Am I understanding the correctly? The original article had comments disabled (because 6+ months ago, seems reasonable) so this person posted here with a link to what they were responding to? Is it a person, even?
I've found that the folks who aren't big stars that make money in music are session musicians and I think you would agree that is a rare talent. Folks that can reliably read, interpret, and perform a piece can make serious dough. Especially now that a person can build an Abbey Road-quality studio for a paycheck - no travelling required.
I swear this is the first one of these comments I've ever made... but why in the world is this on Slashdot? Reddit, sure, but I don't see how this is either news for nerds or stuff that matters. Posts about big elections and stuff - sure I understand, that's something a lot of people care about. This is something that belongs in a high school newspaper.
USA also needs to BAN Robot cars & trucks because once you replace all jobs with robots - what do you do with several of millions of surplus humans
These "surplus humans" have their time and energy freed to perform tasks better suited for humans. Solving more pressing issues than getting shit from point A to point B.
If you're gonna say dumb shit like this, at least have the decency to put your name on it. Notice I'm putting my name on this statement calling you a dumb shit. Yep - you and the thing you said are both dumb as shit. Change my mind.
Trump is the only person who believes this, despite having received copious information to the contrary.
It's bizarre to me that so many seemingly intelligent people don't see through the man's transparent personality. EGO drives all of his decisions. He's a living example of everything that people mock about "doing science wrong", starting at his preconceived notions and working backwards to identify data points that confirm his position.
That you would call accurate, reasoned assessments of the man "potshots" is interesting. The guy is a dangerous clown who has cultivated an image of success despite all evidence to the contrary.
If we evaluated his actions in a vacuum - knowing not that he was President Donald Trump, a man who has spent his entire life crafting an image - but just someone who had suffered the string of business failures that he has and found themselves in the most powerful position on earth. We would be rightly terrified. This person clearly has done nothing in their life that would warrant putting them in such an important position. Yet... here we are.
Call me deranged all you like. The man is a delusional, walking, talking catastrophe of a human being.
You do realize Hannity is a spineless blowhard, right? No change in political philosophy, no change in the situation at large, yet fully supports the Trump administration having open talks with North Korea while he vehemently opposed the Obama administration doing so. The basis for his argument hasn't changed, only the party in power. His position on Russia and Putin doesn't matter because it's not based in principle or philosophy, it's based on whatever he's feeling at the moment. None of the above fits with what any reasonable person would classify as "conservatism". Like y'all don't know who the fuck Edmund Burke is or worse, don't care.
It's almost like this quaint notion of political philosophy isn't even a factor and it's just people spouting bullshit on television for a paycheck?
How's that for a "realization"? The seemingly purposeful "dumbing-down" of modern society would be terribly painful if it wasn't so goddamned entertaining...or at least that's what I keep telling myself.
Very similar to how executing a single innocent person abrogates any authority regarding capital punishment. You can't say its a deterrent - executing innocent people is just a dick move.
So if we have no moral authority and it doesn't achieve the desired outcome, why do we do it? Cuz we're dicks, man. Dicks and arseholes, always a winning combo.

They don't know whether or not customer data was exposed. When you give up the keys to the kingdom, logs can't be trusted.
GSLB breaks your stupid idea.
Summarized as "milking both sides of the cow".
Google and Netflix pay for pipes to their data centers just like everyone else. ISPs DO NOT WANT them to build out the last mile.
Don't forget that Heroin was Bayer pharma's trademarked name for their diacyetylmorphine preparation.

$$$$$ in contracts between US companies and Chinese firms would be a big reason in my view.

First paragraph, third sentence. Read again.
That game has been out forever, it's called Nuclear War and just like in Civilization, Gandhi is a fuckin' dick.

Commenting so I can undo the accidental positive moderation I gave your uninformed comment.

Say what you will...the record company lawyers have foresight if nothing else.
That's entry with intent to commit a crime aka burglary.

Hedley!
Goddamn.... still don't understand the 14th Amendment after so many real-life examples are paraded in front of you every day?
I don't think there are enough data points to conclusively determine whether capitalism is better than any other economic system.
I thought they used nuclear power for these things? If they don't they should.

We've executed people we _know_ are innocent. What of them? Just collateral damage so folks like you can enact your revenge fantasies?

They wouldn't play it if people didn't watch it and sit through the ads...
