day on my calendar.

  3. How is this Hitting A Cap?? on FiOS User Finds Limit of 'Unlimited' Data Plan: 77 TB/Month · · Score: 1

    Completely misleading article and title. This has nothing hitting an invisible cap. His high usage exposed him abusing the TOS and nothing else. Fair, fine and dandy. If this were my ISP I wouldn't give him until July to switch to a business account I'd automagically retro the billing to a business account for the last 6 months and then he can fight it out with the billing dept.

  4. Cause that is what the bureaucrats who come up with this kind of shit say.

    They don't care if they are wrong since there is no process to give a shit if they are wrong.

    Our constitutions were written in a day (even 50 years ago) and an age where integrity mattered and we all had beliefs which we stood up for and defended proudly. Not so today. Constitutions without consequence are meaningless, in my country and in all countries on this planet.

  5. Re:Tinnitus Sufferer Here on Making Earbuds That Fit (Video) · · Score: 1

    the sound that you hear is sound that is not going into that other persons ears, so it really isn't doing much if any damage at all - except for bugging you of course ahahahahaha.

  6. Future Dot..... on Ask Slashdot: How To React To Coworker Who Says My Code Is Bad? · · Score: 2

    How to react to the coworker who complains to you that a coworker thinks that his coding is bad.

  7. It's Been Happening.. on Grim Picture of Polar Ice-Sheet Loss · · Score: 2

    It's been happening for the the last 12K Years, I think it is about time someone took notice.

  8. There is no choice... on Ask Slashdot: Best Linux Game For Young Kids? · · Score: 1

    doom^^3 - children must learn at an early age.

  9. Re:The Name on Gimp 2.8 Finally Released · · Score: 1

    really makes you wonder about the FAIL mentality of genius devs

  10. Re:There is no Higgs Boson on No Higgs Just Yet · · Score: 1

    The models that we are using today to describe the universe are hopelessly inadequate. In my view there is no Higgs boson. A whole lot of stuff that we consider fundamental today in reality should be derived from underlying properties. Mass and gravity as most noticeable examples. There is no Higgs, but keep looking so that everyone else can be convinced it does not exist.

    or hows about the top quark - mass of a gold atom with no structure.. sure..

  11. Re:Randi is a numbnut... on Facebook Exec: Online Anonymity Must Go Away · · Score: 1

    Randi Zuckerberg is a f***ing toon. Putting everything on the internet makes you the most prone dumba** for identity theft. Post your birthdate (usually a security question), post your hometown (also a security question), oh and link your family while you're at it (ALSO a security question). Why not just say who your favorite superhero is... oh did I mention... that's a security question too. Why not post your phone number and everything else...

    He's a f***ing numbnut who got lucky. That's it. Other than that he's got no common sense or intuition.

    mod this coward parent poster up !

    if "they" really want to find me "they" can and "they" will - nobody else needs my real name to do anything unless I want them to.

    Real names zealots have been around since UUnet days and their sky hasn't fallen into the mayhem and chaos they proselytize however I'd be willing to bet that Anders Breivik posted using his real name on facebook. Sorta proves the point don't it.

  12. All that's missing is... on Where To Start In DIY Electronics? · · Score: 1

    Lots of suggestions of really good books but why waste your time? Take a qualified electronics technician certificate course over the net or at your local college! Looks great on the resume and then augment that with ham certification for the jurisdiction you live in.. and then, and only then will geek chicks think that you are cool.

  13. Dupe on Scientists Witness Meteor Strike on the Moon · · Score: 5, Informative

    Yes, to indulge in pagaen ritual required at this time of Yule to encourage the sun to return and shorten the length of the night and make the days longer once again.

    I spend at least 2 hours every day on public transit.
