    Ridiculous. A computer program can "touch" many files and also may need to run without user intervention. No one is going to answer "yes this problem needs to access djfhgkl.dll" prompts. General computers can never be secure because malware are just programs too.

    You also have heavy metal contamination in your lakes and streams due to heavy industry and mining (particularly in Ottawa). You also have a meth problem (particularly in Vancouver). At least you have a eagles fly above your bike when you head to the grocery store.

  3. So in the States, everyone has a two hour commute (one way)? We all have smog days...in summer.

    "And education system that's been gutted."

    That I can believe.

    "If I had it to do over again I'd moved to Canada in a heartbeat."

    I would too. Then I would get some edumacashun.

    "I went through some town and the grocery store had nothing fresh to eat, it was all just dry stuff in boxes, the fruit area consisted of two box tops with apples or oranges and they both looked rotted. That was the best food I had come across at any grocery store."

    Hilarious!

    "I live along a pristine area where eagles follow my bike above on sunny days and I get to see the sunset over the beach. I could not leave a veritable garden of Eden"

    Classic.

    Refugees, not "migrants".

    You mean a US country like the UK?

  7. It must be sad to live in such an oppressive country you aren't allowed to use an AM radio and CB at home. Canadians should rise up!

  8. Lies. We all know the capital of Canada is Toronto.

    I think we need to build a wall to keep people from moving around so much.

  10. OK, what about Vancouver? It is lovely I have heard.

  11. Wait, so the US isn't one homogenous entity? There are different places in the US with different experiences and lifestyles and living conditions? Amazing what you learn on Slashdot.

  12. No American is desperate enough to move to Canada. Even when they hit 30. They would rather accept their fate.

  13. This is similar to visiting investment websites. They will simultaneously tell you that oil prices are collapsing and skyrocketing on the same page. Data can be interpreted to fit any agenda. Most likely this "study" was funded by someone looking to increase (taxpayer funded) investment in the Canadian tech industry.

  14. Would you go to Silicon Valley though? You could go to Toronto instead.

  15. This is unlikely, since we all know from comments on Slashdot that the US is a third world hellhole no one would want to even visit, much less live in. Surely they meant they fled to Europe, which as we all know is a welcoming, enlightened place for humans to live in peace and harmony.

  16. Re:Tesla's Current Stock Short Situation on Sorry Elon Musk, There's No Clear Evidence Autopilot Saves Lives (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    You Tesla fanboys are hilarious. So many investors are short TSLA because it is a BAD INVESTMENT. The stock is falling currently because of the idiot he made of himself on the earnings call. His Enron like performance means that he will eventually have to step down. Tesla will need billions more in investment. By the way, intentionally tanking a stock would be illegal for Musk to do.

  17. Musk needs to step down on Sorry Elon Musk, There's No Clear Evidence Autopilot Saves Lives (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 0

    His performance on the earnings call was Enron like. He needs to step down.

  18. Normal people don't think like that.

  19. Yeah, the ad company should be fired for making people notice advertisements.

  20. Yeah, it's too bad to have your marketing campaign splashed around the web and talked about.

  21. My startup on 'Biology Will Be the Next Big Computing Platform' (wired.com) · · Score: 4, Funny

    My startup is planning on being the next "Uber for Crispr". Our current valuation is $54.3B but we are looking at a $3T market. If you are interested in learning more, just message me.

    Odd. There should be more articles about neighborhoods that have buried nuclear reactors. They are everywhere.

    My fellow material scientists and I already worked out the details at Burning Man last year. The only thing that is preventing us from building it is the cotton industry.

    I saw some dude at a Pearl Jam concert with a concrete shirt and I punched him right on the nose for disrespecting the environment.

    You could, and it would last forever. For example, I have a hemp shirt I wear to Lollapalooza every year and it hasn't worn out yet. If only the cotton industry would get out of the way we would have our hemp-based homes already.
