  1. Re:Not a risk anyway on India's Transport Minister Vows To Ban Self-Driving Cars To Save Jobs (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 0

    That's outdated thinking. India has come a LONG way in the past 20 years. For example some cars will actually stop at red lights, ... on major intersections, ... during certain times of the day.

    They still shit all over their streets (literally). You still see dead bodies float down the river constantly. The country barely has running water, most of which still isn't clean and the sewer system is still basically non-existent, and you think they'll have self driving cars any time in the near future?

  3. I blame skinny jeans. I've been in boxers and loose pants for decades and have no issues. I see these young beta males running around in skin tight jeans and I just figure they never want kids or something.

    A person that truly believes in their religion isn't going to go and deny it, because adhering to their religion is more important than adhering to the laws and/or rules of this world.

    Perhaps you've never heard of a guy named Saint Peter, who denied knowing Jesus Christ three times because he was afraid of the laws and/or rules of this world.

    See, John 18:13-27

    But then he was crucified upside down for not renouncing him. What's your point?

    I'm an atheist so I really don't give a shit anyway.

  5. I swore I'd never give them another penny so long as I lived, then they went and bought DirecTV before my contract was over. Once it's done I'm out, never again. Those cock suckers can rot.

  6. Re:On MSPaint... on Microsoft Paint To Be Killed Off After 32 Years (theguardian.com) · · Score: 2

    I have Photoshop. I still use MS Paint for screenshots. Low bloat and launches instantly.

    Why? Windows comes with "Snipping Tool" specifically for this. Why use a full on MS Paint or Photoshop to do it?

    You wouldn't have been counted as unemployed because you were a student. That pretty much negates the rest of your post in it's entirety.

    Every single person McCarthy exposed was later proven to be a Russian spy. Every. Single. One.

  12. Re:This is the absolute best effect of Trump elect on Under Pressure, Western Tech Firms Including Cisco and IBM Bow To Russian Demands To Share Cyber Secrets (reuters.com) · · Score: 0

    McCarthy thought there were about 20 to 30 Russian spies working int he US government. When the USSR fell and their files opened up we learned they had closer to 300 spies in extremely high places in the government.

    McCarthy wasn't just right, he was actually less paranoid than he should have been. Yet today, despite all the proof to the contrary leftists still use his name like he was the boogeyman, all because Hollywood got exposed as the anti-American shit stains they were/are.

    I'd really like to see some sort of certification that focuses on basic skills in Wireshark, Nessus, NMAP, and a solid understanding in DNS.

    This is the CEH(https://www.eccouncil.org/programs/certified-ethical-hacker-ceh/) and OSCP(https://www.offensive-security.com/information-security-certifications/oscp-offensive-security-certified-professional/)

    CISSP is a pile of shit. Its a management certificate, nothing else. A monkey can pass that test and judging by the CISSP's I know, frequently do.

    Thinking UBI is even remotely possible, feasible or a good idea on any level makes you a fucking moron. Period. End of discussion. Take your utopian bullshit and shove it up your fucking ass.

    Right over your head. The TV analogy is wrong on every level. Google is collecting YOUR information and selling it. The TV is simply placing ads before your eyes. How the fuck do you not understand that? I mean it's like 3rd grade level deduction.

    That has no barring on the discussion. The point is that Chrome has won. Its rendering engine is used everywhere. Moving to Vivaldi is still using Chrome.

    2 gigs for text in a window parsed by a browser that's more complex than the kernel of the OS you're using. Look dipshit, I know you can't put 1+1 together and come up with 2 but most people are intelligent enough to realize that a browser which can pull down a multi-megabit web page and parse + display it instantly will have a significant amount of over head. Memory is cheap. Buy some. If you can't afford it, you're a McDonalds burger flipping scrub that should probably get some job skills before posting on slashdot and making a fucking fool of yourself.

    UBI is communism by another name. Pure and simple. We are already overloaded with Social Security and that's only for old people that eventually die off in a few short years and these fucking idiots want to add the rest of the country on top of that. It's like idiot children that think they can have anything in the store they want because mommy and daddy pay for it. They have no idea what the real value of money is or in Zucks case, doesn't care.

  25. You just proved his point though. If a realtor is making millions on a single home sale then the home buyers, sellers and builders are being fucked over.
