  1. Investing in the American people? Silicon Valley regards them as deplorable. Dangerous people who have to be kept in check lest California lose all that sweet indentured labor from overseas.

  2. Why don't you fund your own research and stop complaining about the Americans doing their own? Then you can have all the Celsius you want!!

    Every American on Slashdot, an American website.

  3. What is the deal with people bowing down to show obedience to a major corporation's preferred nomenclature? We'll call them whatever we damn well please. Is this due to the gender confusion thing? Fuck what people think.

    The rest of the world relies on America to develop the technology and pay for the development. Then they complain it's not good enough or they hate American cultural contamination. It's the no-win situation. The only winning move is not to play.

  8. Seriously? Leading an article with Trump Derangement Syndrome? You know you people are a minority, right? It's not healthy to stay in echo chambers, you get the idea that everyone thinks like you do and deliberately inflammatory rhetoric is noncontroversial.

  9. All I ever heard was how non-serious this was, and what a trivial violation it was, and mishandling top secret documents in a way that guaranteed they fell into the hands of Russian intelligence (It was a windows server computer and the program was **Microsoft remote desktop**. No shell requirement to get into her shit. It was that **easy**), and the only remediation should be mandated training for the personnel involved.

    In the interest of consistency and fairness, the following must be done: an exoneration letter must be drafted in advance. Immunity given to top Trump aides. The #2 official's family has received large donations from Trump's political friends. Prior to the interview, the lead official meets privately on plane tarmac with Trump's wife (to discuss grandchildren). As long as they believe no harm was intended, he's let off the hook for any violations. Trump aides should be permitted to destroy subpoenaed or relevant public records and wipe relevant servers with a cloth or something.

  10. Hillary proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that top government officials are exempt from these kind of laws. Why is it a surprise that the practice continues?

    The mainstream media is not motivated by profit. Most of them don't make money any more. Now they are the mouthpieces of billionaires like Carlos Slim (New York Times) or Jeff Bezos (Washington Post). It turns out what "we" demand is incisive, detailed content that takes time to examine the issues. Have you seen the Joe Rogan show? The segments are 2-3 hours and he has millions of viewers. His recent triumph was with Tim Pool tearing the Twitter CEO and his media lapdog a new asshole for their obvious political bias. It was awesome. And your idea that our political and media establishment don't aspire to a world order is utterly false.

    'Memba when Glenn Thrush of Politico was exposed seeking Podesta's approval of articles about Clinton. Even Thrush wrote "please don't tell anyone" and "I'm such a hack". The consequences for Thrush? He was hired by the New York Times after the election.

    'Memba when a New York Times reporter called Melania a hooker and they wouldn't even release the name of the reporter that said it, let alone fire her.

    'Memba when The New York Times used eliminationist rhetoric as the lead sentence of an article on the op-ed page in December 2009: "A message to progressives: By all means, hang Senator Joe Lieberman in effigy." Burning an effigy, like burning an American flag, is constitutionally protected symbolic speech. It is also about as eliminationist as speech can get, short of a true threat or incitement.

    'Memba when New York Times advocated for authoritarian China-style government?

    'Memba when NYT journalist Ali Watkins blamed Trump lawyers for leaks, while she was fucking a Senate committee staffer twice her age who was leaking her classified info? Her punishment? The journalist was reassigned and given a "mentor" instead of being fired for breaking one of the most basic rules of journalism.

    'Memba when the New York Times praised a coup in Venezuela? And stated in print, falsely, "With yesterday's resignation of President Hugo ChÃvez, Venezuelan democracy is no longer threatened by a would-be dictator. Mr. ChÃvez, a ruinous demagogue, stepped down after the military intervened and handed power to a respected business leader, Pedro Carmona."

  15. Breaking the narrative on Facebook Knew of Cambridge Analytica Data Misuse Earlier Than Reported (theguardian.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    This is somewhat easy to misconstrue. Most people will take that as the data was used in the general election, when according to the mainstream media:

    "In late September 2016, Cambridge and other data vendors were submitting bids to the Trump campaign. Then-candidate Trump's campaign used Cambridge Analytica during the primaries and in the summer because it was never certain the Republican National Committee would be a willing, cooperative partner. Cambridge Analytica instead was a hedge against the RNC, in case it wouldn't share its data.

    The crucial decision was made in late September or early October when Mr. Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner and Brad Parscale, Mr. Trump's digital guru on the 2016 campaign, decided to utilize just the RNC data for the general election and used nothing from that point from Cambridge Analytica or any other data vendor. The Trump campaign had tested the RNC data, and it proved to be vastly more accurate than Cambridge Analytica's, and when it was clear the RNC would be a willing partner, Mr. Trump's campaign was able to rely solely on the RNC.

    Where this is heading is control. Drivers will no longer control their cars. The company (or the government, which is pretty much the same thing under the corporatist tyranny) will control the car. You'll have to satisfy their requirements, whatever they decide they might be, before the car will turn on. Then your destination will have to qualify. Going to the shooting range?
