  1. Re:No sales taxes on purchases with Bitcoin? on Bitcoin Not Money, Rules Miami Judge In Dismissing Laundering Charges (miamiherald.com) · · Score: 1

    No. Maryland has been known to stop trucks on the Baltimore beltway from North Carolina with furniture, check the paperwork and they make sure the buyer pays their fair share in sales tax. All citizens of states with sales tax are obligated to pay sales tax on sales.

    Does it happen? Almost never.

  2. So, do you have any source for this, or is it just out of your ass (for some people that's their mouth)?

    Funny how you talk about Nato... have you read "dreams from my father" by Barry? He'll even read it to you himself. He has already destroyed American credibility abroad. Plenty of examples if you bother to read the news.

  3. Re:Anything incriminating? on 'The Hillary Leaks' - Wikileaks Releases 19,252 Previously Unseen DNC Emails (zerohedge.com) · · Score: 1

    In established US politics there is no left.

    Says who? I understand the left has done a great deal to distort what is left and right. However there is a right and there is a left. The left is almost always wrong. The right is always conservative and uses what works. That's why they're on the right. You can also think of it as left - insane and stupid, right - sane.

  4. Re: 1916 called on Maximizing Economic Output With Linear Programming...and Communism (medium.com) · · Score: 1

    You're kidding. Study their history. Know what is peasant math. Know how a whole ethnic minority was deported to Siberia. Know about all the other deadly results. Stalin was far more of a serial killer than Hitler was. Things didn't work out. That's why he had to keep killing people. Communism, Socialism hasn't worked anywhere in the world. Shortcomings of when you run out of other people's money, which always happens sooner or later.

    Seems to me that back in the 1990s they found that a programmer writes about 13 lines of correct code a day on average.

    They don't need to worry about that anymore. They simply won't prosecute them, just like Hillary. So they can feel free to talk about their illegal donations and so on.

    Hilarious though.

  8. Jokes, grants write themselves. on Scientists' Biggest Search For Dark Matter To Date Just Turned Up Nothing (sciencealert.com) · · Score: 1

    I see a bunch of jokes already on this one.

    The other part is a bunch of people will probably get their PhD on finding nothing.

  10. Re:NEVER EVER Trust Google on Google Deletes Artist's Blog and a Decade Of His Work Along With It (fusion.net) · · Score: 1

    Amazon has lost entire businesses using their cloud, more than once in 2014. I think more than once in 2015.

    I don't think it's a matter of trusting Google. I have a feeling in this case, they sent him many messages. Maybe even to an e-mail address he's long since forgotten about. This is obviously a clueless person after all. I've found googles communications with the products I was using to be excellent when they decided to terminate them. I didn't lose a bit. I also have everything backed up in multiple places.

    They're just like a lot of environmental groups, unions, political parties. They have to do something once in a while to make it seem like they're still needed. Otherwise, why have the org exist at all?

  13. The reason for all that crap is some troll out there found a way to steal money from the company.

    If he's complaining about comments, Linux must be close to perfect. Otherwise, he'd be worried about that instead.

    Hell, I'm happy if my guys leave ANY comments in their code.

    In the past I have seen very unprofessional comments. One where they bitched back and forth, calling each other names.... and so on. Even the women could get very testy.

    Understand that Hillary has been advertising. Trump hasn't. Once he starts, I think she'll nose dive, or buoy up even more.

    Make a movie about something Symantec supposedly found. Buy our software that we can't even give away anymore because it sucks so bad. The real joke is, it'll slow their machines down big time.

    It sucked back then too. I remember we had a twinkie that was on the floor of a tent, a big tent and a mouse came in. The mouse went right by it after sniffing it. That was in the 1980s. We thought - wow, the mouse has more sense than kids.

    no American should EVER support Union Busting.

    I worked for a Union, in the 1980s. I worked for minimum wage. Yes, union shop, minimum wage. If you had a problem - tough. They really couldn't care, that was local 400 in the Washington DC area. They also do Giant, Safeway and others. Same story there too, screw you. Now pay us sucker! Man I could tell you some stories that happened to me and even more recently with my Daughter in law. They damn near bankrupt her. The best they can come up with? *Sorry*. They paid up after being sued. Maybe they are in with organized crime, seems like it.

    So why shouldn't they be busted exactly? All they are good for is sucking money. Not the only ones, my wife has family in the Michigan, Ill, Ohio area. They were all union people back in the 1980s. Today union is like a cuss word. You may also get hit. They screwed them good too.

    No, Unions are past their usefulness. What they stood for has been put into law, probably in all cases. All they are good for today is wrecking what's left of America.

    Oh and BTW what you're talking about, that's Harvard Business school type stuff. Yea, they really screwed stuff up and they realize it now. I hope.

  20. No, it's her turn to be indicted and thrown in jail just like anyone else would be.

    It isn't as if he did it or approved it, someone else did it and we know it. Why is this even an issue? How about Hilary lying to the FBi and not going to jail. Directory Comey saying she's above the law? Why are we putting up with this?

    Anyhow, Trump was a Democrat after all. Even invited and Hillary actually attended his wedding. They're really buds.

    The real Nazi is Hillary. Don't think so? I dare you to go and look at the Nazi platform of the 1930s. Go ahead, what was it? Compare it to the Democratic platform. I don't see any light there. Same old crap. Free education, free health care, really dumb down education, ration health care. Nothing is free after all. Only morons and below think that. They're also into being divisive. "War on women", as if that has any basis in fact, yet some dumb women buy it.

    Republicans freed the slaves, they gave women the right to vote, they tried to give them the voting rights and Johnson shot it down 3 times (and signed it when he was president due to the riots. He said, well look here - http://canadafreepress.com/art... Look for 200 years. The Jim Crowe laws were all from Democrats in the south. Governor Wallace, etc. Yet black people think Democrats are great, even though they've held them back.

  23. Depends on Ask Slashdot: Is It Ever OK To Quit Without Giving Notice? · · Score: 1

    I've seen the whole spectrum. One guy gave a years notice. I've seen a guy that relocated himself across the country and told us almost a week later he quit the week before. Yes, thanks for telling us. We all wondered if he was murdered, taken by the Govt or something.

    The whole thing is, do you need that employer for a favorable recommendation? If you already have another job, not so much. However don't be a jackass. Don't leave people that are depending on you holding a bag. Just as you wouldn't want some else to just evaporate and leave you holding the bag. You never know when someone you screwed has a say in your future.

    Just be respectful. Don't screw others.

    I have seen a guy simply walk out due to a big disagreement with management. He was promised stuff and they told him to pound sand. He said - ok... here's my badge, pass, keys, see ya! Just send me my last check.
