  1. "disillusioned Juicero buyers"

  2. Timecrimes (2007) on Slashdot Asks: What's Your Favorite Sci-Fi Movie? · · Score: 2

    Not best, but pretty good and different. Made in 2007, but looks like it was made in the 70's.

  3. Re:"found there way" on Trademark Trolls Stops University Nicknames · · Score: 1

    They should watch this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

  4. Re:Enough on Certifi-gate: Another Huge Android Vulnerability · · Score: 2
  5. Obligatory bash.org? on Ask Slashdot: Why Is the Caps Lock Key Still So Prominent On Keyboards? · · Score: 1
  6. Re:Americans have limited Free Speech on Aussie Public Servant Criticises Gov't On Twitter, Gets Sacked · · Score: 1

    Because that will land him in jail. He would rather do the right thing and keep his mouth shut, because he still values his limited freedom of not being locked up.

  7. Wow. How stupid. on NHTSA and DOT Want Your Car To Be Able To Disable Your Cellphone Functions · · Score: 1

    Just last week, a woman was driving next to me and, I kid you not, was writing in a notebook on here steering wheel. Just fine these people into oblivion and remove their licences.

  8. Blackmail on Pirate Bay Shifts Connections From Sweden To Ease Heat on Pirate Party · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Is it only called blackmail if you are not a registered corporation?

  9. Re:even more savings on Power-Saving Web Pages: Real Or Myth? · · Score: 1

    I don't consider $1.2M/year to be a minute amount of money.

    Any number can look impressive without context.
    Let's divide that impressive $1.2M per year by 12 months and then by the 1 billion uniques that Google is getting per month. This will give you the grand total of a fraction of a cent per user per month saving.
    And seeing that this is distributed globally, there is no power plant that will see any significant drop in power generation even if the whole world switch over.

  10. Encouraging on GreenSQL is a Database Security Solution, says CTO David Maman (Video) · · Score: 1

    And by encouraging, I mean, encouraging devs everywhere to write even more sloppy code.

  11. Re:Yeah...thanks, I guess on Hungary's Needy Given Money to Burn · · Score: 5, Informative

    "Our examination showed that the heating properties of these shredded currency briquettes are similar to brown coal so they are pretty useful for heating and resolve the problem to find fuel."

  12. Re:So is every ISP on Moglen: Facebook Is a Man-In-The-Middle Attack · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Your ISP can see which websites you visit, how long you spend there, how often you visit the site and what time of day you go there. It will be easy enough to build a profile on a user with just this information.

  13. Work for yourself, not others. on Ask Slashdot: Money-Making Home-Based Tech Skills? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    If you are interested in learning a web development language, use that skills to work on a idea for your own sites. When I started learning web development, I created a small on-line tool that people can use. Every time I learned a new language, I've re-written the web app in that particular language as an exercise. So my little webapp went from Perl, PHP, Python WSGI to the current Python Django. Now after a few years, I'm getting 1.5K visitors a day and earning about $300 a month for doing nothing. So instead of working for someone else at $100 per project, I starting on some new ideas and seeing if I can earn more recurring income while sipping on a beer. The only hard part is finding the idea to work on.

  14. Re:two suggestions on Ask Slashdot: Mirrorless, Interchangeable Lens Camera Advice? · · Score: 1

    This is so true. I always try to convince people to look at sensor size instead of megapixels. The quality of your photo depends on sensor size, not megapixels.

  15. Which William Shatner on Ask William Shatner Whatever You'd Like · · Score: 3, Interesting

    What are the biggest differences between William Shatner (the man) and William Shatner (the character)? Do you always do interviews as William Shatner (the character), or do we see some of the real man behind him?

  16. Re:As always... on Another Study Attacks Violent Video Games, Claims To Be "Conclusive" · · Score: 1

    Everybody knows bread is causing the violence. Most violent teens eat bread. http://www.gammacrew.com/2010/02/bread-silent-killer-in-school-shootings.html
