  1. Re:Sounds fair enough on Battleheart Developer Drops Android As 'Unsustainable' · · Score: 1

    Pretty typical on Android, there really is a massive problem. They at far from the dirt developers to rech this conclusion. There is a reason that EA has like 5x th titles on ios as Android. Thereis a reason very few game are making it over.

  2. Amazing on NVIDIA Challenges Apple's iPad Benchmarks · · Score: 1

    Nvidia is stupid enough to take the bait. Good job.

  3. Re:Apple conveniently omitted this little fact... on Apple To Add 3600 Jobs At New $304 Million Campus In Austin · · Score: 3, Insightful

    3600 is the number of actual Apple employees, not the economic impact. They didn't omit nothing, you wandered ino fantasy land.

  4. Re:Fingerprints on Google Works On Kinect-Like Interface For Android · · Score: 2

    That is excessive. I hope you are single and childless. Otherwise,you are irresponsible.

    Please, it does not even hav n inexplicable Apple tag yet.

  8. Re:Hey, the pirates can help on Master Engineer: Apple's "Mastered For iTunes" No Better Than AAC-Encoded Music · · Score: 2

    Hmm? Apple was the one that pushed for and now only sells DRM free music.

  9. Re:Hey, the pirates can help on Master Engineer: Apple's "Mastered For iTunes" No Better Than AAC-Encoded Music · · Score: 1

    This article only has to do with how the Author does not understand mastered for iTunes at all and the summary writer understands it even less.

  10. Re:Reminds me of scams of the past on Master Engineer: Apple's "Mastered For iTunes" No Better Than AAC-Encoded Music · · Score: 1

    Same here. I only half paid attention to an issue I did not fully understand and I knew he was an undeniable idiot.

  11. You would think a master engineer would look into the program a little before making a fool of himself. The program is a set of guidelines for mastering, not a different file formats. A lot of engineers may be using similar guidelines when creating their iTunes submissions anyway. There would be no difference in file format. None is claimed. Anywhere. By Anyone.

  12. Re:Finest engineer? on Open Letter By Eric S. Raymond To Chris Dodd · · Score: 2

    The poster is ESR, that is pretty easy to tell.

  13. Re:ESR, is that you? on Open Letter By Eric S. Raymond To Chris Dodd · · Score: 2

    You actually wondered? Who else would have written that lime. I suppose it could be his mother, but really. It is either him or someone very close to him.

  14. Re:ESR, is that you? on Open Letter By Eric S. Raymond To Chris Dodd · · Score: 1

    How does that make notepad more useful, it just makes it more used.

  15. Re:uhhh. on Open Letter By Eric S. Raymond To Chris Dodd · · Score: 1

    Unlikely, he is the head of one of the most corrupt organizations in the worl. (This post has not been rated).

    He is also the anonymous who just hyped himself and his letter on /.

  17. Re:Physical keyboard? on Halliburton To Dump Blackberry For iOS · · Score: 1

    Takes about a week. Your large finger parent is full of it btw. The iPhone keyboard is far superior for those of us with large fingers. I had about 5 years on the blackberry and within a week I typed faster and more accurately with the virtual keyboard.

    People try it once and mumble about change and go back into their hole.

  18. Re:Physical keyboard? on Halliburton To Dump Blackberry For iOS · · Score: 1

    I am not saying your not a good commenter, but 2007 called and they want their argument back. Many if not most people find typing on a virtual keyboard far superior to the pointless little keyboard on the blackberry.

    Does it take getting used to? Sure. Give it a week. The email signatures about "excuse my fucked up typing" originated on Blackberry.

  19. Re:"It's not the consumer's job to know what to wa on Apple Versus Google Innovation Strategies · · Score: 1

    The crash can turns into an eject symbol when you drag something that ejects. It has done this since at least tiger. All Macs also have an eject button on the keyboard.

  20. Not a lot. on Facebook's Oregon Data Center Uses As Much Power As Entire County · · Score: 2

    It is funny how a grossly misleading story can make everyone on /. think this is a lot of power. I know a lot of the posters are trying to feel superior, but using more power than a rural county in Oregon is in no way significant.

  21. Re:AAF: Ammo Against Facebook on Facebook's Oregon Data Center Uses As Much Power As Entire County · · Score: 1

    Non-grown-ups?

    You have not quite reached 2012 yet. You should go back a few years and feel superior in a different decade.

  22. Re:Awesome headline. on Leaked Memo Says Apple Provides Backdoor To Governments · · Score: 1

    I agree it is wrong, but RIM and Nokia are irrelevant. The only reason Android is not mentioned is because Android isn't really a thing, you can rest assured any Android phones available in India are not magically secure. The government just doesn't need google's help to get the back door put in.

  23. Re:... well that's one reason open source is super on Leaked Memo Says Apple Provides Backdoor To Governments · · Score: 1

    Because the carrier ads the government back door on its own?

  24. Re:Puzzles aren't to test programming skills on Are Brain Teasers Good Hiring Criteria? · · Score: 1

    Good thing his employer did not require brain teasers? How do I know that? A smart NS creative peron worked there.

  25. Re:It's important to understand on Are Brain Teasers Good Hiring Criteria? · · Score: 2

    Then they are even dumber than we expected. Seriously? Think about what you are saying. There is little correlation between brain teaser ability and intelligence. There is no correlation with creativity.

    He best wy to find mart creative people is to engage candidate in unscripted conversation with smart creative people. I may be a chicken and eg problem, but goofy tests are not the answer. It is childish and lazy. Most highly intelligent or creative people would not even consider taking a childish test.

    I know some of you are saying, "hey! I took a test like that for my job.". Just know, what I said is true. ;)
