  1. Feeding them poison reduces it 100%

  2. Careful what you say on Adobe is Considering Whether it Wants To Design Its Own Chips (axios.com) · · Score: 1

    But the way this is brought up and posed it's obvious this CTO is likely your average clueless Slashdot user. Let's not hurt his feelings.

  3. I guess that 2.5B for Solar City was petty change.

  4. Missed opportunity. on Microsoft's Moving Xbox Ad Was the Best Thing About the Super Bowl (cnet.com) · · Score: 2

    The kid should have been shown killing someone at in Fortnite and then a cut screen of Ninja screaming hacker. It's not like he was afraid to cash in do silly cameos.

  5. PCgamer. No surprise they would put this up.

  6. A bit lax on any real details on iRobot Unveils Terra, a Roomba Lawn Mower (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 2

    It looks small, whats the hp/kw rating? Run time per charge, max height of grass it can handle, and scores of other things. Looking at it it doesn't seem like it'll handle more than about a .5" of cut depth so you would have to set it to run every other day, if not every day depending on the weather. Which would be fine for it head out every day when I'm at work except that now you're talking a ton of hours wear and tear on it. My roomba vacuum runs most days and after a year or so it's definitely showing the mileage. And that's nothing like cutting a lawn.

  7. I can't say I miss the days of shuffling through dozens of cases to find where the game you really want to play is. I get the arguments for having them, but for me the advantages of a downloaded game far exceed them. Especially as I share between my sons and my own xbox account, essentially cutting the cost of multiplayer games in half. Sure it's nice to be able to sell a bunch every now and then, but not worth the hassle for the most part.

  8. Not really the point. on Online Piracy Can Be Good For Business, Researchers Find (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    You created, you should be able to decide how it's consumed. If it costs you money in the long run that's on you. It's really that simple.

  9. It's called the big picture. on A Tiny Screw Shows Why iPhones Won't Be 'Assembled in USA' (nytimes.com) · · Score: 2

    It's not about Apple making products in the US. The point is for the supply chain to develop to support it, which in the end creates far more jobs than a single Apple plant that does final assembly.

  10. Re:Uhm, no on Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey Says Biometrics May Defeat Bots (duo.com) · · Score: 0

    Being an old fart, nobody will miss you if you can't post any more.

  11. Really shouldn't blame Solo on Is Disney's Star Wars Franchise In Trouble? (cosmicbook.news) · · Score: 2

    I think it wrongfully took the heat and backlash for the wretched Last Jedi. Last Jedi was pretty wretched and I thought Solo superior.

  12. Re:Can't force but... on Feds Can't Force You To Unlock Your iPhone With Finger Or Face, Judge Rules (forbes.com) · · Score: 1

    Except not really if the evidence that they see on your phone merely sends them in the direction to obtain it through other means. Take your address book or snap contact list for instance. It's not evidence on it's own, but now they have a list of people to go to to obtain evidence.

    If they can't unlock and use it anyway there's no reason not to go through it.

  13. Re:Correlation is NOT causation on There's No Such Thing as a Safe Tan (theconversation.com) · · Score: 1

    The T-Rex ate you long before you caught a bad case of the Cancer.

    Or use the finger prints that they had no choice but to have taken when they booked you.

  15. Seems overly complex on Giant Plastic Trap Breaks, Gets Towed Back To Land (npr.org) · · Score: 1

    The currents determine where things go. And there's a giant trash heap sitting there. Send some barges and scoop the crap up and send them back. The currents will bring the vast majority of it to you.

  16. Re:I do, even in the snow. on Even More Americans Have Stopped Biking To Work (usatoday.com) · · Score: 1

    Forget about that, the homeless camp is gonna take his bike and rape his ass at some point when they realize he sees them as entertaining.

  17. That would be how much people would pay if Facebook were to freeze all accounts until they pay a one time or other fee. My guess is the number would be much lower.

  18. If it's labeled AI.

  19. Re:Archiving tumblr is stupid. on Tumblr Blocked Archivists Just Before Starting the NSFW Content Purge (techdirt.com) · · Score: 1

    I disagree. It's a massive amount of volume that doesn't really depict the real world at all. The real world looks nothing like what these 'influencers' or whatever depict.

  20. How does this fit in for home internet? on AT&T Opens 5G Network in 12 US Cities, Announces Pricing For First 5G Mobile Device and Service (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 1

    I don't care about increasing my cell phone, I want to ditch cable internet. And this either doesn't seem to address that market or at 15G max for $70 certainly doesn't meet the need.

  21. Re: One big lawsuit waiting to happen on Former NASA Engineer Designed Glitter Bomb Trap To Avenge Amazon Delivery Theft Victims (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    This begs the question as to whether they were really guilty of anything. He created a device that was meant to be 'stolen'. I don't remember specifics but there were people found guilty a few years ago of leaving their garage open and ambushing people who came to steal things. They were found guilty of a pretty serious crime, forget exactly what. Now in that case they were using guns so a bit of an escalation. But I think this isn't quite so cut and dry.

  22. Honestly I'm a bit surprised he had that many packages stolen, but we aren't given a frame of reference either. At least around here it seems a rarity, I've never had it done to me and haven't even heard of anyone I personally know having it done to him. Yet this guy seems to have had a half dozen taken.

  23. Why do you find it acceptable that we live in a society where you can't leave a package on your doorstep?

  24. The crazy part in my opinion on People Are Harassing Waymo's Self-Driving Vehicles (usatoday.com) · · Score: 1

    You will soon have laws that specifically protect these vehicles, essentially elevating them to a status similar to people. Obviously the rules change if there are people in them, but if there aren't then they are just property. And I should be able to hinder its progress as much as possible as long as it doesn't cause harm to property or actual people.

  25. Re:Relevant to me on 22-Year-Old Google Engineer Dies At His Work Terminal (nypost.com) · · Score: 1

    Not when they trace this back to you and see how little you seem to care about the deaths of your fellow employees.
