    If ever there was a more apropos series of books for Creimer, I'm not aware of it.

    The Idiot books are no longer popular these days..

    If I need a quick and dirty introduction to a subject, I would grabbed a Dummies book. When I was the lead tester for Backyard Football, Backyard Baseball and Backyard Hockey for the Nintendo GameCube/GBA at Atari, I grabbed the Dummies book for each sport, got up to speed to understand each sport, and used it as a reference during testing.

    When I was in school in the early 1980's, the history textbook ended before Richard Nixon resigned from the presidency. I had to go to college to find out what came after that.

    The newer public libraries tend to be smaller than the older public libraries of yesteryear. When a new public library and community center opened near my home, the library was a tiny little room inside a huge building. The rest of the building was a fitness center, a basketball court , a café and community rooms that the city collects rental fees on.

    Hate to break it to you, but US poverty line income is five figures ($22,162 for a family of four with two children under 18).

    The poverty level in Silicon Valley and San Francisco is $100K per year for a family of four.

    Barely living above poverty on a six-figure income, dreaming of the day you could actually afford to buy a house or save for retirement is a rather unique climate that is somehow justified with little more than Califuckinawesome weather...

    I already do that on a five-figure income in Silicon Valley.

    If you believe that CNN committed a crime, file a complaint with the New York Attorney General Office.

    Sounds like it won't be enough unless they have a "how not to be a raging dickhead" training.

    That's why managers have to keep going to sensitivity training every week until their department changes. Most dickheads will do anything to avoid attending sensitivity training. Some might even change their ways.

    The only time people cared was when links to dick pics were popping up in comments. Once that stopped, no one cared anymore. Which is what I expect around here.

  19. Threatening to expose someone's real identity is an effective method of silencing them, as the troll probably said other things that would be embarrassing in the real world. Which is why an asshat tossed out my full legal name in a comment this morning. However, that won't stop me from posting comments on Slashdot. My legal name and address is a matter of public record. That's the price of owning a business and filing for bankruptcy.

    So, get the battery replaced and stop whining.

  24. Yes, let's take advice from the obese middle-aged kissless virgin.

    Kissless? Phftt.... please.

  25. 1) [...] is 6'9, 385-ish pounds [...]

    Why are you comparing me to someone who 10" taller and 35 pounds heavier than me? Chris Christie is a better comparison because we're the same height and similar weight range. Except he's an obvious butterball and I'm obviously not.

    2) YOU claim you eat 15% of that caloric intake, but manage to somehow maintain some ridiculously high muscle mass with an occasional jog-walk on a treadmill and some seated rows.

    And I'm slimmer than Chris Christie even though I'm 30 pounds heavier.
