Funny that you trotted out race, can you explain where that applies? Right. It doesn't, but I'm sure you can pat yourself on the back for thinking you're witty.
So much like the other person who replied to me, you also missed the point. Tell me something, how much understanding do you think a politician is going to have about technology that you're specialized in, but they're not. Or are you going to say that they're as adept as you because of their age. Now you're suddenly realized where your reply is wrong, why my original point is right in the context of the original reply in question don't you.
Sorry if this guy in his mid-30's can figure this stuff out but you can't. My grandfather would have said it's "getting old, and forgetting that when you specialize, everyone else doesn't run along beside you."
That's great, but you're missing something aren't you? You're 'specialized' in an area of technology, they're specialized in an area of technology. These people aren't. See that point where you missed what happens when you're dealing with people who aren't adept, familiar, or even have the basic concept of something? You're welcome.
Yep. Generally the older you get the less in touch with society and technology you become. Look back at the news articles about cars when they first came out, telephones, radio, music and so on. It's an age problem for many with any new tech. Think about it, imagine in 10 years you could get wetware and plug yourself into technology. Now propose that to someone who's in their 60's or 70's. Now think about computers, encryption, and so on and remember that many of the folks in politics are between 40 and 75.
I didn't know that Sarah Palin was previously a Secretary of State, had access to 'eyes only' information or anything like that either. I'm not saying what Palin did was correct, but the trust level was already far lower than what Clinton had access to.
They're not toxic really to anything, not even zooplankton. The biggest problem comes from the stuff lower in the foodchain that can eat it and block up their digestive system, or collect in there causing the creature in question to starve to death.
One of the big problems with sewage plants is there is a capacity limit to them, and when they hit capacity they dump directly into rivers/oceans/etc. That most happens in places where waste water and sewage are still on one system aka most of the world and they get rain.
Paradox Entertainment is the publisher for the game. Colossal Order is the owner of the title, and the one who developed it. Colossal Order is also a private company, but the rest of your point stands.
Damn if that wasn't true. I'm glad I got the entire thing on sale, but it was a pathetically small game with very limited development area compared to skylines, which is well pretty damned awesome.
its little more than some standard CSS to adjust the UI however the hell you want.
Here's the problem with that line of thinking, it's not outside of my scope, your scope and some of/.'s scope to do that. The average person who sees the change, has no clue how to change it. It's similar to greasemonkey for a lot of people, it's simply outside of their scope to do things with it. We're not the main audience of FF, but those who are also don't like UI changes for the sake of UI changes. You'd figure Mozilla would figure that out after Microsoft learned that...not once, but twice.
I'm not a real fan of Chrome especially in terms of the tracking crap, chromium on the other hand I do like but it's never out of a non-stable release state. But I guess I can live with that. So I guess it's good bye Firefox, and off to hunt more browsers maybe check out palemoons stability now, since I had some serious problems with it a few years ago, check out other browsers like Opera maybe even IE.
Shit like the 'force ads' is the death knell for FF though. $20 says that there will be no ad checking, and it'll become a massive vector for malware to boot.
I didn't say that's what the consumer pays. I said that the FiT program directly increases the cost of electricity beyond the level you indicated. It's been covered here in Ontario several times by even the most left wing papers that FiT generally drives up the electricity price by 2-8c/kWh depending on the TOU charge as well. So far here in Canada, the only thing that are causing 'very bad problems' are the solar and wind farms.
Funny enough we don't really have 'carbon producing generators' here in Ontario, we do have one of the largest nuclear power plants in the world through.
Well that depends now won't it? Where I live, operating any type of taxi service requires a chauffeurs license and insurance to protect against liabilities. In the case of Uber they're operating an illegal taxi service, not a ride share service. Ride share here, falls under specific definitions.
Of course, even with automated cars you're still going to have to have insurance, which should be really interesting.
In Ontario there's this thing called "FiT" or Feed-in-Tariff. The rates are currently between 20c/kWh and 78c/kWh depending on what is generating it. That's the price they're paid outside of market rates for generation, meaning if the market rate for power is 7.1c/kWh they're getting paid between the above listed to generate.
So no, it's not 0.3-0.6c/kWh here, it's far, far, far higher.
That's interesting, here in Ontario they're slapping the bird cutters up everywhere they can. When people complain the government threatens people, overrides community areas, and generally tells people to go fuck themselves. It's gotten bad enough that people are taking the provincial government to court over it.
And this in turn has caused our electricity rates to jump to ~16.1c/kWh in the last 5 years. Living in Ontario now guarantees you the highest residential and business prices for electricity. We of course have to thank the centre of the universe(Toronto) for re-electing the government in question, that is under destruction of data, electioneering, bribery and a couple of other things back to power again.
Okay, but only when they stop drawing men with packages so large they look like they're wearing a codpiece and muscle structure that makes them look like they're popping steroids.
Well back in the depression taxi cab drivers were highly coveted positions. Things really have come full circle. I also like the moderation of my previous comment, it appears the obama shills don't like that.
And this does not apply to all americans: Just the ignorant ones which unfortunately make up the voting majority as well as the main media organisations...
Yeah well, it's pretty funny that in the US the majority of the main media organizations lean left. Some days I can't tell the difference between NBC and the CBC.
So in what part of society where the person is so broken that they go out and cause oh murder, mass murder, and so on? Seems to me that it isn't a 'society problem' but rather an individual problem relating to either psychopathy or indoctrination.
What sites does Slashdot send people to that aren't there to make money? I don't get this witchhunt.
Some people have this belief that in order to be ethical, you don't shill. That there are no financial ties, that the people involved have disclosure if there are any related issues. I realize that this is a difficult subject for some people to understand, but if you want to know why, you only need to look at the mess ABC news is in.
This is an extension of the clickbait culture that exists with sites like gawker, kotaku, polygon, vox and so on.

Don't you know? According to team obama, unemployment is fine, wages are a state issue, and the deficit is perfectly okay.
Sure but some of us live in parts of the world where notice is required. It's nice, you americans should give it a try.
Protip: I live in Canada, and know that the US has left-leaning parties. The only person that's a part of the ignorant majority appears to be you.
No you were just unclear to people who don't know what it is.
Okay, and that has what to do with the original question. You seem to have gone off in left field.
You must be new here. /. has been like this for nearly 8-9 years.

The death penalty is not an effective deterrent against murder.
You're mostly right, except of course it removes those who would commit the same crime again.
