  1. But it will be against Sharia on Volvo Plans To Have Self-Driving Cars In Swedish City of Gothenburg By 2017 · · Score: 1

    And Sweden's going Sharia before 2017

  2. Increasingly dangerous? on Property Managers Use DNA To Sniff Out Dog Poop Offenders · · Score: 1

    Compared to what?

  3. Progressives will treat on China's First Lunar Lander To Launch Today; Manned Mission Planned By 2030 · · Score: 1

    Progressives will of course tweet how much they hate China's treatment of Moon Labor....on their Moon built iPhones.

  4. We need an ALWAYS OUTRAGED zone on No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service — and No Google Glass, Either · · Score: 1

    We simply need to establish zones of permanent furious retarded outrage about everything. No Phones, no gum, no perfume, no Google, no kids, no dogs, no outside food or drink, no talking, no blacks no Jews no Irish, no gays, no Muslims, no radios, no headphones, no electric cars, no non electric cars, and a million other things the same fucking retarded shitheads wake up every day screaming about and wishing they were dead.

  5. Because HR people are morons on Ask Slashdot: Why Are Tech Job Requirements So Specific? · · Score: 1

    Because they ask the manager what they want and the manager who's also a moron simply cuts and pastes what their software and hardware inventory are. The HR moron passes it along without a single worry or care because let's face facts, as your company throws thousands of employees into the street the last people to go, if they ever go at all are the HR people.

  6. Obamacare is going to be AWESOME on Disabled Woman Denied Entrance To US Due To Private Medical Records · · Score: 1, Interesting

    If you like your HIPAA regulations....well, errr, fuck you.

  7. D minus is the new A on SSD Manufacturer OCZ Preparing For Bankruptcy · · Score: 1

    Toshiba won't improve anything. They don't have to. People expect crap and crap is what they get. They'll probably just pack an SSD case with SD cards and call it a day.

  8. If it's the EU on European Health Levels Suddenly Collapsed After 2003 and Nobody Is Sure Why · · Score: 1

    They're probably blaming the Jews.

  9. If they really wanted to do something. on NY Police Get Tall SUVs To Combat Texting While Driving · · Score: 1

    Revoke their driver's license for life, fine them a hundred thousand dollars and put them in prison for 5 years. This is the same nonsense you hear every time someone's given their seventh DUI and whatnot. If anyone actually wanted to do something they'd come down with the hammer of God. But of course they won't. Personally I don't believe texting is as big a deal as the soccer mommy squadron screams it is. But if they really wanted to see it stamped out they'd get all those people off the road for life. Pol Pot wasn't entirely wrong, he just had bad media advice.

  10. Silly question on Ask Slashdot: Are We Older Experts Being Retired Too Early? · · Score: 1

    Of course they are. Been than way for the decades I've been involved. Companies are more up front about it now and it's barely against the law to fire people BECAUSE they're over 35 now. Companies, at least US ones want a workforce, such as it is, of people fresh out of school who stay for 3 years then bolt. And every year they want to pare even that population down by 5% or more so that between turnover and 'productivity' none of them will have a US based workforce at all soon.

  11. Rich hippies don't ride the train on Failed Software Upgrade Halts Transit Service · · Score: 1

    They pilot their solar powered dirigibles.

  12. Economic break even point. on Electric Cars: Drivers Love 'Em, So Why Are Sales Still Low? · · Score: 1

    translated into dollars per mile over the entire time one owns one.

  13. So bascially they're all terrible on Cloud Storage Comparison: Benchmarking From Afar · · Score: 1

    We knew that already of course most of it depends on your connection which can be truly awful as well.

  14. Re:Cloud... on Cloud Storage Comparison: Benchmarking From Afar · · Score: 1

    Not with an 8 digit user number you haven't.

  15. Just put booze interlocks on all cars on Texas Drivers Stopped At Roadblock, Asked For Saliva, Blood · · Score: 1

    Hell put them on everyone's front door in case they try to GOWI (going outside while impaired)

  16. They're the people that cooperated with the NSA on How the NSA Is Harming America's Economy · · Score: 1

    In the first place. So screw them if you feel that way about it.

  17. This article brought to you by insurance companies on Why Letting Your Insurance Company Monitor How You Drive Can Be a Good Thing · · Score: 1

    It's an awful idea because their rates are still their rates. What happens when these purported discounts go the other way because of where you live or where you drive or that one time you were speeding.

    What happens if they decide that you drive too much on the highway or in other states or in Canada or Mexico?

    What happens when they realize that drive too much at night when most accidents and DUIs occur?

    What happens if they track that you make too many stops and they assume you're running your own gypsy cab?

    Nah it's bullshit. Rates are supposed to be based on outcomes not on insurance companies trying to micromanage those outcomes.

  18. Time for the OATMEAL EFFECT on Woman Facing $3,500 Fine For Posting Online Review · · Score: 1

    Crush that website w.o. mercy. Kill them all.

  19. Let me list the ways on Ask Slashdot: What Makes You Uninstall Apps? · · Score: 2

    When endless 'upgrades' are nothing more than adding more tie ins to every god damn social media site out there.

    When the ads become too intrusive.

    On the laptop when they nag to go to the 'pro' version, even once.

    When the underlying website is pure nuclear bullshit to start with, like Netflix.

    When running a utility provides no real world benefit.

  20. We already know on FCC App Lets Android Users Measure Mobile Broadband Speed · · Score: 1

    It's shit megabytes. This is America where we're 15 years behind everyone else and it costs more.

  21. Tatted up methhead data centers on Sears To Convert Old Auto Centers Into National Chain of Data Centers · · Score: 1

    Oh you mean replace them all with 4 foreigners. Yeah that'll work.

  22. Watson, how IBM employees are in the US? on IBM To Offer Watson Services In the Cloud · · Score: 1

    Uh.......zero?

  23. When is the first tweet from spacewalk? on Sochi Olympic Torch Taken On Historic Spacewalk · · Score: 1

    Because nothing screams success like tweeting.

  24. Diamond encrusted carbomb on First Arab Supercar Costs $3.4 Million, Has Diamond-Encrusted Headlights · · Score: 1

    For the glint eyed fanatical retard who has almost everything.

  25. This post brought to you on Twitter's Fake Followers Watching IPO Closely · · Score: 1
