  1. Confused, Sony? nope... on PS4: What Sony Should and Shouldn't Do · · Score: 1

    sounds like Chirs Morris needs to get his one PS3 and use it for longer than a year and then get back to us.. "It only does everything" fits.. the only thing i can not do with my PS3 is Like a post on Face Book, that is my only complaint. PS4 should have FireFox built in or Chrome and then it would blow that lame old x-box out of the water. (x-box users.. sorry, my Gaming rig LapTop is better than your x-box. get with it.. made by Microsoft, running Microsoft software and 90% of the games come out on the PC.. so why get an x-box?) Any ways.. back to this horrible horrible Chirs Morris guy.. Sony has had an online meeting hub (PS HOME) since it rolled out. (the Japan one is fun to run around in too to see what will hit us NA users eventually). Games check Videos check Music check Photo viewer check (and a few nice photo journal apps) Motion Controll Check you on the screen check web surfing check & flash check video editing photo editing Video Chatting (since it came out) check Sharing Videos with friends and watch together check

  2. Re:VIN in public view? on What a Black Box Data Dump Looks Like · · Score: 1

    exactly... you don’t cover yours? if no, then why not? - Agreed on the other post, yes the car is totaled but that wasn’t my point of my posting about things being posted that should be personal.

  3. VIN in public view? on What a Black Box Data Dump Looks Like · · Score: 1

    I know i wouldnt be happy if the VIN of my car was posted for the world to see.. you can get keys / key fobs made rather easy to break in and seal things inside or start the car up and go.. nice work everyone for posting this information to the world.

  4. Re:Hmmmmm.... - Archos on Ask Slashdot: Best Android Tablet For Travel? · · Score: 1

    Archos is the way to go.. lots of options there with size and what not.. But what i think no one mentioned is: Apitek - for the price point and what you can do with them might as well forget the word iPad. (they also have a sweet kids book, was just about to get that for my 3year old)

  5. I make my coffee at home.. and DL Apps for Free on Why We Agonize Over Buying $1 Apps · · Score: 1

    why pay. coffee make it yourself and it tastes better. apps hack it yourself and it is more fun to play/use.

  6. Above and Beyond on Ask Slashdot: Handing Over Personal Work Without Compensation? · · Score: 1

    At my job I just suck it up and do the work they ask me to do. Current title has NOTHING to do with IT, Help Desk, or admin, but 80% of what i do at work is IT, Help Desk, and admin things. As well as programming documents, writting software... ect. I hate the fact I dont get paid like an IT professional. But I have been with the company so long it would be horrible to start out from the bottom at a new company.

  7. Re:Already out, Called Iris (Siri backwards) on Google Working On Siri Competitor Majel · · Score: 1

    your point is? does your phone read it back to you? does your flip phone have a way to read back movie reviews to you? ***Voice Actions**** - Call someone - Text someone - Search something (on the web) - Lookup for a contact Gizmodo has a nice little review on it: http://gizmodo.com/5851896/iris-for-android-kind-of-like-siri-but-for-android

  8. Already out, Called Iris (Siri backwards) on Google Working On Siri Competitor Majel · · Score: 2

    Works wonderfully in Alpha test, and now in Beta it is even better. It mainly pulls data from Wiki, but will also voice dial, check appoinments, Find movie times, voice actived texting! woo hoo! and much more.. and the things it doesnt know will come back with a funny answer and not the i'll google that for you response that Siri does.

  9. oh no.. Apple will get upset if you do that Google on Google Donating $11.5M To Fight Modern Slavery · · Score: 1

    Apple lives off the back of slaves in other countries. So google might be making enemies with this move.

  10. file this under "Do Not Want" on Fighting Mosquitoes With GM Mosquitoes · · Score: 0

    getting rid of mosquitos will surely cause an over population issue in many 3rd world countries where they rely on people dying off early to controll food and shelter issues.. What they should do is release mosquitos in New York, GM them so that they will focus on sucking the blood of the homeless..

  11. and what browser comes with a Mac? on MS To Build Antivirus Into Win8: Boon Or Monopoly? · · Score: 0

    i dont care, bundle IE and a Anti Virus and you might actully have something worth $20, let alone the $400 price point of most Windows Versions. for that much money I would expect not only a decidated browser, but an Anti Virus, and a working Pop Up Blocker.. Maybe even with voice activated promts.. I mean really now.. my smart phone came with it lol.. but what browser comes on a Mac? I have no idea for real. I bet it is some lame system they came up with.

  12. Re:Size of a cigarette lighter?? on Dual-Core Android PC Now Comes On a USB Stick · · Score: 1

    no one that smokes? wow, you must not work in San Francisco ;-) or you go to a middle school. Even my new 2010 car has a real working cig lighter.

