  1. Re:Americans can't even deal with brown skin... on Would You Fear Alien Life or Welcome It? (cnet.com) · · Score: 2

    It's ok to be white.
    You're not responsible by what your ancestors did and you have no impossible "historical debt" to pay
    Just treat everyone with respect, independent of their physical characteristics and everything fix itself eventually.

  2. Stay calm, unless you're RIAA/MPAA. on Would You Fear Alien Life or Welcome It? (cnet.com) · · Score: 4, Funny

    Given the only truly unique resource we have is our media, there is a possibility that the aliens would be here just to pirate everything, fly away and sell it on some space market.

  3. It will certainly hold the record for the longest drift.

  4. Re: Fastest transition to 3rd world nation? on Trump Administration Wants To Fire 248 Forecasters At the National Weather Service (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    Just voting for another president and hopping everything will work won't do it.
    It got to a point you need to actually change the laws to curbstomp the control the corporations have over the government, because no matter who you vote, even if he's honest, he won't be able to change shit.

  5. Re:GODDAMN RUSSIANS! on Facebook Lost Around 2.8 Million US Users Under 25 Last Year (recode.net) · · Score: 2

    They don't actually need to hack or pay anything, just release a new version of tetris with their new instructions encoded in the block piece order and that's it!

  6. Re:But where are the diversity success stories? on Why Hiring the 'Best' People Produces the Least Creative Results (qz.com) · · Score: 1

    Race and gender are not as nearly as important for the job as the actual skills and knowledge.
    But if you hire just by the skills and knowledge, you end up having a quite diverse cast anyway, as long your test don't consist in "do you have the right connections?" which generally ends up in a bunch of white people with extremist tendencies.

    People like you make too easy for nazis like Richard Spencer to sell their shit, as you're too busy screaming nazi at everything and sweeping stuff under the rug and not wasting any time by actually thinking and arguing.

  8. Re:But where are the diversity success stories? on Why Hiring the 'Best' People Produces the Least Creative Results (qz.com) · · Score: 2

    You want diversity of point of views and skills, not "that" diversity.

  9. Re:Sure, it runs it much slower than the PS4 or Xb on Hackers Manage To Run Linux On a Nintendo Switch (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    It's a portable gaming system pretending it is also a tv console to pretend nintendo didn't dropped the tv console market.
    But on the other hand, it does have the smallest gap to the consoles a nintendo portable ever did.

  10. Until youtube starts to strike your channel, such as happened with Mr.Cody several times.

  11. I should not be called an "ecofriend" if i constantly bash baby seals dead with clubs just because i call myself an ecofriend.
    Titles and descriptions are earned by action, not words.

  12. Re:It's more or less still all that on YouTube Will Remove Ads, Downgrade Discoverability of Channels Posting Offensive Videos (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Cody is not getting just demonetized, he's getting actual youtube strikes that can ban him from the platform completely.

  13. Re:Benevolent Overloards on Twitch To Ban Users For 'Hate' on Other Platforms (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    And then you get banned from twitch anyway.
    To not mention that this could slip down to stuff like "hate speech against corporations", such as telling how your phone exploded on your face, or sent all your personal data to some advertising company.

  14. They only do what their bosses tell em to do.
    And their boss want some nice buzzwords he can spout to the shareholders, and tell em "see? we're going even googlier this time!"

  15. Means the application will crash if you use the wrong pronoun to refer to it.

  16. Re:"Publisher Says" ... nuff said on Cloudflare Is Liable For Pirate Sites and Has No Safe Harbor, Publisher Says (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 1

    Cloudflare should just stop providing service for this publisher in particular and accidentally states that they did.

  17. Re:You cannot fight alphabet, or can you? on YouTube Will Put Disclaimers On State-Funded Broadcasts To Fight Propaganda (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    They will be hitting several SJWesque targets as well such as BBC.

  18. Re:ridiculousness of gamer culture on Nintendo Switch Outsells Wii U In 10 Months (variety.com) · · Score: 4, Informative

    Every console have a game library that is a fraction of the previous console library at it's first year for very obvious reasons.

  19. When someone can just point at you and tell you harassed/molested em and everyone will automatically believe, it's a quite dangerous person to hire, unless you're willing to record EVERYTHING that happens in your company, so you can show up the tapes.

  20. Re:Ha aha ha. US Politics and blame. on Dutch Intelligence Agents Watched Russia Hack the DNC (volkskrant.nl) · · Score: 1

    He was the only of the two using the word "jobs" in a convincing manner.
    Everyone not doing it deserved to lose for being so hind-sighted.

    Yep.
    Of course, it will be disguised everywhere.

    It's not exactly the same as communism because you still can earn more money if you actually work.
    But the ubi money still have to come from somewhere.

  23. Re:Where does the ocean plastic come from? 10 Rive on Plastic Pollution Is Killing Coral Reefs, 4-Year Study Finds (npr.org) · · Score: 1

    Net walls to capture the plastic and reuse it?

  24. Re: It's hard to find time to be violent on New Study Finds No Link Between Violent Video Games and Behavior (dailydot.com) · · Score: 1

    "Justice with your own hands" always ends in shit, because things like due process are tossed out of the window.
    If you have a bunch of people planning to kill one or more people, well, that's what the cops are for.

  25. It's not because "the others also do it" that it's ok.
