    What the fuck are you smoking? PNG was in use around 1996-1997. I remember that being a savable file format in Paint Shop Pro.

    People got stupid and moved to Telegram.

  3. Re:A photon is not an "object" on First Object Teleported From Earth To Orbit (technologyreview.com) · · Score: 1

    Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared.

    Thus, for a photon to have energy, it must have some mass.

    Otherwise E=MC^2 is wrong.

  4. What a moronic statement on Seattle City Council Unanimously Approves Income Tax For the Rich (geekwire.com) · · Score: 1

    "income is property and under the constitution, property tax has to be taxed uniformly and no more than 1 percent."

    Yea? Explain why I'm taxed way more than that on my paycheck, please.

    Meanwhile, I demonstrated it to my mother in law, a devout Apple user. She went straight back to using her card instead.

    Have fun getting fucked, dumbass. Man can make it, man can break it. Zero fucking exceptions exist on this planet.

    It works, especially on hardware 4S and below, but don't let your fucking lack of trying stop you from believing otherwise, asshole.

    Apple claims security. Apple is fucking LYING to you. Security is nothing but theater.

    Back to your hole.

    As if the ability to clone hardware doesn't exist.....

    Especially the older unprotected 4-series hardware.

    Meanwhile the rest of you can keep thinking about 'current' tech while I'm focusing on the tech that's already out in consumer hands.

  8. C'mon fucking editors on Trump Administration Officially Delays 'Startup Visa' Rule (sfchronicle.com) · · Score: 1

    "The International Entrepreneur Rule, is the closest the United States has come to the "startup visa" Silicon Valley has long sought, was approved by the Department of Homeland Security in January during President Barack Obama's waning hours in office."

    How about we re-write this as such:

    "The International Entrepreneur Rule, the closest the US has come to enacting a "startup VISA" which Silicon Valley has long sought, was approved by DHS in January during Barack Obama's last hours in office."

    Now it makes more linguistic sense.

    Holy shit, Slashdot. You promised so much with your buyout and yet msmash and the rest can't fucking live up to the promises.

    BASIC FUCKING ENGLISH. Did *ANY* of the /. editors graduate high school?

    Fuck birth certificates, I demand to see fucking DIPLOMAS.

    Pretty safe if you don't do stupid shit like go walking in the ghetto dressed up like you're the next Donald Trump.

    You can just use your nice high-def camera on your phone to capture someone's Apple Pay screen, say while you're behind them in line and they're getting ready to pay. Free access to ApplePay account with just a picture, no hacking required.

    No, the technical term is 'array.'

    The "troll" is a minor, thus coercion of a minor is FUCKING ILLEGAL, you legally-challenged fuckwit.

    This might be possible. A Pentium-II on current die tech would be so small that pretty much transistor switching speed is your only concern. However you'd need the 82459AD-version L2 cache controller/Tag RAM chip to address 3.5-4GB RAM.

  21. "That is irrelevant to the merits of solar going forward."

    No, it isn't, when flexible perovskite solar cells are coming around and they're based from methylammonium lead iodide.

    "Those have not been made in commercial quantities."

    They just hit 22% efficiency last year compared to 3% back in 2009. They'll be out VERY soon.

    Uh, to the other states, that is exactly that - free money and power. Where in your brain did this malfunction occur?

  23. "Solar panels don't contain lead."

    The ones made in the 80s used lead solder at their electrical connections.

    "Likewise, solar panels don't contain chromium "

    Flexible perovskite solar cells most certainly contain a layer of chromium oxide.
