  1. Re:Eh on Video Game Trends In 2008 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If you are still concerned with a semester of books, then "a while ago" was when you were 15. So young to be jaded.

  2. Re:Hot Drill Bit on Drilling Hits an Active Magma Chamber In Hawaii · · Score: 1

    Conversion percentage [above 1%] is irrelevant when you have an unlimited supply. With 1000C+, and an ocean of H20 in close proximity....

    Spending money for the explicit purpose of getting stuff on the site seems a bit silly

    Really?

    Fail.

  4. Re:NO dotdotdotdot! on Will Consoles Merge Back Into PCs? · · Score: 1

    33%?? I had no idea, that is utterly ludicrous. Sounds like you ought to throw a tea party, nudge nudge. But seriously, that's horrible. They charge 33% regardless of the country you order it from and such?

    Gordon Way of WarForward technologies called. He's filing suit for infringing on his Anthem(c) product, developed by Richard McDuff. Read more Dirk Gently[by Douglas Adams]!

  8. Totally bogus Google salary figure on The Impact of Low Salaries At Apple · · Score: 1

    Erm, I take aerial photos [that are stitched together] for Google earth/maps. I also work about 90 hours a week, 7 days a week, and I've been holed up in a hotel in BFE(Yukon territory, Canada) for the past 15 days eating ramen noodles. With the overtime...about 50k annually, maybe less? Which robot replaceable idiot at Google actually makes 112k for a 40 hour week? I'm envious.

  11. Re:Still no mention of an outliner mode on An Early Look at OpenOffice.org 3.0 · · Score: 1

    What more can I say? This has been requested and brought up for *years*. I really don't get why it's so hard to do, especially considering something that there's already indentation and structure support for lists. I'm not an OOO hacker, but this doesn't seem like something that has a huge technical hurdle preventing it from being done. Requested for years eh? It's called open source, you should have added the feature "years" ago.

    Do these 3 things and I'll never look back to MS Office. You do these 3 things. It's called open source, maybe you've heard of it?
  13. Re:consumer owned telecommunication infrastructure on OLPC Mesh Networking Tester Explains How It Works · · Score: 1

    A no or low cost Autonomous consumer owned telecommunication infrastructure is what will evolve out of this. No more cable, internet, or cell phone bills. No, it won't.

    You might have a small village or education campus implement a community-maintained infrastructure of nodes - but you will not replace mainstream ISP's or Cell providers. That would require everyone making a grand unified switch to mesh networking suddenly at once. Also, who is going to pay for the mesh nodes every 1.5km to cross the oceans in your free-telecommunications-utopia?

    If this takes off [at all], at best expect the equivalent of "free wifi!" in a few isolated towns/campus's. This is simply the next evolution of existing 802.X tech.

    Inability to create something as basic as a network bridge invalidates someones need to operate a virtual machine.

    They may think they need to, but they don't. They also may think they are technically savvy enough to do it, but they aren't.

    A good way to plant this seed is to ask slashdotters to list some "top domain squatters".

    Then we can WHOIS to get addresses and phone numbers to pass on to the squatter-throat-slitters.

    Anyone have some domain squatters they wanna hand over?

    Red Hat is a revolving door for community people. A few stick, many find the dysfunctional management just too much to take. Do you work for Red Hat?

    Obviously you have a boulder-sized chip on your shoulder about them, and lots of opinions about their inner workings.

    Either (a) you work for them and have an issue. Or (b) you don't work for them and are a FUD spreading dipshit.
