  1. Re:This is to be expected on Where's All My CPU and Memory Gone? The Answer: $5B Worth Slack App (medium.com) · · Score: 0

    Yeah, it's like you have a girlfriend and want to have sex but she tells you "I'm saving myself for marriage but you can stick it in my butt *teehee*". It's awkward and smells bad and you can't ever get it in more than an inch so you just end up jacking off all over her ass. Then you find out she's actually a man.

  2. Even better for everyone with a PhD in Social Justice that is now cleaning storage closets and being an twitter hero.

  3. Please don't on Amazon May Unveil Its Own Messaging App (engadget.com) · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Amazon's consumer facing software is awful. I assume they outsource it to the cheapest Indian body shop they can find.

    the US Government believes all moon rocks are their property and aggressively pursue everyone who has one. SWAT teams and FBI sting operations -- for people who were *given* a tiny piece of moon rock by NASA 40 years ago.

    Not true. You can ask them where to find stuff, whether it be a can of beans in aisle 6 or a dimebag in the back alley or a blow job in the bathroom. Do you want a blow job from a robot?

    Fe should give his game away FREE and make money by selling tshirts and support contracts.

  9. AMP on 'Why I Decided To Disable AMP On My Site' (alexkras.com) · · Score: 0

    You know when a fat guy is in the doctor's office, one hand clutching a philly cheese steak, the other hand holding a half-empty party-size bag of doritos. And, in between swigs of a 2-liter Mt Dew bottle, he asks the Dr if there's a pill to help him lose weight, while his coronary arteries beg for the sweet relief of death.

    Yeah, that's AMP. most news and blog websites are painful to use on my 4 ghz desktop and are liable to kill my phone's browser. Publishers, you don't need a pill, you need to put down that cheese steak, turn off the 30 different trackers, analytics, taboolas, etc.

    The exception is Medium. If you use Medium, kill yourself.

    A lot. There was a massive Linux source code leak (all the source code going back to the early 90s) over the winter and hackers have been using it to find exploits.

    In 2010, Amazon invested $175 million in LivingSocial. In Q3 2012, they reported a $169 million loss due to their LivingSocial investments (since they owned such a large chunk of LivingSocial, they had to report equity losses due to LivingSocials' $275 million loss). In 2016, GroupOn did buy living social for an "undisclosed amount" (widely believed to be $0).

    Amazon invested over $500 million in drugstore.com but only recovered $50 million when Walgreens bought it for $409 million (which was about $409 million too much)

  15. He's right! on 'The Unwillingness To Foresee The Future' (stratechery.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I didn't see the future when Amazon blew all that money on Living Social. I didn't see the future when Amazon blew all that money on the Fire Phone. I didn't see the future when Amazon blew all that money on Drugstore.com.

    I know some people like to suck Jeff Bezo's dick but there is plenty of failure too.

    ChiComs have been secretly funding pro-Chinese propoganda in the US, starting a few years ago. Things like Chinese classes at public (and private) schools, pro-China festivals (Chinese New Year), and even journalism. I guess they're funding Slashdot because it's a copy-cat of reddit, but without the democracy :)

    Long before the scam website, kickstart was a motorcycle term. Still is, in fact. Most Apple customers are into the leather/handlebar mustache scene.

    kick-start:

    verb
    start (an engine on a motorcycle) with a downward thrust of a pedal.

    noun
    a device to start an engine by the downward thrust of a pedal, as in older motorcycles.

    I saw him a couple years back (2014?) at ESR's New Year Eve party. I wasn't expecting Anal Cox, but after the third or 4th bottle of Jaeger, he showed up. That was my first experience with Anal Cox and I can't say I cared for it. Everyone else couldn't get enough of the Anal Cox, though. He's one dirty fucker, I'll give him that.
