  1. Predictably, they think their citizens == idiots on Web Petition For 2nd EU Referendum Draws Huge Interest (ap.org) · · Score: 0, Troll

    They questioned the results of their betters, so the pro-EU media promotes a second referendum to get the "right" result.

  2. So they want to be screwy with their own. on Robot Pizza Company 'Zume' Wants To Be 'Amazon of Food' (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    If they're trying to be the Amazon of something, they'll be screwy with the few humans involved in the process.

  3. Soon to be rightfully squashed. on New Apps Let Women Obtain Birth Control Without Visiting a Doctor · · Score: 0

    Require in-person consultation for any substance capable of that function and a painfully penalized denial of shipment.

  4. They hate rifles, save for their Praetorian Guard on Thanks To Apple's Influence, You're Not Getting A Rifle Emoji (buzzfeed.com) · · Score: 1

    Thankfully, one can put them in place of what does go in there.

  5. Apple pays all taxes required by law**

    ** - Exotic accounting excepted.

    There's your Barry Bonds asterisk.

  6. Perhaps they should have been more dev-friendly on BlackBerry Really Struggling In Android Market (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    A root-friendly version of the Priv would have at least mitigated the damage.

  7. I wonder how this will be messed up. on Apple Reportedly Developing 5K Retina Thunderbolt Display With Integrated GPU (hothardware.com) · · Score: 1

    Apple's been well known for not playing well with others, especially with Thunderbolt.

    (Waste your modpoints on someone else, Apple shills)

  8. Golfcarts for Danes, Cars for Nomenklatura? on Norway Agrees On Banning New Sales Of Gas-Powered Cars By 2025: Report (electrek.co) · · Score: 1

    So they want to mandate lesser "cars" for their citizens while letting their nomenklatura drive actual cars? So far, about anything affordable to the average person trends towards golfcart size, as opposed to usable size. Of course, exotics and other vehicles meant for "betters" are untouched.

    Not surprised given that it is the technocratic EU, where you accept what your "betters" give you and don't question their sins - unless you want to be smote from the Earth as an enemy of mankind.

    But don't let a little truth get in the way of your narrative.

  9. Golfcarts for Nords, Cars for Nomenklatura? on Norway Agrees On Banning New Sales Of Gas-Powered Cars By 2025: Report (electrek.co) · · Score: -1, Troll

    So they want to mandate lesser "cars" for their citizens while letting their nomenklatura drive actual cars?

    Not surprised given that it is the technocratic EU, where you accept what your "betters" give you and don't question their sins - unless you want to be smote from the Earth as an enemy of mankind.

  10. Time to kill it. on Tech CEOs Declare This the Era of Artificial Intelligence (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    Since it won't be used to help humanity, but to remove work faster than it is replaced, kill it.

  11. I wonder how they'll screw it up. on Apple Reportedly Developing 5K Retina Thunderbolt Display With Integrated GPU (hothardware.com) · · Score: 0

    Apple's been well known for not playing well with others, especially with Thunderbolt.

  12. Welcome back to the GDR. on Microsoft, Facebook, YouTube and Others Agree To Remove Hate Speech Across the EU · · Score: 1

    If you liked East Germany or the USSR, now you get a second crack at the bat - in the name of "feelings".

    Never mind that the private sector partnership is used as a shield against government accountability.

  13. It might as well be for having the SJW's CoC. on NetBSD 7.0.1 Released (netbsd.org) · · Score: 2

    However, NetBSD doesn't have the issue of being SJW-compliant. It concentrates on the project itself, not making tumblrinas happy.

  14. No, since Node.js has too much ideologues in it on Ask Slashdot: Have You Migrated To Node.js? · · Score: 1

    (That, and people modbombing me only serves to confirm it)

  15. No, since Node.js has too much ideologues in it on Ask Slashdot: Have You Migrated To Node.js? · · Score: 0

    They're more concerned with far-left ideological purity than they are about the language itself.

  16. How about a QWERTY keyboard? on Project Ara Lives: Google's Modular Smartphones Coming To Developers This Fall (recode.net) · · Score: 1

    Not everything can be done by Swype.

  17. If like Facebook, they'll go for conservatives on Terrorists No Longer Welcome On OneDrive, Outlook, Xbox Live (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    They'll leave most of the actual terrorists alone, but manage to use this to silence right-wing opinion.

  18. More SJW complaints? Not surprised. on Men Are Sabotaging The Online Reviews Of TV Shows Aimed At Women (fivethirtyeight.com) · · Score: 0

    They're trying to make a tempest in a teapot.

    Besides, it's not as if 538 hasn't been wrong before on something like this.

  19. Nice, but no thanks for a threat to humanity. on Google's Tensor Processing Unit Could Advance Moore's Law 7 Years Into The Future (pcworld.com) · · Score: 1

    Perhaps when it isn't something that is likely to take multiple lines of work out in one shot, I'll be for it.

  20. Germany won't help. on Developer Of Anonymous Tor Software Dodges FBI, Leaves US (cnn.com) · · Score: 1

    The US can make it a very big, royal PITA no matter what her status is in Germany.

  21. Thank the SJW's (& other leftists) for toxicit on Wikipedia Editor Says Site's Toxic Community Has Him Contemplating Suicide (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    For them, it's only harassment if they're the "victim".

  22. The desperation of thieves. on China's Tech Work Culture Is So Intense People Sleep and Bathe In Their Offices (techinsider.io) · · Score: 1

    These are the faces of those stealing from the US.

  23. Capricious? Arbitrary? Sounds like Arbitration. on Are US Courts 'Going Dark'? (justsecurity.org) · · Score: 1

    Without any need for due process or impartiality, they walk all over people.

    If that's what you want, you're probably involved in that industry.

  24. Then hold them to the same standard. on Are US Courts 'Going Dark'? (justsecurity.org) · · Score: 1

    For the privatized portions, require reasonable and nondiscriminatory (RAND) access in a manner identical to public records.

  25. Good to see them lose for once. on Uber and Lyft Spend $8.2 Million To Lose Fingerprint Election, Vow To Leave Austin (examiner.com) · · Score: 1

    Granted, it is Austin, but there is something good in being able to resist the whims of pseudo-taxi services. The rules have worked well for Austin's residents, they don't need to give an exemption for trendiness.

    What kind of bribery will they try next to get around the check that every other service uses? Or will they just try to implement another baseless "DeBlasio meter" to cause customer-sourced pressure? Besides, rule exemptions are for high-speed toll roads ;)
