  1. Re:Right ... on The Android L Update For Nvidia Shield Portable Removes Features · · Score: 1

    Solitaire is for chumps. All the cool kids know that 3D Pinball is where it's at.

  2. Re:It may not be an OpenSSH bug ... on The OpenSSH Bug That Wasn't · · Score: 1

    That's because your parser's broken.

  3. Breaking themes and extensions with every new release isn't a useful feature? Who could tell?

  4. Re:Isn't Flash extinct? on New Default: Mozilla Temporarily Disables Flash In Firefox · · Score: 1

    Well, I was wanting to listen to some James Brown.

    OTOH, if I'd visited YT due to an attempt at rickrolling me...

    Opera.

    The latest version of Chromium appears to be good for little other than crashing my desktop on startup.

    I don't know how useful you consider the site, but this morning's Firefox update broke YouTube for me.

  7. Ignored Posted Signs on Man Arrested After Charging iPhone On London Overground Train · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The guy ignored the signs on the outlets stating that they were for use by cleaners only, not by passengers.

    The police dropped the original charge but he apparently couldn't keep from mouthing off to the officers involved about it so they arrested him again.

    *Yawn*

  8. Re:As a Flash hobbyist... on Facebook's New Chief Security Officer Wants To Set a Date To Kill Flash · · Score: 1

    Formerly known as Jasc Trajectory Pro--a product I once held high hopes for, until Adobe assimilated it.

  9. Re:Do your part nerds! on Facebook's New Chief Security Officer Wants To Set a Date To Kill Flash · · Score: 2

    I don’t hit many problems other than the BBC insist on using Flash to serve video and increasingly serve articles as video only (sigh)

    Makes it easier to hide the increasing number of spelling and grammatical errors seen in BBC articles.

    HomestarRunner already has you covered.

    Eh? My Android tablet supports Flash.

    I'd miss MyBrute.

  13. Re:How about 2015 July 15 0000UTC? on Facebook's New Chief Security Officer Wants To Set a Date To Kill Flash · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Interactive Advertising Bureau. Who'd've thought there could be such a thing?

  14. Mummy still pays your Internet bill? How nice for you.

    Is ActiveX still required for any online banking in South Korea?

  16. I use Firefox on Linux, and I've no trouble obtaining or using Flash for it.

    The Flamebait mod does nothing to alter the fact that I am still waiting for some examples.

    It does, however, tend to make me believe that you've none to offer.

  18. Re:And, privacy and security? on ELIoT, Distributed Programming For the Internet of Things · · Score: 2

    I would just prefer that I not come home to find my flat reduced to smouldering rubble because some marketroid thinks I just have to be able to turn my stove on at home while I'm at the office... and some script kiddy with time on his hands finds a 'sploit for mine.

  19. Re:Iot vs SoD on ELIoT, Distributed Programming For the Internet of Things · · Score: 1

    I'm on the "shitstorm of devices which have no fucking reason to be networked" side of the aisle, myself.

    I'm sure they felt good about themselves after they wrote it.

  21. Re:Disable Java == Broken Websites on First Java 0-Day In 2 Years Exploited By Pawn Storm Hackers · · Score: 1

    Nvidia: Unlike (apparently) some people, I know what card, platform, and OS I'm using, and so get along just fine without the driver scanner, thanks.

    KeepVid: Um, there's a Firefox extension for that, you know.

    Posted as kheldan...

    TFTFY. (Ooops!)

    BTW, I also despise JJ Abrams, his abject cluelessness, and his anti-Midas touch that turns cool things into shit. And I don't care who knows it.
