    Not so. The minority is only negative when it's undesirable. Blue eyes, for example, are a minority but not a negative. Gay sons are undesirable for obvious reasons (subjectively - don't hate). Parents want grand-kids, it may be as simple as that.

    How often are parents disappointed that their kid is straight? Being gay is subjectively more often bad than good and everyone knows it.

    I'd rather you be a little annoyed than burn fossil fuels to mine something that is objectively worthless

  4. That's nothing. Mine's been posting fake news stories to Facebook since last year.

    For the record, even the oil companies are saying that climate change is a major concern. Being to the right of those guys on an environmental issue really takes a particular kind of dumb-ass.

    I have no problems with coinhive, they are getting rich as fuck and good for them, but not on my dime.

    We've already covered this. ASIC doesn't do Monero well, that's the whole point. Anyway, what I don't like about this is that Coinhive is getting 30% of the take. That sounds way too high.

  17. I imagine median salary is less important than minimum wage when you're talking about factory workers. ~$6.60/hr in SK vs $7.25/hr in US. So basically the same pay depending on currency fluctuations (KRW is down lately)

    I myself have no Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or otherwise social media presence. You hand over power over you because you believe you get something back, but that something is often just an illusion.

    The real question, is why is good for Russian to have Trump as POTUS? Division !

    With Trump in power, no US media outlet has time for reporting human rights abuses abroad. That could be the whole agenda.

    Like Putin is saying: "Donald, CNN wants to run story about Russia torturing gays. We need morning poop tweet, comrade."

    Now if only Mueller can get Slashdot to hand over it's logs and we can see which and how many accounts were controlled by Putin's troll army. Wishful thinking, but I also hope someone at Facebook faces jail time over this, and I really hope it's Zuckerberg.

  21. Well Trump just got here. Should I blame him? Make up your mind, liberal!

  22. I can be dead and want to live or alive and want to die. Nice choices. Thanks, Obama.

  23. Nope, the incentives are cash, but you're right that WI won't pay if they're not hitting the job targets.
