  1. Re:Paywall on Doctor Ready to Perform First Human Head Transplant (newsweek.com) · · Score: 1

    *the ones with trojan droppers

  2. Re:"Industry desire" is all good and well on Intel Wants To Eliminate The Headphone Jack And Replace It With USB-C (9to5mac.com) · · Score: 1

    Your soundcard still use the same 44khz, 16bit rate of the soundblaster 16.

  3. Re:"Industry desire" is all good and well on Intel Wants To Eliminate The Headphone Jack And Replace It With USB-C (9to5mac.com) · · Score: 1

    Apparently, USB 3 type C actually support analog audio as well, by using the sideband pins, but as you can imagine, it is not mandatory and will require an USB3.0 to 3.5 adaptor.

  4. Re:can be disabled with spraypaint on Chinese Security Robot Draws Dalek, Terminator Comparisons (abc.net.au) · · Score: 1

    Its possible to stop those with an hydrophobic treatment.

  5. Using theft as a word to describe it only make you sound silly.
    Its copyright infringement the name of the crime here.

  6. This actually benefits netflix. on After Netflix Crackdown On Border-Hopping, Canadians Ready To Return To Piracy (www.cbc.ca) · · Score: 1

    Because now they can basically go to the studios, tv networks etc and say "see? those are all your lost sales for not signing a contract with us."

  7. Just test it. on Slashdot Asks: Have You Experienced Ageism? (observer.com) · · Score: 1

    Man,woman,elderly, dog.. if it can work well enough and most importantly, work well enough with the team you currently have, that's all you need.

  8. Re: Dangerous Zealots. on Hacker Collective Attacks KKK Sites (theepochtimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Pretty much.
    If people can't even use memes correctly on the internet, how to expect they use specific terms like that?

  9. Re:Dangerous Zealots. on Hacker Collective Attacks KKK Sites (theepochtimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Well, no, because mostly they're not even actually SJWs.
    Sadly several right wing extremists use SJW as "anyone i disagree with", instead of well, using it to correctly point at the indoctrinated social justice fanatics, including the very powerful and full of connections san francisco clique.
    Those people probably would do the same exact shit if they could, but fortunately their thing is not popular or well disguised enough to sneak in.

  10. Re:Dangerous Zealots. on Hacker Collective Attacks KKK Sites (theepochtimes.com) · · Score: 5, Informative

    Actually, Those people generally "respond" by taking over the moderation of several places and carpet banning and deleting everything that goes against their rhetoric, and when its outside the internet calling the police with bomb threats, hitting the fire alarm etc etc etc..

  11. Re:Relevant how? on US Suicide Rate Surges To Highest Level In Almost Three Decades, Says Report (bbc.com) · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    I recommend you don't use "SJW" as anything you dislike, given the fact it is a word to describe very specific people with very specific goals and generally using a very specific vocabulary.
    I mean, that's an actual real problem, not "microtriggering misogyinistic biggot air conditioner in a marvel movie" as those things like to complain about.

    This of course assuming you're not a false flagger or something of sorts.

  12. And of course it will be repealed.. on San Francisco Adopts Law Requiring Solar Panels On All New Buildings (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    As soon they find it to be sexist somehow.

  13. Re:They are doing the same in Brazil on Pro-Clinton Super PAC Caught Spending $1 Million On Social Media Trolls (usuncut.com) · · Score: 1

    There's three ways this thing can end:
    1) impeach (dilma goes away, temer gets the power)
    2) STF investigation finds dilma (and her vice, temer) guilty and both get removed from power (as does several friends of temer)
    3) STF finds nothing on dilma and everything stays the same (unless they find temer guilty, then well, option 1 gets even worse)
    They're obviously pushing for the first scenario, because well, second and third don't give em any power.

  14. Will it propel itself with 8x8, 2bit indexed color tiles?

  15. Re:Yar's Revenge's Revenge on Slashdot Asks: Is the Golden Era of Video-Game Console Sales Over? · · Score: 1

    Well, now the "graphics race is over", they should start to make good games again, but seems like thats too risky.

  16. Re:This governor.. on Utah Governor: 'Porn Is a Public Health Crisis' (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Some morons can be very persuasive or charismatic when they want to.
    Others just are born in cash and buy their way in.

  17. Re:This governor.. on Utah Governor: 'Porn Is a Public Health Crisis' (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    That's a given, but he seems to be hanging out with those fellas, given he kinda got a bit of the way they write/talk.

  18. Re:This governor.. on Utah Governor: 'Porn Is a Public Health Crisis' (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Probably enough to run on a very big guilt trip.

  19. This governor.. on Utah Governor: 'Porn Is a Public Health Crisis' (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    He sounds like some sort of fusion between a tumblr socjus and a bible nut, using several "power words" from both sides.

  20. What about other kind non burning fuel cars.. on Netherlands Looks To Ban All Non-Electric Cars By 2025 (yahoo.com) · · Score: 1

    Like cars that use air pressure, fuel cells, nuclear?

  21. Sometimes you have to actually produce some results, or well, there won't be any money to pocket.

  22. Re:I have a better idea on MPAA Wants ISPs to Disconnect Persistent Pirates (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    MPAA don't do movies, the studios do.
    What MPAA do is to act like basically norton anti virus and constantly keep the studios scared of the EVIL pirates, so they can keep grabbing cash off the studios to "combat" that EVIL thing.
    Basically alarmist scammers of the highest degree.

  23. Not happening.. on Fossil Fuels Could Be Phased Out Worldwide In a Decade, Says Study (phys.org) · · Score: 1

    Unless exxon mobil can secure pretty much a monopoly on the next source of power.

  24. You really think a mega corporation like facebook want anyone but hillary?

  25. Re:This must be why paternity tests are illegal on Genetic Studies Prove Cuckolded Fathers Are Rare In Human Populations · · Score: 1

    I think this kind of laws cause a much bigger issue with alimony than cheating.
    Basically on a country where paternity test is banned, any woman can just go and claim that have a kid with some target and take the alimony with no contesting whatsoever because it's illegal to prove otherwise.
