Jet.com turning into Walmart's web front end is not a great improvement. Jet's search leaves a LOT to be desired.
Or maybe it's their selection that leaves a lot to be desired. I never bought anything from them because my local dollar store usually has a better selection.
"Maher explained he had famously given President Obama $1 million in 2012 and he never tried to hide it."
There are limits on how much one person can contribute to a candidate, according to the Federal Election Commission. Looks like Maher broke the law. Fat chance of him suffering any consequences, though Obama should probably refund most of that million.
The posters here are also confusing wealth with income. His tax returns will show how much he makes per year (income), not how much he owns (wealth).
Some posters are also exaggerating how many bankruptcies he's had. Even CNN reports exactly FOUR, not six, not seventeen, not dozens. If you take the risks and start a lot of companies, a few are going to fail. That's just part of business. Only the government can get away with failing over and over and over.
The last time I searched for information about me, all I found was that I was a black female college student. I'm not. Lying is a survival tactic online. Do it.
My buying records won't yield much either since I buy online for a whole bunch of different people. I see ads for just about every product sold, so the end result is a wash. You'd have to target me with a shotgun.
If the statement, -- "It's not as if there are thousands of people out there doing this. If you can catch this small number of bad actors we can stop the problem" -- is correct, then the simplest solution would be to track them down and kill them.
Yes, it's harsh, but it's also a perfect warning to the next generation of "bad actors". Do it now while their numbers are small. You robocall, you die.
In my state all you have to do to get a photo ID is let them know and they'll come to your house (or other place of your choice) and make you a free photo ID. And people STILL claim it's a burden! Damn, how are you getting to the polls to vote anyway?
Then explain why the word "democracy" was such a loathsome word to the founders of this country. Back then to call a person a "democrat" was an insult.
Correct. Trump didn't ask the Russians to hack anything at all. The emails may or may not be in the possession of Russians, but if they do have them, they've had them for years.
It doesn't make slashdot look silly. It makes it look biased, which is much worse than silly.
It may work, but the average small gardener can probably do a better job of growing veggies in small raised beds. Most gardeners I know grow things because they love it. They love the feel of the soil and getting their hands dirty. And their gardens usually are about the size of half their backyards. This "robot" seems to be somewhat limited in the size garden it can tend. One person can very easily tend a garden of 100 feet by 100 feet. With a little more effort one person can tend to an acre or more. Add a small tractor and you can grow enough to feed you and your neighbors.
I simply don't answer calls if I don't recognize the number. That's what voicemail is for. If the robot wants to leave a message, let it. I can delete the message when I get around to it.
Forgive the Europeans. They wouldn't know liberty if it bit them on the butt. They don't have a set of balls amongst them. Pansies all. Cupcakes. Overly sensitive little girls.
The EU = a government without a country. Now what could possibly go wrong with that? Uh, maybe tyranny?
I heard him today. What "acts of war" are you talking about?
If the Russians hacked Hillary's email, it was done years ago when she was Secretary of State. Trump's not asking them to hack a live server right now. Hillary's email server is long-gone. She wiped it with a cloth, remember?:)
He fed the press and Democrats (almost one and the same) a bit of bait, and they took it before they knew what was happening. Now the Democrats say the emails are matter of "national security". If they truly are, and the Russians have them, and any of them contain classified material, then Hillary is guilty and should be in prison. She can't have it both ways.
Trump is playing chess while the Democrats are playing checkers. He's a move or two ahead of them and they're bewildered. This is not politics as usual.
I'm really looking forward to the next email release. This call for not just popcorn, but hot wings flavored popcorn!
The very essence of freedom is the freedom to fail. Without that possibility, you're not free and you won't try as hard to do anything. Most successful people have failed many times before hitting a success. It's not how many times you get knocked down, it's how many times you get back up and keep trying.
I kinda get the impression that most people here on slashdot have no clue about how much land is used for growing food. The notion that all food production could be moved indoors is laughable.
Have any of you actually seen a farm? A real farm that grows food on thousands and thousands of acres?

He should have kept it and not painted over it.

Swedish snus is even less dangerous than vaping, and you won't even know the guy next to you is using it. He won't even be spitting tobacco juice!

Prohibit television broadcasts, too.

. . . in the kitchen with a lead pipe.
I'm sorry. I couldn't resist.
Correct. Now if only everybody could figure it out. By now it should be so obvious that a 5 year old could see it.

Ever grow anything?

Even the cameramen don't want to set foot on the ground in Rio.
"Tote a camera out in that filth? No thanks, I'll just operate a drone from inside this clean control booth."
Did the DNC let Hillary set up their email server for them? She's the go-to gal when it comes to email security.
You post on slashdot and you don't know the difference between having a private email account and having a private email server?
Powell did not have his own email server in his home or office.
Turn in your geek card.
Honestly, when I first glanced at the headline I read it as Hillary Clinton Chooses Vagina. It kinda made sense.

Way too tasty to be served at McDonald's.

Since when is free will a "problem"? I know what the writer meant, but it certainly sounds nefarious.
