  1. No surprise. Since Zurkerberg has been working with the German government to censor Facebook posts there: http://louderwithcrowder.com/facebook-has-begun-censoring-germany/

  2. Youtube should implement that.

  3. Re:Tired it a few weeks ago on Opera's Ex-CEO Launches Vivaldi 1.0 For Power Users · · Score: 1

    That's the same thing I said about Windows 10...

  4. Because when you need basic things like food and shelter, nothing satisfies like wifi.

  5. “There are some who believe that the President, having won the election, should have complete authority to appoint his nomineethat once you get beyond intellect and personal character, there should be no further question as to whether the judge should be confirmed. I disagree with this view.” --Barack Obama, 2006

  6. Re:And so ... on Windows 10 Now Showing Full Screen Ads On Lock Screen (consumerist.com) · · Score: 1

    Win 10 looks too much like Win 95 to me.

  7. July 2015 on Slashdot and SourceForge Sold, Now Under New Management (bizx.info) · · Score: 1

    "DHI first announced its plan to sell Slashdot Media in July 2015"

    Tell me again, when was the Slashdot beta?

  8. Law is not the way on Kentucky Bill: Wait an Hour Before Posting Injuries To Social Media (kentucky.com) · · Score: 1

    I don't think the solution is another law. Instead he should find someone to launch an education campaign and try to convince people why they shouldn't do it.

  9. Glad I'm not the only one annoyed. Obligatory meme.

  10. Re:Question for the programmers on AVG, McAfee, Kaspersky Antiviruses All Had a Common Bug (softpedia.com) · · Score: 1

    I was under the impression that it was just a compiler flag you had to add. But I've never used it and could be wrong.

  11. Re:Fabricating an assualt rifle in California... on Making an AR-15 In the Wired San Francisco Office · · Score: 4, Funny

    Don't know. But I'm pretty sure it's "known to the state of California to cause cancer."

  12. Adjusted? on Federal Study: Marijuana Use Doesn't Increase Auto Crash Rates · · Score: 1

    "They report that after adjusting for other factors (people who tend to drive after using marijuana also tend to be more crash-prone in general)"

    Wait. As an adjustment, you took out the thing you were looking for and then claimed you couldn't find it?

  13. Re:Archival grade BluRay on Ask Slashdot: Best Medium For Personal Archive? · · Score: 0

    As soon as Blu-Ray goes away as a media"

    There will never be enough bandwidth for that.

  14. Good news on Disney Turned Down George Lucas's Star Wars Scripts · · Score: 5, Insightful

    As long as the plot's NOT in Lucas's hands, I'm happy.

  15. Why do they even need it? on Illinois Students Suspected of Cyberbullying Must Provide Social Media Passwords · · Score: 1

    Why do they need their passwords? Shouldn't they be able to see what they've posted be looking at the victims account?

  16. Re:Hakija on Ask Slashdot: Linux Database GUI Application Development? · · Score: 1

    For a guy who is designing/testing new language features (that don't have tooling support yet) I imagine he does use the console a lot.

  17. Re:The real conspiracy... on Why Apple, Google, and FB Have Their Own Programming Languages · · Score: 4, Informative

    It's hard to flip thru an ebook the same way you do a paperback.

  18. Re:Write it down on Ask Slashdot: Convincing My Company To Stop Using Passwords? · · Score: 1

    They're also more likely to notice that their wallet is missing than their post it note with the password stuck to the desk.

  19. Job Satisfaction on Which Programming Language Pays the Best? Probably Python · · Score: 1

    I'd rather work with a language that paid a little less than one that I found hard to use.

  20. I thought... on Is a "Wikipedia For News" Feasible? · · Score: 1

    I thought everything2 was "the encyclopedia that Slashdot built"

  23. Re:Slashdot is so full of hate these days on Crowdfunded Linux Voice Magazine Releases First Issue CC-BY-SA · · Score: 1

    Ditto

  24. Groucho on World's Youngest Microsoft Certificated Professional Is Five Years Old · · Score: 3, Funny

  25. Re:Desparate Microsoft pulls a "Sun Microsystems" on Microsoft To Open Source .NET and Take It Cross-Platform · · Score: 1

    Add least MS security updates don't try to install Ask toolbar (Java) or McAfee (Adobe).
