There is no way in hell that the cable companies are going to give you for channels that you actually want for twenty bucks a month. They already scam a lot more than that from a lot of people without giving them anything that they want at all.
I spotted that too and was about to post about it, although 25M doesn't really work with current exchange rates either. Just another example why being a Slashdot editor is such a great job, no physical labor and no mental labor. Slashdot. how can I get a job like that? I promise to not do any better and raise expectations.
The government just wants their cut, nothing is going to change. This is basically a go ahead for Comcast to keep cheating their customers. At best it tells them to find more creative ways to cheat the customers.
The real BS here is the 2030 target date, which gives almost certainty that other things will come up that need the money more and so any money already spent on a 2030 launch will be wasted, we have seen this over and over with government run projects.
Obama is already importing hundreds of thousands of Muslim refuges from Syria and other countries where they don't want to stay and correct the problems there but instead expect us to send in more American soldiers to clean up their mess. We already have hundreds of thousands of homeless American veterans, but Obama is more concerned about providing free homes for mid-east Muslims, many of whom have radical views against America or want to impose Sharia law on Americans, than he is for American veterans who have served this country.
The obvious solution here is to not wait until 2030 but to start sending these refugees to Mars right away. On Mars they can have their dream world with Sharia law. And if we are smart enough to not give them weapons that they can destroy us with from Mars (although I doubt that we are), this would silence all the alarmist wack jobs who think it is a bad idea to just open this countries boarders to our enemies. Some might say that Mars doesn't have the resources to support all these refugees, but I say "Allah will provide!"
Apple thought that they could just screw their loyal customers. But now with a class action suit the class action lawyers will make millions and the consumers will get $100 coupons that they can only use towards future Apple purchases (and then the cycle will repeat).
This is Slashdot. There is no expectation that editors will even read what they post, let alone check for accuracy. Based on seeing the same editors post error riddled stuff over and over, they are never fired either. If any do get fired, I want the job next. I've always wanted a job that involved no manual labor and no mental labor.
Well, Al Gore gave the world the Internet. It just seems right that Facebook, Amazon, Alphabet, IBM, and Microsoft would come together to do this for Al.
Yup, this is such good news. I was very concerned that we were heading into another ice age. Now, thanks largely to the efforts of Dick Cheney and his co-conspirators, we may avoid this tragedy and enjoy a more tropical climate.
According to the UK's leading law enforcement agency, kids modding games may lead to them becoming programmers. I sure hope that they can take action to prevent this. Maybe U.K.cops should start carrying guns, that seems to work pretty well over here.
Yea, it will all be produced by windmills, the week after we all have personal jetpacks. But if you look at the reality it is that people keep making things like hydrogen powered trains and cars and all of that hydrogen is being produced by a dirty, wasteful process of breaking down natural gas by partial burning. The net effect is more carbon in the air and supposedly more global worming (not a typo). The train and the windmills will be underwater long before hydrogen is mass produced cleanly. Not that I'm saying that is a bad thing.....
This is a total crock. You have to also look at how the Hydrogen is being produced. And not some theoretical but not real theory of how it could be made by electrolysis, but the real truth of how it is being made by a very dirty and wasteful process that breaks down natural gas and captures some hydrogen in the process. The truth of the matter is it would be much cleaner overall to just run the train on liquid natural gas. This Hydrogen bullshit is all smoke and mirrors with even more carbon being released into the atmosphere.
No, it doesn't "just" grant Congress the power. It grants Congress the exclusive power. Study your history. It was put in there to avoid the problem of States and even private banks issuing their own currency, which was a problem at the time.
They have become an alternative currency. If you want to test that, just try buying an airline ticket with for all debts public and private U.S. currency rather than a credit card and see how intimate the random body cavity search becomes.
Look again. it says "...owned by Gery Shalon, an Israeli man...".
So this is a complete waste of time. We all know that, because of "The Covenant" that a Jew can do whatever he wants and God will always side with him against all others.
Slashdot Mirror
Are you talking about the Al who won the 2000 election but had it given to the Bush idiot child by the Supremes?
Oh you environmental wack jobs. Next you'll be saying that maybe sending out asbestos lined boxes to return the phones wasn't a good idea.

You mean some people don't watch all of those shopping channels??? Damn it if I'm paying for them then I'm damn well gonna watch them!

Which should we blame, poor land management or climate change? Hmmm, climate change is popular, lets go with that.

As the robot cleans your dirty floor, it is using sensors combined with a camera to map your home, and send that information directly to the N.S.A..
There, I fixed it for you. And you wondered why the Romba 980 needed Wi-Fi!
Trump had a loss on his taxes and now he is following the law to not overpay future taxes? How dare he!
We are busy importing hundreds of thousands of unscreened people from areas where measles still runs rampant. This little blip will not last.
Well, Al Gore gave the world the Internet. It just seems right that Facebook, Amazon, Alphabet, IBM, and Microsoft would come together to do this for Al.
Yea, just because it was completely misrepresented is no reason to complain. The paying customer still got something and that's all that matters.
Oh, so now its wrong to cheat people who have already submitted to other forms of abuse through Digital Rights Manglement?
So he's going to use same slogan for the mission to Mars as for the self driving Tesla?

No one here actually reads the articles. Are you suggesting the the Slashdot editors are anything less than competent?
