  1. Found the Coastie! XD

  2. Four: Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines. Five, if you count the Coast Guard, but they're DHS not DOD except in time of war.

    "Women have always been the primary victims of war." --Hillary Clinton

    Alternate take: "97% of all combat deaths are male. Women and minorities hardest hit."

    Get woke, go broke.

    The Diana Moon Glampers of the world smile upon you.

  6. Re:Amazon on Seattle Repeals Tax That Upset Amazon (apnews.com) · · Score: 1

    You foolishly assume that the militia wouldn't immediately and loudly excoriated by the media and militant left (but I repeat myself) as a bunch of right-wing racist gun-nuts who just don't want brown-skinned animals in their neighborhoods.

  7. Ahh, but the tulips...that's...that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with...geometric logic...

  8. Re:umm volcanoes emit CO2 on Hawaii Passes Law To Make State Carbon Neutral By 2045 (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 2

    Am I the only one worried about the real threat of the island tipping over from all the people scrambling to the other side?

  9. Re: Wow on California Begins Trial Rollout of Digital License Plates (caranddriver.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I see it as more as distributed mining; GPS will give speed data and automatically issue speeding tickets (or failure to stop) "for your convenience."

    Just beware of the leopard.

  11. That was NOT the target!

  12. I think my favorites were the Tron games, B-17 Bomber, Bomb Squad, and Microsurgeon.

    I just read that in the original voice. Thanks.

    I had the Intellivision 2 with the voice module, but Space Spartans was the one game it simply wouldn't play. Tried three or four different cartridges but had the same black screen of death with each. That was okay, though, because the voices on B-17 Bomber more than made up for it.

    He identifies as a journalist, so who are you to say otherwise, you hateful bigot?

    And they're jailing journalists for engaging in journalism.

    I really wish I had mod points for this. No one ever stops to consider the impact on the cop; they just think every officer is some sociopathic madman looking for any excuse to shoot someone.

  19. Point? on Robot Worries Could Cause a 50,000-Worker Strike in Las Vegas (technologyreview.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    So they're willing to go on strike to prevent their jobs from being taken by robots that can't go on strike? I can see no downside.

  20. Huh? on Twitter Is Killing Several of Its TV Apps, Too (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    ...causing millions of readers to immediately ask, "Twitter has a tv app?"

  21. Re: The activists ate my homework! on Anti-GMO Activists Slow Scientists Breeding a CO2-Reducing Superplant (thebulletin.org) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Interestingly, my wife has the exact same reactions; can't eat American wheat but can scarf down German butter pretzels all day long. No idea why, but a physician friend of ours thinks it might have something to do with the number of proteins in modern wheat. 50 years ago, there were less than ten but now, in our effort to feed the world, there's more than 40. (I'm in the middle of a term paper, so you smug "citation needed" types can sod off.)

  22. This is largely why I stick with CureCoin. I get a few coins inreturn for letting my gear fold proteins and do God-knows-what other medical research for the Folding@Home team. I'm more interested in contributing to research, but if they want to give me the crypto-equivalent of a beer every couple of weeks, I'm a happy guy.

    I'm curious why you think bad people doing bad things is somehow Trump's fault? Would it not also, then, be the Senate Minority Leader's fault? Quit projecting the actions of murderous despicable vermin onto your political opponents.
