  1. Re:Russians helping the democrats so far on Google Investigates Facebook's Russian Political Operatives, Will Address Congressmen (recode.net) · · Score: 2, Informative

    $100k? That's it?

    Hell, I dropped a $1,000 personally out of my own down pocket advertising last year on politics. And the closest I ever been to Russia is New Hampshire.

    If so I'll be happy.

  3. Blame Apple when it is Facebook on iOS 11 Is Causing Massive Battery Drain Problems (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    I started noticing a huge drain on my iPhone about 4 or 5 days before I upgraded to IOS 11. I checked the battery status prior to upgrading and Facebook was sucking a lot of my CPU cycles. IOS 11 did not change that at all.

  4. More power to you per the cannabis, but I just have a very hard time imagining any smoke of any kind being "harmless" going into a set of lungs.

  5. The American Heart Association and other reputable outfits would do studies on marijuana's impacts.

    I really have zero interest in relying upon Julio from the down the street's opinion on marijuana's impacts.

  6. A mountain out of a molehill?

    Whether "sedentary" is the correct word to use or not the implication is that a low activity lifestyle is harmful.

    You say tomato I say potato.

  7. Huh? on Sedentary Lifestyle Study Called 'A Raging Dumpster Fire' (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Apparently someone has a seriously big chip on their shoulder.

    Exactly how does funding a study that indicates you should do something that is healthy for you a complete and utter sham?

    It is not Coca Cola's job to criticise themselves. There are plenty of people out there that will do that regardless.

  8. Assuming you do not use Chrome, which doesn't allow it. You first have to download Firefox. At least that has been my experience.

  9. Exactly!

    > And there's a lot more people willing to kill other people to make a statement, especially if they thing they can avoid getting caught, than are willing to kill themselves in the process

    I think we are both correct. Have a great day!

    I think you are being far too conservative with your imagination. What is to really keep someone inside a hyperpod from doing the same?

    There is always someone willing to give up their life to end other's lives.

    But exactly how do you manage to hang on to the roof of a hyperpod at 1,000 MPH?

    I'm sorry, but a "Google +" button does not add one single solitary piece of information to search results.

    It merely provides a sort order.

    At this time I don't think an anti-trust breakup is necessary. I, along with thousands of others, are working hard to circumvent Google. I'm quite sure some of these efforts will take hold and be successful. It's just a matter of time.

  18. Orwell's 1984. If there were ever a more prescient book I can't identify it.

    1984 should be required reading for our children. But soon, just like "Gone With the Wind", "1984" will be more and more banned in the public sphere.

    Thought, initially not banned by your government, but by the Wizards of Silicon Valley. The ones who hide behind a digital curtain, leading you down a yellow brick road, and adorning you with stories of how you too can have a heart.

    But as the curtain of "Do No Evil" devolves into "We Tell You What is Evil" even the most dense among us realize they live in chains.
    Chains not denoted by iron and steel, but by plastic, silicon, and lithium.

    It is incumbent upon good women and men, who believe in freedom of thought, to take a stand. For if they don't children who never read 1984 will live in 1984.

  19. I heard Apple removed VPNs from it's store recently due to Chinese pressure. True? Related to this?

    1080 is okay, but I wouldn't pay more for it over 720. 4k? Every demo I've seen of it it looks like someone has put a video through an extreme sharpening filter. It doesn't look natural.

  25. There is no such things as an unfixable flaw in a car. It all has to do with how much money you have and how much of it you are willing to spend to fix the issue.
