  1. That's what you get with guest workers. on Pennsylvania Sues IBM Over Jobless Claims System Upgrade (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Other things aside, I'd bet they contributed to the problem in more ways than one.

  2. Explain why the media doesn't fight the DNC. on How Wiretaps Actually Work (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 1

    The Trump administration is not fighting truth, but those in the media that have a lot of ability to spread convincing lies.

    The media seems to have a nasty habit of believing untrue statements when it fits a political narrative, but not believing the truth when it doesn't.

  3. That's how Obama's administration worked. on How Wiretaps Actually Work (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 1

    This is how an authoritarian government worked

    Obama's authoritarian manner, combined with his handler Valerie Jarrett, show exactly how an authoritarian apparatus works. Trump on the other hand is showing how dedicated the left is at defending their meal ticket.

    They care less about the truth, and more about justifying their actions with a painted visage of half-truths and lies.

    The only thing that gives the establishment's lies any currency is that they have the media largely under their control.

  4. More leftist trash. on How Wiretaps Actually Work (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 1

    If there's a fitting entity to the phrase "American Media, Domestic Enemy" it is the Washington Post through their defense of leftists and attacks on anyone else.

  5. This should be an admission of fault. on Uber Admits Its Ghost Driver 'Greyball' Tool Was Used To Thwart Regulators, Vows To Stop (usatoday.com) · · Score: 1

    Since they were not wishing to comply in good faith, it would be proper to presume that they had something to hide.

  6. They're just too stark raving mad out there. on University of California, Berkeley, To Delete Publicly Available Educational Content (insidehighered.com) · · Score: 1

    Why would I want to attend a university (much less be in a state) that legitimizes assault on anyone that doesn't toe the Party line (both conservatives and not)?

    I'll let other people be railroaded by Title IX and be indoctrinated in INGSOCJUS.

  7. Make the yachts and they will drive them. on New York State To Launch Electric Vehicle Rebate (foxnews.com) · · Score: 1

    US citizens. The only reason golfcarts get driven is that they're the only things around in a price bracket - thanks to overzealous environmentalism.

    Swap the small cars out for larger US-sized models, and they will drive them.

  8. Sketchiness raised to a another power. on Toronto Start-Up Will Send a Mechanic To Your Driveway To Repair Your Car On Demand (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    Not only do you have sketchiness of a random person, you also have the precariousness on the person visiting you.

  9. Re:$2000 rebate on a $40000 electric vehicle on New York State To Launch Electric Vehicle Rebate (foxnews.com) · · Score: 1

    Or a well-done Crown Vic, had Ford not killed the American vehicle platforms off.

  10. Step 1: Make an affordable (not Tesla) land-yacht. on New York State To Launch Electric Vehicle Rebate (foxnews.com) · · Score: 1

    "We want to make electric vehicles a mainstream option,"

    Make a land yacht - something about the size of a Crown Victoria - that is within the reach of ordinary individuals. Get it to start around $20-25k and you have an option that people would want.

    The only way the golfcarts are attractive is that they're all but forced into existence.

  11. Berkeley's arrogance seems to get the best of them, but that's California for you.

  12. So they purged Intel ME on Litebook Launches A $249 Linux Laptop (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Intel's Celeron N3150 processor ...
      are entirely free of malware

    I wouldn't be too sure about that claim if they're using a processor with Intel ME on it.

  13. A Clinton organization evaluating itself? on Facebook Begins Marking 'Fake News' As 'Disputed' (wdrb.com) · · Score: 1

    Given Snopes' funding by Clinton interests, I'd be highly suspect of them [effectively] clearing themselves.

  14. Social Justice Warriors have had it in for Uber for a while. The standard tactic is to find a few things wrong and flood the news cycle with hate and loathing for the target, which they are doing now with Uber. I've seen the secondary attacks mass on Twitter and Facebook from some liberal friends.

  15. "Disputed" by the left. on Facebook Begins Marking 'Fake News' As 'Disputed' (wdrb.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This is just another way to cover for their bias, especially when they're as selective on policy enforcement as Twitter.

    I guess the new bar of "making it" will be having your story 'disputed' by Facebook's favorites.

  16. Social Justice Warriors have had it in for Uber for a while.

  17. Razer could just make a better Thinkpad. on Razer Wants To Build the Best Linux Laptop, And It Needs Your Help (facebook.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Look at what made the Thinkpad great and fix what Lenovo broke on it. Done.

  18. Yet it is abused more often than not. Better to have the probationary period to disincentivize abuse.

  19. What does Uber have to hide by avoiding the law?

  20. Much better way is just do a contract to hire.

    Only if your goal is to abuse or misclassify someone.

  21. Pushing AI much, are you?

  22. Narrative Control Tools. on Twitter To Get Even Harsher On Trolls (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    It's not "harassment", it's all about controlling the narrative against political opponents of Twitter's owners.

  23. Another Apollo-series mission. on SpaceX Plans To Send Two People Around the Moon In 2018 (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 1

    One step forward, one huge step backwards in space travel.

  24. Re:"Police found Purinton 80 miles away at Applebe on Garmin Engineer Shot And Killed By Man Yelling 'Get Out Of My Country!' (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Sorry America, you have a problem and the stats are pretty clear on that point.

    Which can be fixed with more guns, not less. Repeal all the gun disarming acts of the last century and let people take care of the problem.

  25. Not really on Netflix Just Announced a User Focused Security Application (netflix.com) · · Score: 1

    jailbroken/rooted status,

    Which makes it automatically a user-hostile approach.
