"At least with Beanie Babies and Magic The Gathering cards you can sell them in flea markets. Can't even do that with bitcoin (though I guess you could sell old hard drives or USB flash drives with useless data on them in the flea market)
Somebody who is inspired by Nazi imagery is an idiot-fanboy. Or somebody into cosplay.
Anybody who is inspired by Nazi ideology is just a plain idiot. It's fun in your adolescence to latch onto crap that explains why all the older people are dumb, why history is over and that there's a simple 'plan' that can just be adopted by force to fix everything. That's how 'neo-liberals' and 'neo-cons' are born. The Democratic and Republican party are full of those fools. We have a lot of them here on Slashdot, too. It's simply a matter of waving the proper flag and namecalling the people with 'different' opinions.
The encoding clearly identifies AppleDevice users who don't know how to configure them. That's a plus, actually. It flags those individuals to "the rest of us."
Slashdot Administrators: I would suggest an IP ban for AC posters who attack logged-in account holders. Not for people who simply disagree, but for people who stalk specific logged in members.
I would prefer to be notified so I can make an informed choice. Not have my iGadget mysteriously degrade performance in a time period when it would encourage me to buy a new unit. Perhaps it should prompt for three choices:
1. Accept performance degradation. 2. Accept reduced battery life. 3. Come in to replace battery.
Just because the Nazi's discovered some things of benefit to man kind does not mean doing experiments on live humans was a good plan.
I just finished a book on Unit 731 which was the Japanese unit doing experiments (lots of vivisection of prisoners without anasthesia, among other things) using humans during the 1930s-1945,
It's time to throw away the meme of 'the Germans doing experiments on live humans' as the default. Because almost nobody in Unit 731 ever was punshed for any of the activities they performed. The US Military swooped in immediately after the defeat of the Japanese to contain these folks and get their data and findings. The Japanese medical people who conducted the experiments, mainly on Chinese civillians, but even in some cases on Russian, French, and American POWs, went on to become prominent members of the Japanese medical establishment.
There is even some evidence that the US redirected these monsters and continued the research under the auspices of the US Military in Korea. Yes, biological warfare by the US Military against Koreans after the Japanese were defeated.
The German scientists who conducted research oh human subjects were punished, but they shouldn't be the textbook examples. They did far less of it, for a shorter period of time than the Japanese, and the Japanese scientists and physicians got away with it and lived long prosperous lives afterwards.
Everybody should read up on the history of Unit 731, because it mysteriously was not included in our educational curriculum.
The ACA is dead without the IRS penalizing people for not buying a 'health care plan' (which isn't something you buy, it's something you do). Nobody will be penalized, the whole thing will die because nobody is throwing their money away on 'plans' they don't need.
Particularly younger people will benefit from the recent changes. Healthy 20 year olds won't be paying for hip replacement surgery for 84 year olds with six month life expectancy.

Michelle Bachman, or will it be Condoleezza Rice?
I will tag on:

Well, let's just say it's NSFW.
Why would anybody want to take over tents that nomadic Arabs have wandered away from?
It's certainly risen to more than Hillary can afford.
Which is a lot, mind you.

The back side of Antifa flags always have Pepe logos on them. When they flap in the wind is when the riot starts.

Also Saudi Arabia is not mentioned. A country who has done more to destabilize Syria than Israel.

Starvation is not a very ethical means of contraception. And yet that appears to be what you are advocating.
You give them access to the sensors on an old phone that you're not using anymore. It repurposes the phone as a security device.

Hey, MTG cards could be used as a currency, (or for the placeholders in a pyramid scheme) too!
It is called 'wealth transfer' when people and organizations are allowed to keep their money rather than it being taxed away.
It's a weird mindset that mostly Liberals and 'Progressives' engage with.

Without government funding, life itself is impossible.
Tackle away, dude. That is, unless you were trying to be ironic in your post.
Why does the left spend traffic so heavily in sexualized imagery? It even gets to seem like homophobic imagery if you think about it much.
The Toxic candidate in Alabama nearly won.
Most Republicans thought he was repugnant, but weren't going to elect a Democrat to spite reality.

The Statue of Liberty was a gift to the USA from France.
The Eiffel Tower was a gift to France from the USA.
We would just have to stay in the older parts of our house, where the wires are silk wound with cloth insulation, and routed with knob and tube wiring
'green and black', obviously.
300 millihertz? That's kinda fast. Better slow it down a bit and be safe.
