  1. Re:Wasn't Assange just the leaker? on US Government Admits It Doesn't Know If Assange Cracked Password For Manning (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    My understanding is they are trying to hit him with a conspiracy change. "Oh you need help? This is how you do blah." He is now involved in the hack.

    Adopted, but yes

    Yeah I could see Trump doing that

    Sounds like it is well known and he came up with a patch that covers all/more of the special cases.

  5. Re:YouTube red on YouTube TV Costs $50 Per Month After Another Price Hike (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    I swapped my HTPC for a Nvidia Shield and haven't looked back. I use Kodi as the front end and it simply launches the AndroidTV app (Youtube, Netflix, Amazon, HBOGo, Disney, Nick, etc).

  6. I take it you don't know the facts of that case, I find it amusing that it is quotes so often. Try googling Schenck v. United States

  7. Open Office on Remote Work Works, a New Google Study Finds (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 1

    Are all of the centrally located teams in an open office, I wonder if the remote teams function just as well because they aren't being constantly interrupted?

  8. No it isn't really bad at both it is actually fairly good at both, it just doesn't get to the same level as a purpose built bell will get.

  9. No text to speech crap either

    Most firearms when it really comes down to it. AK while easy to maintain is more known for being rugged.

  11. Re: For an immediate cheering up on Linux Mint 19.2 'Tina' is On the Way, But the Developers Seem Defeated and Depressed (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    It works in political discussions, so why not?

    How many decades ago was this?

  13. Re:I wish there were more video stores on Blockbuster Video Now Has Just One Store Left On Earth (apnews.com) · · Score: 1

    Yup one near us, it isn't bad at all. New releases are a bit more expensive than Redbox but they will actually be available, those will drop to recent releases soon enough and be a bit cheaper than redbox, older stuff is $1 for a week and a nice chuck of that is rent one get one. There also appears to be a section of kids movies that are just free, but I haven't actually looked into what is actually going on.

  14. Re:I understand... on Elizabeth Warren Calls For a National Right-to-Repair Law for Tractors (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    David Duke jumped back to Democrat, he hates Donald Trump

    Not an angel but burglary and DUI? No, nowhere even fucking close to those.

  17. Re:Why journalism? on Consumer Groups Want To Tax Facebook To Save Journalism (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    Agreed on NPR but they have a habit of not reporting things that are inconvenient

  18. If the orbits were circular we would be talking about Tycho Brahe instead.

  19. Then maybe start listening, so people can stop repeating themselves?

  20. Leave it the fuck alone on Microsoft Asks Users To Call Windows 10 Devs About ALT+TAB Feature (bleepingcomputer.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Leave it the fuck alone

  21. You can hold Alt and then click on the window you want

  22. And you play the role of a cowboy and everything in the old west just kinda moseyed on. Apparently if you can get into it and move at the game's pace it is a fantastic immersive experience if you can't it is complete shit.

  23. Re:dvd.com on Netflix is Testing Even More Expensive Subscription Prices (bgr.com) · · Score: 1

    Yeah it does not work for TV shows they mail you a DVD and not the season. Check your local library and/or Family Video (amazingly enough they still exist), I've had good success there.

  25. Re:How have they not noticed this before? on How Hard is it To Have a Conversation on Twitter? So Hard Even the CEO Can't Do It. (recode.net) · · Score: 1

    The half joking theory I have is high frequency trading algorithms are all hooked into Twitter and it has been beneficial to to the HFT firms so they keep investing in twitter just to keep at alive. The insanity of the stock market for the last year is just a reflection on HFT thinking twitter is a reality and acting accordingly while everyone else disagreeing with that assessment and making moves in the other direction.
    A little bit of evidence of that is Apple stock crashing on the news Jobs died and Nintendo's stock jumping a huge amount when PokemonGo was released (Nintendo gets a cut but it isn't actually a Nintendo game).
