  1. Re:magnetic links ? on New P2P Torrent Site 'Play' Has No Single Point of Failure (thestack.com) · · Score: 3, Informative

    I imagine they are talking about magnet links.

  2. But news agency are finally starting to catch up on the "twitter craze". Think of the Mainstream Media!

  3. Interesting Caucus on Perfect Coin-Toss Record Broke 6 Clinton-Sanders Deadlocks In Iowa (marketwatch.com) · · Score: 1

    First Microsoft, a major Rubio donor volunteers to count votes for "free", then Rubio gains a near 10% surge in popularity. And now Hillary wins 6 out of 6 coin flips....
    These elections are gonna be fun to watch...

  4. Re:I don't see a squid on Giant Squid Filmed At Japanese Marina (wsj.com) · · Score: 1

    I watch a lot of Japanese shows and movies and I think this is one major cultural difference between "us and them". They aren't that bothered with text.
    Sometimes half the screen is covered with blurbs of text here and there, their commercials nearly transcribe everything said in a text format right over the image. And no one seems bothered by it.
    Try doing that in a western show with our "TL;DR" mentality.

  5. Re:People are speculating it's these shit stains on Steam Bug Shows You Other Users' Account Details (kotaku.com) · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Ironically, kotaku is getting tame with their SJW-pandering with each passing day.
    Probably because they realized that alienating generally tech-savvy people who know what adblock is, to attract an audience that doesn't even play video games isn't a sound business plan.

  6. Re:stupid stupid on Mars Colonies and Class Warfare (examiner.com) · · Score: 1

    I think I figured it out, maybe the plan was to get everyone else to leave for Mars and leave Earth only to the richest.

  7. Re:Why Would They Do That? on Anonymous Goes After Donald Trump · · Score: 1

    If he wins then he is exactly what Americans see as a good leader. I say let grown-ups make their choices. That's what the 'murrican freedom is all about, no?

  8. Here is a great joke! on Before Barbie's Brainy Makeover, Mattel Execs Met With White House, Google · · Score: 1

    philanthropists (Rockefeller,...)
    Hahahaha!

  9. Did you watch that UN speech when Agenda 2030 was announced and the whole crowd started applauding? Reminded me of Palpatine's Empire's birth. That dystopian future nearly every apocalyptic movie talked about might not be so imaginary, nor so far away...

  10. Re:Nazis didn't like them either on Xiaomi Investigated For Using Superlatives In Advertising, Now Illegal In China · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The Nazis did a lot of things wrong, but they also did many things right. Their wrongs shouldn't keep us from learning from their rights.

  11. Re:Or... let there be light! on British Movie Theater Staff To Wear Night-Vision Goggles To Combat Movie Piracy · · Score: 1

    And that's another reason why you shouldn't go to theaters anymore. People laughing at a funny movie? That's cool. But now you have to put up with the thought police who didn't like the way you hold your popcorn and now want to question you. Probably interrupting a key moment in the movie for you and anyone else around you.

  12. Re:What the hell? on Girls-Only Computer Camps Formed At Behest of Top Google, Facebook Execs · · Score: 1

    Why are you surprised. She's a CEO THANKS to that mentality.

  13. Re:Don't take yours in. on Volkswagen Ordered To Recall 500K Vehicles Over Its Own Malicious Programming · · Score: 1

    And there was a time when Volkswagen was the "Vehicle of the people"...

  14. Re:I told you so on Nine of World's Biggest Banks Create Blockchain Partnership · · Score: 1

    >track other kinds of transactions
    Track, but also hide...

  15. Re:We'll this sucks on White House Green-lights Tech Apprenticeship Program · · Score: 2

    I dream of a day when companies will look at their employees like members of a family, and not a set of expandable parts.

  16. Re:Bullshit on WWII Bomb Shelter Becomes Hi-Tech Salad Farm · · Score: 1

    This isn't an open field, though. There are entry points to the "farm" and if they control what goes in and comes out, and if they keep an eye open for any proliferation of pests and take them out as soon as they show up, it's feasible.
    Like the other guy up there, though, am more interested in the "nutrient" they are using. Unless they are changing the soil regularly or rotating crops, they must be adding something to the soil, and whatever it is, I doubt it will be very "organic".

  17. Re:Africa, corruption on The Nations That Will Be Hardest Hit By Water Shortages By 2040 · · Score: 1

    Hey, still beats growing your chicken in the US, sending it all the way to China for "Processing", then getting whatever it is that you will be eating back.

  18. The universe obviously needs more immigrant stars to produce energy for its retirement. Think of the future!

  19. Re:the partial list, for the unititiated. on Reddit Updates Content Policy, Bans More Subreddits · · Score: 1
  20. Re:Would I have to eat extra? on Your Body, the Battery: Powering Gadgets From Human "Biofuel" · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This is an interesting question. The body generates that energy for a reason, to perform maintenance, to power up its system, and to store the excess as reserves in case of an emergency, right? So if we actually find a way of tapping into that excess, we could theoretically eat to our heart's content without a single worry.

  21. Re:For an alternative on Reddit CEO: Site Is 'Not a Bastion of Free Speech,' Change Coming · · Score: 1

    Well, you know the new adage: "Your freedom ends where my feelings begin".
    We have to thank our liberal friends for that.

  22. My question is on Interviews: Ask Brianna Wu a Question · · Score: -1

    How will you choose which questions to answer? Will you answer them all? Will you pick the ones who won't embarrass you and ignore the rest? Will you randomly pick questions? Will you ignore this one?

  23. Re:Allow me to comment on the subject... on Microsoft Research Paper Considers Serving Web-ads From Localhost · · Score: 2

    Color me rainbows, I just learned what the word Entourage really means.
    Now that was embarassing, but thanks for the info.

  24. Re:Allow me to comment on the subject... on Microsoft Research Paper Considers Serving Web-ads From Localhost · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    I just want more video game developpers to embrace Linux so that I can fully move away from M$.
    I keep having to boot my Microshit partition to play the games I like and, ironically, am the only person in my entourage (other than my parents of course) who keeps using windows. I installed Linux on all my friends' laptops and they love it, though I think the whole being-geek-is-cool vibe is, in part, responsible for that.

  25. Re:Interesting person on A Technical Look Inside TempleOS · · Score: 4, Funny

    This is the internet, where not calling people out with racial slurs is a crime on its own.
