  1. Re:So, basically what usually happens to women.... on The First Women in Tech Didn't Leave -- Men Pushed Them Out (wsj.com) · · Score: 2

    Yep. this is why you see so many women in garbage collection. Oh wait...

  2. Re:Stupid bean counters on The First Women in Tech Didn't Leave -- Men Pushed Them Out (wsj.com) · · Score: 1

    Except female managers are more likely to pay women less than male managers.

  3. Re:Throw the book at the little fish on Volkswagen Executive Sentenced To Maximum Prison Term For His Role In Dieselgate (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 2

    None of the bigger fish involved have been stupid enough to step on US soil

  4. Re: The Dirty Secret Of Where EULAs Came From on Free Game Company Sues 14-Year-Old Over 'Cheats' Video -- Claiming DMCA Violation (bbc.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    Except no one's saying that Epic doesn't have the right to revoke his access to the game, but nice strawman.

  5. Re:because what you want to watch isn't on netflix on Netflix Is Not Going to Kill Piracy, Research Suggests (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 1

    1961 my ass, everything before 1989 should be public domain.

  6. Re:Who do they think is going to enforce these law on Democrat Senators Introduce National Data Breach Notification Law (cyberscoop.com) · · Score: -1, Troll

    The amount of stupid in your comment is astounding. The FBI, Treasury, and Homeland would all be perfectly capable of enforcing this shit. The idea that the CFPB is necessary for this sort of law is absofuckingluty moronic.

  7. Re:You all need to read the FAQ from the Boring Co on Elon Musk's Boring Company Bids On Chicago Airport Transit Link (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    All they need to do is stick a ground penetrating radar unit on the boring machine that they fire up every 100 yards of digging or so.

  8. Re:Don't even think about shared guilt on Ajit Pai and the FCC Want It To Be Legal for Comcast To Block BitTorrent (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Comcast tries it and the demand for last mile municipal internet or for Congress to pass a law, which is really the way NN should be implemented anyway, will increase exponentially. Especially if Netflix and Amazon Video are smart and don't renew their non-throttle contracts with Comcast when they come up.

  9. Re:An unpopular opinion on Facebook To Show Users Which Russian Propaganda They Followed (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Well, as soon as the tax bill goes through and repeals SALT, that might just happen.

  10. Because the comment period can introduce angles they may not have thought of. Guess what a mass mailed form letter rather explicitly doesn't do.

  11. Bitch at your congressperson. The FCC's remit is not the opinion of the people.

  12. The real problem being that there are innumerable number of things that should not be felonies in the first place.

  13. Auto shotgun manjacks loaded with birdshot for everybody's roofs.

  14. Re:Taxation is theft on The House's Tax Bill Levies a Tax On Graduate Student Tuition Waivers (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Why, it's almost as if universities want to keep their graduate students they will have to either...wait for it... reduce tuition or increase compensation.

  15. Re: Taxation is theft on The House's Tax Bill Levies a Tax On Graduate Student Tuition Waivers (nytimes.com) · · Score: 3, Informative

    Technically speaking the title regarding ongoing taxation is a license to use the car on public roads. Doesn't apply to a private vehicle never used on public thoroughfares.

  16. Re:Make your own choices on Ads May Soon Stalk You on TV Like They Do on Your Facebook Feed (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Yep. It's not like this type of behavior would end up significantly increase cord cutting or anything.

  17. Re:What do you need to know? on iPhone Encryption Hampers Investigation of Texas Shooter, Says FBI (chron.com) · · Score: 1

    Or, y'know, if the dems hadn't filibustered the Cruz-Grassley bill in 2013 which would have forced govt agencies to forward the available paperwork to NICS or face penalties.

  18. Bananas, they're bananas.

  19. Re:Incident occured during a LOX test on SpaceX Rocket Engine Explodes During Test (space.com) · · Score: 2

    You need something that has the expansion characteristics of LOX and is a liquid at the same temperatures. Good luck finding it.

  20. Re:Missing the whole point on Amazon (and Netflix) Pursue a 'Lord of The Rings' TV Series (theverge.com) · · Score: 1
  21. Coffee Lake is sold out because it's a paper launch. Ryzen isn't because they're getting 80%+ chips full up with over 99% of chips usable for the lower tier skus. Not to mention that Zen+ at 12nm hits around February.

  22. Re: Support Right to Independence on Catalonia Declares Independence; Spain Approves Central Takeover Of Region (npr.org) · · Score: 1

    To be specific, it was about power and the potential loss of such.

  23. Re:what logic? on FCC To Loosen TV, Newspaper Ownership Rules (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    You seem to be mistaking the two purveyors of advertisements with those looking for and posting the news to the internet.

    Global warming is an irrelevant factor to such defenses. Any large metropolis that wants to maintain such a classification for hundreds of years must assume that a 1,-10,000 year event of each major natural disaster present in the area has a good chance of occurring and should engineer accordingly if it wants to remain a large metropolis after the fact.
