  2. Re:Tsk tsk on Undersea Cable Break Disrupts Life In Northern Mariana Islands · · Score: 1

    I wonder how many youngsters remember that the regional weather is broadcast over that one-way push medium known as radio? Not you, apparently

    Nonsense, that redundancy for this island would cost money no one is willing to pony up. It wasn't that important so they don't have it

  4. Re:Disrupts 'Life' on Undersea Cable Break Disrupts Life In Northern Mariana Islands · · Score: 2

    You are funny, most jobs on that island do not depend on "cloud services" at all. I realize many marketing wanks think their BS buzzword phrase is critical to civilization, but the real world operates differently.

    So sad you grew up on 90s pr0n, otherwise you'd know pubes don't really flow, they're rather static

    You don't know how to account for money when it changes hands? You imagine it disintegrates afterword? That's pretty pathetic.

  8. Re:Pull the Other One on IBM Beats The Rest of the World To 7nm Chips, But You'll Need to Wait For Them · · Score: 2

    You are silly, IBM is showing a working device that proves 7nm is possible if using heavier atom in alloy, which is a first step

    Mass production lithography and multipatterning issues are another step that needs to be addressed.

  9. Re:How could this happen? on OpenSSL Patches Critical Certificate Forgery Bug · · Score: 1

    No, anyone can submit a contribution which may or may not get accepted by those controlling the project. Your understanding is so flawed

    OpenSSL problems are due to proprietary company controlling the project for certain proprietary interests.

    maybe something could survive in the high atmosphere that could then work its way down as change progressed. Really this might even be within our current grasp, sending the probes to distribute the stuff is a solved problem. Phase two would be for the future, of diverting comets to rain down some water (pun intended) on the place. And there's no worry of screwing up a planet as there might be in say Mar's or certain gas giant moon cases; Venus is as screwed already as can get

    Economies can shrink, money can lose value, wealth can really be destroyed. But not in the stock market which reflects those things but is not those things.

    no, for every person who lost money there is someone who got the money.

    And more to the point, the value of a stock can only be that which it has when sold. No "trillions wiped out", that's nonsense.

    But money changing hands is what an economy is, someone spending millions to many people who spend that...are what makes an economy have volume. If that stops the economy dies.

    Now let's switch gears and talk about things with potential present and future ability to "make money" from a single entities point of view. Infrastructure can make money if that investment was wise; real estate moreover can be sold.

  19. Title is Wrong on China's Stock Crash: $3.5 Trillion Wiped Out, $2.6 Trillion Frozen · · Score: 0

    Why can't people understand the simple concept of stock buying and selling?

    No money was lost, no value was lost. That is a lie.

    At the time of selling there is a seller and a buyer. None of that money "disappears". The time of selling is the only time a stocks value is known, but the net gain in money for all parties is always zero.

    Even in the crash of 1929, not one cent was lost.

    Then you have no critical thinking skills. Robert Doggart has been released to the custody of his family, and the judge has asked the prosecutor to come up with a shred of evidence that Doggart actually posed any kind of credible threat whatsoever.

    Talk is cheap, and doesn't blow up or set fire to anything. Doggart is guilty of running his mouth, nothing more.
