  1. Trying to fix moral and ethical issues with technology. Far too many people do not value human life or respect fellow man. I own dozens of guns and haven't shot a single person, yet.

  2. Re:they were just exploiting the good work that .. on YouTube Red and Google Play Music Will Merge To Create a New Service (theverge.com) · · Score: 0

    That's my point ...

  3. they were just exploiting the good work that ... on YouTube Red and Google Play Music Will Merge To Create a New Service (theverge.com) · · Score: 0

    Redtube already did for the play on the name. Yawn ... is Google profitable at anything other than selling ads?

  4. enough already

  5. No shit. Though most aren't intellects to start with.

  6. You mean Access Point? on Ask Slashdot: How Can You Avoid Routers With Locked Firmware? · · Score: 0

    ... Surprising how many "tech" people use marketing and incorrect terms for "technical" equipment. I bet you have a cable "modem" too, huh?

  7. Misguided like Chicago's other asinine statutes. Restore vocational / technical education in high schools, stop selling the bullshit notion that higher education is required and will bestow income and employment.

  8. Re:Amazing they took this long on US Banks Launching Answer To Peer-To-Peer Payment App Venmo (reuters.com) · · Score: 0

    You mean the CIA exploited SWIFT? Zelle is underpinned by Early Warning in Phoenix, rest assured it's not about anything other than further data mining of financial transactions.

  9. early warning is the google of banking on US Banks Launching Answer To Peer-To-Peer Payment App Venmo (reuters.com) · · Score: 0

    invasive and some serious data mining going on all under the guise of security and convenience.

  10. bullshit click bait ... on Developer Accidentally Deletes Production Database On Their First Day On The Job (qz.com) · · Score: 1

    just like the "supposed" rm -rf / last year ... And if anyone is given access on their first day to production data, eh the CTO should be whacked first.

  11. the problem isn't diagnosis on IBM Says Watson Health's AI Is Getting Really Good at Diagnosing Cancer (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 0

    It's prevention and treatment... Diagnose until your Big Blue in the face, but without effective treatment what's the point?

  12. I would bet the state with the most cities on the list is Commifornia.

  13. oh, but they have! on Bill Simmons Says ESPN Blew It By Not Embracing Tech (cnbc.com) · · Score: 0

    Take a look at Tiger Wood's photochopped mug shot...They used the ever popular filter "hairPlugs b gone."

  14. fuck this stupid fuck on The Trump Administration Wants To Be Able To Track and Hack Your Drone (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 0

    To the chopper or you're fired. What ever fits. The fourth amendment is still around for a reason. Fuck you. Fuck Putin (on a ritz).

  15. watch Poverty Inc ... on Amazon's 1.7 Million Free Bananas 'Disrupting' Local Fruit Economy (consumerist.com) · · Score: 0

    No shit subsidies whack the existing supply chain which may affect local or foreign economies. While the premise of charity and goodwill is a good one there are often consequences that negate the benefits.

  16. Re:no shit ... on Robots Could Wipe Out Another 6 Million Retail Jobs (cnn.com) · · Score: 0

    Sure. I was raised hunting, fishing and primitive camping, so when the SHTF yes, I can live. As far as skills, I have technical and mechanical skills that have evolved and allowed me to maintain contiguous and gainful employment for 25+ years now. Society has had to create jobs to sustain life. There are isolated societies that thrive as hunters and gathers that barter with others for what they cannot produce or make themselves. For all the benefits of post industrial revolution, fact is human life would exist without it, maybe not yours or mine, but humans.

  17. no shit ... on Robots Could Wipe Out Another 6 Million Retail Jobs (cnn.com) · · Score: 0

    People do not want to face the fact that the earth is over-populated. We've "evolved" from hunters and gathers that lived a sustenance lifestyle, to a bunch of pansies that have to create jobs and wealth to justify existence. If shit ever really hits the fan there are going to be a lot of people that are absolutely fucked.

  18. SlashDot, go ahead and turn off auto-renew on the domain, die with a shred of dignity left, or change your tagline to "/. Yesterday's News Today."

  19. I made this switch ages ago... on Should You Leave Google Chrome For the Opera Browser? (vice.com) · · Score: 0

    After being served a Federal Grand Jury Subpoena years ago I would not trust Google with any private data. Opera other than a recent constant "pinning" issue for windows is great on Mac and Windows.

  20. Compilation of public domain data hardly constitutes or negates an appraisal. Tax assessor and comp data is readily and publicly available, and usually online. Cook County Laws really do exactly what, anyway? Look at those violent gun crimes!

  21. nah, i already know what's in a whopper on Google Releases DIY Open Source Raspberry Pi Voice Kit Hardware (betanews.com) · · Score: 0

    I don't need google to read The Whopper Wiki page to me.

  22. More bunk media-hyped "science?" on Popular Belief That Saturated Fat Clogs Up Arteries Is a Myth, Experts Say (independent.ie) · · Score: 1

    It's a screwed up society in which we live where "scientist" falsify or out right lie to fuel an agenda, often funded by corporations and their lobbyists. We're all going to die. Fuck it, do what makes you happy as long as it does not infringe on others. Want an oreo, fucking eat it! Want a big gulp in NYC, fucking drinking it and flip the bird to socialist fear mongers.

  23. It would be bad business if they didn't on AT&T Brings Fiber To Rich Areas While the Rest Are Stuck On DSL, Study Finds (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Why wouldn't they invest where it would be fiscally beneficial to do so? It's a business, not a charity ... Is this some more social justice warrior snowflake baiting?

  24. Turdyota needs to fix their existing line first on Toyota Unveils Plan For Hydrogen Powered Semi Truck (rdmag.com) · · Score: -1, Troll

    Toyota may be running a little too LEAN the past few years. In the past five years quality is down considerably. The "new" Tundra was a backwards steps in features. Invest in multi-displacement, more and efficient gearing and return the brand to it's reliable reputation of initial quality and longevity.

  25. Google Home Whopper Edition on Ask Slashdot: What Was Your First Home Computer? · · Score: 1

    It's useless but provides endless entertainment.
