  1. Re: All according to plan on Walmart Is Cutting 7,000 Jobs Due To Automation (yahoo.com) · · Score: 1

    Won't work out that way though. It'll just mean fewer jobs and a huge need for welfare and healthcare for the unemployed... And higher profits of course.

  2. Re: Note if we can stop.. on Study: Cutting Sugar From Diet Shows Immediate Health Benefits (wiley.com) · · Score: 1

    The carbs in wheat products spike blood sugar just like sugar. Sugar free means nothing unless you reduce carbs overall.

  3. Re: This is silly on Automation Coming To Restaurants, But Not Because of Minimum Wage Hikes · · Score: 1

    not if workers don't benefit. which has been the case since 1980 or so. until workers see some benefit from the increased productivity, the economy will essentially go nowhere for the middle class.

  4. Re:The diet is unimportant... on Low-Carb Diet Trumps Low-Fat Diet In Major New Study · · Score: 1

    beef, chicken, bacon, butter, fish, greens, broccoli.....

  5. Re:The diet is unimportant... on Low-Carb Diet Trumps Low-Fat Diet In Major New Study · · Score: 1

    You body doesn't necessarily needs grains and sugar, so you're correct. I've lost 247 pounds so far on no sugar, carbs/grains, and starch.

  6. Re:Flip the switch on Fermilab Begins Testing Holographic Universe Theory · · Score: 1

    Wait til the mods get installed. Oh god, wait til the mods get installed.

  7. Re:Safety vs Law on Google's Driverless Cars Capable of Exceeding Speed Limit · · Score: 1

    You would be roadkill in Atlanta in about 30 seconds.

  8. Just about all cash would could have that smell. I need to invent a thing that allows you to literally launder your cash now.

  9. Re:Nuke those terrorists on Gaza's Only Power Plant Knocked Offline · · Score: 2

    it would be more like New Jersey nuking its jail if the jail were 99% full of innocent people who happened to live on the property before the jail was built

  10. Re:Not just that on Sony Overtakes Rival Nintendo In Console Sales · · Score: 1

    Exactly. the wii was a fad console, which made a killing on sales, but they weren't the kind of gamers who continually paly the system and buy new games. With Micorsoft and Sony around though, that may be the best console-selling strategy for them. The alternative is going the Sega route. They'd make a killing that way.

  11. Re:What are the demographics like? on Apple Confirms Purchase of Beats For $3 Billion · · Score: 1

    You'd probably be wrong.

  12. Re:I dislike Beats... on Apple Confirms Purchase of Beats For $3 Billion · · Score: 1

    Sennheisers are my babies. I need another pair.

  13. Re:I dislike Beats... on Apple Confirms Purchase of Beats For $3 Billion · · Score: 1

    No they aren't bad at all, and thousands of internet sound engineers have taken the 'overpriced' description and interpreted that as 'total crap'. They're not bad headphones - good ones actually, just not as good as their price, and too bassy for some. They're a fashion statement - pay less and get the same or better sound, or wear the fashion and pay for that privilege.

  14. Our money is wheat for the reaping on The Best Parking Apps You've Never Heard Of and Why You Haven't · · Score: 1

    So now I need an app to help me park with as little butthurt as possible. It could be that people haven't realized how thoroughtly nickle-and-dimed our lives have become. It's pretty sad. Any everytime I try and think of something sadder, its already been done.

  15. Re:What about the inherent bias? on IPCC's "Darkest Yet" Climate Report Warns of Food, Water Shortages · · Score: 1

    That's not science, it's policy. We can't get going on policy until we at least resolve that something is wrong.

  16. Phase changes on Last Week's Announcement About Gravitational Waves and Inflation May Be Wrong · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I think phase changes on a universal scale is an amazing thing to ponder.

  17. Re: UMS on Ask Slashdot: Suggestions For a Simple Media Server? · · Score: 1

    because my router sucks, and with more walls between me and the router, by bandwidth drops severely.

  18. Re: UMS on Ask Slashdot: Suggestions For a Simple Media Server? · · Score: 4, Informative

    SMB streams 1080P stuff fine across my network, as long as I'm close to the router. 720P is damn good anywhere in the house. Been doing it for a long time, most lately on my Nexus 7 and my GBox MX2.

  19. Why on The True Color of Ancient Sea Creatures · · Score: 1

    Why didn't god make them rainbow colored?

  20. Re:Yes! on International Space Station Mission Extended To 2024 · · Score: 0

    Surprised he didn't privatize it.

  21. What bothers me is the additional revenue this will generate for AT&T may entice Sprint to go the same route by ending unlimited LTE and going to caps and metering. It's just another enticement. I'm digging my Sprint service just as it is.

  22. Re:Clearly losing money? on The Hobbit and Game of Thrones Top Most Pirated Lists of 2013 · · Score: 3, Informative

    Piracy may have added more revenue than was 'lost' by the download. You'll never see the real numbers though to know either way or the other.

  23. Re:Failure polls well?!? on Former Head of NSA Calls For Obama To Reject NSA Commission Recommendations · · Score: 1

    And that's why I don't have the balls to be President. Personally, I think the solution is keep the capability but somehow rigidly enforce a real, transparent review process. Demonizing Bush and Obama isn't helping here. We should be more mature than that. We should be fixing the problem.

  24. Re:Understandable, but... on Surge In Online Orders Overwhelms UPS Christmas Deliveries · · Score: 1

    wild guess here, but he's probably talking about the American People.

  25. Yeah.... on Ulbricht Admits Seized Bitcoins Are His and Wants Them Back · · Score: 5, Funny

    I'm pretty sure I would have kept my mouth shut. The worst thing you can do is make it easier for the feds. But who knows, I've never been arrested on those charges and had a shitton of bitcoins seized.
