  1. 54 times per year? on Americans Are Having Less Sex Than 20 Years Ago, Study Finds (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Holy crud... I'd settle for 54 in a lifetime.

  2. More geeks, less sex on Americans Are Having Less Sex Than 20 Years Ago, Study Finds (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    That's because there are more geeks now than 20 years ago. Duh. And geeks don't get to have sex. It's like some kind of unwritten law. Or maybe it is written, I haven't bothered to google that.

  3. .... And if the CIA has to run a false flag operation that blows up your children, then at least know that they died to weaken your enemy that wants to blow up your children... that are already blown up.

    1) Owning a gun makes you safer
    2) A big SUV is safer than a smaller car
    3) Donald Trump would make a good president
    4) The poor people are destroying this country
    5) Religion is a good thing
    6) You can trust corporations to police themselves

    Bah... Milo Yiannopouls should go back to whatever country he came from!

  11. Yuge and bigly! on The Doomsday Clock Is Reset: Closest To Midnight Since The 1950s (npr.org) · · Score: 1

    Great! I'm looking forward to Nuclear War. It'll help with population control. Just think of all the jobs for Americans if we nuke Mexico for NOT paying for the wall.

    And if we nuke the middle east, that'll mean our oil is more valuable.

    Now if only we can nuke America's welfare population without affecting the rich, who do all the work in this country.

  12. Known about this a long time.... on New Research Suggests the Appendix Has a Purpose After All (qz.com) · · Score: 1

    At least 20 years I think... They could have saved a lot of money and just asked me instead of performing this crazy-ass study of something most doctors have known for decades. And I'm not even a doctor.

  13. Oh, he will... on Donald Trump To Tech Leaders: 'No Formal Chain Of Command' Here (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    He will definitely surprise America and the World.
    Just not in the way you think.

    My only consolation about this mess is that the people he will hurt most will be the ignorant midwestern poor who voted for him.

    I personally am already comfortable enough to not care what he does, short of nuclear war. And even then, I have done some prepping. But the rest of you may be in for a shock.

  14. Re:Welcome to Trump's America Inc. on Comcast Raises Controversial 'Broadcast TV' and 'Sports' Fees $48 Per Year (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 2

    Actually, NO, it is not free to cut the cord. I tried to cancel my service with verizon which I've had for at least 7 years and they want to charge me $70 to cancel, claiming I have a "contract", which they are in violation of for raising my rates from the $99 per month to $146 per month with no service upgrades whatsoever.

  15. Verizon recently introduced a $2.80 (plus taxes) fee for my FIOS router, which they claim is old -- and to "support it" they need this monthly fee.

    Never mind that this is their equipment to start with. Now, my choice is to pay the fee every month or buy a "new" ($70) router, with no guarantee that they won't pull this exact same stunt next year.

    Jesus rode dinosaurs.
    Noah could fit 2 of every animal in a 20,000 square foot space.

    .... and yet you'd probably be the first to complain if we elected someone who wanted to tax the rich bastards at a 50% tax rate, which would benefit everyone.

    That money could be used to feed the hungry, rebuild roads and bridges, pay for basic research that corporations no longer do, and help us pay off the crushing debt we are already under.

  20. This is a scam??? on The Mac App Store Is Full of Scams (howtogeek.com) · · Score: 0

    60 million people voted for Donald Trump, and you're complaining about a few dumb folks getting scammed by the Mac OS store?

    Dude, the whole freaking country of 320 million people just got scammed by a con man.

    Why doesn't this affect all types of computers? Why doesn't it affect Android, Mac OS, Windows, and Linux? Why *just* IOS? That doesn't make sense, there must be something unique about IOS where it doesn't handle video as well as other OS's....

  23. less regulation == GOOD! on No Evidence of Aloe Vera Found in the Aloe Vera at Wal-Mart, CVS (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    And remember that our new president wants less regulation on business, so expect more of this bait and switch in the future.

    Hell, you will be lucky if your food contains food. Remember how the chinese were selling cardboard as food? That's us in the future, being "competitive" -- we must close the cardboard as food gap.

    I for one, welcome our fake aloe bearing overlords.

  24. So why did the FBI have to crack the iPhone? on iPhones Secretly Send Call History To Apple, Security Firm Says (theintercept.com) · · Score: 1

    Remember when the FBI was laying heavily on Apple to crack open the iPhone of that Terrorist dude that shot up the work-party in California? Apple refused, and this was a story for weeks in the news. John McAfee claimed his guys could crack it in 14 hours or something?

    Anyway, if Apple retains all this data, why was cracking the iPhone such a big deal? Is half the news (or maybe more) all made-up bullshit just to entertain me?

    Maybe Trump isn't really president and the news is just telling me that to keep me watching. I can't trust anything anymore. Never mind being in the Matrix, it's freaking reality that doesn't seem real.
