  1. We live in corrupt times on FBI Agreed To Destroy Laptops of Clinton Aides With Immunity Deal, Sources Say (foxnews.com) · · Score: 0

    Why isn't there more outrage? The FBI is aiding and abetting criminals and destroying evidence that future prosecutors could use against them. All this in an attempt to elect a traitor, serial liar and crook to the presidency. History books will remember these as dark times, because supposedly good people stood by and did nothing.

  2. When you already have a foregone conclusion, it is easy to make statements like this. Climate models do not explain why Greenland was once green and crops flourished there. Nor do they explain how wine grapes were once grown in England. Nor do they explain the Maunder Minimum, a period of extreme cold, including "the year with no summer." The reason is that climate models are simplistic and not back-tested. They assume CO2 = temperature and ignore all other effects on temperature, most notably the sun, which is not a constant source of light and heat. Science has a bad name these days because of work like this, which is more akin to religion than science.

  3. A possible Hillary Endorsement? on Hillary Clinton Used BleachBit To Wipe Emails (neowin.net) · · Score: 0

    If BleachBit is willing to donate enough to the Clinton Foundation, maybe Hillary will become their spokesperson. Her testimonials are sure to be a big hit with other wrongdoers wanting to cover their tracks.

  4. Re:"Ghandi" quote updated on Every Month This Year Has Been the Hottest In Recorded History (vice.com) · · Score: 0

    Too many people remember the Twilight Zone episode when the earth began to melt, except Rod Serling didn't blame humankind for it. Mr. Sun just got to close.

  5. Maybe it is suffering from climate change and soon will be a goner just like earth.

  6. Climate change is responsible for everything on Bill Nye Explains That the Flooding In Louisiana Is the Result of Climate Change (qz.com) · · Score: 0

    What a science guy is Bill Nye...maybe it is hot air from people like him that is causing climate change. As the earth warms up, molecules are more active, so why not blame the recent earthquakes on climate change? After all, as in all religions, people must pay for their sins.

  7. Re:I dobut it was NSA on Russian Government Gets 'Hacked Back', Attacks Possibly Launched By The NSA (bbc.com) · · Score: 0

    Interesting that they did this after an alleged attack on the DNC. Shows you what they really care about.

  8. Comey is not honest on The FBI Recommends Not To Indict Hillary Clinton For Email Misconduct (theverge.com) · · Score: 0

    Comey lied to Congress when testifying about Apple phones, saying he was only interested in the San Bernardino phone, when he really wanted Apple to do his bidding and give the FBI a key to all Apple phones. So, why should anyone expect him to be honest about prosecuting Traitor Hillary? It's obvious the Clinton's have the Democratic party in their pocket and have gotten incredibly wealthy parlaying their government positions into cash "donations" to the Clinton Foundation slush fund.

  9. media coverup on DNC Hacker Releases Clinton Foundation Documents (washingtonexaminer.com) · · Score: 0

    The media will do what they can to elect a traitor, criminal, and incompetent leader whose name is Hillary (after Sir Edmund who became famous well after she was born.)

  10. robot welfare on Europe's Robots To Become 'Electronic Persons' Under Draft Plan (yahoo.com) · · Score: 0

    So when robots are idle and can't find work, will they be on a welfare plan for free electricity?

  11. Re:Have to give it to Apple..... on 'Headphone Jacks Are the New Floppy Drives' (daringfireball.net) · · Score: 0

    I'd give Apple the boot for manipulating its customers. Most of the world uses Android phones quite successfully. And....get this....you can replace the battery yourself.

  12. There are other web browsers and other search engines, so user beware!

  13. The government needs to recruit some of these hackers to both find our vulnerabilities and attack hostile websites like ISIS. The only question is what should their pay rate or GSA status be? Obviously some of these folks are a lot smarter than our current government security workers, so their pay grade should be higher.

  14. Re:I Love You on Citigroup Sues AT&T For Saying 'Thanks' To Customers (techdirt.com) · · Score: 0

    Why did Citi get a trademark in the first place on a common term in the English language? Somebody ought to get a trademark on the word "patent" so the patent office will have to change it's name. How about "gang of idiots"?

  15. They screwed up Diesels, so are electric cars next?

  16. This is great for trees and other plants. More CO2 to breathe and warmer temperatures to foster growth. Maybe vegetation will take over the world if we just stop eating it.

  17. Re:title seems to be misleading, at best. on Renewables Are Set To Overtake Gas and Coal By 2027 (computerworld.com) · · Score: 0

    Until you can make the wind blow all the time (in spite of all the hot ill winds coming from Washington, DC) and the sun shine all the time, it's just not gonna happen. Maybe Bloomberg has a fairy godmother on his staff.

  18. We're becoming a third world country on Oklahoma State Troopers Use New Device To Seize Bank Accounts During Traffic Stops (news9.com) · · Score: 0

    So much for the Constitution. The government is just another mob, except it has legalized all its criminal activity. Suspicion is not a valid reason to do this.

  19. Too bad our schools don't encourage this kind of thing instead of trying to make everybody feel good about themselves. Great work here from a smart inquisitive Canadian kid!

  20. We better use genetic engineering to survive on Five Solomon Islands Disappear Into The Pacific Ocean As A Result Of Climate Change (go.com) · · Score: 0

    Extrapolating this information to the future means we'd better get cracking on genetically engineering gills into our bodies, as very soon, no land will be left to stand on. Anyone want to mate with a fish, or should we just do this in the laboratory?

  21. Electric vehicles--still great for the golf course on Scientists: Electric Vehicles Produce As Many Toxins As Dirty Diesels (dailymail.co.uk) · · Score: 0

    Interesting. This, along with the fact that most electricity is generated using coal and other fossil fuels makes belief in these cars a new religion.

  22. Re:Thought he retired... on Bill Nye Slams Donald Trump, Republicans On Climate Change (cnn.com) · · Score: -1

    He can't prove he's right, either. All climate models predict CO2 based on limited inputs and none of them can replicate past climate events such as the Maunder Minimum. Climate science is more of a religion than actual science.

  23. Re:Thought he retired... on Bill Nye Slams Donald Trump, Republicans On Climate Change (cnn.com) · · Score: 0

    He can't prove he's right, either. All climate models predict carbon dioxide levels based on limited inputs. They do not predict temperature. You have to assume CO2 equals temperature and it doesn't. None of the models can replicate past climate events like the Maunder Minimum. The climate changes all the time and it has been warmer for awhile, but not as warm as it was when you could grow crops in Greenland hundreds of years ago. Climate science is not science but religion--and a way to obtain research dollars to feed the families of so-called climate scientists.

  24. Move to Mars on Warmest March In Global Recordkeeping (wunderground.com) · · Score: 0

    Let's all move to Mars. It's much cooler and there is less of an environment to destroy. If we send the right signals, maybe they'll send a spaceship down to get us.

  25. Re:Send the prof a shortened link on Go To Jail For Visiting a Web Site? Top Law Prof Talks Up the Idea (slate.com) · · Score: 0

    Why can't our politically correct government just shut this site down? Isn't that the kind of stuff the CIA is supposed to do?
