  1. Re:1984 on George Orwell's '1984' Tops Amazon's Bestseller List (theguardian.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    I see you are one of those fools who believes knowledge is power..

    Quite right citizen, ignorance is strength.

    Lucky you, we'll have even more coming to Europe

  3. Re:Gives us a tax break! on Microsoft May Halt the Expansion of a UK Datacenter Due To Brexit (onmsft.com) · · Score: 1

    This is silly. The UK is not proposing putting tariffs on anything - part of the argument for Brexit (which I voted against) is that the UK could have more free trade deals with everyone else and avoid EU tariffs.

    Agree, the chances on the tariffs for goods coming from China being higher are very low. However the data sharing issue is real, currently a data-centre in the UK can store data for EU companies without any issue. I hope that the EU will allow this to continue, as in many cases it will benefit them, but they could decide to be difficult.

    Since he said that he doesn't believe the intelligence services I wouldn't be surprised if it blows up. An exhaustive investigation will show that the Russians were to blame!

    In the future we will all go back to black and white crt wooden tvs.

    Who else is going to bid for land that's surrounded entirely by someone else's land

    We could crowd-source, each have a small share of ownership and party on the land he wants!

    It's not as though he had it written on the side of a bus or something ....oh wait!

  8. That's one step above... on NASA Is Making New Robots That Can Control Themselves (vice.com) · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Robots That Can Control Themselves

    That's one step above muslims. They are always complaining that people make them do violent things by drawing cartoons, saying that they are not peaceful, suggesting that killing gays is wrong, and so on.

    But will they beat them in withdrawing support? Google are still the fastest at this.

  12. Are there plans to tighten Ansible Integration on Interviews: Ask Red Hat CEO Jim Whitehurst A Question (redhat.com) · · Score: 1

    We use and love Ansible, but it still seems to be a separate product. Are there plans to integrate it more? Having it as an integrated deployment option for JBOSS Operations network (JON) would be good.

    Why not just make a giant pakora?

  14. In Soviet Russia you service the dog.

  15. I noticed how libtards register their dogs as service dogs so that they can take them everywhere in planes, restaurants (including on top of tables), shops, etc. That made me realize even more how fair and great open carry truly is.

    What's your point? Are you scared of service dogs and think you might need to shoot one?

  16. Because a lot of people "browse" TV on Ask Slashdot: Why Did 3D TVs and Stereoscopic 3D Television Broadcasting Fail? · · Score: 1

    In a cinema you sit down and watch a film. Sometimes you do the same with a TV but a lot of the time some or all people watching will be doing something else. They may be browsing the internet on their phone, glancing at the TV occasionally, cooking but stopping to watch interesting news items, or just coming in to see what the others are watching. If you can't see clearly without putting on some special glasses this becomes anoying

  17. Surely since we have three colour receptors in our eyes three colours at the peak frequency for each would be able to reproducce all colours? (excepting the small number of women who have two types of cone

    So are you suggesting that silicon valley be returned to the Native Americans?

  20. Re:Predicts accident on Tesla Autopilot 'Predicts' Accident Before It Happens (engadget.com) · · Score: 1

    The notion of prediction is not applicable to a partially observable, stochastic environment.

    Of course it is! A weather forecast is a prediction. Someone saying that a particular horse is most likely to win a race is a prediction. Of course in all cases there is only a certain probability of it being correct, but it is still a prediction.

  21. Re:Got nothing to hide? on Turkey Blocks Tor's Anonymity Network (engadget.com) · · Score: 2

    If you have nothing to hide you should have nothing to fear.

    Wait. Oh, I'm sorry.

    If you have nothing to hide you should hope the leader of your country doesn't suffer from delusional paranoia and sees enemies everywhere.

    This is a Muslim country we're talking about, just not being a Muslim (or the wrong type of Muslim) will make you an enemy

    And the Internet Archive is afraid of the USA?

    Because they are currently in the USA and under the USA's jurisdiction. It would have been worse if they were in Europe with the "right to be forgotten", etc.
