  1. That's for plebs.

  2. Pay 2 Win! on In 18 Years, A College Degree Could Cost About $500,000 (buzzfeed.com) · · Score: 1

    Do you also have to buy the DLCs for your degree?

  3. Oh wait...

  4. Re:Yeah, this got me as well on Amazon's Cloud Service Has Outage, Disrupting Sites (usatoday.com) · · Score: 1

    That's nice, but you can't blame a 3rd party, your users don't care about excuses.

  5. Re:will probably take off with next gen hardware on Valve's Gabe Newell Says Only 30 SteamVR Apps Have Made $250,000+ (roadtovr.com) · · Score: 1

    My biggest complain about VR is the dirt. One tiny little particle of dust ruins the experience, and it is so hard to keep it clean.

  6. Not impressed on You Can Make Any Number Out of Four 4s Because Math Is Amazing (youtube.com) · · Score: 1

    An operator is essentially a little function that has one or two arguments. It hides the information you use to make those numbers. If you want, you can invent infinite number of so called operators, to produce each number. They don't even have to take an argument of 4s.

  7. It's You vs Goldman. Always.

  8. I'm still on 6.x. If they disable that, that is the end of my adventure with Skype. A chat window must be small, no sidebars, no conversation bubbles, no huge profile pics, because I keep it open on the desktop the whole time.

  9. Not the "5k" model, but I never had any problem with this under Windows and connected to PS4 Pro.

  10. Re:ENDED is not a verb on Galileo Satellites Are Experiencing Multiple Clock Failures (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Is "started" also not a verb? Also a foreigner here. Just asking to be smarter.

  11. I miss CRTs on 3D TV Is Dead (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Only for old console gaming. I am a bit sad that I never bought one of those 120Hz slim CRTs at the end of their life. There is a huge and heave Sony still at home, but cannot watch its flickering.

  12. Re:Still lightyears off of today's PC hardware on Microsoft Relaxing Xbox One Kinect Requirements, Giving GPU Power a Boost? · · Score: 3, Funny

    The funny part is, even after 8 years the release of xbox 360, we still can't run all our games in 1080p.

  13. Add some non-ASCII characters on Yep, People Are Still Using '123456' and 'Password' As Passwords In 2014 · · Score: 1

    You may be able to brute force 256*8 numbers, but never the whole unicode range. (pässwörd)

  14. Re:I don't mind metered internet usage... on An Iowa ISP's Metered Pricing: What Will the Market Bear? · · Score: 1

    Let's say the average subscriber watches television 1 hour a day. Anything above that will cost you more than you pay now. How does that sound?

  15. Re:I don't mind metered internet usage... on An Iowa ISP's Metered Pricing: What Will the Market Bear? · · Score: 1

    The equipment do cost money, but if it's already there, why leave it running unused? That makes no sense. Like the electricity at night is wasted because it cannot be stored. Every second the maximum capacity is not used, that's a forever lost opportunity to transmit data.

  16. Re:About bloody time on Rise of the Super-High-Res Notebook Display · · Score: 1

    Or just order a replacement from china. You can probably find one cheap in 1080p and matte. That's what I did after mine broke, it was also an upgrade from 1600x900, so I was pretty pleased with the end result.

  17. Give us 4320i! on Rise of the Super-High-Res Notebook Display · · Score: 1

    For the lulz.

  18. Blade Runner on 25,000-Drive Study Gives Insight On How Long Hard Drives Actually Last · · Score: 1

    This makes me wonder if those replicants in Blade Runner were just common consumer products, not really designed to fail after a few years. Is there anything man made that can function longer than we live? I'm sure there are a few rare examples, but why is it so hard to create something that outlives us?

  19. Re:Disappearing Bitcoins on DOJ Hasn't Actually Found Silk Road Founder's Bitcoin Yet · · Score: 1

    Currencies aren't processed as floats, there are special number formats with fixed number of decimals for databases and programming languages.

  20. Re:slowly but steadily MS and Nokia will rise agai on Nokia Lumia 1020 Video and Photo Shoot Preview · · Score: 1

    I don't get what people liked about Symbian. It was slow, crashed, and the anyone who saw its horrific sdk praised microsoft for creating windows ce.

  21. All those moments will be lost in time... on Epic Online Space Battle · · Score: 2

    like tears in rain...

  22. Re:CPU=Critical Patch Update on To Avoid Confusion: Oracle's Confusing New Java Numbering Scheme · · Score: 1

    This person has obviously never in his life heard of the Central Processing Unit.

  23. There is a competition between them, if one does not offer an iphone, what do you think it will happen to them?

  24. Re:Attacks on bandwidth caps are shortsighted on ISP Trying Free (But Limited) Home Broadband Plan · · Score: 1

    That average usage includes people who subscribe to broadband just to check their email once a week. Why should you pay more because these ignorant people lower the statistics?

  25. Re:RealAlternative is actually copyright infringem on RealNetworks Sues Dutch Webmaster Over Hyperlink To Freeware · · Score: 2

    Yes, there are codecs which should not be there. MPC - the media player in the package - was built with real's own SDK and can play realmedia files without need of any boundled codecs IF realplayer is installed on the machine. (note: I made MPC originally but have nothing to do with any codec packs)
