  1. Re:Corporate Propaganda on Google Accuses Competitors of Abusing Patents Against Android · · Score: 1

    Even if they did, they think patents are just six words long.

  2. Re:Here's my take: on Wall Street Predicts Merge of OS X and iOS · · Score: 0

    You don't say.... but but but iOS is just OSX so you can just flip a switch and make it work, right?????!1one

  3. Re:Here's my take: on Wall Street Predicts Merge of OS X and iOS · · Score: 0

    I want to see how well OSX works when the ability to run things like scripts is removed and only TrustedTM executables are allowed to be run.

  4. Wrong Question. on The Epidemic of Digital Distraction · · Score: 1

    No, you're learning what the important details actually are.

  5. Re:You mis-read the contract and are crying foul? on Amazon App Store 'Rotten To the Core,' Says Dev · · Score: 1

    Ok, we agree, nothing to do with the topic at hand.

  6. Oh goodie on AptiQuant Browser/IQ Study Was Likely a Hoax · · Score: 1

    Great, another thread where we can pass off computer experience as general intelligence.

  7. Yaaaaaawn on Preview of id Software's Rage · · Score: 1

    "In those three hours, I discovered a first-person shooter. Also, a racing game. And a car combat game. And an open-world adventure. A collectible card came, too. Lastly, it's practically every piece of apocalyptic science fiction we have known to date tossed into a blender, set to puree, poured onto a disc, and spread evenly over a seemingly lengthy and elaborate single-player adventure. In short, Rage is a kitchen sink kind of game...

    In short, you can play every single genre PC Gaming has in one game. Well done.

    Apparently he's somebody with a point you don't have a rebuttal to.

  9. Re:iOS on Amazon App Store 'Rotten To the Core,' Says Dev · · Score: 1

    You might have a point if all stores were equal. But, hey, sweep this one under the rug since it doesn't affect Android devs at all!

  10. Re:iOS on Amazon App Store 'Rotten To the Core,' Says Dev · · Score: 0

    He said 'defend the platform', not the store. But, hey, who needs a solid rebuttal if you can convince everybody he's a fanboy?

    Not in the examples he gave.

    Thanks!

    Have a good week.

  13. Re:Where's the Torjan part? on Android Trojan Records Phone Calls · · Score: 1

    But then I guess "phone call recording app records phone calls" is less of an alarmist title.

    What's funny is lots of people who rely on Slashdot for their smartphone news actually consider themselves informed.

  14. Re:The Next Firefox UI on The Next Firefox UI · · Score: 1

    Thanks for the tip!

    What key commands do you use to switch/manage tabs? I'm asking because it's difficult for me to picture you gaining a significant speed-up when you're already moving your mouse across the screen.

  15. Re:The Next Firefox UI on The Next Firefox UI · · Score: 1

    Only if the address bar already has focus. Most of the time it doesn't.

    Im still not seeing a clear sign of 'low IQ', here. What I am seeing is a situation you could easily find yourself in if you were placed outside of your comfort zone.

    He doesn't love computers like you do. I run into shit like that all the time, but this isn't happening with 'dumb' people. I had a coworker misread a checkbox once, thought off meant on. You, specifically, would think he was dumb as dirt. Then I'd show you this person's work, and suddenly you'd change your mind. Again, interest level. You are not measuring smarts.

    Im sorry, but so far I'm not convinced you know the difference.

  17. Re:Exactly. on Galaxy Tab 10.1 Vs. iPad 2 Review · · Score: 1

    Yeah, that's why I'm still running Internet Explorer. Firefox and Webkit (among the most popular and widely distributed of open source software) may have configurability and openness, but they'll never match Internet Explorer for its ease of use, lack of glitches and fulfilled promises.

    Heh. That reminds me: A few years ago I saw a post where somebody loudly proclaimed that the Mac had no games. Somebody angrily replied with "Nuh uh, we have Myst!"

    You're not describing IQ, you're describing interest level.

    Or if you refuse to indoctrinate yourself into the Cult of Apple.

    Heh. The righteous shalt chooseth Google.

    You're measuring IQ by people's savvy'ness with computers. Let that sink in for a minute.

  21. Re:All of those studies are the same on Study Compares IQ With Browser Choice · · Score: 1

    I think we tell ourselves that so when bed-time arrives on Sunday we don't feel so bad about spending our weekends watching a torrented marathon of a television show attractive people have never even heard of.

  22. Re:Opera user on Study Compares IQ With Browser Choice · · Score: 1

    No. The point of using Opera is that web browsing is easier with it. The smug sense of superiority comes from FireFox carbon copying features from it a year later.

  23. Re:All of those studies are the same on Study Compares IQ With Browser Choice · · Score: 1

    We only think we're smarter because we know how to make the blinky lights come on. Really it's all about interest level.

  24. Re:Robots problems on Foxconn To Employ 1 Million Robots · · Score: 1

    Do you believe that because you looked into that yourself or because you saw the words 'Foxconn', 'suicide', 'Apple', and 'working conditions' numerous times right here on Slashdot?

  25. Re:Peak Employment? on Foxconn To Employ 1 Million Robots · · Score: 1

    Our economy depends on money moving around. Until people develope a concept of 'enough money', no, there will never be peak employment.
