The people on slashdot don't want to here insightful or informative comments. They just want to hear what they agree with.
So I will just make a half attempt at a joke. I for one welcome our new singularity condition calculating overlords.
Did you know slashdot mod points are traded in real time in yahoo groups? It doesn't matter whether or not a comment is any good. It's a scratch my back mentality. And I bet this comment remains without mod points.
Meanwhile, a climate change agency would be a fantastic idea, but the majority of americans (the dumb ones) believe global warming to be a liberal lie. So.... good luck getting it going.
No, new game, new players. SpaceX proves themselves to be profitable before the government of the US decided to put money in for development of the ISS resupply missions.
But no one will mod me insightful.
Or maybe, the stigma of alabama needs to go away.
If we were talking about trailer parks or something, I would laugh along with you guys.
But in a story about the space industry?
Alabama has 2 things to be very proud of.
The space industry, and college football.
That's it! But you can't let us have that can you?
No. Everything must turn into a "alabama is dumb hicks" joke. Real classy.
No, and my wife who is a former prof at an alabama university just read the comments over my shoulder and she wanted me to point out she finds it very offensive.
You have yet to show a correlation between alabama and ignorance. Specifically, a higher ignorance rate statistically over other states. Including your own.
As someone who was born and raised in alabama. I think your attempt at a joke was ridiculous. I also think it shows how classy of a person you are. Just go ahead and make fun of the same alabamians that got us to the moon.
Do you really want a populous of dumb americans who can't seem to figure out a gas pump, to be throwing around lith-ion batteries that can explode after physical abuse?
I can post picture and videos of people having "accidents" at gas stations to prove my point if you want...
Could this be a sign that google (the company famous for NOT needing to advertise), decided it was time to start advertising?
Why? Are they scared of losing marketshare?
I loved the commercial, simple to the point, and relaxing, while pulling at heart strings. But what gives? Why is google advertising when they are a noun and verb?
"That's a bit selfish don't you think?"
Yep.
"Would you rather we ruin the country just so you can see it?"
Please provide some evidence that going to mars, today or ten years from now would ruin the country.
I wonder if the study compensated for anti-social tendencies such as psychopathic, and if the hormonal instincts to compete (which are strongest during adolescence) was also adjusted for.

It would take the load off. Meteorology and climatology are two different fields, although they are closely related.

Im an athiest. Your statistics mean nothing to me.
Yep, and It's my freedom to say I don't like it.
Stereotype jokes don't bother me. It was just the circumstances of this joke was deliberate. It was intentionally insulting.

A facebook browser? That's a horrible idea. The website doesn't work right half the time.
Better let techdirt know about your upcoming lawsuit then.

For an apology from Jenny Mcarthy. After all, it has been the primary study she has been touting for years as her "evidence".
I wonder if the study compensated for anti-social tendencies such as psychopathic, and if the hormonal instincts to compete (which are strongest during adolescence) was also adjusted for.
Somebody explain to me how this helps them go to mars in my lifetime. I may have 50 years left on the planet. I would like to see us go to mars.
Don't be evil
It was called the NGage and it failed. Now nobody wants to take the chance.
Why am I thinking of Real Genius? "Stop playing with yourself!"
we want something easy and fast. Chrome gives us this.......... for now...
Looks like Elon Musk would beat them there anyway.
Oh come on!!! Worst slashdot funny post ever!
