  1. Most Americans Are Blithering Idiots on Most Americans Think Facebook and Twitter Censor Their Political Views (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    If there's anything we've learned in the last 2 years, it's that most Americans are blithering idiots who probably shouldn't be allowed to cross the streets without a competent adult holding their hand.

  2. This much talk about brands on Go Programming Language Gets A New Logo and Branding (golang.org) · · Score: 1

    Is what failing companioes do. Companies are businesses, not brands.

  3. Giving people what they do not want, no matter how many times they're told what people want. Google you see, knows better than you, what you want.

  4. Have We Learned Nothing From Enron? on Audit Approved of Facebook Policies, Even After Cambridge Analytica Leak (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    If you've hired a "Big Accounting Firm", you've already failed. Alll those sleazeballs that advertise on the Sunday political shows? Do not hire them. Not ever. For anything. People who know, don't hire BDO. Or PWC, or any of the other "Big 4" Sleaze Firms.

  5. Losing? The Author Is Out Of Touch Too on 'Increasingly, People in Silicon Valley Are Losing Touch With Reality' (500ish.com) · · Score: 1

    That ship sailed about 20 years ago dude. You're way too close to the problem to see that. Better late than never I guess.

  6. Sheryl Sandberg is a sleazeball. Do you really think Facebook would have hired her otherwise?

  7. Re:that's correct on Sheryl Sandberg: Users Would Have To Pay To Opt Out of Facebook Ads (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Some of us have never had it to give up. And nothing of value has been lost.

  8. Feature not a bug on Slack Is Shutting Down Its IRC Gateway (slack.help) · · Score: 3, Funny

    Yeah, most of us consider lack of emoji support a feature not a bug.

  9. A client had *months* of problems because of them constantly screwing around with their licensing back end. It needs to stop.

  10. Look in the dictonary on Disney Loses in Redbox Copyright Row (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Disney is the very definition of copyright abuse.

  11. This is among the least bad things the Polish government's done lately.

  12. Mixing up conservative and asshole on Labor Board Says Google Could Fire James Damore For Anti-Diversity Memo (theverge.com) · · Score: 0

    Damore, like most culturally-identified "conservatives" in the USA these days doesn't even know what it means to be conservative. He's not a conservative, he's just an asshole. Please stop using "conservative" when you mean "asshole".

  13. Wouldn't it be better on Google To Kill Off 'View Image' Button In Search · · Score: 1

    To just get rid of Getty's shit from image search? That crap just clutters up the search results anyway.

  14. Re:No. Just... No. Good God, No. on Google Launches AMP For Email To Bring Web-like Actionable Content To Gmail (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 1

    And I guess I'm still waiting for the answer.

  15. An Industry With A Listening Problem on Bill Gates: Tech Companies Inviting Government Intervention (axios.com) · · Score: 1

    Isn't going to take any advice, not even from one of its own who knows a thing or two about "inviting" the government to clean up up your act for you.

  16. No. Just... No. Good God, No. on Google Launches AMP For Email To Bring Web-like Actionable Content To Gmail (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 1

    Tell me again how Google are the good guys. It just gets both funnier and sadder every time someone tries.

  17. Ehtics and Accountability on Ask Slashdot: What Is Missing In Tech Today? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Seriously.

  18. Re:That's the problem, it's a lie. Totally false on Google Chrome Pushes For User Protection With 'Not secure' Label (axios.com) · · Score: 1

    That's Google. Google has a huge problem with facts and truth, and dumbing everything down to the point of being counter-productive.

  19. Is there anyone who does't get it yet? on Uber and Lyft Want You Banned From Using Your Own Self-Driving Car in Urban Areas (siliconbeat.com) · · Score: 1

    Uber, Lyft, et. al. exist soley for the purpose of making money by screwing over society. Period. Full stop. Driving people places is incidental.

  20. Re:Clever way around "blocked from imposing rules" on New York Governor Signs Executive Order To Keep Net Neutrality Rules After FCC's Repeal (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Republicans have been screaming forever that contracts are sacred, and this is a clever way around the problem. Going forward it will be a condition of doing business with the state.

  21. Policeman doesn't even crack the top 10 most dangerous jobs in the USA. What's next, Tree Service worker in danger alerts?

  22. ITYM "Not SIgnificant" on Audacity 2.2.0 Released · · Score: 1

    When the first two items of your "significant update" are about themes, your update is probably *not* significant.

  23. And the point here is? on Android is About To Eclipse Windows as the World's Most-Used Operating System (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Two different operating systems that have virtually no overlap. This isn't telling anyone anything.

  24. You've got to be kidding on VMware Affirms Open Source Commitment By Becoming Gold Linux Foundation Member (betanews.com) · · Score: 2

    If joining the Linux Foundation is what passes for making a commitment to FLOSS, then it's all over for FLOSS.

  25. Re:FCC Complain ID#12-C00422224 on 'The End Of The Level Playing Field' (avc.com) · · Score: 1

    Vint was a shill for spamming when he worked for MCI. His credibility has been gone since long before Google hired him.
