  1. Re:Hypocrisy on A Biohacker Regrets Publicly Injecting Himself With CRISPR (theatlantic.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This isn't hypocrisy. This is a change of opinion.

  2. Re:Bill ISPs ? on Net Neutrality Rules Die on April 23 (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Sorry to hear that you're a credulous moron.

  3. Re:Bill ISPs ? on Net Neutrality Rules Die on April 23 (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    The FCC was enforcing Net Neutrality regulations on ISPs. In 2014 the DC District Court ruled that the FCC could not regulate ISPs unless they first classified them as Title II Common Carriers, which meant the Net Neutrality regulations would be void. This was the 2015 fight: to get the FCC to reclassify ISPs.

    You'd know all this if you were'n't a bloody idiot.

    That's because we had Net Neutrality before 2015, you bloody idiot.

  5. Re:The only diet that works... on Matching DNA To a Diet Doesn't Work (statnews.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    Allow me to present you this trophy for championship-level Missing the Point.

  6. Re:matching anything to diet doesn't work on Matching DNA To a Diet Doesn't Work (statnews.com) · · Score: 1

    I get the occasional Facebook ad for just this "service". Based on the comments I usually see, this article is needed.

  7. ...Poland's central bank was accused of hiring YouTubers...

    Since the accusation came from Business Insider, this is like when Fox News says "people are saying".

  8. Hard to attack the legitimacy of something doesn't have any.

  9. Re:So... on Flixster Video Shuts Down · · Score: 2

    The image Wikipedia has of him looks like he lost a fist fight with a lquor cabinet.

  10. Premature on Virgin Hyperloop One is Coming To India (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Why are they investing in building these things when their feasibility has yet to be demonstarted. Not to mention the safety and security issues that its proponents haven't even acknowledged.

  11. That would be a great incentive to get people to update from old firmware.

  12. Re:How do you authenticate authorship though? on Unsent Text On Mobile Counts As a Will, Australian Court Finds (abc.net.au) · · Score: 1

    But if the phone is password protected then no one will be able to read the will.

  13. Re:Prepare your will on Unsent Text On Mobile Counts As a Will, Australian Court Finds (abc.net.au) · · Score: 1

    Why should I hire a lawyer to write my will, when I can do it myself and just deposit it in my bank vault?

    So your family doesn't have to hire a lawyer to defend your will after you're dead.

  14. There is no Nobel Prize for economics on Why Is There No Nobel Prize In Technology? (qz.com) · · Score: 1

    No new category has been added since the prizes were established. The "Nobel Prize for Economics" is a sham that was created by bankers. The memorial prize for economics goes against everything Nobel stood for.

  15. If only we had a technology that allowed us to directly insert or modify genes in an organism. Some way to engineer the organism's genetics.

  16. The backup link is also paywalled.

  17. Re:Russia or China on The CCleaner Malware Fiasco Targeted at Least 20 Specific Tech Firms (wired.com) · · Score: 1

    It was Lithuania.

  18. Looks like Belize has just given up on getting him extradited.

  19. The problem is that John McAfee is known to be insane and disingenuous. There's good reason to just dismiss everything he says.

    According to your idiotic reasoning, we should carefully consider everything that Alex Jones spews.

  20. Re: Sounds about right... on Judge Kills FTC Lawsuit Against D-Link for Flimsy Security (dslreports.com) · · Score: 1

    But do you have any specific examples of the AC's reckless driving harming people?

  21. Re:No. We don't speak Latin on London Has Decided To Ban Uber (recode.net) · · Score: 1

    Most of the languages of Europe are derived from Latin. The reason that Latin isn't the lingua franca today has everything to do with when the Roman Empire died out and nothing to do with any characteristics of Latin or English that are falsely perceived as inherent. It's about political and militaristic influence, not about how much people "like" the language.

  22. Good on London Has Decided To Ban Uber (recode.net) · · Score: 1

    Hopefully this becomes a trend.

  23. You can't just go and stomp on the fanboy's feeling of superiority like that.

  24. I've lived on the east coast my entire life, and the only time I've heard of a bodega other than right here was when watching Half Baked.

  25. People want to go into a store and talk to someone.

    The last thing most people want when they go into a store is someone talking to them.
