    No, no, not a simple "check this checkbox to disable". Blocked the service initialization and removed the related WU files, WU cannot even start now and I do not check for updates anymore as a result.

    It must be interesting for the actual bitcoin creator to watch all of the drama around it unfold and wonder if you should say something or just continue to stay in the darkness. Do you laugh? Shake your head? Do you even care? Fun times.

    Well ... I devised the bitcoin actually as a weapon to bring chaos and destruction to you mortals and it's true I expected to see some good laughs seeing wall street go into a tailspin, but things got a bit out of control.

    Well, at least here where I live and neighboring states is really hard to find a Mc'Donnalds where the lunch is badly made. Of course there will always exist a guy so stupid that he can not do even a Big Mac right, but these ones quickly end up fired.

  7. They have another side of the issue on In Internet Age, Pirate Radio Arises As Surprising Challenge (ap.org) · · Score: 1

    Usually official radio channels are provided only for the "friends of government" or local politicians. Nobody wishing to create a truly community radio gets authorization and can only operate clandestinely. A radio channel for the holders of power is seen only as a "political tool" and they do not admit that they could fall into the "wrong hands" (common people).

    And consistency too. Usually when I'm in a new place where I do not know about the quality of local food I eat at Mc'Donnalds, because their process is so standardized that it is very difficult to make the sandwich the wrong way. It is not ideal of course, but you can rely that the sandwich will always be at least acceptable.

  10. Re:What parts of capitalism young people dislike on A Majority Of Millennials Now Reject Capitalism, Poll Shows (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 1

    This one. What we call "capitalism" today is simply a system to protect the rich and their children. No wonder they (the rich) require that the government does not interfere and let "the invisible hand of the market" solve everything. Tip: The "invisible hand" is the hand of the richs.

  11. Uhh... You realized that you just proved what I said? It only took me to write the "cursed" keyword and you react aggressively without thinking about what I meant. A automatic response, you noticed that?

  12. Caution. Most Americans have a Pavlovian response to anything resembling "communism", making them violent and hostile.

    It's normal. Here in Brazil you do not really have freedom of speech, if you do not agree with the crazy ideas of the extreme right-wings they put several "dogs" after you to post garbage wherever you go.

    It is even more complicated than The intercept described. The judiciary has also sold to the coup, the judges are deciding against the very laws that they should follow in the case. It's like the judge judges that you are guilty of murder even though you have never killed anyone and the police agree that you did not kill anyone.

    And personally for you, I have two choices. If you wrote what you wrote for reading the native media of my country, think again . It's the same thing you get informed through a really worsened version of Fox News. And if you wrote knowing that I tell the truth and still came trolling, well ... Fuck you.

    See my fellow slashdotters?

    They are watching all possible forums to post lies if they find someone trying to describe what is happening. Who accuses me of being a troll ignores the detail that the process is happening illegally by not having a justification, under Brazilian law impeachment proceedings can only occur in response to the crimes committed by the President (which did not happen). He also omits to you the fact that Congress is completely corrupt, you may have seen the circus that they did in the lower house vote. Plus, he also omits detail that the judiciary is involved in the coup too.

    And as they did in 1964, they also try to say that the coup is a "process within the law." If this were a baseball game, they would have purchased the judge, inspectors and commentators to claim that they are "playing fair".

    There is a similar group doing the same thing in Brazil to help in the coup against President Dilma. The only difference is that Brazilians trolls are really easy to be identified by the stupidity and nonsense of their comments.

    "...The publication claims that the iPhone maker has a team working on "paid searches" -- something similar to Google's model."

    So that's why I only get garbage on the results of my searches on Google Play? At best one or two relevant results and the following not having nothing to do with what I was looking for? Dammit!

  21. "It's also interesting that there seem to be certain trigger words that some people developed a Pavlovian response to. I think that deserves a lot more research."

    Gotcha. I find it often. You just need to write certain keywords that quickly someone writes a crazed response. As example in my country if you just type "communism", promptly someone will want to kill you as if we were still in the cold war.

    Here in Brazil, usually when a site has a comment section based on Facebook is guaranteed that you will find the dumbest people you can imagine posting the most absurd/hatefull/shitty things. To avoid getting sick I usually block Facebook in its entirety using adblock and noscript.

    Truth be told, the majority of my fellow Brazilians have shit between the ears (is the origin of the "HUEHUEBR"), so a tool that allows me to take no notice of their comments is an absolute must. It is the best way to get rid of a troll: make his efforts useless, even the dumbest of the trolls will realize at some point that no one listens to him (for not even seeing what he's posting).

    Tell me more. I am a systems analyst with ten years of experience and I am seriously considering leaving forever the shithole that Brazil is becoming. Laws here are not worth nothing anymore and everything is moving towards a civil war. I may have to leave the country while I still can (before the country becoming a dictatorship again).
