    Chicago has a LOCAL 10.5% sales tax.

  2. "Reputation Management" on GoPro Issues DMCA Takedown Over Negative Review · · Score: 1

    These firms advertise on CNBC and Bloomberg. They go after negative news and information on the web. This is the new customer service.

  3. Really? Mass murder games are cool on Apple Yanks "Sweatshop Themed" Game From App Store · · Score: 1

    But non PC bullshit isn't. Swear to god I want the next fucking asteroid to hit us.

  4. Yes on Do Nations Have the Right To Kill Enemy Hackers? · · Score: 1

  5. What a fucking bitch on SendGrid Fires Employee After Firestorm Over Inappropriate Jokes · · Score: 0

    someone drive a van to her house and blast the speeches of Hitler 24/7 @ 105dB

  6. The reason is states can't tax it enough on Wrong Fuel Chokes Presidential Limo · · Score: 1

    Diesel is taxed differently and states want as many dimes and dollars from you as they can get. So they'd rather not have diesel at all. Similarly my state wants to criminalize BIOdiesel and tax the hell out of hybrids because in the thinking of the state, they are, and I quote "Cheating us out of OUR money!" unquote.

    All Hail North Carolina.

  7. How ironic on BBC Twitter Accounts Hacked By Pro-Assad Syrian Electronic Army · · Score: 1

    The BBC loves Assad AND the other maniacs.

  10. Because flash isn't dead, not yet on Apple Hires Former Adobe CTO Kevin Lynch, Destroyer of iPhones · · Score: 1

    So the obituary for flash is premature.

  11. Not all Lenovo's are Thinkpads on Are Lenovo's ThinkPads Getting Worse? · · Score: 1

    Lenovo sells TPs into the business market mostly. The features you seek are in the Ideapad line.

  12. Re:As opposed to Google on Microsoft To Abandon Windows Phone? · · Score: 1

    I don't think people are rabidly enamored of Google though. We tend to see it for what it is. It's not that MS is good or bad it's their fanbase seems to spit in the face of reality.

  13. The Win8 fanbois desperation goes to 11 on Microsoft To Abandon Windows Phone? · · Score: 1

    They sound positively hysterical here this morning. Of course MS is going to jettison phones and Win8 phone. OF COURSE they are. This is how MS operates. Create a 'buzz' and when it doesn't dominate the world in a year they toss it in the trash.

  14. You clearly have not been on CNN.com recently on Chinese Government Suspected of Unleashing Astroturfers Against Apple · · Score: 0

    There is not a single word printed in their Tech tab that isn't clearly paid propaganda by someone, either for Apple or Samsung.

  15. Most sites see disagreement as trolling on Why Trolls Win With Toxic Comments · · Score: 1

    They confuse the two. If you dare question the doctrine of the 98% majority of any website you are immediately censored for 'trolling'

  16. Of course a leftist site comes out for censorship on Why Trolls Win With Toxic Comments · · Score: 1

    Spend time at Alternet or Huffington Post or DKos and they're hypermoderating like none other while shouting about how they love free speech. Free speech as long as it agrees lockstep with them that is.

  17. Or the Lightning AV adapter for that matter on Raspberry Pi As Hardware Backdoor · · Score: 1

    It was discovered that these adapter cables contain a microcomputer in them. Why not put your backdoor in the cable itself.

  18. Soon you will add it into your home sale price on Smartest Light Bulbs Ever, Dumbest Idea Ever? · · Score: 2

    These bulbs are so expensive that soon you will either remove them all when you move or you will add them into the sale price of your home. It could easily reach a thousand dollars if every bulb were replaced.

  19. Re:Don't you love it on Mass. Bill Would Put Privacy Squeeze on Cloud Apps For Schools · · Score: 1

    Your just the most precious libertarian!

  20. How much could they possibly need on NASA IG Paints Bleak Picture For Agency Projects · · Score: 1

    Obama killed the moon trip the mars trip and most of manned spaceflight altogether. NASA is a self admitted Muslim outreach program now. I mean for all his blather about education how much of that do you need to be part of Obama's infinite cadres of teacherscopsfirefighters?

  21. Almost all of them require rooting on Google Removing Ad-Blockers From Play · · Score: 1

    So it's not much of a loss either way.

  22. Litigation Over Innovation on Apple Bringing Second Lawsuit To Samsung, Won't Wait For Appeal · · Score: 1

    All Hail Tim Cook Maximum Leader of the People's Phone.

  23. If it's Netflix it's crap on Netflix Using HTML5 Video For ARM Chromebook · · Score: 1

    There's a committee of people at Netflix who evaluate all technologies including anything having to do with their website and their guiding principle is "We choose whatever runs the slowest clunkiest and least user friendly. For mobile apps multiply that by 5."

  24. Except of course no one else will on Nuclear Arms Cuts, Supported By 56% of Americans, Would Make the World Safer · · Score: 1

    So while Obama chatters on about reducing or eliminating all American atomic weapons he appears to willfully ignore that Russia, China, France, India, Pakistan never will. And of course neither with North Korea nor Iran. The UK might, in fact there's a pretty good chance they will de-nuclearize because they simply can't afford it nor do they want the political fallout of maintaining it any longer. It's hard to see how this makes anyone safer. It probably doesn't make them less safe either. It's simply a political move for domestic consumption.

  25. Face in a crowd application on Developers Begin Hunt For a Killer App For Google Glass · · Score: 1

    Use the goggles to identify and point out a face in a crowd.
