Renewables are generally not constant energy. They have huge peaks and dips. Take solar for example. It peaks at a certain point of the day and dips heavily as the day progresses. So when you see headlines like "140% renewable energy" they are not compensating for the dips but merely taking the peak as if it was a constant. That 40% is needed in non-peak hours. And it is often not enough to 100% coverage of a complete day of energy needs.
It is obvious these articles usual coincide with some extreme weather event. But in truth weather across the US has been mostly tame the last few years. There is less snow fall for example:
Weather isn't an indicator of global warming. When people use it it always blows up in their faces and makes people question its existance. Stop doing that! The caps could melt, we could be ten feet under water, but it may be a sunny day.
My company gave it serious thought. But browsing through it is like poison to the soul as you find too much fighting over social justice issues instead of focus on the technology. So we went with a significantly less polarizing language and community.
Washington Post monitors Facebook Trending for three weeks and find it is working better than the Washington Post. Journalist scramble to discredit system out of fear of being replaced.
I did a little digging. Apparently the developer was getting comments consisting of death threats. They even show some of their website. Apparently they reported these to Valve but nothing came of it. So this story has more to it than what the one-sided summary Slashdot is giving people.
This is your typical "the peasants hate me" so they believe throwing money to support defeating public enemy X will gain them some love. So obvious it is painful to watch.
Internet, cellphones, vaccines, etc. People can either accept progress or get left behind. Things like DNA programming are here now thanks to things like CRISPR. Expect custom babies in your lifetime. I look forward to improvements in my own programming for that matter as I have inherited some baggage and in need of some tweaking.
Trying to solve everything with Javascript was a recipe of failure. The work to make a unified byte code (WebAssembly) is great but should have happened a few years ago. People wanted more robust, fast, and dynamic content which these "gated" apps filled the void of.
I wonder what they are worried Wikileaks will reveal next about Hillary? Media is putting up its deflector shields to max just in case. Anything released by Wikileaks will result in reporters trying to steer every conversation to talking about this conspiracy they are fabricating.
I didn't expect much when the whole news broke over the liberal slant by Facebook trending. But instead they took a route no one had done before: go neutral by removing the always present human bias. Obviously the biased media was abuzz as the bots first baby steps were stumbles (I won't even touch the Atlantic pushing their dream that Megan Kelly would sue them for libel). But they are scared. This bot is a danger to them. Their golden podiums from up high are in danger.
My company is actually expanding operations with two British companies we do business with. Much of this is possible by the weakened pound and knowing that their EU membership tax (which was shockingly large we found out) will be lifted.

I'm sure you would sing a different tune if the judge in the Trump University scandal finds him guilty but decides there is no need to punish him. It is a travesty to Americans, not just the anti-Hillary camp, when we have people "above the law".
If I wanted politics I would go to the thousands of other sites that serve it up. If Slashdot becomes another Digg or Reddit I'll look elsewhere for tech news.
Imagine an external drive connected to the laptop/PC via USB (Thunderbolt, etc). Minimum double bay set at RAID-1. Owner can read and write to the drive. Attempts to delete or modify files or folders on the drive will fail though. A physical, hardware lock needs to be "turned" to enable that capability.
This would prevent ransomware (of that drive's data anyways). It would also help prevent accidental deletes of files.
Does such a unicorn exist? I'm not looking for some half-baked alternative.
"90% of the posters are about those American backed Nazi's out to destroy the freedom fighters who had enough of American backed oppression."
What a bunch of bulls*. 90% is people trying to convince people about Russian equipment and/or soldiers in Ukraine. What these people fail to notice is 100% of the people they are telling that to go "yeah I know". I don't think this is the desired reaction because they keep doing it over and over. Maybe those posting these comments and threads in forums and social media are secretly Russians trying to make us just ignore these types of news announcements? I need more tin for my hat before following that rabbit.
Slashdot Mirror
So many sites playing audio and video ads nowadays. And they work more diligently than the best ad blockers at getting in your face.

"their technology gets a lower market share"
What market share? There is no money in it.
" This is especially true when it comes to new developers."
But they aren't buying anything either. There is no valid facts in your argument.
When this is all over we will come get you.

Obviously Clinton hopes people don't look at a world map. If only her followers had half a brain...
No coincidence this is posted exactly the same time the New York Times puts up an article about Hillary's "Outrage Machine":

LG still comes with features many phone makers are no longer supporting or have plans on removing:
1. Replaceable battery
2. Replaceable and upgradable memory
3. IR (blaster) port
4. Headset port

Hillary claimed there were no classified emails on that personal server. Are you saying she lied?

Whoever killed 38,000 websites to get rid of the one the DMCA targeted is an idiot.

I'm so sorry for you.
