    The bleached Tribble on Trump's head kind of freaks me out.

  10. Bug-for-bug compatibility on Ask Slashdot: Could Linux Ever Become Fully Compatible With Windows and Mac Software? · · Score: 1

    Maybe 99.9999% compatible, but that 0.0001% could make it crash or give wrong results. Emulating complex/messy things is always a challenge.

  11. 30 sounds low. Throw the book at 'em!

  13. Re:Easier solution on Google To Kill Off 'View Image' Button In Search · · Score: 5, Funny

    Indeed! Agree on a meta-tag to exclude such image-convenience-features, and sites that want to be Scrooges can add it to the pages.

    Jeeez, stop slowing down my porn browsing to make a few bad apples happy.

  14. This is why MS was giving 10 away for free, often without asking. It's not an OS, but a Spam Engine, with an OS in it.

  15. If they had used Mainframe "green screen" applications, they wouldn't have this problem.

  16. "Fake news! Beliebe me, I know sea levels better than Captain Ahab and his Moby dick. What luuuzer names their dick Moby anyhow? Sounds ghetto; So sad. I'll fire them both and make Al Gore pay for it. #MEGA! That's the name of my dick, by the way. Rubio's is #MEAGER, but my MEGA makes MAGA!"

  18. Smacknostics [Re:In my personal experience] on Why Paper Jams Persist (newyorker.com) · · Score: 1

    10. Abuse: Just smacking bending parts breaking pins....

    This is caused by frustration over 1 thru 9. Smack-repair appears to work on the Millennium Falcon, and real-life in RC robot sports fighting* ("Battlebots"), so people keep doing it.

    * I've seen several instances where a "dead" bot comes to life when the competitor whacks it again. One driver kept shouting "please hit me, please hit me!" It's usually best to leave stopped bots alone. Of course, whacking may make something temporarily work, but is not a good long-term repair strategy for office equipment.

  19. We are making sure our systems are secure and they are secure.

    That last part is over-confidence. It's hard to know if one has plugged all breaches.

    Then a small spelling error in your code could create a real mess instead of a fault.

    It's not much diff than dynamic languages versus static/compiled languages. They each have their place/niche and you treat each different. One can add constraints on the database as the project settles.

    As far as gui's, the X Windows System has a lot of faults that make it unsuitable.

  21. The best teams use different skill-sets and viewpoints to compliment each other. Dare I use that word? "Synergy".

    However, selecting and coordinating a well-tuned staff like that is not easy. Good managers are rare. They have to know the corporate kiss-up game, but also relate to and understand technical people and their work.

    You don't have to maim people to protest and cause political disruption. Read some Gandhi.

    But if something is not done soon about inequality, it will end rough.

    1. A decent GUI/CRUD UI-over-HTTP standard. DOM/JS/CSS/HTML is a fricken mess.

    2. Dynamic relational: columns and optionally tables are "create on use" unless constraints given against such.
