    It'll pretty much smell exactly like soil does now.

  2. But...but...but....I thought... on The FCC Is Preparing To Weaken the Definition of Broadband (dslreports.com) · · Score: 0

    Wasn't getting rid of all those burdensome Obama era net neutrality regulations going to create massive new investments from our telecom companies? And the Tax changes are going to create all sorts of jobs! If we survive the next 3 years w/out falling so far behind the rest of the developed world it'll be a miracle.

    Millions!

  4. No one knew how hard getting to Mars ones! No one!

  5. How long until the average person realizes that it's robots taking the jobs not the Mexicans/immigrants. And then the problem becomes what can we build a wall around to stop them?

  6. Yes, yes. This will go swimmingly. on FCC Chairman Ajit Pai Plans Fast-Track Repeal of Net Neutrality (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    If telecom companies were asked to do things voluntarily we'd all still be getting really fine service from our nationwide monopoly.

    You have the right to your own opinion, you don't have the right to your own facts.

    Really? We are there.

  9. This has been a problem for awhile on A US Ally Shot Down a $200 Drone With a $3 Million Patriot Missile (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    We, as in the US, tend to think that we need to use a 400 billion dollar plane to drop a 40 thousand dollar bomb on a 15 dollar tent.

    Hasn't anyone watched a sci-fi movie in the past 20 years?

  12. Nelson Rating on John McCain Working On Legislation For 'a La Carte' TV Channel Packages · · Score: 2

    I gotta admit, I just took a Nelson rating diary survey, and all its done is made me realize how much I'd like to cancel my increasingly expensive cable service. I watched maybe 8 hours of broadcast TV during the week I kept the diary.

  13. huh? on "SMSZombie" Malware Infects 500,000 Android Users In China · · Score: 1

    How is that a lengthy process beyond the skill of most android users? My father could do that easily and he barely knows how to dial his android.

  14. Re:So, basically ... on The Ugly, Profitable Details About Xbox Live Advertising · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Lots of people pay for cable, and there's a ton of ads on it. Just saying.

  15. Im all for... on Clothier Slammed For Using 'Perfect' Virtual Model · · Score: 1

    ...promoting healthy body image and all, but no one expects General Motors to advertize their latest car in south central LA, why should clothing companies be required to advertize their products on ugly fat people?

  16. Re:Sad on SMK Toughens Up Those Tiny Micro-USB Connections · · Score: 1

    I often do, yes, when they available, but they often aren't. And when did we vote to have our consumer products replaced with cheap crap? I'm honestly asking, not trolling.

  17. Sad on SMK Toughens Up Those Tiny Micro-USB Connections · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Anyone else think its gotten a bit sad that a company building something to last/stand up to use has become a news story?

  18. In Before Zombie Plague on New Drug Could Cure Nearly Any Viral Infection · · Score: 1

    Just sayin...it thinks all your braincells are viruses and turns you into a ZOMBIE.

  19. Re:Pathetic on Aerospace Engineer Named Lego Czar · · Score: 3, Insightful

    37,500 is pretty decent to have fun and play with legos for a few years, rather than work at some soul crushing corporate job.

  22. Re:How many ways are there to do simple things? on Why Computer Science Students Cheat · · Score: 1

    I actually remember getting in trouble back in school for having similar code to some friends of mine that used a stack to count the number of A's and B's in a string. Exactly how many was is that supposed to be done? for(all char in string) if(is an A) push else if(is a B) pop if(stack is empty) return true; hooray! plagiarism!

  24. Re:Vaporware on Chevy Volt Rated At 230 mpg In the City · · Score: 1

    This isnt software. They cant just decide to go gold with that days build and start stamping media. This is a car. In order for it to be produced in 2010, its design would need to be all but final, its production methods laid out, tested, and prepared for, if not already implemented in one of GM's plants. Comparing this process to duke nukem is little more than a +5 funny karam grab.

  25. Re:Vaporware on Chevy Volt Rated At 230 mpg In the City · · Score: 1

    I heard this as well, but don't we seem to see on a yearly basis about issue when some southern city (like atlanta or etc) has a huge heatwave and theyre begging people to turn down their AC units?
