  1. Re: Transparancy on Yahoo Scanning Order Unlikely To Be Made Public: Reuters (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    Jill Stein is America's last hope. She will put an end to this.

  2. The real solution on That Digital Music Service You Love Is a Terrible Business (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    Stop buying music from companies that charge rediculous licensing fees. Taylor Swift has no more talent than the talented girl next door. Go fund indie music. It's more free, you're supporting the little guy/gal, and the talent is just as good even if the production quality isn't.

  3. Re: Strong enough for a man, made for a woman on Men Are Sabotaging The Online Reviews Of TV Shows Aimed At Women (fivethirtyeight.com) · · Score: 1

    Daredevil, Top Shot, American Ninja Warrior, Monster Garage, ESPN 30 for 30 series.

  4. Re: Stupid design on Some Reversible USB-C Cables/Adapters Could Cause Irreversible Damage · · Score: 1

    So reversed wires cause irreversible damage?

  5. Google and Microsoft will always have their own clouds. Those are two real competitors.

  6. Re: That's nothing on Autonomous Cars Aren't As Smart as They're Cracked Up To Be (computerworld.com) · · Score: 1

    The AI wouldn't drive into a tree in the first place. If you jump front of it, it may run you over, but that's your fault. We can't expect AI to make ridiculous calculations on who to kill. The AI's priority is it's occupants. People outside of the vehicle are responsible for themselves. It's exactly the same as when a human drives. When you and your kid jump in front of a car and die, your surviving family doesn't get to sue the driver for not choosing suicide instead.

  7. Re: That's OK, I only care about bar crawls on Autonomous Cars Aren't As Smart as They're Cracked Up To Be (computerworld.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Cheaper? An AI doesn't need a salary, or a medallion, and it's insurance will be cheaper. If taxis were cheap, most of us wouldn't have cars.

  8. Re: Still got mine. on When Slide Rules Were Like Cellphones (hackaday.com) · · Score: 2

    Year 12? And here I am thinking I'm old coming from the high school class of 2001...

  9. Re: How about on Pentagon Picks Northrop Grumman For Next Gen Bomber (theatlantic.com) · · Score: 2

    BS. Education transforms lives and enables the poor to become producers within society. In fact, the reason for most poverty is the lack of education I. The first place. Furthermore, there should be no starvation or death by curable disease in the richest country on earth. Certain things should be provided to all when are basking in abundance.

  10. Re: We've been to Mars already on The Case For Going To Phobos Before Going To Mars · · Score: 1

    How will we send people anywhere useful if we can't even get them to Mars? Furthermore, as good as probes are, they still can't match the situational awareness of being there physically.

  11. Re: hardly something to celebrate on Thanks To Valve, More Than 1,500 Games Are Now On Linux · · Score: 1

    Except the publishers can distribute their games outside of Steam, and now that they have a Linux port they're more likely to keep supporting it.

  12. Re: Vacuum? on Hyperloop Getting Closer To Reality, Groundbreaking Set For 2016 · · Score: 1

    It's only a partial vacuum and the surrounding areas is not a vacuum. They can just equalize the pressure locally.

  13. Re: Good and Bad on Appeals Court Rejects ISP Stay of Neutrality Rules · · Score: 4, Informative

    Most of those pages are comments and supporting information, not regulations.

  14. Re: Controversial because? on Bill Gates Still Trying To Buy Some Common Core Testing Love · · Score: 1

    Birth control? You mean federally mandated sterilization? What a brilliant, new idea, that will go over wonderfully...

  15. Re:Just another level of hacking on Preventing Cheating At Hackathons · · Score: 1

    Why bribe the judges when you can just blackmail their families?

  16. Re: I never understood the principle. on Syria: a Defining Moment For Chemical Weapons? · · Score: 1

    There is no such thing as a micro nuke. The smallest nukes still have a yield measured in kilotons. The fall out from the blast is not discriminating it will children and soldiers the same. The is no precision with nukes.

  19. Re:PROXY? on The Amish Are Getting Fracked · · Score: 1

    Is that billions with a "B?" Umm, ok for 10% I'll be whatever kind of liaison they need. Who do I have to call? I can live in a barn until it's over I don't mind at all! :-D

  20. Re:lawsuit by proxy? on The Amish Are Getting Fracked · · Score: 2

    What they need are some non-Amish cousins. Keep your friends close, but keep the heathens closer because one day you might need them to go to court for you to file lawsuits...

  21. Re:re Online Dating is Out! on Marriages Spawned From Online Dating As Satisfying As From Traditional Dating · · Score: 1

    People have unhappy marriages because they stop doing the things for their spouse that they used to do when the relationship was new. They've gotten complacent, stopped doing the extra effort, and then they are surprised to find out that the love feelings just isn't as strong anymore.

    I came to that understanding from reading this: http://www.5lovelanguages.com/

    There is a lot of good stuff in there and I think if more people followed advice like that, fewer relationships would go south. Of course, you have to be willing and nothing will help you if you are selfish. Some people simply are too selfish for a long term relationship to work.

    Unless you are part of the ruling class. Then you can have who ever you want, even if they don't want you. :-)

  23. Re:But not to give them a chance to correct it fir on Google Security Expert Finds, Publicly Discloses Windows Kernel Bug · · Score: 1

    I think I should start a website where I publish Windows exploits along with thorough step by step details on how they can be used to compromise a system.

    I won't sell exploits, or kits, or use the word "tutorial," but I will collect ad revenue and giddy little chuckles in my Linux loving soul ;-)

    Now to find a domain name for this 8-D

  24. Re:India ? on Hospital Resorts To Cameras To Ensure Employees Wash Hands · · Score: 1

    Better solution. Robot surgeons. We already have them, make them better and cheaper. That will fix more issues than just unwashed hands.

  25. Trying to do good is inadequate. Matthew 22:36-40 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” 37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[a] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b] 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Love is far more complex than simply trying to be good, and loving everyone is one of the most important things any of us can do. The purpose of the Bible is not to tell you how to think, but rather to direct your thoughts to the truth you already know in your heart. You already know how to love because God has put that knowledge into all of our hearts. However, loving others is often times the hardest thing in the world to do. That is why we have things like the Bible to help us along.
