  1. Can't you block adwords ads too? I haven't seen one in a long time.

  2. I wonder what percentage of Google ad impressions are from fake views. You would think a significant percentage of people have adblockers by now.

  3. Re:$15 Billion - Guess why. on World's Longest Sea Bridge Opens After 9 Years of Construction (go.com) · · Score: 2

    11 people died during construction of the Golden Gate bridge. And that is considered pretty good. So yeah.

  4. Already done on YouTube Is Investing $20 Million In Educational Content, Creators (theverge.com) · · Score: 2, Informative

    They have already been funding great education TED-Ed talks like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

  5. Re:Do you mean the toy? on Richard Branson Steps Down As Chairman of Virgin Hyperloop One (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    Haha, not a toy. Just another scam.

  6. Re:Elon can do this on Richard Branson Steps Down As Chairman of Virgin Hyperloop One (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    Elon already built a super awesome hyperloop. Been there, done that.

  7. Re:How come I always see this coming ahead of time on Oculus Co-founder is Leaving Facebook After Cancellation of 'Rift 2' Headset (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    Because you are a genius?

  8. A rift?

  9. Re:Let's try something crazy. on SQLite Adopts 'Monastic' Code of Conduct (sqlite.org) · · Score: 2

    It isn't "worth a shot". This is a big shock to most people, but respect is earned, it is not a right. I know, I know, in today's world everyone demands "respect", but many times their actions don't deserve respect.

  10. I'm not a troll, I am just against groupthink and people who think that progress is inevitable and doesn't require hard work.

  11. Re:Trolls get old fast. on YouTubers Will Enter Politics, And If They Do, They're Probably Going To Win (buzzfeednews.com) · · Score: 1, Insightful

    I know what a troll is, but the way people use it today makes no sense. It seems to have morphed into "someone who says something I disagree with, so I can't fathom how they could truly believe something different than me, so I am going to call them a troll"

  12. You don't need an ID to vote. Plus it doesn't increase the odds of getting jury duty, that comes from multiple sources including drivers licenses/ids/tax filings/etc.

  13. Re:Trolls get old fast. on YouTubers Will Enter Politics, And If They Do, They're Probably Going To Win (buzzfeednews.com) · · Score: 0, Troll

    I never understood what people mean by "troll". What is a "troll" exactly? Is Alex Jones a "troll"? Is Breitbart a "troll"? They may be misinformed, or incorrect, or just out to grab money, but that isn't trolling.

  14. Re:Wait..what? on Linus Torvalds is Back in Charge of Linux (zdnet.com) · · Score: 2

    I would make it all Ring 0 for performance reasons. Nothing could possibly go wrong. But now that Linus is back in charge it probably will never happen.

  15. Re:Moore's Law on Intel Has Killed off the 10nm Process, Report Says (semiaccurate.com) · · Score: -1

    Be prepared to sell any investment that claims "AI" or "autonomous" because those advancements are completely dependent on ever increasing digital processing (which isn't going to happen).

  16. Moore's Law on Intel Has Killed off the 10nm Process, Report Says (semiaccurate.com) · · Score: 0

    End of the line for ever more powerful digital computing is coming fast. Better be prepared.

  17. Maybe in a rainforest. That setup won't produce 50L per day.

  18. Re:Waiting for Dave's rant on this on A Device That Can Pull Drinking Water From the Air Just Won the Latest XPrize (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 1

    Dave Jones has debunked BattBump, Solar Roadways, 121GW multimeters, white van speakers and that self-filling water bottle thing. He has been right: they are all scams. You can prove it via basic engineering. You don't know what you are talking about.

  19. Wait..what? on Linus Torvalds is Back in Charge of Linux (zdnet.com) · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I thought I was still in charge of Linux. I was just about to merge in my support for Visual Basic.

  20. The True Story on Bill Gates Honors Microsoft Co-Founder Paul Allen: He 'Changed My Life' (people.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    The True Story is that Gates and Allen hated each other and Allen was a patent troll after he left Microsoft. But yeah, what a lovefest.

  21. Re:Amazing. on Bill Gates Honors Microsoft Co-Founder Paul Allen: He 'Changed My Life' (people.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It also helps when you have rich parents and your Mother is on the board of IBM. Give me a break.

  22. Re:Welcome to the World Wide World! on How the Finnish Survive Without Small Talk (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Over which sea? Are you saying you shouldn't speak English in England? Which language should we speak when we are "oversea"?

  23. Too much confusion? on Tesla Quietly Drops 'Full Self-Driving' Option As It Adds $45,000 Model 3 (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You mean "it doesn't work". Autonomous driving is a joke and will never happen. I can't wait until the new Tesla "AI chip" arrives though.

  24. You mean cheap software written in PHP is insecure?

  25. Yeah, sounds like you have been brainwashed. Let me guess, we invaded Afghanistan so you can get an Android phone? What you say doesn't make sense in what we are talking about. What tyranny was vanquished? Google? You guys have no clue what freedom is.
