  5. Re:Are you seriously too lazy to click the link? on Extreme CO2 Levels Could Trigger Clouds 'Tipping Point' and 8C of Global Warming (carbonbrief.org) · · Score: 1

    I was thinking of those folks that disagreed being listed would be important also.

    An amazing statement; for a shop keeper. But then Huawei's business partner makes Putin look like a little lost school girl.

  11. I would have thought a graphic novel of where Jesus uses Linux to Hack the servers in Rome a more entertaining read.

  12. We are well past the tolerance of "Beg for Forgiveness is cheaper than Ask for Permission" There is no doubt that FaceBook is directly involved in the current occupant in the Oval Office. Their intent was not Treason, but their socialpath business model has damaged us all.

  13. Re:Published 3:15 PM ET Wed, 11 April 2018 on Goldman Sachs Asks: 'Is Curing Patients a Sustainable Business Model?' (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    One does have to ask, "are these patients Linux users?" If not, then it's a clear case of Darwinian Socialism. Now if the writers of this Goldman Sachs article should find themselves on their death couch at work, then I think their question will be aptly answered. But lets face it, is the current business model of Health Care sustainable? Automation is of course, everywhere. Maybe it's time to evaluate a scenario where Health Care is dispensed at a Kiosk?

    A pilot should always read their respective NOTAMS, because after the Jack Stone event there is nothing better to do for FBI folks.

  21. Re:Super Cheater on Can DeepMind's AI Really Beat Human Starcraft II Champions? (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    I think the use of "Fair" ignores various game factors; but the term, "Level Playing Field" is more accurate.

  22. Re: Better than 90% on Online Videos Shame Two Sleeping Tesla Drivers (jalopnik.com) · · Score: 1

    I wish iRobot would build a Robot that could also vacuum stairs; I guess I will have to do it myself.

  25. Plastic is recyclable, salvaging it makes sense. But what I find it hard to ignore is that at the bottom of the Marianas Trench a used Pampers rolling along.
