Comment Totally ignoring the contributions to political pa (Score 0, Troll) 66

So this article, as have many, is also completely ignoring the tens of millions of contributions that have been going the Democratsâ(TM) way?

Really remarkable how this part has been ignored in most of the MSM the past few days. Weâ(TM)re not talking about a few dollars here; literally tens of millions have been donated their way, and youâ(TM)d say that doing some buys you -something-â¦

Entirely agree with your post - But from Slashdot's perspective (copying Facebook/Reddit); Negative engagement is still engagement, and short term higher ad revenue.

I've stopped a a few years visiting Slashdot on a daily basis; probably around the time they dropped the 'News for Nerds'-tagline, and right about the time they started promoting intentionally false headlines, and non-tech related posts to the front page.

To this day, I've still not been able to find a site which replicates the intelligent discussions that took place here end nineties/start of the millennium: Any suggestions?

Who needs that shit? The world needs to fix its own damned problems. Fair trade, real borders, clean elections. The rest will sort itself out."

You keep pretending that the US does this 'for the world's good'? Have you ever checked which countries they've invaded, and why? All of them are SELF INTEREST. Dumb fucking faggot.

Comment Makes perfect sense. (Score 0) 376

Alamo Drafthouse's policy seems to make perfect sense. They also have a very strict policy with regards to cell phones (and even better commercials ;-) ), so it would only make sense for them to extend the ban to other devices that distract from the viewing.

Comment CLANG? (Score 1) 112

It seems a bit unfair to throw CLANG into the mix with these games:
CLANG was started by the author Neil Stephenson, and people are surprised how, by golly, the guy doesn't know the intricacies of game development (and its costs)?
I found it incredibly strange to see how succesful that Kickstarter was, since it's the same as a reknown gamedesigner asking money to write a book...

The other examples are people who have been veterans in the gamedesign industry, and whereas not automatically flawless, they will at least also know about the possible pitfalls of development.

Not entirely true: When someone makes a screenshot within the alotted time the picture is visible (the sender can set the amount of time it's visible), you can still make a normal screengrab (only have experience with an iPhone here), but it will notify the sender that a screenshot has been taken. The iPhone does not need to be unlocked for it.
