  1. It's the reddest red line of all red lines on China Confirms New Generation of ICBM · · Score: 1

    Obama has already wagged his finger at them and double dog dared them to defy him. No worries.

  2. Put Obama's website guys on it on Passport Database Outage Leaves Thousands Stranded · · Score: 1

    For another 840 million dollars they can probably get it to the point where only another 150 million is needed to get it running.

  3. No no no no on French Provider Free Could Buy US Branch of T-Mobile · · Score: 1

    International carriers have already said that the spectrum allocation in the US makes turning T-Mobile into a good efficient high quality low cost carrier like the rest of the world is impossible. Also this French group doesn't have the cash to buy T-Mobile and there's no indication they can leverage T-Mobile even more than it is now to buy it. No, I'm sorry but Obama's FCC will get their wish which is to let T-Mobile die so Verizon and AT&T can pick up their customers for almost no cost. Sprint's going out of the retail branded business in a year or two so that will leave 2 carriers in the US to jack prices to the sky and make service even worse.

  8. Until someone screams it's haram on UK To Allow Driverless Cars By January · · Score: 1

    Because what matters in the UK is appeasing the angriest craziest segment of the Muslim population.

  9. Sounds fair on Jesse Jackson: Tech Diversity Is Next Civil Rights Step · · Score: 1

    Just lower the standards until all the black people are hired. Then lower them so more for all the illiterate Mexicans. And so on.

  10. You mean having a trillion apps isn't wonderful? on Is the App Store Broken? · · Score: 1

    We were all told we'd be billionaires. Oh well.

  11. Every single day on Comcast Confessions · · Score: 0, Troll

    Snatch up one Comcast and one Time Warner exec. Saw their heads off on YouTube.

  12. "Liberals" won't ever be happy on Gaza's Only Power Plant Knocked Offline · · Score: 0

    Until there's another holocaust.

  14. Could have been worse on Man Booted From Southwest Flight and Threatened With Arrest After Critical Tweet · · Score: 0

    Could have been physically assaulted by one of Minneapolis' many Somalian cab drivers who consider it a religious duty to abuse, threaten and assault all infidels.

  15. Time Warner in NC is actually the devil on Two Cities Ask the FCC To Preempt State Laws Banning Municipal Fiber Internet · · Score: 1

    Time Warner in NC typically secures their monopoly in NC by paying a bribe to the local governments in the form of an 'access fee'. Now some of those cities and towns are suffering the backlash of unrestricted price gouging from Time Warner. Consumers are in open revolt as service pricing in NC seems to jump >10% every 6 months and service quality has fallen off a cliff PARTICULARLY on the internet side of the service. It's third world awful and getting worse. Days long outages where the highest level of technical support's answer is, and I quote "I don't know and there's nothing anyone can do about it" unquote (actual answer I got from L2's management yesterday) have become routine. Billing 'errors' that result in huger overages are rampant and record keeping is nonexistent eg, Time Warner's new excuse is to claim they can't/won't address problems because it's and again I quote "your modem" unquote. Which is isn't because we ALL had to stand in line at the local 'service center' for up to FOUR Hours to get it handed to us BY Time Warner.

    So here's what has to happen. Every day, every single day, snatch up one management or higher Time Warner employee and crucify and set them on fire and put it on YouTube. Every day, grab one and kill them until either they change their business model or they run out of people.

  16. So how will they position it? on Comcast Carrying 1Tbit/s of IPv6 Internet Traffic · · Score: 1

    Super DUPER mega EXTREEEEEEM internet service for only $299.99/month when bundled with their other services?

  17. Outsourcing the Gestapo on Man Booted From Southwest Flight and Threatened With Arrest After Critical Tweet · · Score: 1

    I rather like the idea of an incompetent ideologically driven gaggle of idiots in government outsourcing the Gestapo to private industry. Has MSNBC blamed Bush yet?

  18. Nuke the fucking White House on The Secret Government Rulebook For Labeling You a Terrorist · · Score: 1

  19. Windows Godzilla ! on Microsoft's CEO Says He Wants to Unify Windows · · Score: 4, Funny

    Only 1.5 TB and it will run on ANYTHING (with 8x8 core processors and 32GB of RAM). Of course it still comes in 24 different variations that all licensed differently.

  22. Drown out the wheezing rhinos on New Toyota Helps You Yell At the Kids · · Score: 1

    And the hum of their Rascal scooters.

  23. no you are wrong on Why My LG Optimus Cellphone Is Worse Than It's Supposed To Be · · Score: 1

    Phones suck in ways that make them suck, not in any specific way by design. Quality is shit because it's shit borne of laziness and cheapness and not the extra amount of money they'd have to spend planning out their shittiness. Cheap shit phones have no reason to try to upsell you because those are two different markets. The shit market and the poser market. And never the twain shall meet.

    What IS interesting though is the razor thin differences in the quality between the shit phones and the more expensive phones. More expensive phones spend all their money on 'me too' features. Not quality.

  24. Re:Make it a law on California In the Running For Tesla Gigafactory · · Score: 0

    Or simply call for the state version of nationalization, tax it 100% and give away the cars for free.
