  1. Re:The driving force of Science is the Free Market on In the Trump Administration, Science Is Unwelcome. So Is Advice. (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    ...oh really.. by all means tell us about history's great scientists and what they were trying to sell?

  2. golf? really.. you're going to bring up golf...? Conservatives were never really blessed with self introspection....

  3. Re:Um... no. on Star Citizen Video Game Launches $27,000 Players' Pack (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    People like that...(don't deserve wealth) AND YOU.. (wouldn't deserve the wealth - because people who pull the "you're just jealous card" aren't rich)

  4. Um... no. on Star Citizen Video Game Launches $27,000 Players' Pack (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    WHO are these people with $27000 to spend on a single video game... ?

    Seriously... $27k?!?.... If someone can literally pony up that much money for a video game's digital content. They should literally have their money straight up taken from them and used to house homeless people. Not even joking!

  5. ...at least they have the balls to regulate instead of having their insides coated with dollar scented Vaseline!

  6. Re:Lets convert Meters to Galons. on Human Race Just 0.01% of All Life But Has Destroyed 83% of Wild Mammals, Study Finds (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Well it's either "leftie" science or "rightie"religious dogma... your choice.

  7. Re:Just ignore the steam plume.... on Trump Administration Approves 10 New Drone Projects Around the Country (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Sorry.. I was making a tongue in cheek joke and didn't mean to cause chafing to your delicate parts... please accept my 100% sincere and heartfelt apologies for the hardship you and your family had to endure during this trying time. I'm sure with a few decades of therapy you might have some semblance of the normal life you used to enjoy. Furthermore, I've set up a GoFundMe account to help with the financial burdens you've had to incur and made sure that the funds made it to the wealthiest person in your zip code so that they can help you with this debilitating issue.

  8. Just ignore the steam plume.... on Trump Administration Approves 10 New Drone Projects Around the Country (theverge.com) · · Score: 0, Troll

    I've never seen a coal powered drone with liberal seeking missiles piloted by SpaceForce cadets. It's the only drone project I can see Cheeto Mussolini supporting.

  9. Cities were murdering each other to get the new Amazon headquarters... what would that do to rents?

    Increases rent faster than wages resulting in an increased homeless population. Also Amazon is buying up the residential so they can bring people in and set them up with homes right away...

    In short, Amazon is great for a city's economy, but it's awful for the people who are already living there.

  10. Re: Dear Democrats on Senate Democrats Plan To Force Vote On Net Neutrality (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    Oh so suddenly you have some sort of moral compass when it comes to symbolic legislation? Tell ya what sport... I'll give democrats the exact same degree of outrage you gave the GOP for Obamacare repeals.. sounds fair doesn't it?

  11. Re:Dear Democrats on Senate Democrats Plan To Force Vote On Net Neutrality (engadget.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Right, because conservatives NEVER passed symbolic legislation under Obama...

    Remind me how many times Obamacare repeal was voted on by the house under Obama with no chance of being pushed through?

  12. Old Hag on MIT Researchers Developed a 'System For Dream Control' (vice.com) · · Score: 0

    I was sleeping last night and my cat jumped up on my chest and sat down.. and I remember thinking, I wonder if this is where the "old hag" vision comes from. (A creature that sits on your chest usually accompanied by a feeling of severe panic like you're going to die) Someone in a state of dreamy hallucination with a cat on their chest could easily invoke that image.

  13. ...and yet it's the commonly held definition is that "on sale" means a discounted price from the norm. So saying something is "on sale" but not discounted in any way is disingenuous as you know that you are intentionally misleading people. It's basically letting people lie to themselves, which you can "technically" place on the other person, but it's a cowards excuse for moral behavior.

  14. ..or will they censor Fox for pretty much everything Fox says...?

  15. Re:Well it's clearly not x86 on Apple's Redesigned Mac Pro is Coming in 2019 (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Now might actually be a better time for marketing RISC processors.. since Ghz really isn't as much of a benchmark as it used to be.

  16. Hey genius... you ALREADY DO subsidize the oil industry!!!!

    So glad you're against that!

  17. "The solution, the paper suggests, is not fear but careful experimentation."

    Do you know what's a complete anathema to that ethos..... the drive of money. If we don't want to go down that road, then rampant greed needs to be dealt with first otherwise it's going to be a race to see who's first to get something exciting to market.

  18. ....maybe they were just talking about his career.

    Wow.. I didn't realize that Youtube had cornered the market on free speech! ALSO, bear in mind that people aren't coming to Youtube to *buy* a product... they ARE the product. Be sure to tell a merchant that when they no longer wish to carry your wares.. just cry FREE SPEECH like a magic wand!

    A car is private property, with no right to public access. Youtube is a business and all about public access.

    Please, tell me more about gay wedding cakes...

  23. Educational free market on Chinese Companies Are Buying Up Cash-Strapped US Colleges (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Colleges should "loan" students an education and in their following oh say 10 years after the student pays back X% of the money they make. If their education was any good then the students job placement will reflect that and the college will make money, if not then the college will sink due to lack of proper education and subsequent lack of funds.

  24. Re:Remember the Optimus Maximus keyboard? on New Apple Patent Imagines an OLED Screen As a Keyboard For MacBooks (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    I was going to bring that up, but for the life of me couldn't remember the name of it! It seems there must be a solution somewhere in the middle. You would think with screen tech being as advanced as it is, that mass producing little key screens wouldn't be that hard.

  25. Just wow. I really hope these motherfuckers have a good view of each other when they're burning in hell.

    They're a bunch of stupid fanatics, sure, but unfortunately not stupid enough to believe in 'hell'.

    Just stupid enough to create it.
