  1. Outlaw All 3rd Party Ad Agencies & Pop-Up Tech on US Congress Bans Members From Using Yahoo Mail (bbc.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    All internet advertising is immoral and should be made illegal. The inventor of the pop-up window needs to be shot, hung and quartered. Any less actions will be regarded as criminal collusion.

  2. Re:Spent $700 On Phone on Sales Of PCs, Laptops, Tablets Continue to Fall, Hit Lowest Point Since 2011 (canalys.com) · · Score: 1

    Hehehe.. I didn't say it was me....I will never spend that kind of money on a cell phone. I don't find it enjoyable trying to do REAL work on a phone. In a pinch if I'm away from my rig(s), I might look up some specs or something but that just reminds me more that I hate using a phone to get work done. Maybe a third generation Continuum-type device may sway me down the road if it is powerful enough AND as long as it AIN'T $700! I can buy a nice Honda lawnmower for that!!

  3. Spent $700 On Phone on Sales Of PCs, Laptops, Tablets Continue to Fall, Hit Lowest Point Since 2011 (canalys.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Can't afford PC, laptop, or tablet.

  7. Re:AMD just crapped themselves on NVIDIA Unveils GeForce GTX 1080, GTX 1070, Faster Than Titan X For a Lot Less (hothardware.com) · · Score: 2, Informative

    AMD gets paid every time Intel sells an x64 chip. Tired of hearing this crap. AMD isn't going anywhere including broke. Go download a 64 bit iso for Linux. I don't care what distro it is. If it is 64 bit then it is labeled AMD64. Wonder why that is. Maybe you should Google that and learn something.

  8. Or a Congressional Easter Egg.

  9. I Fear My Government More on After ISIS, Americans Fear Cyberattacks Most (theatlantic.com) · · Score: 1

    than any other govt. The only thing I fear more than my govt. is the population that voted that government into power. And all that fear would fit on the head of a pin.

  10. You Cannot Get Something From Nothing. on Are We Alone In the Universe? Not Likely, According To Math (cnet.com) · · Score: -1

    I don't care how many people you get on your scientific bandwagon. There is no way you can convince me that this feat can happen. Evolution is the stupidest concept that man has ever conceived. Down mod all you want. An object at rest tends to stay at rest until an outside force acts upon it. Big bangs don't just happen. Matter just does not materialize on its own. So someone either brought us here or they made us here. Either way we came from some place else. So the answer is YES.

  17. Um. Uh. WHAT THE FUCK?? on Doctor Ready to Perform First Human Head Transplant (newsweek.com) · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    This is wrong on so many levels. So when this fails, we are sticking all those involved in a nut ward on an island. And if it is a head transplant then they are going to take the brain out of the head they want to keep and stick it in a new head? Since it is a paywall I have no idea how this works from the headline. Is Newsweek paying Slashdot to carry this article, hoping to get subscribers? So many questions.

  18. Re:Security concerns? on Google's OnHub Is First WiFi Router To Support IFTTT (theverge.com) · · Score: 2

    There is no security. I think we have already seen that if someone wants to hack you....you're hacked. This is about being able to monitor you enough to do selective propaganda attacks. The more they know about you and your likes, dislikes, and needs , the more they can then choose the forms of advertising etc. to try to sway you into a certain way of thinking that supports their needs. If you think they are helping you then you won't think about the real raping that is happening to you. Social engineering at its finest.

  20. Re:Consider these factors on North Korea Launches Two Midrange Missiles, Both Tests Fail (cnn.com) · · Score: 0

    And we are allied with China (who makes all our shit) and we are allied with Russia (ever since WW2, I don't give a fuck about some stupid cold war bullshit made up to keep both populaces in fear). What? We are allied with Russia you say??!! We break bread with them every day in the Space Station and we ride their rockets. You seem to be another brainwashed fear monger that breeds in this country like a shithouse cockroach. Ask an old Chinese man he hates more. A Japanese or an American? Go take a good look at Google Earth on satellite view of any good sized Chinese City. Most cities blow away anything here in America. A bunch of smoggy pictures of Beijing doesn't represent China at all. In fact there a lot of what I was told were 3rd world countries actually have better quality of life and more advanced infrastructure than we do. The leaders of this country have been taking the populace for a ride with FUD and pure lies for so long, we don't know any better and believe anything put before us.

  21. Re:Fine with me, for now on Microsoft Limits Cortana Search Box In Windows 10 To Bing and Edge Only (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 0

    Why have search for local computer? I know MS has had that since Win 95, but who uses it? I've never used search on a local desktop. I already know where everything is. It has been pretty much the same layout for 20+ years. Now I use search every now and then on desktop Linux cuz my brain rejects Linux even though I personally like it. I do find the search in regedit is sometimes useful but I don't consider that the same. Having my OS searching out on the net is a no-no. That is why we have Firefox locked down with NoScript, BlockSite, Ghostery, FoxyProxy & HTTPS Everywhere. Sometimes I think we give the OS too much automation and abilities that are too easy to bypass or circumvent or used against the user/admin.

  22. Again With This Asshole? on North Korea Launches Two Midrange Missiles, Both Tests Fail (cnn.com) · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    No one gives 2 shits about this little bastard and his toys. If you are scared of this puta, then you are in such a sad state you should just check out. This is only news for douches not nerds.

  23. This Pretty Much Ensures AMD Is My Next Purchase on Intel Declares Independence From PC, Prioritizes Cloud, IoT and 5G Efforts · · Score: 0

    My trusty i7 920 @ 3.8 Ghz was pretty much the plateau for Intel chips. Sure I could 'upgrade' to a 4.5 ghz for $1800 but really no reason to. I kept waiting for a 5 Ghz stock chip to upgrade to, but it never materialized. So, goodbye Intel. It was fun. Go ZEN.

    No one reads all that crap. How many entrants? Are they judged just by the book cover? Where are all these people who sit around and read all these books? It would seem you would need to read all on the list to justify a vote. Hmmm. Where do I sign up for this job?
