  1. Re:How long till the eco human haters attack this? on US Wind Capacity Surpasses Hydro, Overall Generation To Follow (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Bird problem? Not here! Stop looking at the ancient, out of date, "fans" they are putting up, and do some research on helical wind generators. That's only One type of configuration!! Things are going to change - special interest groups that make these dinosaurs will get mowed down eventually.

    New Generation wind generators will have double or triple the years that current ones do. Technology moves forward because businesses want More Profits in the name of greed!!

  3. Tow trucks out of commision?? on Toronto Start-Up Will Send a Mechanic To Your Driveway To Repair Your Car On Demand (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    As a former mechanic I know I can do a lot better job at the shop. And the customer knows a brick and mortar place is more likely to be legitimate. Sorry, no dice on the spot repair scheme.

  4. So who is going to come up with honeypot strategy to lure the poachers?

  5. Not that hard to do! on FCC Chair Wants Carriers To Block Robocalls From Spoofed Numbers (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Design a computer that picks up the phone and mimics a company. For sales press 1, for hardware press 2., etc. A computer can probably record the alpha-numeric number and block it if needed. Which a phone can't do!!! You friends can dial a special code to leave a message. And prospective friends and clients can be guided in another folder to leave a message with the "operator". To this day I can't figure out why some bright individual hasn't written code for this. Add to this: If the computer is down, have a backup phone pick up the message with more rings.

    I stand accused. I meant to say the world's most tiniest violin. This is what happens when you reply to people for too many hours.

  9. I hope that I'm on the other side on the lawn before the only choice you have is buying online instead of a brick an mortar store. Cars, shoes, pants, shirts, motorcycles, and more are things that you have to "try on" before you buy. Besides; where is the social interaction. Do you like living alone without the possibility of never meeting new, real, people you never met before?

    Those drones you speak of: Where on earth will they get clean food and water?? Do you assume that angry, hungry, people will not prevent the drones from reaching their destination? (People are very observant and see patterns)

    You kind of got the first one partially right: The 'government' you are angry at, is the "puppet" of corporate puppeteers. They falsely have the appearance of a governing body. . (We don't have a government anymore - we have a corporation.). The 2nd one is true: They cater to police unions only because they can use the police as a wrecking ball.. Their police minions will get ordinary folks to comply with the insanity of, oh, let's say a governor's whims... And 'politicians' don't want the police on the side of the people. That would give unions a chance to recover from the damage, and a clear path for the people to protest against governmental wrong doing.

    Once the pendulum is set in motion it does not stop in mid swing. Millionaires will realize that they are not safe in a few years. The bigger fish gobble up the smaller fish. Just wait.

    Typical Corporations. Always stretching the boundaries on abuse. Doesn't matter what field you are in. You can be a janitor. You will.. be abused. As long as there is a surplus of people. This event will continue to grow.
