  1. You must follow the correct process. on Ask Slashdot: Choosing a Data Warehouse Server System? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    1. Hire some bonehead that is expendable and ask him to make the decision.
    2. Fire him when the project fails.
    3. Nobody will ever bring this up again.

    Microwave oven magnetron and a small parabolic dish wifi antenna and all your drone belong to me.

  3. Re:Educational Post on Two Sailors Injured When Drone Crashes Into US Navy Guided Missile Cruiser · · Score: 1

    Exactly if the ship would have been weapons free and engaging with missiles and CIWS that drone would have been turned into a shredded fireball.

  4. Re:armor on the struck ship was disappointing on Two Sailors Injured When Drone Crashes Into US Navy Guided Missile Cruiser · · Score: 1

    Well being that it is a expensive drone I doubt they had weapons free on it. Had they been able to engage with with VLS surface to air missiles and CIWS it would have been shredded to bits.

  9. Re:Fucking idiots on U.S. Government: Sorry, We're Closed · · Score: 1

    That $300 dollar plan you speak of likely has a deductible of around 6k as well. So not only are you forced to buy it but you are forced to buy it, for the most part it is worthless to you. Now some idiot is like to chime in here and start talking about subsidies, well subsidies are not monthly checks, bill collectors however work in the here and now.

  10. Re:Population Problems on Malaria Vaccine Nearing Reality · · Score: 1

    A much better idea is to tax children and I mean heavily as in thousands per year.

    Hey with the introduction of Fracking there is not problem with the availability of gas to create electricity to power these green vehicles. LOL

    Affordable vs smart based on ROI is two entirely different things.

    6,000 gallons that is what roughly 24k in cash now add interest vs the price of a standard car and the math does not work out well.

  18. Re:The best thing about Tesla so far on Tesla Motors May Be Having an iPhone Moment · · Score: 1

    I might love one also if it did not involve the reality that what I would be doing is paying for fuel for the life of the car up front including interest.

  19. Obama on The NSA: Never Not Watching · · Score: 5, Informative

    "You've grown up hearing voices that incessantly warn of government as nothing more than some separate, sinister entity that's at the root of all our problems," Obama said. "You should reject these voices. Because what these suggest is that somehow our brave, creative, unique experiment in self-rule is just a sham with which we can't be trusted."

  20. Re:As far as I'm concerned . . . on Tesla To Blanket US With Superchargers In Two Years · · Score: 1

    Exactly it is like me going to a car dealership and buying the car and the gas for the life of it and paying interest on both up front. Then we add another 5K paid by someone else all for the luxury of having a low range inconvenient vehicle. I have nothing against electric vehicles but they are going to have to get hell of a lot more practical before I jump into one.
