  1. Age Reversing Does Not Equal No Death on Ask Slashdot: What Happens If We Perfect Age Reversing? · · Score: 2

    When age reversing does happen (5-10 years), I promise you people will continue to die! Mother nature is very creative.

  2. Re:Lock your credit reports! on No Justice For Victims of Identity Theft · · Score: 1

    It cost me $5 to unlock my reports, nothing to lock them. In addition anyone that has had their information stolen due to a security breach get's locking and unlocking free.
    In the US check your state laws!!

  4. Lock your credit reports! on No Justice For Victims of Identity Theft · · Score: 1

    Everyone should lock their credit reports, stealing an identity with them open is took easy! Only open when you need to.

  5. He's breaking his own law on Irish Legislator Proposes Law That Would Make Annoying People Online a Crime · · Score: 5, Funny

    It's funny he's breaking his own law already!!!

  6. It makes it easy to support "not enough skilled" on Do Tech Companies Ask For Way Too Much From Job Candidates? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    This is one way they support the claim that there are not enough skilled people, totally bogus.

  7. The enemy of my enemy his my friend on Report: Samsung Replacing Its Apps With Microsoft's For Galaxy S6 · · Score: 0

    I'm really trying to decide if this is a brilliant corporate move or totally insane that they are abandoning their base

  8. Re:Money *needs* to be removed from Politics ... on Comcast Ghost-Writes Politician's Letters To Support Time Warner Mega-Merger · · Score: 1

    A more textbook example of a violation of the first amendment, and the reason why the first amendment is necessary in the first place, would be hard to find.

    If the person has money they still can buy billboard, commercials, etc if they have an opinion, so they still have their freedom of speech right. I don't remember the amendment where the right to spend money on your own election is...

  9. Re:There should be a law on Comcast Ghost-Writes Politician's Letters To Support Time Warner Mega-Merger · · Score: 1

    The emblems would be sooooo small because there are so many you wouldn't be able to read them :-)

  10. Re:Money *needs* to be removed from Politics ... on Comcast Ghost-Writes Politician's Letters To Support Time Warner Mega-Merger · · Score: 1

    Having 3 or more candidate elections would ensure more voices are heard, I would think in the US it would probably be 4-6 candidates per election (never will every opinion be heard). The great thing is candidates wouldn't have to tow the party line because they would no longer need two parties to raise funds... Elections would be tighter and there would be more participation (because it's more interesting).

  11. Re:Money *needs* to be removed from Politics ... on Comcast Ghost-Writes Politician's Letters To Support Time Warner Mega-Merger · · Score: 1

    Publicly funded elections would be awesome (with complex rules ensuring multiple party elections, but that make sure participants to have x numbers of signatures or x percentage of polling). Don't need the Goat Herders of Little Russia North getting too much money for no reason :-)

  12. There should be a law on Comcast Ghost-Writes Politician's Letters To Support Time Warner Mega-Merger · · Score: 1

    There should be a law that letters and proposed laws/amendments should require a list of all contributors (bring the companies, lobbyists into the light).

  13. Re:If coders are 3 months, how long for CEOs? on Codecademy's ReSkillUSA: Gestation Period For New Developers Is 3 Months · · Score: 1

    Most CEOs are figure heads and useless individuals, so 1 day.

  14. Re:Read actual job ads to understand how useless on Codecademy's ReSkillUSA: Gestation Period For New Developers Is 3 Months · · Score: 1

    Yes, but we also know those job descriptions are a joke! Recruiter and/or HR people throw everything under the Sun in them and then suggest minimum pay.

  15. Computer Kit to AIO, AIO Phones to Phone Kits on Start-Up Vsenn Emerges From Stealth With Project Ara Modular Phone Competitor · · Score: 1

    Computer Kit to AIO, AIO Phones to Phone Kits is just another example of the big circle of the tech industry .

    Tooo slippery...

  17. slice & dice on Scientists Engineer Cancer-Killing Stem Cells · · Score: 1

    I love how this treatment requires slicing and dicing the patient, let's get anti-cd47 treatments moving. Stanford has clinical trials moving, hopefully they expand it and it continues to go well.

  18. Just enough time.. on "Double Irish" Tax Loophole Used By US Companies To Be Closed · · Score: 1

    Within that time frame another country will step forward to fill the need, don't worry corporate revenues won't decline :-)

  19. Apps with a following don't need the App Store on The Subtle Developer Exodus From the Mac App Store · · Score: 1

    But for small developers it can be a huge blessing (or just buried in the pile) :-)

    "Based on true story" can mean only one fact is in the whole story, it's Hollywood. Relax people! It's entertainment , either watch it or don't, hate it or love it or anywhere in between.
