  1. It exists so that people can make that javascript popup that says "This site only supports Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0+".

  2. Re:Rich people don't need others on Rich People Pay Less Attention To Other People, Says Study (businessinsider.com) · · Score: 1

    No, you're going completely off topic. I'm talking about how rich people make things happen, not how they make money.

  3. Rich people don't need others on Rich People Pay Less Attention To Other People, Says Study (businessinsider.com) · · Score: 2

    Studies show rich people have it going for themselves. They don't need to look at or rely on others to get shit done. They just throw money around and things happen. Unlike poor people who have to talk to their peers to get anything done. Well shit. Who knew?

  4. If white people spent a proportional amount of time living in a ghetto and doing nothing but playing basketball all day since young, then there would similarly be many white people who were as good as black people. But poor white people don't live the same way poor black people do. The community is just different.

  5. He let the door hit him on the way in.

  6. Do you have a study that proves this? If you don't, then I don't believe you.

  7. You can buy knowledge for $29.95 sure, but do you have the wisdom to use it correctly?

  8. Re:Basic Math time on Maximizing Economic Output With Linear Programming...and Communism (medium.com) · · Score: 1

    You're assuming everyone is unemployed? http://www.tradingeconomics.co... suggests a 5% unemployment rate for 2016. That's 16 million unemployed people, or $160b/year. That wouldn't even cause a dent in the defense budget. Actually, according to wikipedia, it would cost about the same as a war on Iraq. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

  9. Corporate thinking at its finest on A New Corporate AI Can Read Your Emails - and Your Mind (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    Let's combat the symptom, not the cause. If people are unhappy with their work conditions, we must expunge them before they become a nuisance. Get back to work you drones.

  10. Drop it like it's hot! Drop it like it's hot! Will the real Satoshi please stand up? I repeat, will the real Satoshi please stand up?

  11. Sounds like a SWAT team, which I'm guessing is standard procedure when breaking and entering. I don't know how the German police works.

  12. Germany. Not USA.

  13. How do they come up with this stuff on RSA Keys Can Be Harvested With Microphones (theregister.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    How do they come up with this stuff? Seriously?

  14. Re:I guess he's never worked on hardware or softwa on Elon Musk: 'One In Billions' Chance We're Not Living In A Computer Simulation (vox.com) · · Score: 2

    Or it could just be this is the umpty infinitillionth run of this particular simulation, where the bugs have, for the most part, been fixed?

  15. Re:Scientology not Science on Elon Musk: 'One In Billions' Chance We're Not Living In A Computer Simulation (vox.com) · · Score: 1

    Who's to say there aren't a few million civilizations accidentally triggering their star to go super nova because they fiddled with laws infinitely more complex than anything we've touched upon, where the bugs really start happening?

  16. Einhorn is a man!?!?

  17. It's good for the planet on Rise In CO2 Has 'Greened Planet Earth' (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    It's good for the planet. But not for us. It's going to suck for us. Planet will survive though, no doubt about it.

  18. Encoding. It's hard.

  19. It's not ripe yet.

  20. Re:media double standard on dangerous leaks on Leaked Islamic State Documents Identify Thousands of Jihadis (sky.com) · · Score: 1

    It may be slander or patriotism or none of the above, that still doesn't make it cool to uncritically release information about people who may or may not be associated by relation.

    TheGarbz, +1-555-THE-GARBZ, 52 Garbz Street, USA, he's an IS supporter. Oh wait he's not? Well fuck him anyway. Patriotism, fuck yeah!

    Outsource to IBM? They'll regret that decision very soon. Really. Very, very soon.

  23. Why not let them cheat? on New Smartwatches Allow Students To Cheat On Exams · · Score: 1

    Why not let people cheat on exams? They're going to cheat their way through their work life afterwards anyway. Can't use the internet? Why not? Not like the internet is going anywhere afterwards.

    "But the exam exists to test the rote memorization skills of people! They can't be allowed to cheat!" Why not? Can you remember everything you've ever read, or do you yourself look up material when you can't remember? Did the people who wrote the tests get every question from memory, or did they pour through books and references to find the least useful questions ever?

    If Jimmy leaves USA on a spaceplane going 10,000 miles per hour, can an Oreo the size of Texas truly feed the starving people in Who Gives A Fuck?

    A) Yes B) No C) Why isn't Jimmy a woman? Women can do everything men can do too and I think Jimmy should be a woman.

  24. Copyright is the new weed on TPP Change Means Drastically Higher Penalties For Copyright "Infringement" (eff.org) · · Score: 2

    They can't justify sending people to jail for personal use of weed anymore, so copyright is the new "it". Jails gotta make money too, guys.

    They sent away their hairdressers and door to door salesmen and phone cleaners, and the ones that didn't die out from phone-transmitted diseases regressed to the point of cavemen due to bad hair and nothing to buy.
