  1. Re:Not faring too well? on Coinbase Adds Support For Bitcoin Cash [Update: Disabled] · · Score: 1

    Oh yeah going to crash any day now when bitcoin is $20. Going to crash soon at $200. Going to crash at $2000. Surely it will crash at $20,000... Nope hasn't crashed yet. Never quite hit $20k but at $17.2k currently.

  2. It sells pretty much immediately. Hell you could have bought in when it was $80 a few weeks ago and cashed out today while its holding at around $320. Pretty nice return there for no work.

  3. You keep saying that and I keep making money... Litecoin is going to break $500 by the end of the week.

  4. Better than 90% of the population can't tell CD audio from 320kbps mp3.

  5. Winamp still runs just as fine as it did nearly two decades ago. It plays mp3s and plays them well. End of story. A hammer purchased today still looks like a hammer from a millennia ago for a reason. Programmers need to learn that philosophy.

  6. Re:Don't forget... on Ajit Pai Taunts Net Neutrality Critics. Mark Hamill Taunts Ajit Pai (mashable.com) · · Score: 1

    By the way Skywalker pulls an Obi Wan and becomes a force ghost, Kylo Ren cuts Snoke in half and puppet Yoda shows up.

  7. Re:It depends on your risk-management philosphy on Can Intel's 'Management Engine' Be Repurposed? · · Score: 1

    Good times at school with that and netbus.

  8. Re:HCF was not about working in tech on What's The Best TV Show About Working in Tech? (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 1

    The show is praised by many people. Perhaps you should give it another watch.

  9. Re:I know this isn't a popular opinion on 'The Gawker Foundation' is Crowdfunding a Bid To Re-Launch Gawker.com (savegawker.com) · · Score: 1

    How can Gawker have any credibility? They claimed looking at leaked nudes of Jennifer Lawrence equated to sexual assault. Meanwhile they were ignoring court orders to take down the Hogan sex tape. Both are famous celebrities so what is the difference?

  10. Re:You're a fool if you don't hedge investments on Bitcoin Jumps Another 10% in 24 Hours, Sets New Record at $19,000 (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Neck beards are really stuck on this tulip thing. They said the bitcoin bubble would bust at $200, then $2000, and here we are nearly hitting $20,000 and no signs of stopping. Just admit this is new territory and doesn't work the same as traditional stocks.

  11. Do what they do best? on 'The Gawker Foundation' is Crowdfunding a Bid To Re-Launch Gawker.com (savegawker.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    Show sex tapes of Hulk Hogan? Just what the world wants to see.

  12. For $3000 I could buy a fun beater car to ride around in.

  13. Re:$ or it didn't happen on Canadian Cellphone Bills Are Some of the Highest In the World, Says Report (straight.com) · · Score: 1

    The secret is to buy a US plan and just have it roam constantly in Canada. Still cheaper.

  14. Spoiler on Star Wars: The Last Jedi Has Critics In Raptures (bbc.com) · · Score: 0

    Yoda shows up. Big fucking deal.

  15. Credit card fee on Patreon Scraps New Service Fee, Apologizes To Users (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    The credit card charge is a bullshit argument. Patreon bills you monthly so they only get hit with the fee once. They were going to add a fee to EVERY pledge. So if someone makes 10 videos in a month Patreon would have taken the fee 10 times. Had that been $1 pledges they would have pocketed $3.70 on top of the $10 they charged you.

  16. Good one on Sexual Harassment In Tech Is As Old As the Computer Age (ieee.org) · · Score: 1

    Then you woke up.

  17. Re:Yet another downside of Bitcoin on People Who Can't Remember Their Bitcoin Passwords Are Really Freaking Out Now (slate.com) · · Score: 1

    You're an idiot. Head over to gdax and once you bank account is linked you can transfer like $20k a day...

  18. Well in that case we are looking at a near decade long pyramid scam.

  19. Why bother even wasting power on your unused memory then? Might as well unplug it and sell it for a few bucks. If it uses those extra unused gigs to display pages faster then who cares? People brag about how much ram they own then bitch when something actually uses it.

  20. Memory is there to be used. I'm not talking about bloat or inefficiency either. Why not take advantage of system resources?

  21. How is it a pyramid when I can buy in, make money, and then cash out?

  22. I've been making money all week. Don't know why everyone here calls it a pyramid scheme or even scam. Don't forget its also a bubble that is going to pop! Said everyone when it hit $100, then $1000, then $10,000. Almost hit $20k but self corrected down to $15k now.

  23. Re:FAR worse that that.. on No One Makes a Living on Crowdfunding Website Patreon (theoutline.com) · · Score: 1

    The fees don't matter as Patreon bills you in a monthly lump sum. Now if I'm paying someone $1 per video four times a month Patreon will start billing me $1.37 four times. An extra $1.48 right there.

  24. Raising prices on No One Makes a Living on Crowdfunding Website Patreon (theoutline.com) · · Score: 1

    Just got an email from Patreon today saying they are adding a service fee every month now. I guess they have to pay for whoever designed their new shitty logo. Plus their app gets more terrible with every update. Going the Snapchat route of meaningless buttons.

  25. reason to turn off javascript and only whitelist sites.
