  1. Re:US is a global joke on US To Ban Laptops in All Cabins of Flights From Europe (thedailybeast.com) · · Score: 1

    Why should anyone care who won the American Revolution? Obviously the colonies did. But as that can't be changed, why care? It's like caring about who won the World Series in 1952.

  2. Re:not touching it with a 10ft pole on 'Silicon Valley Is Missing Unicorns Because It Doesn't Understand Poor People' (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Literally impossible? You're not all that good at data mining, then, are you?

  3. Re:After the Biotech scare... on 'Silicon Valley Is Missing Unicorns Because It Doesn't Understand Poor People' (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    If there's one thing we can rely on in the health care industry (and the US in general) it is greed.

    You added a lot of extra words: If there's one thing we can rely on, it is greed.

    Those telescopes will also find the film set for the faked moon landing. It was carried up to the dark side of the moon by Armstrong so no one would know the moon landing was faked.

    That may be true, but then what happened to your ability?

  6. Do us a favor; don't wait.

  7. Re:Catholics also believe in evolution on The Vatican Invites World's Leading Scientists To Discuss Cosmology (independent.co.uk) · · Score: 2

    Evolution does not rate various species. It says nothing about whether man is damned or uplifted.

  8. Re:Different tools for different jobs on The Vatican Invites World's Leading Scientists To Discuss Cosmology (independent.co.uk) · · Score: 2

    You are logically inconsistent. If God made the Universe, and if time did not exist at the moment of creation, then God doesn't need time in which to create. That's proven by the existence of the Universe. If either supposition is incorrect, then the original question is irrelevant. You are then either saying God did not create the Universe, so the question about time is moot, or you're saying that time isn't needed, so it doesn't matter whether time existed prior to the point of creation.

  9. Re:start with lowering the age of Medicare eligibi on IT Worker Who Trained H-1B-Visa-Holding Replacement Aims For Congress (computerworld.com) · · Score: 1

    Raise the age! Keep people working longer. It's absolutely idiotic that there is anyone who thinks retirement age should remain the same while life expectancy and medical care for the elderly continue to improve.

  10. What the fuck does cheaper labor elsewhere have to do with H1-B visas? You are an ignorant fuck, and you deserve a pain-filled existence.

  11. It would be a good idea for you to impale yourself on a rusty spike. You'd feel better. We'd feel better. It's a win/win.

  12. Re:2 years? on IT Worker Who Trained H-1B-Visa-Holding Replacement Aims For Congress (computerworld.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The work ethic of the employee is beside the point. Hiring an H1-B when there are US citizens who are willing to take the job is illegal. Training your H1-B replacement is a situation where, by definition, there is an American who will work the job.

  13. Re: 2 years? on IT Worker Who Trained H-1B-Visa-Holding Replacement Aims For Congress (computerworld.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Thank you for displaying your ignorance of reality. In IT, your age is held against you. Age is hardly ever the only factor in determining who to make an offer to, so other attributes may override any particular hiring decision. However, all things being equal, experience and age are a minus in IT, not a plus.

  14. Hyperbole on FCC Should Prove DDoS Attacks Stopped Net Neutrality Comments (networkworld.com) · · Score: -1, Troll

    Anything less is a subversion of our democracy.

    No, it's not. Democracy doesn't give a shit about comment forms on a website.

  15. Re:Where is the FTC??? on Comcast and Charter Agree Not To Compete Against Each Other In Wireless (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Judging from what I've seen in the nearly 4 decades I've been around, you and your neighbor don't have monopolies on ill-kempt property.

  16. Re:Where is the FTC??? on Comcast and Charter Agree Not To Compete Against Each Other In Wireless (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Monopolies are not anti-free market. They are the natural result of a free market. "Free" in this context means free of regulation and oversight. In such an environment, monopolies are practically inevitable.

  17. Re:Humor is good at dispelling fear on FCC Says It Was Victim of Cyberattack After John Oliver Show (thehill.com) · · Score: 1

    You must be an idiot of the highest caliber, which explains why you can't relate to Oliver.

    Or SNL.

  19. Re:Trump Never Laughs on FCC Says It Was Victim of Cyberattack After John Oliver Show (thehill.com) · · Score: 2

    Good comedians are self-deprecating, at least on-stage. Trump is so thin-skinned, it's rather amazing it's not completely transparent.

  20. Re: Maybe they WERE attacked. on FCC Says It Was Victim of Cyberattack After John Oliver Show (thehill.com) · · Score: 1

    Who says they were forced? Trump and his henchmen are authoritarians. They aren't going to extend the deadline just because the server caught fire and burned down half the state.

  21. Fuck John Oliver.

    You only wish you could.

  22. The GP probably likes serial killers, so that's not going to sway him. Tell him that Leftists also breathe oxygen. Now we're getting somewhere.

  23. Re:Comedians are running the country now? on John Oliver Gets Fired Up Over Net Neutrality, Causes FCC's Site To Temporarily Crash (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    You're also a top-poster, which demonstrates that you're also independent of the ability to think. You are completely illogical. You are stupid and ignorant, and indeed too stupid and ignorant to realize that you are.

  24. Which party was it that elected an actor and reality show star as president, and another actor as governor?

    Just because someone uses humor as a vehicle does not mean they are Bozo the Clown.

  25. Forcing outcomes is authoritarian. As long as Apple and Google played by society's rules in establishing their positions, they've done nothing wrong. It's no more fair to force Google to give prominence to Spotify than it is for Google to use their prominence to promote their own services.
