  1. Intercept calls and track locations on New Flaws In 4G, 5G Allow Attackers To Intercept Calls and Track Phone Locations (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 2, Funny

    Hardly sounds like a "flaw".

  2. Let's just put them on the endangered species list.

  3. Re:Habitual liars run the government? on FCC Says Gutting ISP Oversight Was Great For Broadband (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    No, this is your fight. From here, everybody's just blowing smoke. You can save the GOP/DNC bullshit

    Everybody has control over themselves, don't take it as a personal offense, unless you're trying to distract from the issue.

  5. Re:Hollywood Blockbuster in the making on Scientists Release Controversial Genetically Modified Mosquitoes In High-Security Lab (npr.org) · · Score: 1

    "Hollywood" doesn't care one way or the other. They simply do what they are paid to do. "Escaped lab animals" has already been done several times over.

    Yeah, I guess taking the initiative to actually seek out the truth is too much to ask.

  7. Re:Lying is easy on FCC Says Gutting ISP Oversight Was Great For Broadband (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    Lying is easy when people aren't interested in the details. Nobody cares. When people do start caring, you will see completely different election results.

    Lying is what wins elections. Why do you suppose that is?

    Yes, I'm sure the lab is "very secure".

  10. Re:"awkward period" == 10+ years/Look at alternati on Apple Expected To Move Mac Line To Custom ARM-Based Chips Starting Next Year, Says Report (axios.com) · · Score: 1

    From that summary:
    Without a development platform, ARM in the server space is never going to make it.

    Maybe Apple is out to provide that platform... Pure speculation, of course, but why not?

  11. They're turning Macs into phones with keyboards and bigger screens

    Yeah well, who didn't see that coming 10 years ago? It's logical for their business model. The Mac is a ball and chain.

  12. Re:Don't link back to taxation and tyranny. on European Governments Approve Controversial New Copyright Law (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 2

    Yes, they are. Whether you realize it or not, they are a perfect reflection of how much people care.

    More to the point, he should've used a '72 Datsun

    Don't know wtf my fellow sheep are doing voting for these assholes.

    This is exactly the problem. All our problems are self inflicted. But we do need a way to protect the minority from the majority that wants to fuck them.

  15. Re:Quit making idiotic statements for coverage! on Cooking Sunday Roast Causes Indoor Pollution 'Worse Than Delhi' (theguardian.com) · · Score: 0

    Honestly, what we need is to add computer algorithms which STOP exposing us to stupid useless stories, to reduce the overall demand.

    Oh no, just go the old fashion route.

    But yes, the story is stupid. I would call it a complete waste, but somebody made money from it..

  16. Optics is the new "appearances", facade? veneer, style, look...

    People wanna sound cool.

      As for Facebook? Eh... it's the free market at work. As for the users, a bit of self control is in order. Just assume they record everything, because most likely they are, no matter what some stupid "privacy" policy says, and you will never know, unless somebody gets sloppy. What's the point of arguing?

  17. Re:The only solution is jail on Unearthed Emails Show Google, Ad Giants Know They Break Privacy Laws (theregister.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    Hard time in prison.

    I know that's a turn on for some people, but wage/salary garnishment and making them clean up litter in the park is sufficient. Also it would be a justifiable use of asset forfeiture, including copyrights and patents.

  18. When happens when a shoe gets bricked? on Nike Bricks Its Shoes With a Faulty Firmware Update (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Does it stick to the ground? You can't move? What? Will they replace the classic mafia cinder blocks?

  19. Re:Not about free speech on Pinterest Cracks Down on Anti-Vaxxers, Pressuring Facebook To Follow (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Anti-vaxxers are hurting people...

    No, the believers are. The followers are the people to target. I understand the political expediency of going after the "leader", but I don't agree.

    The more important issue though is the development of ad hoc networks that can't be shutdown. Them maybe we don't have to waste time and energy discussing and imposing censorship.

  20. ~1997 works for me

  21. Yeah, but he's not a doctor

  22. Nice bit of bullshit here: on 'Samsung's One UI Is the Best Software It's Ever Put On a Smartphone' (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Historically, we've thought of all those customizations as unnecessary add-ons. But that's not quite right anymore -- customizing AOSP is necessary these days. Instead, we should judge a Samsung phone on its own merits as a phone, not as stuff bolted on to some idealized "pure" version of the phone that can't really exist anymore.

    In other words, he's saying, "You may not like Bixby and Facebook, etc, but suck it, bitches!"

    Oy! The things we have to put up with to get a headphone jack!

  23. Heh, just saw a comment up above on DC Cancels Comic Where Jesus Learns From Superhero After Outcry (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1
