So the story is Amazon provides cheap services by cutting costs. Is this new or some kind of bad thing? The way I see it the consumer benefits from cheaper service.
Get some fucking perspective people. This guy's (small) donation had zero effect on the proposition's outcome, nor did it have any effect on the Mozilla foundation (before anyone knew about it). All of his contributions to Mozilla have been exemplary and accepted until someone found out he supported pop 8.
Someone took a non-issue and cried "biggot", in effect doing more harm to Mozilla and Brendan Eich than was done by the donation itself.
The "Moral Authority" that has convicted Brendan Eich is unleashing a powerful weapon and setting a terrifying precedent in the U.S.: exercise free speech (read lobbying, money as free speech) and be ostracised.
It is comical that the "Moral Authority" on this issue fights for "Equality" by denying to others.
So if someone disagrees with you (or the article) they are immediately labeled a climate denier? Way to win an argument, might as well call them racist while you're at it.
I would love to see the Cop's thoughts on this. You would think that an officer of the law should be well aware of what the law is and when (they are) doing something is directly violating someone's rights (especially that of a child). I wonder how they felt intimidating a child?
I know at 5 o'clock when I'm getting onto the freeway and see miles of cars standing still, then looking around at the beaten, downtrodden, frustrated and exhausted commuters that this is indeed the pinnacle of human efficiency.
They say police may enter and search when they have the consent of an occupant. Because Fernandez was not there to object, “the police acted reasonably in relying on her [Fernandez's girlfriend’s] consent to search the premises,” Karlin wrote.
And by this logic, if noone is there to object they can search at will?
Seriously, how many people working there actually *have* to be there to perform some job function? I'm willing to bet most could easily work remotely. This will help traffic. No commute for the employee, and less traffic on the road for those that really do need to be on-site. The employee get's to live where they want to live. The "green" crowd is happy because of less greenhouse gasses and consumption of energy. The business will not have to house so many people, will save on utility bills, office supplies, insurance and rent - lowering operating costs.
The only people this does not appeal to is the boss-man fucktard overlord types that need to see an army of people sitting beneath them slaving feverishly away at killing time and trying to look busy. How else are they going get their ego boost?
Screw it. Might as well give up and end it all now, knowing that there may be a mass extinction sometime between 5,000 and 60,000 years from now. What's the point?

No kidding. Count how many /. Comments begin with "I"
What happened to playing with matches?
he should have been locked up for the rest of his life for abusing his authority against actual peaceful citizens
At least you have perspective.
and make them perceived as a tool (similar to a chainsaw or weed whacker)
I use my weed whacker far more often than a gun. Should we also require schools to teach children gardening and home maintenance?

The OpenBSD cometh.

When shit gets attacked it tries to get out of harms way. Thanks Slashdot. Now I know.

Perhaps ReactOS could be an alternative?
For the low price of $1.9K you can buy karma wrapped as a useless pile of shit or your choice any top of the line proprietary laptops.
Let China go first.
A bottle of opium is only a government-subsidized $5 script away for most, which explains the growing problem with painkiller addiction.
Exactly This.
This is why the "war on drugs" exists in the first place. It's a knee jerk reaction to a justifiable fear of addiction.

facebook will find a way to monetize me and what I do beyond the purchase price of the Rift. That's what they do;
Really? What facebook products have you purchased so far?
However such misleading headline doesn't surprise me: the UN is a master of over-hyped sky-is-falling chicken-little statistics.
I would love to see the statistic about how many people will use this statistic as evidence in their next argument.
I hope this is sarcasm.
Length is important because the longer the length the harder it is to brute force.
'The trouble is elephants are too smart to be fooled by us for long.'
We're doomed.
This is obvious flame bait.
I remember we did this study in the 5th grade. It was called "Telephone". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C...

Why not let your employees telecommute.

At some point wouldn't it just be easier to remove the classification altogether?
