  1. A lot of deaths lately on RIP Alan Rickman, AKA Hans Gruber, Severus Snape (variety.com) · · Score: 2

    We've lost Lemmy, Angus Scrimm (The Tall Man from Phantasm), David Bowie, and now Alan Rickman.

    The world is changing, quickly.

    Be afraid, be very afraid!

  2. 1991 Packard Bell 386SX/25 on Can Your Hardware Top 18 Years and Ten Months? (theregister.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    I've got a working one of those, even put in the 387 math co-processor and maxxed the RAM to 16 MB. However, I can't use it cause the hard drive died and I can't find any working IDE hard drives small enough for it to communicate with.

  3. Re:Keyboards? on Can Your Hardware Top 18 Years and Ten Months? (theregister.co.uk) · · Score: 1, Funny

    It will help if, after picking your ass, you wash your hands instead of just holding them up to your nose.

    Mine's a youngster then, only 34 years old. Damn time has passed.

  5. Re:Climate Change on Cold Fusion and the Reputation Trap (aeon.co) · · Score: 1

    Huh? Another Earth without a carbon-spewing species on it would be a perfect control. Things that happen on both could be attributed to natural-only effects, while things that only happen on the populated Earth could be attributed to the carbon-spewing species.

    I'm putting my money on you being the moron.

    Wow, just wow...

    Between dumb people thinking [insert sky wizard here] will save the planet, and dumb ass money-hungry republicans saying money is more important than survival, we a pretty well fucked in the long term.

    Pascal's wager used to be good logic and effectively neutral (If there is no god, it gives me no issue believing in one, because of the small chance that god does exist is worth the theoretical payoff), because a hands-off "let god fix it" approach couldn't make any difference, but now Pascal's wager has become dangerous. No longer can "ignore everything and just let things take their course" can now cause an extinction-level event wiping out all of our great granchildren. A fools game to not take seriously the threat of atto-tons of CO2 being released into the atmosphere.

    It's a very serious existential threat to our whole species. The environment is already giving us a pretty serious distant early warning. Time to become a grown-up species and be responsible beings that realize our tiny blue dot is our only home in this monstrous universe.

  8. Re:Private sector will always do it better. on Marco Rubio and Other Senators Move To Block Municipal Broadband (theintercept.com) · · Score: 1

    I think it's time to turn the old right-wing mantra on it's head. From now on it's "Corporations aren't the solution, they are the problem!"

    And I think that's far more true.

  9. Re:Private sector will always do it better. on Marco Rubio and Other Senators Move To Block Municipal Broadband (theintercept.com) · · Score: 1

    Very true, so glad there are other who think the same. Getting disheartened seeing the brainwashed spouting their free market bullshit.

    No shit, sick pro-corporate brainwashed astro-turf drivel. Makes me sad, these are the kind of people selling out this country to the lowest bidder.

  11. Re:Municipal WiFi was such a success on Marco Rubio and Other Senators Move To Block Municipal Broadband (theintercept.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Oh my god, what are you, some kind of corporate astro-turfer?

    Megacorps are the problem, government is the last defense of the people against the megacorps turning everything into virtual slaves.

  12. Re:Municipal WiFi was such a success on Marco Rubio and Other Senators Move To Block Municipal Broadband (theintercept.com) · · Score: 1

    That should say "What crap are you babbling? Megacorps are destroying this COUNTRY, yet you blame government? Drink some more koolaid you mindless moron."

    Good post, would mod up if I had points.

    Your flaw: Corporations only exist by the consent of the government, thus the people. Thus you are the imbecile.

  20. Finally something interesting! on Hospitals Can 3D Print a Patient's Vasculature For Aneurysm Pre-Op Practice (computerworld.com) · · Score: 1

    This for the first time is a solid application of 3D printing, rather than the over-hyped gimmicks of the 3D printing enthusiasts, we are getting something that directly saves lives. Awesome!

  21. Optional Training Program (OPT)

  22. Re:Wait, Google and Apple don't do this? on Microsoft Brings Its Embrace-Extend-Extinguish Game To K-12 Schools? · · Score: 1

    Agreed. This Microsoft hate is just out-of-date cultural inertia. Microsoft of today is a much different beast than it was 20 years ago when they deserved it.

    Apple is far more evil these days.

  23. Re:Running power through wires shock!! on Misusing Ethernet To Kill Computer Infrastructure Dead · · Score: 3, Funny

    90% of people who use the term "best practice" are idiots that couldn't independently think their way out of a wet bag.

    And what guarantee do you have that the "source code" you are referring to is at all the same code that is in the wild? You can't prove it, just doing damage control. Typical Macdroid...
