    Yeah, stick your head in the sand and pretend things aren't happening...

    at this stage you'll drown before long

  2. Re: "people could handle that very easily" on Trump Suggests US Could Slap 10 Percent Tax On iPhones, Laptops From China (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Why would Apple balk when they could keep their profit *and* make President Trump look bad?

  3. I suspect enforcement would be up to the FTC, who do know how to prosecute stuff like this.

  4. Re:Moscow Donald's Treasonous Betrayal of America on Russia Wants DNC Hack Lawsuit Thrown Out, Citing International Conventions (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Trump couldn't cyber if his cholesterol level depended on it

  5. Re:Remember... it will also be dryer on Climate Change is Making Hurricanes Even More Destructive, Research Finds (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    No worries though, keep sticking your head in the sand and soon enough you'll drown.

  6. Re:corporate plaintiff, judge, and executioner on AT&T To Cut Off Some Customers' Service in Piracy Crackdown (axios.com) · · Score: 2

    As engaging in media piracy isn't a protected class this is just doing business.

  7. Re:Not the only one at blame on Civil Servant Watching Porn At Work Blamed For Government Malware Outbreak (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    Paid porn sites have damn good security, and are about the safest place on the web. The problem is the sites that come up when you google for porn (SEO malware sites), plus the ad networks used by free porn sites.

    Never really thought about it before but this is a damn good point. Too bad pay-for-porn doesn't market it as such.

  8. This is, sadly, all too common.

  9. Re:Well at least we'll still have Cent on IBM To Buy Red Hat, the Top Linux Distributor, For $34 Billion (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Scientific Linux is already this and very similar to CentOS, owned/administrated by Lawrence Livermore Labs.

  11. don't blame her on Samsung is Suing Its Brand Ambassador For Using an iPhone in Public (appleinsider.com) · · Score: 5, Funny

    She probably just didn't want to catch on fire.

  12. Re:Raise taxes and pay competitive rates on White House Wants To Borrow Tech Workers From Google and Amazon, Says Report (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Current Whitehouse would be lucky if they got nano working

  13. Re:A useful shibboleth on SQLite Adopts 'Monastic' Code of Conduct (sqlite.org) · · Score: 1

    Boom!

  14. Re:Makes sense on SQLite Adopts 'Monastic' Code of Conduct (sqlite.org) · · Score: 1

    The entire point of these SJW attacks on open source projects is to use weaponized CoCs to hijack the project and kick and publicly humiliate their ideological enemies.

    No doubt devised by the MJ12 and the gay frog lizard-people that rule from the center of the earth.

  15. Re:Illegal overtime on Slashdot Asks: Should 'Crunch' Overtime Be Optional? (forbes.com) · · Score: 1

    Alternatively, make crunch time the new normal time and watch society implode.

  16. Re:There goes Aliexpress... on US Announces Plans To Withdraw From 144-Year-Old Postal Treaty (thehill.com) · · Score: 1

    I don't know why this isn't understood by more people.

  17. Re:Does that mean I can get chromefree android pho on Google To Charge Smartphone Makers For Google Play in Europe (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    I thought the AOSP provided a generic POP3/IMAP mail client and (now) no browser? At least it was this way the last time I was playing with it, around Android 4.3 or 5.

  18. That decision was broken and will be overturned. You want to run a business? You have to play by the rules

  19. This is great! Too bad I can't upgrade my XS as its battery died waiting for this update :(

  20. Re:This is not helpful on Amazon Will Raise Its Minimum Wage To $15 For All 350,000 US Workers (recode.net) · · Score: 1

    $15/hr is overpaid in what context?

  21. Re:Can they do that? on FBI Forced Suspect To Unlock His iPhone X Through Face ID (engadget.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Or, this is why you don't advertise child porn/abuse on Craigslist.

  22. Re:Shrinking failures on Intel Addresses CPU Shortage: 'Supply Is Undoubtedly Tight' (crn.com) · · Score: 1

    Last I heard Intel was having some serious problems with yields surrounding 10nm

  23. I hope the Pats try something like this, just so I can register the name first and earn the right to punch Tom Brady in his fat punchable face, I'll take that over $5k any day.

  24. They registered it, they owned it.

    You have no idea how domains work do you? You don't "own" anything when you register a domain, just like you don't "own" IP addresses when you register through ARIN.

  25. They bought the domain TWO WEEKS before the announcement, and there was no "business", just a shill website they put up to appear that way.
