  1. Re:Twat?! on No One Wants To Buy Twitter (theverge.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Why not?!

    what is the use of a "micro-blogging social platform" or a "news service" that acts against free speech.
    as a private company they are free to ban people for hurting others' feelings (btw nothing worse can happen in that platform), but must deal with consequences.

  2. no soyuz seats = no space for nasa astronauts on NASA Has No Plans To Buy More Soyuz Seats (spaceflightnow.com) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    "boeing and spacex better get their manned capsules working by 2019"
    lol. perhaps in 2025 at >10x cost of soyuz (inflation adjusted)
    enough said.

    better lay off the astronauts till then.

  3. Re:So... on Non-Cable Internet Providers Offer Faster Speeds To the Wealthy (arstechnica.com) · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    usa, a government of the wealthy, by the wealthy, for the wealthy.

    see this news, wikileaks, or any unfiltered news, for proof.

    btw clinton is no abe lincoln. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

  4. obviously somebody at /. does not get the humor on g@y nigg@r comments that has littered the threads. bet they never heard of the movie http://www.imdb.com/title/tt02... either.
    even this non lame comment about a real movie and comments encountered a lameness filter and i had to use @.

  5. if you are an ignorant born idiot that believe all the crap conspiracy theories that comes from clinton camp, don't trust duckduckgo, use google.
    enjoy fodder while you get fleeced like a good sheep.

  6. Won't this simply push desktop users to use the mobile site, and if needs be, spoof their browser identifier?

    for good politically untampered and unmonitored search results switch out of google altogether .
    start with duckduckgo.com which has improved greatly during past year.

  7. Re:I can't answer the question either on Google Creates AI Program That Uses Reasoning To Navigate the London Tube (theguardian.com) · · Score: 2

    human language is ambiguous and there is never a single meaning. there are meanings(plural) depending on each of the contexts of what is described, who is describing it, who is receiving it, what is perceived, what is assumed, etc.etc..

    any so called ai boiling down something to a single meaning, even a useful meaning(which seems to be the aim rather than achievement of such "ai" so far), is simply dumbing it down (stripping its intelligence if you will) to level of maths.

    would be fun to feed this "ai" some good poetry and ask for meaning.

    with bloody war criminal scumbag like jared cohen working for google, they have serious credibility issues when it comes to news bias.

    imdb lists(or aims to list) and allows its users to rate, all movies produced at all times at any place.

  12. great if possible on Milo Yiannopoulos Wants To Buy 4Chan, Promises Free Speech Haven (hollywoodreporter.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    sad that so called social media as they expand try to restrict speech to what is acceptable in a drawing room of bourgeois white women, and internet has to depend on a self described faggot troll to consciously create a truly free speech haven.

  13. Re:A momentary look of genuine anger from Hillary on Clinton Responds To WikiLeaks During Debate, And Blames Russian Hackers (qz.com) · · Score: 0, Troll

    so she got angry that terrorists she funded and still supports, are going to get defeated and annihilated (btw same terrorists' other supporters are funding her campaign) along unfortunately with their human shields (since assad has offered evacuation routes repeatedly for civilian and even armed people, nobody needs to die, just leave).

    chew this too; total casualties at aleppo is nothing compared to various bombings and invasions and coups by conducted by usa in many many places in past year alone. (all of which had mass murderer clinton's full support.)

    anyone electing clinton is supporting direct mass murder, torture, and resource looting.

    vote for hillary. stains your hand with innocents' blood!

    so don't cry if victims attack you, your family , and fellow supporters .

  14. Re:No they dont on O'Reilly Gives Away Free Programming Ebooks (oreilly.com) · · Score: 2

    don't be so negative about everything.
    this is not ideal, but it is good. and not a lie.

  15. Re:US resident for 60 years... on Baltimore Police Took 1 Million Surveillance Photos of City (go.com) · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    if ideal was to turn the land of the free to land of the herd, home to irresponsible(how could they be responsible? they are not free) welfare junkies immersed in an ignorant, superficial, culture of death, it is nearing full realization in usa.

  16. lesson purge males = sure fail and bankruptcy on Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer Led Illegal Purge of Male Employees, Lawsuit Charges (mercurynews.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    mayer never learned that civilization and all good things are results of males trying to impress women.
    -
    anyway,
    companies should stick to making money for investors through legal means.
    companies should not be engaged in politics and social justice activism and engineering(unless that part of their business, as with some pr or lobbying firms ).

    if investors and employees want to engage in any of that, do it privately with own money.

    but they want to do "good"(usually for their own self interested motivations) with other peoples' money.

  17. artificial cells branded as nano-machines on 'Nano-Machines' Win European Trio Chemistry Nobel Prize (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    " nano-machines", "world's first smart materials" etc!?
    rather they are basically organic material like natural cells, on the same scale, doing similar things.
    award is deserved because they are artificial and hopefully controllable and customizable.

    but we should not forget, that we can also sometimes control natural cells and other organic material, with chemicals etc already.

    anyway silly branding,buzz words, and hype, will only do disservice on the long run by creating false impressions.

  18. Re:Identifying the user?? on CloudFlare Working On New System That Removes CAPTCHAs For Tor Users (softpedia.com) · · Score: 0

    one should always be careful using anything, as sjw infested, as western intelligence infested, and as quick to jump to convictions without proof or crime, as tor now is.

  19. Re:Why is this here? on WikiLeaks' Big Tuesday Announcement Will Now Take Place Via Video (thehill.com) · · Score: 1

    after vainly pushing anti trump stories for months, recent increase in pro trump tilt in /. summitries is due to editors here wising up to the fact that readers and commenters here are generally pro trump (just look at the moderation points of comments in any trump/clinton/election comments; evidence is definitive ).

  20. steal what's verfied on French Banks Offer Credit Card Numbers That Change Every Hour (thememo.com) · · Score: 2

    instead of being a "huge blow" this might help the criminals, since something algorithmically predictive that depends on other permanent numbers or id info, must be verified,

  22. "people"?! on Netflix Goes Down, People Freak Out and Discover Real Life · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    "Netflix Goes Down, People Freak Out and Discover Real Life"

    to equate lifeless netflix junkies with "people" is a stretch.
    what next? will couch potatoes be called people too?

    there is a word "sheeple", to describe such, if there is ever any need to notice such.

  24. Re:Makes perfect sense on New iPhone 7 Case Brings Back the Headphone Jack (thenextweb.com) · · Score: 1

    Why are people so pissed off that a third party has completely resolved the biggest issue with the iPhone 7 in less than 3 weeks?

    It's just ridiculous. Don't like the iPhone? Don't buy one. Like the iPhone 7 except for not having a phono jack? This solves your single issue with the product.

    having to pay extra to get basic functionality is not "resolving" the "biggest issue" of deprivation of that functionality.

    but i agree herd animals who are fooled in to buying overpriced apple products (=all) through hype deserve no sympathy.
