    "This is a work effort."

    I haven't heard that expression before, do you mean: "This is a team effort"?

    I can tell you that arranging an email interview is fucking child's play: Dear Sir/Madam, will you accept some questions from us? We are a website, you may know us, http://slashdot.org/ Thank you for considering our enquiry, we look forward to hearing from you, Slashdot

    Fuck me, a high-school intern could organise this once shown the ropes.

    As a non-AC regular poster on Slashdot I entirely disagree with your statement.

    Putin is a very smart man managing complex politics in a complex (eastern Europe, middle-East, central-Asia) part of the world.

    Trump is easy to dislike but he has connected very well with a large part of the US.

    Hillary is my logical choice as I'm educated and tolerant and believe in left-ist ideals. However, I believe she is crooked and corrupt to the core and there is no way I can support her.

    So c'mon mate, it's a complex situation and you do yourself a disservice by "name calling" everyone you do not agree with.

    Ah, not quite.

    How will the working poor in the USA tolerate the dramatic hike in the cost of their manufactured goods that *will* come from the US shifting production away from China???

    A major part of your population is going to crack the shits.

    If you had cared more for your own along the way then this would be less of a problem.

    Not valid at all. What if you watch a film hoping it will get better. But it doesn't. By your logic the media has been consumed, except it was a pile of crap. I believe under such circumstances one is entitled to a refund.

    Not correct at all.

    Parents, domestic, social, and educational pressures can be massively different for different siblings in the same household.

    Read some academic research into first child syndrome.

  17. Typical USA on US Warns Samsung Washing Machine Owners After Explosion Reports (cnn.com) · · Score: 1

    Expect to see even more of this corporate warfare from the USA.

    They dipped their toe in the water with the Toyota accelerator pedal scandal.

    They deployed a much improved process with the Volkswagen emissions scandal.

    The exploding Note 7 will be just the beginning of a corporate take-down against Samsung.

    I mean what did you expect? That the NSA would only use its slkilz for foreign security? The USA's foreign security is intimately linked to its economic dominance, so of course they will do all they can to crush foreign companies trading/selling on US soil.

    "If I sold you a car and did not mention that when I had the head off the other weekend I noticed the block was cracked that would be fraud. On the other hand if I fail to mention its due of an oil change nobody is going to come after me for violating a lemon law let alone fraud."

    Look into the exceptions available to real estate agents regarding reporting on the fitness of a property for sale. Somehow they can get out of telling you that there are problems with the property.

    By your definition this is fraud. Why aren't all the realtors in gaol? Think how much better society could be if they were?

    "So instead of melting our own hole to Europa's ocean"

    This is actually almost impossible to do. The energy required to melt the ice is extraordinary, plus you still have to pump the water out without it refreezing. Drilling is less energy intensive, but again you need antifreezes and lubricants and these all run the risk of polluting the very environment you are trying to sample.

    Read about the difficulty of drilling to Lake Vostok in Antartica and you'll appreciate that there is no way we're going to do this on Europa any time soon.

    Nothing you have written is provable or supported by any observations.

    The experiment of life has been performed exactly once. Drawing wider conclusions from such a small sample size is ridiculous.