  13. Anything with a USB? like my PSP??? on Dual-Core Android PC Now Comes On a USB Stick · · Score: 1

    I was driving into work this morning thinking it would be awesome to have Android on my PSP for have fun with Apps and playing more games with a controller.. (Yes i do have the Xperia Play, but I am tall, and have large hands and would like to have the same experiance on a larger screen and larger game pad. )

  14. Re:Another holiday: on California Declares Today "Steve Jobs Day" · · Score: 1

    I agree fully! he inpacted way more people than this Jerk Jobs ever could have hopped for.

  15. Richard Stallman = my new hero on Richard Stallman's Dissenting View of Steve Jobs · · Score: 1

    agreed, get over Jobs people.. he was a figure head nothing more.. don’t credit him for all the apps people written for the iPods like i have seen people doing in the last few weeks. That would be like saying the CEO of Post was like Steve because he said to put Two Scoops of raisins in the box.. guess what.. it wasn’t his idea.. no one credited him for it. so why credit Steve with the work his company did?

  16. awesome on Phelps Clan Tweets Intent To Picket Jobs Funeral Via iPhone · · Score: 1

    that is prefect. but she missed a few things. Steve didnt teach sin... which was one of my main problems with him. He locked up that lame POS iPhone/Pod so much that you couldnt get good p0rn from flash sites. locked them down so it was hard to root them and make the device do what YOU want and what IT was able to do, but locked down from doing. I'll be protesting him for the next ten years or till someone remebers Dr Cooper...

  17. Thought i would miss my Command Promt too on Microsoft Killed the Start Menu Because No One Uses It · · Score: 1

    I will miss the Start Menu, but not for long i bet. I missed the C Promt, and Directory Magic programs and BBS sites too. But now i look back on them as learning tools for future generations. I know my kid will benifit from my years of working in DOS and programming in Basic and Pascal, and HTML. I hope he will enjoy a good read/laugh of my DOS 3.11 hard cover books i have ;-) I wonder what the PC 15years from now will be.. lol

  18. Re:Sorry but the Japanese deployed a larger one. on NASA To Demonstrate Largest-Ever Solar Sail in Space · · Score: 1

    Scott/Irish/Norse/NativeAmerican - you pick. Swan did make one first.. but Edison made the long lasting Filament

  19. Re:Sorry but the Japanese deployed a larger one. on NASA To Demonstrate Largest-Ever Solar Sail in Space · · Score: 1

    for one that is a Wiki site.. on the 2nd note, it says it was the first? lies.. the Russains were the first in 1993. and the Russians were the ones that came up with the idea of it. just like the light bulb.. we invented it.. they make it better.

  20. Star Trek DS9 - Bajoran solar-sail vessel anyone? on NASA To Demonstrate Largest-Ever Solar Sail in Space · · Score: 1

    I always thought Solar sails would be awesome after seeing the DS9 epsiode where Commander Sisko constructed his own lightship and took his son, Jake Sisko, along for the maiden voyage. http://www.startrek.com/database_article/bajoran-solar-sail-vessel

  21. Re:Windows 8 on Game Devs Predict Death of Flash, Installed Games · · Score: 1

    exactly.. MS never said they were going to disable Flash from working on Win 8 like this story would have your think. HTML5 fine.. do what you will. I for one LOVED the fact that there was 50% of the web that didnt work on Apple products. just makes makes so much since, becasue most Apple users are not Tech Savvy and just are just End Users. and i dont need End Users fumbling around the web where they shouldnt be ;-) hehehehe.

  23. Re:Sweet! on Discovery Brings Us One Step Closer To "Milking" Pigeons · · Score: 1

    have you lived on a farm, near a farm or been to a farm? Have you dismembered a cow/pig? have you seen the blood drained out of them? have you seen what they eat, where they eat? and do you trust some backwards farmer that he fed him good food and not pumped them up with too many hormons?

  24. Sweet! on Discovery Brings Us One Step Closer To "Milking" Pigeons · · Score: 1

    As a Bird i welcome this. I have hate cows, cow milk is nasty, just thinking about cow utters and my breakfast is disturbing. Why oh why cant we just milk humas? Plunety of out of work Moms out there that could use the cash. I would rather have that then cow milk. Bird milk sounds good to me though.. Rice Milk and Soy Milk have been good to me and with cooking it is ok. How would butter milk busquets come out with all Bird Milk? Bird Butter.. hmmm maybe i need to jump on that before Land O Lakes does ;-) lol

  25. vanguard of technological innovation? on Apple Too Big For the Dow Jones Industrial Average · · Score: 1

    I almost fell off my chair laughing when i saw this. i even spilled my coffee. what a joke right? they have invented no where near the amount of stuff and high tech things as Sony. give me a break.. apple grr.. how long they been around and only now their stock is going up. i say Bubbles pop. and this one will soon.
