  1. Too many people on Overtime Complaints? China's JD.com Boss Criticizes 'Slackers' (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    It sounds like he's really saying that China has more people than they know what to do with, so who cares if he burns through them?

  2. Re:I hope they just let him go on Wikileaks Co-founder Julian Assange Arrested in London (theguardian.com) · · Score: 3, Informative

    If I were a judge and someone tried to convince me that a criminal was already incarcerated because he chose to hide, I'd have the guy committed due to extreme stupidity.

  3. Re:Absolultely shocking... on Congress is About To Ban the Government From Offering Free Online Tax Filing (propublica.org) · · Score: 1

    I believe that the correct solution is fire at.

  4. Re:This actually ties in... on Finland's Basic Income Experiment Shows Recipients Are Happier and More Secure (yahoo.com) · · Score: 1

    Given that UBI is always subject to the whims of the authorities, it's probably better to have that reminder than not.

  5. Did the participants know the study could end at any time? How was this knowledge controlled for?

  6. UBI is like vaccination -- as long as everyone who can work is working, it's OK. As soon as productivity starts to drop, you have problems. We see the exact same thing with vaccination. There are measles outbreaks around the world now because enough people felt that they didn't have to vaccinate if everyone else is doing it.

  7. If you know the money is part of a study and that it can and will go away some day, your incentive to keep working is different.

  8. Re:Prove that youtube videos cause violence? on Australia Passes Law To Punish Social Media Companies For Violent Posts (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    A no-true-Christian argument? Really?

  9. What is the connection with illegal material? Is it illegal to video an illegal act being performed?

  10. It's trivial to not use a real name on Facebook, and I assume it's true elsewhere.

  11. You can't prevent morons from handing over their passwords. However, there's nothing stopping us from shoving hot pokers up the asses of those who ask in the first place.

    Zuck should have his dick ripped off and stuffed down Priscilla's throat. Probably have to smash their daughter's head in to make sure the rot can't spread another generation.

  12. Re:Eliminated? on Measles Cases Top Last Year's Total · · Score: 1

    Your reading comprehension is non-existent, so there's no hope for a resurgence. Elimination is defined by region, not world-wide. The cases in the US spread from people who came from outside the US.

  13. Re: Something missing in the head on Measles Cases Top Last Year's Total · · Score: 2

    Waiting for people to be dying is both bad policy and utterly immoral.

    Water is toxic. Please stop ingesting it.

  15. Re:Something missing in the head on Measles Cases Top Last Year's Total · · Score: 1

    Far less than the damage done by open-heart surgeries.

  16. Re:Something missing in the head on Measles Cases Top Last Year's Total · · Score: 1

    Yeah, who the fuck cares about preventing a pandemic? Let's just wait for people to start dropping like flies, and then we'll consider action!

  17. Re:Something missing in the head on Measles Cases Top Last Year's Total · · Score: 1

    If you threaten my well-being or the well-being of my family, I should be free to shoot you on sight. If not vaccinating only affected the unvaccinated, no one would care.

  18. Re:I thought google employees were smarter. on Google Employees Are Lining Up To Trash Google's AI Ethics Council (technologyreview.com) · · Score: 1

    Smart people can be raging bigots. There's no conflict there.

  19. Re:Jif... on What's The Correct Way to Pronounce 'GIF'? (thenewstack.io) · · Score: 1

    It really doesn't matter what some anonymous shit says on the Interwebs. As long as someone strangles you with a coat hanger, we'll all be happier people.

  20. If the music execs were tortured over the course of a month or so, with their corpses left lying in public spaces, they would stop this utter shit. Why the fuck should any ISP be in charge of policing their users? If you know who the infringer is, sue them or have them arrested. Leave the ISP out of the punishment phase.

  21. The guy started a new account and immediately followed two anti-vaxx posters. What the fuck did he expect would happen?

  22. Re:IBM is a year late to the blockchain hype party on IBM Signs 6 Banks To Issue Stablecoins and Use Stellar's XLM Cryptocurrency (coindesk.com) · · Score: 1

    XLM isn't a cryptocurrency. It is issued by the network via inflation. Its purpose is to provide a basis for securing a stake in the network, and is not meant to be traded for value. Instead, the Stellar network (of which XLM is the base currency) allows defining and trading of assets. These assets can represent anything the issuer desires, and it is up to individual account holders to trust an asset.

  23. Re:Threat to the Disability Fraud Industry on Are Online Activists Silencing Researchers of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome? (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    You are not a particularly logical person, are you? The problem isn't that there is no underlying physiological cause for CFS. The problem is that, until we know what it is, it's easy for anyone to claim they are suffering from it, and it is difficult to refute the claim. Thus, as long as the underlying causes are not understood, it's easy to make fraudulent claims. Thus, there is incentive to shut down research.

  24. Re:No, they aren't. on Are Online Activists Silencing Researchers of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome? (reuters.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Kind of moronic to shout down anyone researching the disease, then, isn't it?

    Golan Telecom. 29nis/mo gives me unlimited everything, except data, which is capped at 6GB. Free international calling, too.
