  1. Yes but how many of the chips are clones or copies on China Builds World's Fastest Supercomputer Without U.S. Chips (computerworld.com) · · Score: 1

    Yes but, how many of the chips are clones or copies?

  2. Not really, but on Majority of Americans OK With Warrantless Internet Surveillance (ap.org) · · Score: 1

    If you were to say left of conservatives that would be close enough

  3. NEWS is now Controlled by Progressives on Majority of Americans OK With Warrantless Internet Surveillance (ap.org) · · Score: 0

    Conventional wisdom is warrantless wiretapping is expected by the ilk of Cheney.

    If conservatives were in the administration, the NEWS would be pissed. The wailing would not stop.

    Instead, we are ostensibly being coached to accept warrantless wiretapping

    through the Associated Press and poll results from ordinary americans

    We are in bizarro world

    CORE LIE:they were not classified at the time they were sent to Clinton's personal email

    Either through codependency or conspiracy, news media overlooks perception of wrongdoing up to criminal levels.

    SUPPORTING LIE:These sort of things are too complicated for the public and press to understand

    the emperor's new clothes are beautiful.

  5. **including** U.S. service members? on Two US Marines Foil Terrorist Attack On Train In France · · Score: 2

    Looking at the dailymail account, this spencer airforce guy charged the moroccan, tacked him and while other passengers helped to disarm. Then he took box cutter slashes before they all beat the fsck out of the moroccan.

    No wonder it is said Obama dislikes individual achievement.

  6. It's not just about seeing ads. They mine info on In Windows 10, Ad-Free Solitaire Will Cost You $10 -- Every Year · · Score: 1

    Ads in the other apps stand out more and mine your info too.

    Desktop model downgrade to the Phone Business model is a loss.

    How much does it pay to be a Microsoft shill?

  7. Free OS = Adware trojan horse on In Windows 10, Ad-Free Solitaire Will Cost You $10 -- Every Year · · Score: 1

    If Windows 10 was totally free those arguments might hold up. People paid for the OS they upgraded from.

    I play Windows 10 Solitare Collection and see the ads every time a game finishes. Plus there is a nag to upgrade to the paid version.

    People migrating from Windows 7 will lose big time. Win 7 has a lot of high quality ad-free games

    BTW For fucks sake makes no sense.

    You state the premise and then go off on a tangent, sir.

  11. Your Pelousi quote is wrong. on Sen. Feinstein Says Anarchist Cookbook Should Be "Removed From the Internet" · · Score: 0

    Your quote is wrong.

    She said. "But we have to pass the bill so that YOU can find out what is in it, away from the fog of the controversy. "

    Far from being a moronic statement, Pelosi condescends to tell us we don't need to know what's in the bill until AFTER the it is passed.

    If they told us what's in it, people might find out how they would get screwed. Then there is more risk it might not pass.

    Consider how many storefronts are turning into "Urgent Care" run by nurses who write prescriptions for drugs. Ostensibly, people skilled at running pawn shops, check cashing stores and payday loan stores wrote Pelosi's bill to break into the Health Care business.

  12. Fine for children on An Open Source Flat Pack Robot Arm That's As Easy To Build As Ikea Furniture · · Score: 0

    Looks like mini or micro servos. Small, low capacity. Great for low cost. But it's a toy really, no?

  15. media matters? crooks and liars? on Video Raises Doubts About Attkisson's Claims of Malicious Hacking · · Score: 0

    It's official, /. has now degenerated into reddit.

    Politics thrives over tech. Shills spouting propaganda galore I miss the old days of ./.(when I was AC) before the religion of politics fouled this well.

    over on another thread. people are whining about koch bros. citing huffington post.

    funny how nobody cries over bullying by George Soros. (Koch of the socialists)

    where is there good old fashioned tech without the BS hyperbole. (Like /. used to be, like the early days of digg, etc.)

    How incredibly corrupt. How can it be better to feel good about a myth than to face the truth?

    Regarding the Score:5 Interesting bull crap you'd like to believe, it's time for propagandists to start an edit war on Wikipedia:

    A chemical weapon (CW) is a device that uses chemicals formulated to inflict death or harm on human beings. They are classified as weapons of mass destruction though they are separate from biological weapons (diseases), nuclear weapons, and radiological weapons (which use radioactive decay of elements)

  20. Simply, It's Political on 3 Congressmen Trying To Tie Up SpaceX · · Score: 0

    Musk supported Obama. So, the Republicans retaliate. That's how it's done in politics. (Democrats too.) Oh, and don't be surprised if the Republicans were supported by SpaceX competitors. If so, this tying-up is what politicians are SUPPOSED to do.

  21. All that really matters is...what? on Greenpeace: Amazon Fire Burns More Coal and Gas Than It Should · · Score: 0

    That is a dumb standard. You should do what someone says, or not, depending on whether their argument makes sense. That they are hypocrites is irrelevant. In this case, Greenpeace's argument is silly.

    So then should you should ignore the silly argument process?

    That is neither sensible nor reasonable. The moral compass greenies and environ-wackos use to elevate their superiority and shame others is particularly foolish. To disregard it is ignorant.

    When greenies practice hypocrisy is absolutely relevant. It is very easy to promote ideas that make sense in an unreasonable context. As a result their proposal is not sensible.

    Electricity during the day is not fungible with electricity at night. It is very difficult if not impossible practically to store power plant-hours worth of electricity.

    Clean vehicles are not equivalent to other Motor vehicles (especially aircraft) that operate with fossil fuels.

    Mr Greenpeace, you and others committed to saving the planet should only use resources that utilize renewable energy sources.

    To say ostensibly by one's actions, "I pledge to save the planet only when it's convenient." deserves a reply of STFU

    It's about politics. Greenies and environ-wackos hypocrisy must not be deemed irrelevant, especially "for the greater good".

    Controlling "the others" is what it's about. Never forget that.
