Area Newsgroup reported that a Silicon Valley engineer ultimately earns more over their lifetime than the average NFL football player.
This is the stupidest thing I've seen on the Internet since 4pm.
The average career length of an NFL player is 3.3 years. The average career length of a Silicon Valley engineer will probably be closer to 40 years. Longer if they "reform" Social Security and add years to the retirement age.
Let me choose to patronize restaurants that give me safer-to-eat food or food in packaging that is less likely to leak grease or mayo through the wrapper.
If they're giving you your food in a wrapper, it's not a restaurant.
You've gotta be fucking kidding me with this. Of course more IP addresses = higher GDP. I'm going to see if I can get funded to conduct a study on whether or not areas with more IP addresses also have more routers and wifi hotspots.
They also covered up the fact that the Bowling Green Massacre of 2011 was a false flag operation and thousands of Muslims in New Jersey were in the streets cheering.
I'm puzzled as to how "conservative parts of America" even know how much sex goes on in Silicon Valley.
Because Peter Thiel told them so.
See it's a neat little circle. Billionaire makes a claim. Money transmutes fake news into facts for conservative America. Conservative America rewards this magical transmutation by spreading these newly-created facts via social media.
It cuts out the middle-men, like scientists and journalists, who might otherwise share real facts that are inconvenient to billionaire, thus closing the circle. Efficiency!
The problem with net neutrality isn't the stated goals, it's the way the left went about it.
You numpty. How else are you going to "go about" net neutrality without regulation?
The legislation was so overreaching and awful that dumping it along with the neutrality provisions was the right choice.
There has never been any net neutrality "legislation". It's only been regulation. If you can't even get the basic facts straight, you should stay out of this discussion.
(Also the economists who felt that it was unnecessary and counter-productive.)
Who are these "economists" who felt net neutrality was unnecessary and counter-productive?
Say, are you having Kellyanne Conway write your Slashdot posts now?
If a person wanted to suggest action against our President in a read-between-the-lines manner, he might have said exactly what you said, knowing that many people who read his words would see his intent.
Unfortunately, when someone like you uses those same exact words without any such implied/suggested meaning, many people will see an intent that is not there.
Maybe we should have a moratorium on all historical facts relating to fascists, white supremacists and all-around jackoffs as long as Trump is president, just to be safe, right?
I guess any mention of how Adolph Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Ikki Kita or Corneliu Zelea Codreanu came to violent deaths can be construed as a threat on Trump, so maybe we should redact those sections of the encyclopedia until Trump is safely out of office. Because people might misconstrue.
Please understand that your post was indistinguishable from someone who wanted to suggest an action against our current President without actually saying so.
Except for the fact that it didn't "suggest" anything at all. It just pointed out a historical fact.
If you are advocating assassination, this is wrong in so many ways.
Again, I ask you why you think my post had anything to do with the president. It was nothing more than a historical fact about a democratically-elected elected prime minister of Italy.
At least you're thinly veiling your allusions to sedition
Why would you think I'm alluding to sedition? You read a simple historical fact about Mussolini and immediately think it has some similarities to current events?
I think it's instructive in a discussion of "fake news" that you had to go to "www.icetrend.com" to find a copy of the photos that were literally everywhere in the media.
Buy the cheapest Apple Watch, buy a good third-party band instead of buying Apple's overpriced band, and your total cost of ownership will be comparable to the cost of maintaining your Rolex
The big difference between a Rolex and an Apple Watch is that when people see you with a Rolex, they'll think it's a fake, but when they see you with an Apple Watch, they'll think you're a douchebag.

Sure it is.

Isn't NASA that place where liberals think there's global warming? How are clueless people like that going to get a car to fly?

Enough to punch.
Astrology and magic spells are a big part of every major religion. I'm serious. Look it up.
No, it's totally uncool. But it is kind of fun to watch the Trump supporter snowflakes cry about it.
On the other hand, punching nazis is definitely cool. And 100% patriotic.

That's offensive and racist against white people.
Floridians aren't stupid, they just have alternative intelligence.

So, your "economists" is one guy? You used google and could only find one economist who thinks net neutrality is a bad idea?
You numpty. How else are you going to "go about" net neutrality without regulation?

Whatever else you read into it is on you.
Why would you think I'm alluding to sedition? You read a simple historical fact about Mussolini and immediately think it has some similarities to current events?
I'm pretty sure in the case of Mussolini, the death and destruction preceded his ignoble demise.
On April 28, 1945, the Italian people killed their fascist leader and then desecrated his corpse in a public square.
You just made my point: Fact-checking is a preoccupation of the Left and fake news is a right-wing phenomenon.
That's why in an age of fake news we have fascists ascendant. Fascism can only spread when people are convinced that nothing is true.
Yeah, but the bad news is that the CEO is now president of the United States.
You're absolutely right. It's not treason. It's an act of war.
But you know the old saying, In Soviet USA, you ransom government.
Not quite. The reference is to theater, which is something people had in the days before Netflix.
