  1. Here's a better story on MoviePass Reveals Annual Subscription For $6.95 a Month (slashfilm.com) · · Score: 1

    Yeah, it's off topic but how often does the U.S. Navy draw a penis in the sky?

    Moviepass? WTF?

  2. Re:They used to be made in Germany on Volkswagen To Spend Over $40 Billion on Electric and Self-Driving Cars (reuters.com) · · Score: 2

    Well if being a racist means I'd trust your average German to do a better job at putting a car together than your average Mexican call me a racist.

    Well if you were given the choice of a German vehicle made in Germany or one made in Alabama or Mexico which would you take? None of them makes their top models in Mexico, only the cheaper ones. Mexico=Crap.

    Made in Germany is better than made in Mexico? Unless it's a sombrero.

    Sadly, most of the VW models sold in North America are made in Mexico. For obvious reasons, VW doesn't publicize that fact.

  6. The hippies became yuppies and sold out. Free thinking is frowned upon by those in power. They want everything just like the 1950s. Forever.

  7. Refreshments? on Tesla Is Rethinking the Rest Stop For California Road Trips (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 0

    Will there be free Tesla Kool-Aid? It seems quite popular around here.

  8. Well played. While I agree China is not really communism since you don't even get free health care. Then again they don't vote and have very limited freedom. There are markets but much of the money goes to the state. It's more of an abomination than anything. Would you want to live there? I know I wouldn't. And if I want to call them communists it's close enough.

  9. Re:Politics itself is social engineering on Report Claims That 18 Nation's Elections Were Impacted By Social Engineering Last Year (bbc.com) · · Score: 2

    Yeah, since when do nerds care about social media, crazy politics and fake news? Even the occasional story actually on computers would be appreciated.

  10. When the Communist Party of China starts calling themselves the Capitalist Party of China I'll agree with you.

  11. Don't sugar coat it, it's commie propaganda. We got shit they don't even know about. Hell, we got stuff we don't even know about.

    As a Canadian I would like to apologize for the previous apology.

  14. Re:Enlightened self interest on Uber Drivers Have Rights on Wages and Time Off, UK Panel Rules (apnews.com) · · Score: 1

    You waited a week and that's the best argument you can come up with? Three dollars an hour is better than no dollars at all? Maybe we should bring back indentured servitude? This ain't Bangladesh we're talking about. What about a standard of living?

  15. Nobody cares what China thinks on China Cyber Watchdog Rejects Censorship Critics, Says Internet Must Be 'Orderly' (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    A totalitarian communist regime like China doesn't have the moral standing to criticize any country or even the internet itself. Just STFU and keep making cheap shoes and smartphones while your citizenry slowly wakes up and kicks you to the curb like all other despotic rulers Learn your place..

    Louis C.K. 2017 playing now on Netflix. From the description: Louis C.K. is ready to get down to business with his latest comedy special. A reminder of what can happen when "you're supposed to be working". Be sure to catch Louis next week at Denny's in Puyallup, Washington.
