Katz's mindless ramblings were at least occasionally interesting. The editors had the good sense to list Katz as an editor himself so that he could be filtered away.
Curse myself for not noticing the submitter before clicking the link. Curse/. and especially soul kill for making it necessary for me to read who the submitter is.
I'm quite certain the Native Americans would love to have their country back and see all the descendants of those assholes who slaughtered their people and took their land deported. I wouldn't hold my breath on that readmission line moving too fast, though.
Problem with that is: We Europeans don't want all those Americans coming over here.
For those of you who didn't click the article link, do so now. At the beginning there's a chart that shows a comparison of some of the most popular tablets in regards to there battery life when web browsing over WIFI. When you look at the Surface 2(not the pro), it's scores right in between the Galaxy Tab 3 and the Nexus 10, being only 0.10 an hour shorter than the Nexus 10.
Putting the Surface Pro on that list and saying it's Microsoft's fault is wrong.
My grandfather, now 92 years old, has been screaming at his condo building for two decades now. They have a pool, and a sauna. It's an electric sauna. Because it takes time to warm up, people turn it on, go for a quick swim, and come back to it 15 minutes later when it's hot. In the end, the electric sauna runs electric current through a resistor for an hour to heat up and stay hot for the people inside. It winds up being something rediculous like 10 kWh for a 1 hour sauna, where just a few drops of liquid fuel would easily achieve the same levels of heat, at a tiny fraction of the cost.
The energy loss across the electrical grid is staggering when you look at it from cradle to grave. It winds up being close to or over 40%, and it's absurd.
Since we're supposed to blame Edison, maybe we should also blame your grandfather for not punching him in the nose when he had a chance?
Before anyone starts getting scared by the Wal-Mart riot, look again at the "people of Wal-Mart". If they went on a rampage they'd make it, what, 30 yards before being too out of breath to continue? Just head up the nearest flight of stairs, you'll be fine.
In reality, noone. But then, if they show they won't pay, who will borrow the US any more? And since they debt keeps growing, the need more. The only way out would be printing more dollars, and the amount needed would lead to hyperinflation.
Yeah, but aren't the sender and receiver unencrypted? I haven't bothered to read the article, but it shouldn't be hard to build up this info by scraping the envelopes.
Similarly, even if the contents are encrypted, they can still see what the IMAP server says when it gives you a list of subjects.
When you put it that way, it makes me disappointed that most radiation shielding consists of really heavy metals (and/or plastic; remember kids, shield your beta emitters properly!) and not giant zeppelins. That would be so much cooler. Yes. Zeppelins.
You could combine the two approaches, but I'm not sure that Jimmy Page would appreciate being used that way. At least Bonzo won't complain too much.
The EU's mandate doesn't come from a love of micro-USB, but rather the need for a standard, whatever that is.
where is this need? were planes falling out of the sky? eu is legislating something that belongs to the market, and using heavy handed politics to do so.
I'm shocked, shocked that socialists are legislating something that belongs to the market. Round up the usual suspects!
Outside a few outliers that are in the tinfoil hat category, feminists (esp 3rd wave) say no such thing. The ones who do are routinely ignored even by the 2nd wave and are actively criticized by most 3rd wave.
Nobody except the in group cares about this sort of internecine fighting. Feminists are feminists to the vast majority of the public.

And in response, the bootlicking lover of authority scurried back into his troll cave, it seems.

The webinar begins with some recommendations that are actually good netiquette.
Is this webinar on the Information Super Highway?
Can you work the 'cyber' prefix in there somehow?
Ahem...it should read "Trolling is AN art"!
YHBT. YHL. HAND.
I'm not talking about winning a war. I'm talking about doughboys fucking your grandmother, be she kraut, frog, or limey.
I see: making excuses for your ancestor not punching out Thomas Edison.
Great idea!

Your maternal ancestors didn't say that ~1945.

You want a head with hair? Long beautiful hair? Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen?
The nastiest project I ever took over was written in Perl
Came for the anti-perl quip, left satisfied.
Race is just another way to keep we, the proles divided.
Titles of nobility, how quaint.

So Walmartians are actually Daleks?

I'm sorry, as awesome as he is, the lead singer of Herman's Hermits cannot force the US government to pay its debt.
Ignore comments about IMAP where that traffic is encrypted. No idea what percentage that is.
And that, kids, is what encryption is for.

> You talking about Hedy Lamarr
It's not "Hedy", it's "Hedley".
Correct!

Thank you.
you're being sarcastic, but i cant tell if its sarcasm or double-sarcasm, and on which side of the issue you lay.
Sadly, I've been doing this for so long, neither can I.

Fahrenheit 451?
Sorry, my copy was lost in a fire before I could read it. What was it about?
Who cares, Honey Boo Boo is on TV.
