  1. Re:APK IS GOD on Bookmark Syncing Service Xmarks Closes For Good On May 1 (betanews.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    APK IS GOD

    My previous post was unjustly modded down. This is censorship.

    No. It's called 'garbage removal'. You don't know what censorship is.

  2. Re: save on cost of batteries on World's First Electrified Road For Charging Vehicles Opens In Sweden (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    You didn't even read the summary, let alone the article. Individual drivers will be billed by the system. No freeloaders.

  3. Reddit has been a piece of shit for years. I just go there for funny cat pictures anymore. The self important buffoons aren't worth discussing anything with.

  4. Re: MOAR litigation! on Craigslist Personals, Some Subreddits Disappear After FOSTA Passage (arstechnica.com) · · Score: -1

    Suppressing First Amendment rights by whatever means IS censorship.

    And suppressing second amendment rights by whatever means necessary IS ok by blue people

    It is funny how liberals pick and choose which Amendments they think are goodthink and which are badthink.

  5. You can buy an unlocked phone and flash it as much as you like. Most people go the easy route and accept a carrier locked phone so they don't have to shell out the cash up front.

  6. Re:What Is a "Fab"? on Power Outage At Samsung's Fab Destroys 3.5 Percent of Global NAND Flash Output (anandtech.com) · · Score: 4, Informative

    If you didn't understand any of the abbreviates or acronyms then this isn't the site for you.

  7. Not everything is a conspiracy. You can put away the tinfoil now.

  8. Re:Energy on Samsung's New TVs Are Almost Invisible (qz.com) · · Score: 1

    And why make it look like the wall, instead of making it look like a picture in a frame, instead of an expanse of wood, brick, whatever?

    (and if it's not a 3D, curved screen, you're not really buying into the marketing, anyway)

    They make one of those too.

  9. The burden to society? on Major New Study Confirms Antidepressants Really Do Work (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Certainly it does cost society, but what about the burden to the people suffering? Should not that be the paramount factor in treatment rather than profits for Pharmas?

  10. Re:Just one more nail in their coffin. on Equifax Releases Credit Locking App That Doesn't Work (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 2

    They should have been taken down after the last breach. It was not their first one.

  11. Re: the (actual) shooter and hillary for prison on Two More Gamers May Be Charged in Fatal Kansas 'SWAT' Shooting (kansas.com) · · Score: 1

    Agreed, and I'll add that if parents actually parented instead of using various gaming devices as surrogate babysitters then we might not have this problem.

  12. Re:Same Ol' Argument... on It's So Cold Outside That Sharks Are Actually Freezing to Death (vice.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    First of all, it is dew point, not 'due point'. Second, climate is weather trends over decades. One weather event that is outside of the norm, regardless of how many standard deviations, is not climate. It might become a data point that in time can point to a change in overall climate, but you obviously have no idea what you're talking about.

  13. We can do that where I live, or we can contract with a non-government third party collection agency. We opt for the latter because we can afford to and the recycling/waste center is a half hour drive.

  14. Re:PROPERTY on 2018 Is the Last Year of America's Public Domain Drought (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    If I build a house, I can will it to my ancestors.

    That would be true were it not for the fact that the Government will seize it if you don't pay property tax. That essentially means that you're just renting it.

  15. Bring on the downmods! on France To Ban Mobile Phones In Schools (theguardian.com) · · Score: 2

    Kids under 18 shouldn't even have phones other than ones tied to their parents' for the aforementioned emergencies. They also shouldn't have any access to social media in any way, shape, or form.

  16. Re:Impersonating me AGAIN? Please (lol)... apk on Autocratic Governments Can Now 'Buy Their Own NSA' (wired.com) · · Score: 1

    You are all fake. APK would post with an actual username if he were not a cowardly troll.

    And I hope you get the help you so desperately seem to need.

  18. Re:Seems dumb but need is real on Reporter Regrets Letting Amazon's Delivery People Into His House (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 0

    I did, but some people have nothing to add to conversations other than pedantry (not you).

  19. Re:BREAKING NEWS on China Has Launched the World's First All-Electric Cargo Ship (futurism.com) · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    You mean like the vast majority of posts on every Internet venue everywhere these days? One must remember that millenials never grew up. They *are* self righteous, petulant, ninth graders.

  20. Re:Seems dumb but need is real on Reporter Regrets Letting Amazon's Delivery People Into His House (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You sound petulant over it. 'Signature required' means someone has to physically be there to sign for the package. It doesn't mean you can just sign a slip of paper. Anyone could do that. If you're having consistent problems with delivery then perhaps you *should* start having them delivered directly to the deop where you can pick them up at your leisure.

  21. It worked very well. She's in nursing school right now and spent plenty of time playing outside.

    It is sad that you think FB is the 'only way people "do" communicate'.

  22. Right, because Facebook is the only way people can communicate...

  23. Re:Wholeheartedly agree on Why 'Shark Tank' Investor Kevin O'Leary Refuses To Spend $2.50 On a Cup of Coffee (cnbc.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Not to mention that most of those coffee houses serve absolute crap for coffee and overcharge for it. Hey, at least people get cute baristas once in awhile.

  24. Re: Why do writers do this? on Two Stars Collided And Solved Half of Astronomy's Problems. Now What? (fivethirtyeight.com) · · Score: 1

    Science isn't about what might seem obvious to one person. It's about proving it. There needs to be math to back it up. It's a cute plot device for Sci Fi novels, but that's about it right now.
