I don't come here for that stuff in the first place, I don't care for your reply, I don't care for your message or your tone, I'm not here for divisionist political crap. US VS THEM!
The entire internet has become nothing but a battleground the last few years and it's ridiculous, I'm here for/stuff that matters/ catered to/news for nerds/ not news for political science graduates or arts students.
This is slashdot for goodness sakes. Not the daily stormer or huffingtonpost.
What does this have to do with Slashdot in any way? I never thought I would advocate the members having the ability to up or downvote submissions but would someone PLEASE _*_*_*PLEASE*_*_*_ get rid of the editors/moderators / owners who continue to approve this endless political stuff here.
If I wanted to be tugged to the left or the right, I'd have continued posting on twitter or facebook, or some parts of Reddit.
I come here for the lack of that idiocy, for tech news, for comments from seasoned old IT workers with great tales, for futuristic cool stuff.
I AM TIRED OF RUSSIAN STORIES I AM TIRED OF "ALT-RIGHT!!" stories
Tell them for every 10,000 they catch, they get a free Sydney apartment, next 10,000 a Vancouver one and the final 10,000 one in both Melbourne and Auckland!
Yes, it's a joke. Seriously, I've been an Android guy since late version 2 (or was it early 4, I dunno) the progress in this OS has been atrociously bad.
They need to find a way, to make the backend important stuff, roll out to more customers. There should be an option for ALL phones to use 'stock' Android, somehow (even though the UI is awful in stock)
They NEED to stop adding features for a solid 18 months and fix performance, it's not good, at all, still.
I played quite a lot at the start of the release (PS3) and then played some more on the higher def re-release on PS4, but ultimately dropped it for over a year.
I've returned to the game and while I still have a fairly reasonable leveled character and I've actually accomplished most 'normal' missions in the game, I am having real difficulty finding anyone for one of the earlier heists, which is actually a shame.
There actually *IS* a lot of 'single player feeling' (or at least co-op feeling) content in the game, for those who don't want to just shoot each other (think, Left 4 Dead) Many of the missions still have proper voice acting, good comical writing, utilising some of the B tier single player characters (Lester, Lamar).
If you're a fan of the single player game and of the gameplay in-itself, there *IS* enough there to at least push out another...10 to 30 hours of gameplay which feels,/mostly/ like the single player. It's quite fun.
Alas, can't partner up for a heist, at least not without coordinating friends and that is a little difficult as an older, time constrained gamer.
This story never ends, Russia did this, Russia did that, always very little or circumstantial evidence, or something like "up to 6 fake accounts were made, with over 32 followers!"
Unless something significantly concrete, ground slamming and thorough comes out which outright proves some kind of real huge conspiracy, then all this looks like is crazy people on a witch hunt.
FUTHERMORE even if it were real, it's up to people to vote with their conscience / brain, assuming they have one.
On top of this, even IF the Russia email hack Hillary thing is real (or was Russians) the point should be the bloody evidence revealed, don't play the distraction game, if her emails clearly proved she was a liar or trouble or whatever (I don't even know what it was) why are we desperately trying to look the other way?
Note: NOT an American, didn't even vote in your election and I know Trump is an idiot, but the republicans didn't win your election, the fucking democrats lost it by omitting Bernie.
So tired of this political stuff on/., what next? Another in depth article about how every single white male programmer is without question a rapist or something?
I follow quite a few finance people on twitter and at least once a week I see a breakdown of how Tesla are totally doing things entirely wrong, particularly in regards to money management.
I can tell you that every time the stock price goes near 300 Elon will tweet something or have a conference announcing something and it quickly recovers, this seems to happen over and over.
Iâ(TM)m certainly not going to attribute the issues to malice, perhaps inexperience. Honestly it would be good if Tesla is successful, especially a US company, the us could do with a very very successful company actually producing a physical item (rather than just software)
However, Iâ(TM)m not a finance guy, there may or may not be merit, but I can tell you the articles Iâ(TM)ve seen and continue to see, seem to lay it out in a pretty straight forward way. It sounds like itâ(TM)s an ever inflated balloon just burning through cash. That guy needs to seriesly ship some cars and soon. He needs more revenue than just pre orders and stock purchases, like actual sold items. (I have not shorted tesla, Iâ(TM)ve considered it but my understanding is the hype for this company is so ridiculous, it continues to buck logic, apparently, hence the articles)
I'm kind of paraphrasing, but I also recall a list on this site, that Trump may introduce policies that foreign worker visas must be over a certain high wage, ensuring that Americans don't import foreign workers (mainly India) yet pay them peanuts, ensuring that local work is available to Americans.
A sound policy to be honest, I wish my government would do it
Sadly, I think it's got some stuff caught up in patents or something - the demo is very good. I must admit, image wise, we haven't gone far in a long time. I'd like to see a very high compression lossless replacement myself and now that I (occassionally) do some light graphics work, JPG NEEDS to die, as soon as humanly possible, it's awful.
My girlfriend is younger and totally sucked into the idiot youtube vlogging thing, she follows dozens of people daily for their content, some good some bad.
Several of the loopier girls pushed this stupid app, over the past year and for fuck knows what reason, common sense went out the window, because hey "my favourite youtuber who did gender studies and art likes it!!" the videos reeked of pushed content (as most of them do, makeup, the youtubers books, gadgets, sex toys etc)
I said to her "this thing, is a fancy fucking version, of the rythm method, which I was taught in school, nearly 30 years ago, is a load of rubbish" suffice to say I won the argument. God damn, I love youtube and a lot of the content (I paused a RedLetterMedia video to post this) but for goodness sake some of the crap these people claim and sadly the younger generation believe, kills me. Is common sense going to go entirely for the next couple of generations?
I mean, I get it's not an eyesore as some people claim, if it's offshore, but surely the cost of shipping the items out there and running a hefty cable back to land is astronomical? Also servicing?
I'm sick of this ridiculous, endless "THE RUSSIANS DID IT" stuff. The evidence is normally lacking or asinine. The Guardian and particular outlets have an ongoing boogeyman with this Russian stuff, which has reached a point to have become absurd.
"WHITE MALE RUSSIANS DID IT" Etc
We're over it. You've cried wolf, stupidly, one too many times and now, even if you're right, we're probably not going to listen anymore.
I don't live there but I certainly don't blame you for voting for it, I think it was the right decision. I got a British passport through my parents, although considering what has hapenned to the place in the last 40 years since they left it? I kind of feel like the passport I have is mostly worthless.
Snopes is no longer to be fully trusted as they once were unfortunately, their reputation is now tarnished with some (deliberate) inaccuracies for the sake of political correctness.
What does Occams razor say? Was there a huge coordinated group of people, effortlessly injecting fake news, creating stores, posting comments across the entire internet in an attempt to sway massive elections involving millions of people, many of which wouldn't even use a fucking computer.
OR
Did people just vote what they thought best?
The far left have gone off the bloody deep end. Don't tell me, it's *.white *.males fault some how?

