Is he too lazy? Or is it just a manifestation of incompentence?
Invariably when a story on slashdot is confusing, incomprehensible, or just plain inaccurate it also seems to bear Timmy's patented brand.
I wish you could filter out stories by their editor.
In this latest story of his he feels the need to include text asking "Exactly what they will be taxing isn't clear, since the tax amounts to 9% of... something. Will taxing the electrical wires within your home be next?"
Well the link he provides answers that question. Or it answers that question for those of us who can read.
"Computer networks would be taxed at that percent on either annual lease payments or depreciation. "
So for the question of home wiring being taxed, yes it would be, if it's leased or if it's being depreciated as a capital good.
Why/. continues to allow this person who shows NOTHING but contempt for/. and it's readers I can't understand. He doesn't think either/. or it's readers is worth the time it takes to do more than read bold print and write up the first knee jerk reaction he has.
Timmy, if you ever fall down a well, I'll personally shoot Lassie to keep you there.
