  1. Keep in mind who controled the report on Emails Cast Unflattering Light On Internal Politics of Healthcare.gov Rollout · · Score: 1

    Because of the political dynamics in the House (Republicans who are critical of the ACA outnumber democrats), be sure to take what is written with a canister of salt.

  2. Rising Crust on Western US Drought Has Made Earth's Crust Rise · · Score: 2

    So it was like a frozen pizza or something?

  3. Deflect Blame? on Oregon Sues Oracle For "Abysmal" Healthcare Website · · Score: 5, Insightful

    "is a desperate attempt to deflect blame from Cover Oregon and the governor for their failures to manage a complex IT project." It shouldn't be their job, that's what they paid you for.

  4. Re:Payday on The Simultaneous Rise and Decline of Battlefield · · Score: 1

    Payday is done by Overkill software and Starbreeze Studios (published by 505 games on Consoles).
    Battlefield is done by EA Digital Illusions and published by Electronic Arts.
    No.

  5. Payday on The Simultaneous Rise and Decline of Battlefield · · Score: 1

    Just buy this. Currently on sale and probably way more enjoyable than Battlefield: Hardline will ever be.

  6. XNA on Ask Slashdot: Best Way to Learn C# For Game Programming? · · Score: 1

    Might be depreciated but it's tailor made for C#. Go look it up.

  7. This bill is terrible bait on 2 US Senators Propose 12-Cent Gas Tax Increase · · Score: 1

    Gas taxes up, corporate taxes down. It doesn't raise money so much as shift the burden away from the wealthy.

  8. Placing flowers on Algernon's grave on HUGO Winning Author Daniel Keyes Has Died · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Go in peace friend.

  9. Really Dice? on Microsoft Doesn't Have Plans For a Dedicated Handheld Gaming Device · · Score: 1

    *Clears throat to do his best Sarge impression* Could you put that in a memo and title it SHIT I ALREADY KNOW?!

  10. Re:If only there was an update tool from xp to win on Meet the Diehards Who Refuse To Move On From Windows XP · · Score: 1

    When I went from Vista to 8.0 I did it just with the tool and most everything was kept.

  11. Re:If only there was an update tool from xp to win on Meet the Diehards Who Refuse To Move On From Windows XP · · Score: 1
  12. Visual Studio Express on Should Microsoft Give Kids Programmable Versions of Office? · · Score: 2

    That exists. I'm not sure programmable office is entirely necessary when they're giving that away.

  13. Politics on Why No Executive Order To Stop NSA Metadata Collection? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    He wants Republicans to vote no on such a change so it can make them look bad. If he just did it by EO it would make him look bad in eyes of Republicans for abusing Executive power.

  14. Storm on Jimmy Wales To 'Holistic Healers': Prove Your Claims the Old-Fashioned Way · · Score: -1, Redundant

    You know what they call alternative medicine that's been proved to work?

    Medicine.

    Tim Minchin - Storm

  15. It will launch on time on Lies Programmers Tell Themselves · · Score: 1

    Here's a good one.

  16. Internal Communications on Microsoft Lync Server Gathers Employee Data Just Like NSA · · Score: 2

    And a log is being kept about it? Who'dathunkit? *Groan* This isn't news.

  17. Bit too fast, bit too much Loki on Thor: The Dark World — What Did You Think? · · Score: 1

    Subject. While it does clock in at two hours, it does seem to come and go a bit too quickly. Most importantly is the "rivalry" between Jane Foster and Sif being hinted at (twice), but never going anywhere. At times, Loki stole the show in terms of just being there and while he's a joy to watch, I think he's going to be a bit too overplayed.

    Still, movie is balls to the wall hilarious at times, (*SPOILER*) especially when we see Loki as Captain America. Overall I think the first Thor was better but this one was certainly pretty awesome.

  18. Your bias is showing on Fukushima Floating Offshore Wind Turbine Starts Generating Power · · Score: 0

    Bloomberg calls wind power "unproven technology". What are you, fox noise?

  19. Open Source It on ACA Health Exchange Contractors Have History of Security Failures · · Score: 3, Interesting
  20. User Manuals on Ask Slashdot: What Are the Hardest Things Programmers Have To Do? · · Score: 1

    I'm a developer and I would put this up as the hardest thing I have to do. Since I know the guts of why and how something works, I tend to have a really hard time writing particularly helpful User Manuals to other people. There is no group within us that spends time writing manuals (so I have to do my own) and it does require me throwing the manual at somebody somewhat unsuspecting and hoping it makes sense to them.

  21. Vocaloid does it better on Meet the Voice Behind Siri · · Score: 1

    But who on slashdot thinks a short interview with Saki Fujita (Hatsune Miku) would be interesting?
    *Kicks feet up* Slow news day.

  22. Re:Let the Conspiracy Theories begin... on Tom Clancy Is Dead At 66 · · Score: 1

    Or maybe he ran on government money and that got cut off?

  23. Fracking isn't legal in NYS on Central New York Nuclear Plants Struggle To Avoid Financial Meltdown · · Score: 1

    So where is all the gas coming from?

  24. $853 Million Dollars is Pitiful? on Why Is Microsoft Setting More Money On Fire With Surface 2? · · Score: 1

    We just got done saying GTA V's cool $1 Billion was awesome, so why is this judged by a different standard? $150 Million can't mean that much.

    Though, I was hoping for the removal of Surface RT and having all devices be "Pro". That would have them devastate the market, but they won't seem to do it.

  25. I've got a better idea on Fracked Shale Could Sequester Carbon Dioxide · · Score: 1

    Let's not bury our problems. Instead, let's bury some tree saplings and have them sort this carbon dioxide problem out.

    Plant more trees!
