    t's not really true considering Paris has has bigger mass shootings in the last 2 years than have ever happened in the U.S.

    That's a lie.

    Every single mass shooting with a high death toll in U.S. history has exactly one thing in common: It happened in a liberal-enforced "gun free zone".

    I hope they quit supporting the idea of every nut job having a gun. I'm sure they won't, but that's what's in my "thoughts and prayers".

    It won't be awkward for him, I'm sure. People don't understand what hypocrisy is any more, by and large.

    You're right. It should start with the President and his "Second Amendment solutions".

    Welcome to how we feel after having to be afraid of nutty Jesus-y shooters for the past decades. Feels great, huh?

    Somehow, the US has more mass shootings than any other country on the planet. I'm sure it's just a coincidence.

    What an ass she is. That comment just insured that she'll never be hired again as a CEO. Burning bridges never goes well.

    An SUV today is simply a tall sedan. That's exactly what an SUV is. What magic "SUV" criteria do you think "most normal people" are looking for?

    Sounds like you got some bad luck, indeed. We run millions of dollars a year through three different ones and we have really great service and really low fees & low interest on loans at all three of them.

  12. Strict OO architecture on Ask Slashdot: What Are Some 'Best Practices' IT Should Avoid At All Costs? (cio.com) · · Score: 1

    I had a ton of experience building web apps as a contractor. I'd see lots of projects that were structured as strict OO projects, even though they were simple web apps. The level of complexity and time and expense it takes to build a complete OO application actually ran one of the companies I worked for completely out of business. They ran out of money before they finished the application. Ignoring some of the "best practices" whitepaper garbage would've gotten their application finished in half the time.

  13. Banks are for suckers on US Banks Launching Answer To Peer-To-Peer Payment App Venmo (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    Banks are for suckers. They're like casinos: they always win, and you, eventually, always lose. Use a credit union and ignore what the banks are doing.

  14. Supporting 10-20 year old hardware isn't tough. It just runs. We don't throw it in the recycle bin just because Apple tells us to.

    If you can't "support" 10-20 year old hardware, perhaps you're in the wrong line of work. Have you considered selling iPhones?

  15. And your post is why our company has never and will never use Apple. Not only is their hardware exorbitantly priced to begin with, but the upgrade cycles is absurdly short. Good for them, though, to have a stable of consumer who will happily hand over money on a fairly regular basis for no other reason than because Apple says so. Our company happily runs on 10-20 year old hardware with no problems.

  16. So what happens to people with Macs more than a few years old? Are they SOL for new software?

    You're right of course. Nobody called the police before Dylan Roof killed all of those people because of racism.

    It's all tied back to your credit card accounts. The merchant providers all swap data, and all of that data is given to retailers today (for free). We can even see all of the other places our customers shop, too. It's pretty cool for us.

  19. Universal tracking on LG Joins NFC Payment Party With LG Pay (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    As a retailer, I say, "Bring it on". It's more data for us to use. In all honesty, though, we've already got tons of data just from people using regular credit cards. People are tracked across all of their purchases with their credit/debit cards, already, and that data is available to all retailers. But if people want to give us even MORE data, hey, better for us retailers!

    FWIW, as a consumer, I always use cash.

    It'll happen with health care for sure. Progressive places like CA and MA , etc will have a network of single payer healthcare. The economies and quality of life will continue to grow in those states. The rest of the states will continue to devolve towards the Mad Max quality of life that they apparently desire.

    So if I write "Like" on a gun and shoot somebody, can I argue, "I was only trying to 'Like' them. It says so right on the gun!"?

    You think that somebody clicking a "Like" button in Facebook doesn't know they're disseminating the information?

    One "likes" something by taking pleasure from it. Pushing a button that says "Like" on Facebook is disseminating something. If the button said "orange porridge", but it still disseminates whatever it's attached to, that's still spreading it. What the button says is irrelevant. The action is that you're publishing whatever it is for people to see.

    I disagree, AC. By hitting "Like", you're intentionally distributing whatever you "liked" to whoever is in your network. The effect is the same as posting something yourself. I think it's defamation, and again, I agree with this court. I'd love to see that same decision enforced all over the world. It would really make people think twice before spreading all sorts of garbage. And if they didn't think twice, they'd be sued.
