  1. Stupid question on Xbox Live Will Soon Connect Players on Android, iOS and Switch (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    Don't players on boxes with REAL controllers have a huge advantage in PvP combat versus players using a touchscreen?

  2. "All-White Redesign"? on Google Cleans Up Gmail App With An All-White Redesign (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    Are they trying to make google more popular with Trump supporters?

  3. Wow... on Meet the Man Behind a Third of What's On Wikipedia (cbsnews.com) · · Score: 1

  4. Re:Prospective Buyers actually make sense on Game Retailer GameStop Says It Can't Sell Itself, Sees Stock Drive 27 Percent (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The game manufactures DO NOT WANT anyone to resell used games, it cuts into their profit margins! Therefore, they are likely to do things to screw over the sellers of used games, as I am sure Game Stop discovered.

  5. Re:Video games are for jobless losers on Game Retailer GameStop Says It Can't Sell Itself, Sees Stock Drive 27 Percent (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Usually those jobless user's PARENTS pay for the games... problem is, you can download games now for the same price that Game Stop charges, so you never need to leave your mom's basement!

  6. Re:"For once" on The Robot Revolution Will Be Worse For Men · · Score: 1

    You forgot that the expected lifespan for women is 4.8 years longer than for men.

  7. What about the sex bots? on The Robot Revolution Will Be Worse For Men · · Score: 1

    Seems like they are going to put a lot more women than men out of work! (Does a vibrator qualify as a "sex bot"?_

  8. Re:Hmm... on Location Finds Bluetooth, Ultra-Wideband (eetimes.com) · · Score: 1

    That's an application of Augmented Reality I haven't thought of... making it look YUGE! I'll bet Donald Trump would buy one!

  9. Design Engineering 101 on A Tiny Screw Shows Why iPhones Won't Be 'Assembled in USA' (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Second and third source all your components where possible!

    You're saying the south got screwed?

  11. Of _course_ the Chinese produce more screws! on A Tiny Screw Shows Why iPhones Won't Be 'Assembled in USA' (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    That's why there are so many Chinese people!!!

    Accurate enough to be used in VR controllers?

  15. Re:No indictments of the Trump Campaign on FBI Arrests Trump Associate Roger Stone Over His Communications With WikiLeaks (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Otherwise known as the "Alzheimer's defense', or "Trump was too incompetent to realize what crimes all the people working for him were committing"! I've got bad news for you: that traffic ticket I got because I didn't see the "no left turn" sign? The judge didn't throw it out just because I was too ignorant to know I was doing something illegal!

  16. Re: No indictments of the Trump Campaign on FBI Arrests Trump Associate Roger Stone Over His Communications With WikiLeaks (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Perhaps you need to have your sarcasm meter calibrated...

  17. Google "Florida Secretary of State Michael Ertel resigns after blackface images emerge". I'll wait. The (R), it doesn't just stand for Republican!

  18. "Tick, tick. tick..."

  19. Re:So someone lied about contacting journalists ? on FBI Arrests Trump Associate Roger Stone Over His Communications With WikiLeaks (nytimes.com) · · Score: 4, Informative

    Thought you were making that up, but several journalists are reporting Stone threatened to steal a witnesses therapy dog, and told a witness "Prepare to die"... Trump is surrounded by Don Corleone wanna-bes!

  20. Re:No indictments of the Trump Campaign on FBI Arrests Trump Associate Roger Stone Over His Communications With WikiLeaks (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    The Stone indictment contains the words "Trump campaign" 28 times, but according to Sarah Sanders, the Stone indictment "has nothing to do with Trump!"

  21. Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity!

  22. Re:Invoke the Ronald Reagan Defense on FBI Arrests Trump Associate Roger Stone Over His Communications With WikiLeaks (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Reagan was suffering from Alzheimer's during his second term in office. With Trump, I'd say it's happening in his first term! Roger Stone predicted Trump would be accused of having Alzheimer's... maybe Roger knows something we don't?

  23. Cue the desperate "Roger who?!?" tweets from the toddler-in-chief!

  24. The ISS is within Earth's Thermosphere, and still protected by Earth's magnetic field. Granted, human habitation on Mars would be in caves, which would effectively block cosmic radiation, so the transit flight is the only problem./

  25. Pay attention, please! The Democrats are now the party of fiscal conservative (See the Pay-Go resolution in the House). As far as I can tell, racism is the only thing the Republicans still have going for them... BUILD THAT WALL!
