  1. Re:Bitcoin on Mt. Gox Knew It Was Selling Phantom Bitcoin 2 Weeks Before Collapse · · Score: 2

    Hint to you: Don't kite checks.

  2. Re:Bitcoin on Mt. Gox Knew It Was Selling Phantom Bitcoin 2 Weeks Before Collapse · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Pedantry of that nature indicates you already know you have no real argument.

  3. Re:What is a "vocational school?" on Is the New "Common Core SAT" Bill Gates' Doing? · · Score: 2

    There is no post-industrial environment. Not here or anywhere else. All of our machinery doesn't magically fix itself or design newer versions. Pipe-dreams don't make for good social agendas. In fact, social agenda aren't good.

  4. Re:Becuz on Is the New "Common Core SAT" Bill Gates' Doing? · · Score: -1, Troll

    It isn't the kids who "are stupid", it's the tests. Ever read the damned questions? They aren't written appropriately and in many cases are blatant political quests. Tell what percentage of boxes are shaded - with no shaded boxes? Abe Lincoln was a Democrat? Just two, there are many.

  5. Kramer and Friend don't have $50 billion on Environmentalists Propose $50 Billion Buyout of Coal Industry - To Shut It Down · · Score: 2

    As always, these plans call on **other people's** money to do what their little hearts desire. And note, one suggestion was government funding. You know, taking money from people who are against their idea to fund it. As always.

  6. Re:Misunderstanding of risk on The $100,000 Device That Could Have Solved Missing Plane Mystery · · Score: 1

    What should one take from a fictitious quote from a B movie?

  7. Re:snark on The $100,000 Device That Could Have Solved Missing Plane Mystery · · Score: 1

    How pompous and self-righteous. As if you're going to throw your own earnings at this issue you find yourself on the morally superior side of. Unless you do that, you were just posing.

  8. Re:Cultural bias biggest factor on Men And Women Think Women Are Bad At Basic Math · · Score: 1

    but because social biases that exist in the system are failing the female students more often than they are failing the male students.

    Despite the volumes of evidence that the opposite is actually true? All researched, all documented, all well known?

  9. Re:It's because women's clothes lack pockets on Men And Women Think Women Are Bad At Basic Math · · Score: 2

    No, the men will be just as poor at it as they are.

  10. Re:In my experience on Men And Women Think Women Are Bad At Basic Math · · Score: 1

    There's only one possible outcome since Humans only think one way.

    You are incorrect. Since you are incorrect at this, the rest of your logic is rather crumbly.

  11. Re:In my experience on Men And Women Think Women Are Bad At Basic Math · · Score: 2

    Only to a pedant.

  12. Re:It was my mom who taught me my basic math on Men And Women Think Women Are Bad At Basic Math · · Score: 1

    That's a long way to go to stretch his accolade to what his mother did for him into a snarky, caustic tirade.

  13. Re:Life extension is bad on Men And Women Think Women Are Bad At Basic Math · · Score: 2

    Yeah, we're going somewhere else. Just not soon or in a massive wave so it would be useful as a population valve. But, you're correct. If we want to lower population, we need to bring everyone else into the current century.

  14. Re:An advantage on Embarrassing Stories Shed Light On US Officials' Technological Ignorance · · Score: 2

    I think you're conflating normal people and pompous dipshits.

  15. Re:You keep using that word on Author Says It's Time To Stop Glorifying Hackers · · Score: 1

    I think the majority are pretty aware that the majority of hackers aren't the benign little explorers the hacker community would have them believe they are.

  16. Re:You keep using that word on Author Says It's Time To Stop Glorifying Hackers · · Score: 1

    Only by self.

  17. Re:Also time to stop on Author Says It's Time To Stop Glorifying Hackers · · Score: 0

    I think you mean Biden.

  18. Re:Interesting Math (like there's another variety) on Meat Makes Our Planet Thirsty · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Yes there are, but those require an open mind, researching your data and ***not having a social agenda***.

  19. Re:no surprise on Mass. Legislature Strikes Back: Upskirt Photos Now Officially a Misdemeanor · · Score: 2

    Not at all what the law covers. No clandestine photographing being done. What a lame extreme to promote.

  20. Re:question objectivity on Can Science Ever Be "Settled?" · · Score: 2

    First class example is that evolutionary criticism (missing intermediate species or disputed claims of finding them, Darwin's doubled-down denial of genetics, etc) is completely forbidden in US schools.

    Much like that sentence was unadulterated bullshit.

  21. Re:Bitcoin: I am not money on Satoshi Nakamoto Found? Not So Fast · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Because we all know Wikipedia can't be edited by someone with an agenda.

  22. move and hire round-the-clock security on Bitcoin Inventor Satoshi Nakamoto Outed By Newsweek · · Score: 1

    He fears for his life, eh? And you know this how, because of your telepathy or your in-depth personal interview with him? Personally, I imagine that it's because of your own paranoia leaking into all aspects of life. See how easy it is to fabricate a crap opinion from nothing.

  23. Re: Yes they did. on Ask Slashdot: Does Your Employer Perform HTTPS MITM Attacks On Employees? · · Score: 0

    Attacks are, by definition, abusive.

  24. Re:"Free" has ruined mobile gaming on PC Game Prices — Valve Starts the Race To Zero · · Score: 1

    After removing that "vast majority", you're still left with a number of games. Some are epic, RPG, sprawling or a combo. None of those sell for $1. By the way, I play a sprawling, epic RPG almost daily. Not hard to find.

  25. Re:problem is on PC Game Prices — Valve Starts the Race To Zero · · Score: 1

    "That $1 pays for somebody to produce....." No it doesn't. The dollar store is selling rejects, overstocks, lost shipments and such. Almost everything in there is a loss to the maker, not a profit.
