  1. Re:Smart market to get into on Is Microsoft Hustling Us With 'White Spaces'? (wired.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    You do realize that Microsoft brings huge value to enterprises by simplifying the support requirements for a computing environment right? They are popular because of the easy to setup and maintain not because "the wimpy IT and business leaders want a master". FFS, IT departments would be enormous if they had to support a huge heterogeneous set of end point technologies as well as bespoke solutions that required maintenance....let alone the necessary expertise to maintain such systems from a feature set perspective and a security perspective.

  2. Oh great, the next Goop and Food Babe article.... on Could Diabetes Spread Like Mad Cow Disease? (sciencemag.org) · · Score: 1

    Good job science for writing the next article for Goop and the Food Babe.....they will just remove all hedges of knowledge and any possible explanations for this behavior and turn it into the next clean eating nonsense.

  3. Re:Why bother with Atom available? on GNOME's Text Editor gedit 'No Longer Maintained', Needs New Developers (gnome.org) · · Score: 1

    There is no reason to include a basic editor. That is an archaic practice from a time before fast internet....and again, they could just include Atom or Sublime in their DE package.

    With Atom being available and on more than just one platform why would someone care about gedit?

    false. The rate of all of those things is extremely low in all countries that restrict them and police the black market.

    dumb ass.....smart guns are so you don't worry about that crook taking your gun and using it on you. you think they will be able to hack a gun while you are pounding them in the face to get it back?

    WTF? are you kidding me? 1) Yes they did 2) It is their job to report on bad shit our leaders do 3) Retaliation against a free press from the white house is NOT ok.

  15. Right wing nut jobs trying to pass themselves off as legitimate....

  16. If that happens, this "person" who happens to be in the oval office will be committing an act of personal vengeance using the power of his office. That is UNACCEPTABLE. It is unethical and economically disastrous. What kind of business environment would we be fostering if companies could not rely on being treated fairly under the law?

  17. Re: yet it still makes sense on Seattle Minimum Wage Study Has Serious Flaws (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 1

    so, you assume people want to get assistance? You think they have an incentive to work less because we offer a safety net? Please show me the evidence that if people can get gainful employment that they will not (as a whole) choose not to work in lieu of a very difficult to get and pain in the ass process of government assistance.

  18. Re:yet it still makes sense on Seattle Minimum Wage Study Has Serious Flaws (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 1

    how you get an insightful for that comment is beyond me. The Washington study is out of step from the other studies done. Since it has significant flaws in methodology their conclusions absolutely do not make any sense. Confirmation bias at it's finest on display I would say.

    You realize how stupid you sound right? the temperature increases are happening now and will continue forward as permafrost melts releasing Methane into the air and retaining heat even more. Its called inertia. We have been speeding to a red light and we are now 30 feet from the intersection. your solution is to simply take the foot off the gas....yeah..that will work well.... You need to apply the breaks. We need active measures to remove C02 at rates faster than we put it in.

  25. Re: And yet people continue the Warming Alsrmism on Coal Market Set To Collapse Worldwide By 2040 As Solar, Wind Dominate (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    that is something that I think needs to turn around. We need Nuclear development and we need to get modern methods on line. If Trump and the Republicans could do one thing, it is pass legislation that will grant BLM land for free to companies who will build Nuclear plants, remove state and local barriers (nationalizing the permitting) and provide free or low cost insurance if they submit to rigorous oversight from the Department of Energy. If we could also get breeder reactors up and running near the primary reactors then we can solve the waste problem too.
