  1. I am altering the deal on MoviePass Is Limiting Selection To 'Up To Six Films' a Day (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 5, Funny

    ... pray I don't alter it any further - Vader

  2. 30 years on How Close Are We, Really, To Nuclear Fusion? · · Score: 4, Funny

    30 years. Didn't you get the memo? It came out 40 years ago.

  3. Re:Win10 is worse than Win8 on Ask Slashdot: Can You Disable Windows 10's Privacy-Invading Features? · · Score: 1

    For all intensive purposes, "whom" is no longer a word.

    It appears "for all intents and purposes" is no longer a phrase.

  4. Why does it have to be one or the other? on Uber Class-Action Case May Hinge On What the Drivers Want · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Years ago, I worked for an IT consulting company that gave its workers the option of being full employees (with a standard benefits package including 401K, health insurance, paid time off, etc.) OR contractors who received no benefits, but a significantly higher wage. The client paid the same rate either way, the workers got to choose which arrangement worked best for them, and the consulting company (presumably) got their cut ... a true win-win.

    I'm sure the trade-offs with Uber aren't exactly the same, but I still don't see why they can't offer their workers more than one option.

  5. Re:This works 100% on How a Scientist Fooled Millions With Bizarre Chocolate Diet Claims · · Score: 1

    The only thing I know that works is actually eating less.

    You're half right. Losing weight is about reducing your net caloric intake. That's calories in - calories out. In other words, you can eat less (fewer calories in) or move more (more calories out) or both.

    Eating less works, yes, but it's certainly not the only way.

  6. Re:Kansas isn't even remotely flat on Shape of the Universe Determined To Be Really, Really Flat · · Score: 3, Funny

    Not only is Kansas flat, it's literally flatter than a pancake.

  7. IMHO, the patent system isn't flawed, it's the lackluster way patent offices grant new patents..

    The patent office isn't part of the patent system??
