...because the people who are stupid enough to easily believe all the crap they read on social media are usually the ones who are on social media the most. Oh, and those are the people having the most kids. The world is rapidly becoming the Idiocracy movie.
Maybe MS is going for the "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" tactic here. Personally, if I were the execs at MS I would've wanted to team up with Firefox to try to take down the giant rather than pretend to be just like the giant.
...and nobody watches them anymore. Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, et al should make their own streaming media award show that doesn't have any of that political crap.
HuffPo, Vox, InfoWars, etc. could be hurt really badly by this if it takes off. Personally I would love to see that happen...could be a really good way to fight fake news.
Well yeah, ORANGE MAN BAD...no matter what!!! Didn't you get the memo from the NPC's? We are all to fall in line with the Progressive agenda lest we be labeled racist and *insert -phobic word of the day here*.
There's lots of bad things out there in the world. Shielding your kids from it is largely pointless. You're better off just explaining it to them to the limits of their understanding. That way they don't develop morbid fascinations with anything.
Except that YouTube Kids was supposed to be a safe place with procured content, and it clearly isn't. Maybe you don't mind exposing small children to this type of crap, but I sure as hell am going to keep it to a minimum if I can help it.
This idea is interesting, but worrisome to me. In a disaster there's a good chance you might need to get the heck out of dodge after a couple days. I'd hate to see what happens when 1000's of people need to travel away from the emergency but can't because their car's battery is drained from powering their house's appliances.
So at the current mobile data rates and caps, mobile carriers will either have to charge 100's of dollars for a single 5G plan (maybe 1000+), or admit that they've been price gouging for mobile data for many years.
And every day the ability of slashdot readers to make it past the headline before delivering their knee jerk response grows less and less.
A) It was supposed to be funny. Based on the comment moderation everyone else realized that. Clearly understanding humor of any kind isn't your thing.
B) If the *important* part was the last half of the very last sentence of the summary, then that should've been the headline.
C) You must be incredibly popular at parties (in case you couldn't figure it out, that was sarcasm). Settle down. Yeesh.
Maybe, but there's a big difference between trying to bate someone so you can get some laughs, and actually calling someone out for being an idiot and spreading lies or fake news. The latter should be done whenever possible to keep that stuff to a minimum.
Not really. My primary isn't until most of the other primaries have already happened. By that time the candidates have basically already been decided. So yeah, unless your state's primary is in February or March, you're screwed by the crappy choices the Super Tuesday states make.
Get with the program, gramps!!! This is computers doing stuff and therefore, according to current vernacular, is CLEARLY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE!!! Like, OMG, stop throwing shade at the AI or you're gonna get clapped back!!!!
I guess people who don't backup their stuff might find it useful. Personally, I trust my el-cheapo Synology NAS a whole heck of a lot more than any cloud.
I dont even try anymore, if youre a Trumper, youre not worth my time. You dont believe in objective reality, and since thats what all my arguments are based on, there is nothing really i can say to you that will click.
You know what's really funny? Idiots like you that think their crap doesn't stink are the reason the orange putz became president in the first place. You walk into a conversation already believing you're better than everyone else and then call someone a nazi as soon they disagree with you. You may think you're a big man but you're really just a tool.
Waaaah!!! More triggered babies. Grow up. I simply stated a fact about who appointed the idiot Pai. If your thin little skin can't handle that then get the hell off the internet, Yeesh.

Why such a long period in between calls? It should be 90 seconds.

Yes, because everyone who disagrees with you is a Russian Troll.

Boaty McBoatface is a waaaaaaay better idea than this.
Overpriced shoes
...and now this.
Underpaid workers
Colin Kaepernick, virtue signalling, SJW'ing

Soooo...people who are healthier have less diseases. Well done!

Pretty soon anything that runs on a computer or smartphone is going to be called artificial intelligence.

Just a little while ago /. ran an article about the internet becoming more civil. Then this article happened.

This. So much this. Sometimes when I'm bored I'll turn on the auto-generated CC in a few YouTube videos just for a good laugh.
