  1. Re:Totally justified on Emails Show NSA Rejected Hillary Clinton's Request For Secure Smartphone (cbsnews.com) · · Score: 1

    Where do you get that? Bizarro World is a planet. It's fictional, but otherwise part of our reality.

  2. I don't see it. on Tor Users Can Be Tracked Based On Their Mouse Movements (softpedia.com) · · Score: 1

    Good luck catching pedophiles with that.

  3. A car with no driver moving at 2mph on Google Self-Driving Car Might Have Caused First Crash In Autonomous Mode (roboticstrends.com) · · Score: 1

    Probably looks like someone forgot to set their parking break.

  4. Re:Report + Judgment on Anonymous Goes After Miami Police Officer Who Doxed An Innocent Woman (softpedia.com) · · Score: -1, Troll

    If you're a cop, the people who are in charge of investigating and gathering evidence against you are your buddies and have got your back. But there's a line that cops are aware of, where if you cross it even your buddies won't protect you. That line is often somewhere between murdering a black person and murdering a white person, and it's the reason for Black Lives Matter.

  5. Re:Worst disaster? on Damage Report: LA Methane Leak Is One of the Worst Disasters In US History (inhabitat.com) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    We won't know for a while. We'll have to wait for the final death count that can be attributed to climate change and then do some regression analysis. That's assuming of course that humanity survives.

  6. So we shouldn't worry about methane leaks because cow farts are worse?

  7. Using the CO2 car data from here: https://www3.epa.gov/otaq/cons... and the CO2 to methane values here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... I get either 1.9M cars (20yr time horizon) or around 750K cars (100yr time horizon)

  8. Re:Why the steep climb on Google, Yahoo Cry About Ad-Blocking (cnbc.com) · · Score: 4, Funny

    So far their solution has been to abuse people and not call each other out when they notice other bad actors

    I like how we're calling them bad actors. Like we're eventually going to discover that Nicolas Cage was behind the whole thing.

    So you're going to google them? I wish you luck my friend.

  10. After reading the posts in this thread, re-read them in either Trump or Bernie Sanders' voice.

  11. I would have found a way to supplement my income. I see people selling Yelp 'reputation management' services all the time, being an inside /(wo)?man/ on that would be profitable indeed.

  12. Re:FBI not in trouble? on FBI Must Reveal The Code It Used To Hack Dark Web Pedophiles (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    Are the cops actually using the drugs? I'm pretty sure they get in trouble if they do. Viewing child pornography is the only crime that the judge, cops, and prosecutor all actually commit themselves routinely.

  13. Re:Can someone explain why the FBI needs Apple? on DoJ Says Apple's Posture on iPhone Unlocking Is Just Marketing (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    Right, because nobody's going to stand up for the rights of the shooter, but once they get a win it will set a precedent for the rest of us.

    Amazon? What exactly are we talking about here? Who are the players?

  15. Re:Bet: Did robots or humans edit this article? on Would You Bet Against Sex Robots? AI 'Could Leave Half Of World Unemployed' · · Score: 1

    Maybe we'd see higher quality slashdot with robot overlords.

    First let's dispel with this fiction that the editors don't know what they're doing. They know exactly what they're doing.

  16. Re:Already??? on Carly Is Out · · Score: 1

    Vegas bookies are paying out 1:4 if you bet on her right now. You sound like you know something they don't so put your money where your mouth is. The "Hillary is Inevitable" argument is not as strong as it was a few months ago.

  17. Re:One down. on Carly Is Out · · Score: 4, Funny

    I still think the Marcobot has a good chance, they just need to patch his firmware before the next debate.

  18. Re:Victory on Thirty Meter Telescope Likely Never Gets Built ... In Hawaii · · Score: 1

    They were really only paying lip service to those gods. Imagine if the US president ordered everyone to stop believing in Jesus. And then imagine that they did!

    So the Hawaiians were clearly never as religious white people. They had some weird hangups though - women couldn't eat bananas? That's weird.

    If you want to see some real religious and superstitious primitives, turn on the GOP debate some time.

  19. Re:Victory on Thirty Meter Telescope Likely Never Gets Built ... In Hawaii · · Score: 1

    It's not really accurate to call kapu a religion, or to call objection to the telescope superstition. It's more like sentimentality. If they were building the telescope in Bethlehem I think some people here would change their tune.

  20. Re:Additional information on Python 3 Is Coming To Scrapy (scrapinghub.com) · · Score: 1

    Also, we all know that scrapers are a bunch of degenerate parasites (and yes I include myself in that group before the downvotes come in).

  21. Re:Additional information on Python 3 Is Coming To Scrapy (scrapinghub.com) · · Score: 1

    It's very popular, but somehow took years to see Python 3 support? This is something that would take a single developer an afternoon to commit. I'm trying to decide if this speaks badly for the python community, or the scrapy community.

  22. Re:Whoopie on Python 3 Is Coming To Scrapy (scrapinghub.com) · · Score: 1

    No, ruby mechanize is analogous to python mechanize or perl mechanize (but somewhat better). Scrapy is some crappy scraping framework that's analogous to any other crappy scraping framework. import.io comes to mind, as does kimono.

    Republucan map time since they have no brain?

    They use bible passages. Less accurate but more satisfying.

  24. Re:Half Conspiracies on Math Says Conspiracies Are Prone To Unravel (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    I don't really see cancer-cure suppression as a conspiracy either. If a pharmaceutical company finds a cure for cancer, and decides it would hurt their bottom line to release it, what do you call that? That's just capitalism doing what it's supposed to do.

  25. Only one of these is a conspiracy on Math Says Conspiracies Are Prone To Unravel (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    It's the moon landing. An impossible conspiracy because of the number of people involved. The rest though are just exaggerated positions. Climate change is a fraud not because the scientists are conspiring to convince us of something that is not real, but because Jesus would never let that happen so the scientists are just mistaken. See how that works?

    A good conspiracy theory, like "911 inside job", can be pulled off with just a few guys. But maybe then it's no longer a conspiracy?
