  1. Better yet, make the Post Office profitable on Trump Wants Postal Service To Charge 'Much More' For Amazon Shipments (reuters.com) · · Score: 0

    Do the things UPS and FedEx do - They're not going broke... Why? Because gov't run operations don't do jack to minimize costs.

  2. Re:there will be changes on Microsoft To Sell Customized Edition of Samsung Galaxy S8 Android Smartphones (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    And then when it boots..."An error has occurred. Rolling back updates."

    20 minutes later... Still spinning...

    EMT's arrive after phone finally boots and checks in with a tower/GPS. "Sorry guys, looks like he hit the blue screen of death."

  3. Re:M$ phone? You gotta be kidding! on Microsoft To Sell Customized Edition of Samsung Galaxy S8 Android Smartphones (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Perhaps it will be crapware that might have some utility (IE: AT&T's bloatware that backs up your contacts on an freaking Android phone that already backs up contacts to Gmail... Or a find your device app, when that's already baked into the OS.)

  4. Go bugger yourselves! on Indian IT Sector Warns Against US Visa Bill (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    Go get a job in India, supporting Indians, and finally give those of us in IT some relief! If the day arrives where I don't have to repeat "pardon me?" 50 times, it won't be too soon.

  5. So, you scan your face to use in a game playable online, then bitch that the image of your face can be seen online?

    What kind of box of rocks did those two crawl out of?

  6. Re: Obama has no right to do this on President Obama Orders Review of Cyber Attacks On 2016 Election (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    The libs are too weak-minded to actually do something, like learn how the damn election system operates...

  7. Re: Obama has no right to do this on President Obama Orders Review of Cyber Attacks On 2016 Election (reuters.com) · · Score: 0

    If you went by the books, yes. But the dems' own recount has turned up voter fraud itself...

  8. Re:People deserve their government. on Comey Denies Clinton Email 'Reddit' Cover-Up (politico.com) · · Score: 1

    ...I wish I had mod points to give you. Perfect retort!

  9. Re:Clinton is above the law on Comey Denies Clinton Email 'Reddit' Cover-Up (politico.com) · · Score: 1

    Investigated by people beholden to the Clintons in one way or another... Or those fearful of physical harm.

  10. Re: movie theaters on Alicia Keys Latest Artist To Enforce No Cell Phone Policy at Concerts (slashgear.com) · · Score: 5, Funny

    Except when the entire first two rows are filled with overzealous mothers that form a roman-shield formation of iPads taking video.

  11. Violent felon... on Mugger Arrested After Victim Spots Him On Facebook's 'People You May Know' (bgr.com) · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    With a conspicuously non-traditional British name. Yeah, open our borders... It's all good, they only want what's ours.

  12. Re: What's next? on PayPal Pulls North Carolina Plan After Transgender Bathroom Law (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    Just put yourself in the position of a young lady that was the victim of sexual assault... You really think nothing of her mental well-being when she goes into a restroom and has some dude in there as well?

  13. ...is what all the Russian proxy services going to do when all their IPs are blocked?

  14. Re:Penny on Should the US Change Metal Coins? (networkworld.com) · · Score: 1

    The Fed more than makes up for the loss in coin minting by printing paper money in their QE's.

  15. Re: Penny on Should the US Change Metal Coins? (networkworld.com) · · Score: 1

    WWII's pennies were steel.

  16. Exactly.

  17. I carry a "smart phone" and a "dumb pistol" every on The US Gov't Could Become the Biggest Customer for Smart Guns (computerworld.com) · · Score: 2

    My phone unlocks with a fingerprint using the best fingerprint tech available. I don't know how many times it takes 2, 3, or 4 times to unlock it. "Unrecognized - Enter backup password" or "Place finger over entire sensor" is all too common.

    If, God forbid, I ever have to draw my weapon to defend myself or someone else, I don't want to make sure I have a perfectly lined up grip to trigger the smart technology. Someone attacking you doesn't lend for minor finger positioning nuances very much. I expect finger on trigger + pull = bang, not a little chime telling me I need to adjust my grip.

  18. Re:good but.... on Chrome Extension Offers Trump-Free Browsing (usnews.com) · · Score: 0

    No lie -- Just make a filter that uses some AI to filter out libtarded shit and I'd install it. I'm so sick of seeing that shrew in banner ads, and other people thinking Bernie can give them more of the same freebies that got Obutthead elected to start with.

  19. Re:Can somebody explain to me on FAA Drone Rules May Already Be Outlawed By Congress (hackaday.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    "Shall not be infringed" is a big part of no national gun database...

  20. Re:Waiting... on FAA Drone Rules May Already Be Outlawed By Congress (hackaday.com) · · Score: 1

    Actually, you can get a pretty amazing puffed-goose effect going straight through the turbine intake.

    ^Win!

  22. Waiting... on FAA Drone Rules May Already Be Outlawed By Congress (hackaday.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Waiting for the FAA to ban birds from flying around helos and airplanes...

  23. Re:Photoshop, please! on Why President Obama Was Held Back a Year Before Starting Code School (quora.com) · · Score: 1

    The problem with him isn't that... It's that he's a colossal IDIOT. If what he is supposed to say isn't laid out in front of him, he's a completely empty jug of milk. No substance, no value, nothing. The empty chair caricature laid it out pretty well.

  24. Re:wah wah wah clickbait on Writer: Why Watching the Original Star Wars Again Was a Bad Idea (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    How flipping insensitive... a robot can't even be gay without someone cutting him down? Sheesh!

  25. Looks like it's time to pull back some of those education visas for Arabs in the engineering fields.