$100 USD average bill in Australia? You canâ(TM)t be serious. Nearly double that I would say.

HAHAHAHAHAA!
HAHAHAH!
Oh boy :(
My, how things have changed. Honestly I think I like Microsoft more than Google now.
They are effectively a new phone, there's even plastic back on the front to tear off.
That being said,... 10% saving? Just 10? Good lord that's stingy. Cmon 15/20% for goodness sakes, plus it's an older model now.
Yeah, no, no thanks.
Is there any way to filter tags to get rid of this stuff?
And probably 5 years running too.
Jesus christ.

I have a friend who works inside google who can absoloutely confirm some of the shit that goes on there is pretty similar to this satirical post.
The emails that go round to staff nowadays about politically correct stuff is pretty insane.
I'm kind of paraphrasing, but I also recall a list on this site, that Trump may introduce policies that foreign worker visas must be over a certain high wage, ensuring that Americans don't import foreign workers (mainly India) yet pay them peanuts, ensuring that local work is available to Americans.

Saw one of these in Melbourne casino on every table, they also had a normal camera but perhaps depth or infrared? Was beneficial to them?
It was the newer, large model for the Xbox One.
I mean, I get it's not an eyesore as some people claim, if it's offshore, but surely the cost of shipping the items out there and running a hefty cable back to land is astronomical?
Also servicing?
Is there that little free land in the region?

Etc
We're over it. You've cried wolf, stupidly, one too many times and now, even if you're right, we're probably not going to listen anymore.
All perfect punchlines to awful it jokes.
ITIL.
Agile.
BMC Remedy.
Take your pick.
It was several times better than The Big Bang Theory.
Note: That's still an _incredible_ insult.
Closest thing is Office Space I would say.
If it's vice, it doesn't need to be alt right, just their definition of it. They've really changed over the last decade. Sad outcome of safe spaces.
