    Ok, did you see anything wrong with it besides the name?

    BTW, how's the weather in Moscow this time of year?

    CNN isn't a troll, they're the ones that feed the trolls and respond to every stupid thing

  4. But more importantly, people that might have voted for Clinton didn't show up to polls.

    Take a look at Wisconsin for example:

    In 2012, Obama received 1,613,950 votes, in 2016 Clinton received 1,382,210
    In 2012, Romney received 1,408,746 votes, in 2016 Trump received 1,409,467

    The voters for the Democratic candidate dropped 15%, while the voters for the Republican candidate stayed roughly the same.

    Clinton wasn't an exciting candidate, and smear campaigns/fake news articles helped turn off voters.

  5. Thanks to this, my record of 5.52 seconds is now on top.

    Each frame of the game is roughly 0.03 seconds so it's not actually possible to get 5.52 - you should claim your record is 5.54 instead

    I'm guessing they used some machine learning algorithm and included email domain as one of the features. Makes you wonder what else they included

    Well guess what? I'm going to hack your email and you'll be getting dogfood WHEN YOU STILL HAVE SOME! AHAHAHAHA

  8. Re:EVs won't sell in the inner city on Ford is Throwing $11 Billion at Its Electric Car Problem (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Obviously many people won't be interested in cars at all in the city, but Paris has a number of electric car charging posts for street parking. Same thing could be expanded in large cities in the US if there was enough demand for it

  9. Re:General lesson - same problem as the Concorde on Airbus A380, Once the Future of Aviation, May Cease Production (nytimes.com) · · Score: 3, Informative

    Your phone probably has a barometer on it - I use the app "PressureNet" to graph changes in air pressure.

  10. Well I'd prefer that over continuous ads

  11. Re:Why is it better than scanner on back? on 'I Tried the First Phone With An In-Display Fingerprint Sensor' (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    When the phone's on a surface or in a mount (like in a car) the back might not be accessible.

  12. Re:How does it compare? on Wireless Charging Nears Unification As Powermat Cedes To Qi (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    It's slower, but still fast enough to fully charge over night. It's less efficient, but phones aren't huge power draws.
    The range is small, you have to put your phone on a slab, like a night stand or dedicated pocket in a car.
    Best of all, you can STILL use wired charging!

  13. Having more electric cars = reduction of fossil fuels and lowering of pollution.

    Subsidizing electric cars = more electric cars.

    Also, more electric cars means they will become less expensive and benefit from larger scale production.

    From price comparison, electric cars sometimes cost more (depends the range you want), but from a societal point of view, they're needed.

  14. Sure fake news can be expanded to cover a range of questionable stories, but there are some like "Clinton has brain cancer, will be dead in 6 months" that have no basis in fact

  15. Re:we are just rolling over and letting the nazi t on France's President Macron Wants To Block Websites During Elections To Fight 'Fake News' (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 1

    I'd say the nazis are ideologically closer to the right wing candidate that Macron beat. I'd have a lot of concerns about any sort of censorship (especially one with political ties), but you have to admit there's a problem when you get people believing stuff like "Clinton ran a sex ring out of a pizza place" and some nut job walks in there with a gun.

  16. Keep reading! Might also read up on advantages to reducing fossil fuel usage and lowering pollution.

  17. Sounds like you need to read up on how taxes and government work

  20. Retiring is different than Switching Jobs on Ask Slashdot: When Is the Right Time To Discuss Retirement With Your Employer? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Since you're not going to move to another job in the industry, your employer will likely want you to stick around and train a replacement. IF they're a reasonable company, they won't be pushing you out the door if you tell them you're going to retire, they'll be planning the remainder of the time you have with them carefully.

    The deal 100% existed, no one disputes that. Obviously you didn't click the link to see the Fox News video explaining what went down.

  22. Re:97 cents worth of ads??? on Russia-Linked Accounts Were Active on Facebook Ahead of Brexit (ft.com) · · Score: 2

    The Uranium One conspiracy has been thoroughly debunked by now, but the Russian interference is ongoing and still relevant. Clinton isn't even a public figure these days, but Trump is president (in part due to Russian interference).

    The right's newfound Russia Defending Syndrome is beyond parody.

    Doesn't look like either of those things are happening. It's some writer describing a trend that's more common, and old people getting confused by what's going on.

  25. More like a dorm really. A commune/compound/cult implies they're more self containing whereas this is just described as a living area, not working.
