  1. Re:Still waiting for a another legitimate flagship on We're No Longer in Smartphone Plateau. We're in the Smartphone Decline. (nymag.com) · · Score: 1

    The S8 Plus was the first phone I've had since the note 3 that I felt was well worth the upgrade. Why? The OLED screen. It's simply beautiful and has low power consumption compared to the older phones. I have a folder full of downloaded GIFS and run an app that plays them randomly. My phone went from boring to pretty interesting overnight.

  2. Re:Well I guess I'll erase those bookmarks then... on Tumblr Will Ban All Adult Content On December 17th (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Maybe that is something they would like to find out? Hard to do when all their content is porn..

  3. The highlander may be your mother.

  4. What a joke! on Childhood Obesity Linked To Air Pollution From Vehicles (theguardian.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    People and kids are obese because our food supply has become contaminated with huge amounts of sugar and carbs. A huge number of American's are now diabetic as a result. The drug, foods, and medical corporations are all in cahoots on this. That there is no outcry from the government is in my opinion, because the corps are running the show.. https://www.cdc.gov/media/rele...

  5. I've fallen and I can't get up!

  6. Re:I created a product that affects millions... ap on Android Creator Is Building an AI Phone That Texts People for You, Report Says (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    It could of been windows all the way.. count your blessings :)

  7. Someday Grasshopper, you will create a product that will impact millions!

  8. The Elephant in the closet on Trump Administration Asks For Public Input on Data Privacy (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    How about Trump getting public input on the rampant greed in the Health Care Industry? It's the one thing he has not touched as far as I know. The high cost of health care is rendering our population poor as a third world country.

  9. Congratulations Walmart Employee! Your shift is now only two hours long

  10. Re:Wrong headline this is positive news on Hackers Stole Personal Data of 2 Million T-Mobile Customers (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    I agree, too often it's just covered up and everyone runs around like a headless chicken..

  11. SATS anywone? on How AI Can Spot Exam Cheats and Raise Standards (ft.com) · · Score: 1

    Can AI be used to identify poorly written or "stupid" "ineffective" exams?

  12. I"m sure I have that Mandrake Linux CD around somewhere.. shoots

  13. Re:They can not detain you.... on TSA Screeners Win Immunity From Abuse Claims, Court Rules (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    They can call an LEO who will then act on what they tell him or her. They are not actually doing the arresting if they involve an LEO.

  14. How Boring.. on Emirates Planes Could Be Going Windowless (abc.net.au) · · Score: 1

    I would prefer a clear see through fuselage with the exception of the seats and the lavs (let's not forget the lavs). That would be a total blast!

  15. Re:So I guess changes are coming? on Microsoft Acquires GitHub For $7.5B (microsoft.com) · · Score: 1

    I wonder.. I mean they just paid 7.5B for it. I would think they would handle it very very carefully..

  16. Don't mess with the formula! on Westworld's Scientific Adviser Talks About Free Will, AI, and Vibrating Vests (sciencemag.org) · · Score: 1

    The first season did pretty good on it's own without a science advisor..

  17. The Avenging Sun on NASA To Send 1 Million People's Names To the Sun (theatlantic.com) · · Score: 1

    What if all of those people with those names turn to ashes?

  18. My post is without real basis I mean..

  19. This post is without real basis, but I use Opera and it was having graphical issues after the update. I rolled back the driver (or tried too) and it then restore it and all was well.

  20. Those with cable TV services are being screwed blind for the value of what they are getting. So perhaps getting more speed (which they won't use in general) is a good promo. If you are a cord cutter, you can still pay to get the speed increase. Either way, Comcast makes money.

  21. So yearly at my company, they setup health screening by nurses (through a third party company). If they can use an AI driven device to look, you can then schedule an appointment knowing that it needs to be checked out.

  22. When we were youngsters on Windows 10 Is Finally Adding Tabs To File Explorer (bleepingcomputer.com) · · Score: 1

    My earliest memory of tabs is from Opera back in the 90's.. I "think" they invented the concept and then other browsers copied it..

  23. Re:First on The Oscar-Winning Special Effects of Blade Runner 2049 (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Maybe he has a shutdown / hibernation mode ? I know what you mean though I saw it too..

  24. I'm so bored! on Ask Slashdot: What Is Missing In Tech Today? · · Score: 1

    Anything that Best Buy isn't selling.. Same old tech..

  25. Just to clarify, you will eat 20 carbs a day, make up for the difference in fats plus some protein. The fats have double the calories compared to carb and require no insulin to metabolize like sugar does. Since I started this my chroniclly swollen retina went back to normal and after years of monthly injections, I haven't had one in a year. She also used to complain about seeing cholesterol in my eyes and all year they have been clean. Even if you do this part way, you are looking at much improvement. Also, if you have a lot of extra weight, doing this way of eating full on, you will lose 20lb a month as your body burns its own carbs. There are many personal experiences on the group showing before and after and many discussions with experts who have been doing it for years. I wish you luck and health.
