  1. Too much shit. on Ask Slashdot: Is Computing As Cool and Fun As It Once Was? · · Score: 3, Informative

    Dealing with crap like systemd.

    Learning a new language, you don't just learn the language. you learn the build system, sopme complicated IDE plugins, some decent libraries, but most are hack together messes etc.

    One example illustrates it all: Javascript.

    This is what happens when you arbitrarily ban people because you don't like them.

    It spawned gab.ai. Now they hint that they might ban Trump. Which means he would go to gab and take a lot of his 10million folowers with him.

    If states went with a two at large electors plus congressional district formula, Trumps victory would have been even bigger.

  4. Re:IL had free rides to all senior citizens 2008-2 on Paris Makes All Public Transportation Free In Battle Against 'Worst Air Pollution For 10 Years' (independent.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    To be clear about exactly what happened.

    In 2007~2008 the CTA was having financial difficulties. The Illinois legislature made a deal to bailout the CTA from some financial difficulties.

    At the last minute Governor Blago, who is now in jail for trying to sell a Senate set, thew in an additional condition: free rides on all Il public transportation for handicapped and seniors.

    It really pissed the legislature off because they had to redo the whole budget, but it got passed. He looked like a hero to seniors and the handicapped.

    Eventually he got inmpeached and the new Gov discovered that free rides were not sustainable. So they means tested it.

    Keep in mind though, that a largbe part of the cost is due to pensions for Chicago machine "cronies".

  5. Even if it just replaces half the sugar ....

  6. Right! And also, it's bizarre how electors of a state, say ID, are supposed to turn against the voters of their state and vote for Hilary just b'cos CA has given stolen for Hilary a margin that erases Trump's margin in the rest of the country. If they wanna do that, increase CA's #electoral votes in future elections.

    FTFY

  7. Strange how she only went after states where Trump won.
    I believe Virginia where Hillary was very close why not recount that?

    No eviedence?

    Like claiming that Comey only notified Republican House members, then later claiming you didn't know that he informed Democratic House members because you didn't look at page two.

    Like telling a mother her son died because of a video when she texted her daughter that it was a terrorist attack?

    Like claiming that Comey did not reopen the case. Even though he testified that he was no longer investigating the case, and then wrote a letter saying he was investigating it again. Claiming that's not the definition of "reopen".

    Arguing over the definition of a word, where did I hear that before.

    Like claiming that a she didn't know what a large C on a document meant.

    Like telling the world that the affair with Lewinski was a lie propagated by a "vast right wing conspiracy".

  16. That's because you can get them for free by searching NFL teams garbage.

  17. First off all price. at $600 you aren't going to buy them often. Plus I'm scared to carry it out n public.

    Second off, replaceable storage and battery. By replaceable I mean slide in and out.

    I see the RCA line as being the next big thing--the Viking, Galileo and Maven between $80-$150 and comparable to 1st gen Apple's and Samsung's.

    I totally agree with you b ut there is a loophole.
    If the buyer is Hillary Clinton , Bill can meet the head of the DoJ on a tarmac to discuss their kids.

  19. If they are coming home with the ship, then there is no reason to take long term life support ( in particular farming ) equipment off the ship.

  20. Well since the colonists would stay behind ...

    OTOH, I would think you would constantly want a ship in orbit where people can go in the case of a cataclysmic event.

    I envision that you would ( at first ) have two ships. One sits in mars orbit until the second one arives. Then the first one leaves and the second sts in orbit ...

    Then eventually there will be even more ships.

    This is a news site for nerds?
    Reading the comments on this thread I don't think so.

  23. One thing to keep in mind is that they will go out on a ship where they will live for a year.

    That ship will have to handle the same problems of food and air. So once you get past the ship, the colonization should be easy.
    Just transfer the facilities from the ship.
