  1. Never used an RSS reader on 'RSS Has Already Won' (brianschrader.com) · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Sorry, I'm pretty attentive and mindful enough to know when to check regularly for updates.

    RSS served no useful role for me, so it lost from day one.

  2. Ah, Lineage, the piece of junk that doesn't work on half the hardware I've tried flashing it to.

    Meanwhile, I can still drop CyanogenMod on my fucking NOOK COLOR and it runs faster than an iPhone 4S.

    Come back when you use a real Droid distro.

  3. Not a version that would currently be operating anywhere except a 3rd world country. Even my old single-core 512MB RAM Gingerbread, on a base refresh, the installed/updated set of Google-included crap is over 2GB on the 4GB internal flash.

    Don't need to assume shit when I already checked that. Sorry, try again!

  4. I didn't go off subject - as you can see, that was my first post in this particular thread, so, uh, yea, try again when you have actual reading comprehension.

  5. Oh, look, someone else already beat me to analyzing this bullshit - https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

  6. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

    Try 5 years ago Americans already had one made and operational.

    China did not make the worlds first destructive laser rifle. Not even fucking close.

  7. Re: Invading privacy? on Malls In California Are Sending License Plate Information To ICE (theweek.com) · · Score: 0, Troll

    Go figure you're a fucking Libertarian, otherwise you'd have actually read some case law and found out that you (much like your bitcoin-swilling scamming kin) that there are plenty of cases where such is outright illegal - Katz v. United States, held that what "a person knowingly exposes to the public, even in his own home or office, is not a subject of Fourth Amendment protection ... But what he seeks to preserve as private, even in an area accessible to the public, may be constitutionally protected."

    First thing I think of when I hear "Libertarian" is "I don't know the fucking laws that run this country and failed basic civics class" and you demonstrate very fucking clearly why.

    Doesn't work when you're an actual native-born American and still look foreign.

    Looks like U lost all your honor, and your faculties, if such simple logic can escape you.

    "Acktuallyy"

    That's a typical Russian misspelling. Ivan needs to send your sorry ass back to English school.

    "If you want to have (tiny) epic fame forever, create a 3d printable mirror grinding machine."

    It's called a sintered diamond 200,000 grit wheel. We have them already and they're commonly found in lapidary kit now days. You just need to CVD the reflective coating on afterwards and you're good to go.

  11. No, the actual question was whether the barrel being shorter than 18 inches was considered useful for warfare.

    And it is, because the current AA-12 (after.. 2005?) has a barrel length UNDER 18 inches and is in military use today.

    Barrel length generally means precisely jack shit if you're using HE-12 FRAG rounds. Those things EXPLODE. A double-barrel sawed-off would be PLENTY useful for a breach gun loaded with those.

  12. Varmint hunting. Too stupid to know the thing is an overglorified .22?

  13. "To be fair, he was featured in a San Diego Padres shirt, so we should look into banning baseball bats."

    Ron Fowler (co-owner of the Padres) is a heavy Republican supporter.

    Literally every single facet screams Republican.

  14. "The 2nd Amendment was never written with the notion that individuals should have military weapons"

    How do you expect the American citizenry to deflect an invading force if they can't meet and match the firepower level of said invading force?

    Asymmetrical warfare isn't something most Americans are capable of.

  15. 4 grand owed in debt? on PayPal Told Customer Her Death Breached Its Rules (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    The only thing I see that being from is a credit card debt through PayPal, otherwise there's no fucking way in hell a PayPal account like that should be in a negative that deeply.

  16. Re:iOS 11.4 is draining my battery on Is iOS 11.4 Draining Your iPhone's Battery? You're Not Alone (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Except its well known that despite Apple's supposed warranty/support claims, the 4S is stuck on a 9.x version of iOS and is barely 'supported.'

  17. Bench marks are bullshit synthetic garbage and are not to be relied upon.

    EVER.

    Next, Apple hardware almost NEVER outperforms the competition once it has a few updates applied.

    See, I don't need to do research, because I do what's called "actual field testing" something that is apparently foreign to your mind.

    That's why my most recent phone purchase was the Kyocera Duraforce Pro. Half the price of an iGadget, far more robust and solidly-built, HARDWARE CAMERA BUTTONS, underwater operation capability, headphone and USB jacks, wired and wireless charging, and more.

  18. "You are allowed to do anti-competitive things unless you are a monopoly."

    Wrong.

  19. "I have a 32GB Android phone and Google apps consume less than 500MB of space"

    You lying sack of shit.

    Fact #1: GOOGLE PLAY SERVICES ALONE is 538 MB.
    Fact #2: Chrome is 203 MB.
    Fact #3: "Google" itself is 214 MB.
    Fact #4: Google Maps is 181 MB.

    With 4 facts we're more than double your '500MB' bullshit claim. All that took was sorting by fucking size in the app manager.

    Fact #5: You have no fucking clue what you're talking about.

  20. Stating that something is wrong with your head - because you made a bad statement - is not an ad hominem attack no matter how you try to youtube (that's not a valid source) yourself out of it.

    Then to boot, your fallacy is the Fallacy Fallacy.

    Back to school for you, moron.

    The guy ain't no Al Bundy, come on. He's too physically retarded to have ever made it onto a football team with all that time spent sitting down and being a nerd.

    "It entirely eliminates several attack vectors and attack surfaces that software written in C or C++ are vulnerable to."

    That only happens when you're a n00b-ass that never picked up a proper programming book - e.g. most Rust programmers.

  24. "Hell, as a high school student I was forced by, my teacher, to sign up for Twitter or I would instantly fail their class. They did not seek my permission / willingness nor that of my parents. It was either: Agree to the ToS, or fail this semester."

    BULLSHIT. As a minor you cannot be forced to enter into any agreement with any entity. So either you're full of shit or you need to sue the fuck out of that teacher. Given that you're posting as AC, I'm going to say you're full of shit unless you name the school and teacher.

  25. "They sell ads, not personal data."

    Bullshit. I can buy info right now that tells me when I was last getting into or leaving a vehicle. All collected and sold by GOOGLE through my Android phone. Collected even when I told it fucking not to.

    Take your ass to a mental hospital, because it is clear that you do not reside in reality.
