    *Nicotine is also not necessarily in the vaping fluid. A recent survey showed about 1/3 of teen use was non-nicotine. *

    Yeah, they vape hash-oil.

    So also more likely to have booby-trapped the door with explosives.

  10. "No, all for fucking 300 $1.2k phones, aka $360,000 worth of stolen merchandise. The police were hoping that they'd find all of the phones (and the thieves) at the same location."

    Yeah, they are stupid that way.

    Thieves stealing GPS-equipped gadgets activating one with all the loot nearby, do not exist anymore.

  11. Re:Lie Detectors on Can Machine Learning Guess True Emotions From Facial Microexpressions? (cmu.edu) · · Score: 1

    With the difference that iPhones and jewelry make money, Ferrari is a prestige-only penis extension for the Fiat boss.

  13. "Contaminated areas would be off-limits to humanity for up to 100 years. "

    That would launch a planetary destruction and no humanity would be left to wait for a hundred years.

  14. "Reminds me of that isolate tribe of people on a remote island who throws spears at helicopters."

    "The alt-right ditto-heads are going to crowdsource these rankings into an echo-chamber in the first 10 minutes."

    " With the monthly lease payment of a little more than $418, one vehicle ends up costing taxpayers over $15 a mile to use."
