Don't you get it? He surely must mean he lives in America

Do the same thing on Fox News and you get the same result. What's your point?

"The problem is that government promotes irrational behavior." Citation please "It's simply for profit and there's nothing wrong with it." By this argument, the mafia should also be legal, since they are there for nothing more than profit, or any number of shady and unethical things in the world.

Most hilarious joke I heard today!

First, my PC is quite stationary. The first thing I did when I stood up my PC was to chop off its legs, so it can't run into anything including problems. Second of all, if my PC has issues, why does Microsoft recommend that I restart? I strongly feel that it should be my computer that restarts to resolve problems

That was not as much a spoiler as it was a fact. Spoiler: description of an important plot development in a television show, movie, or book which if previously known may reduce surprise or suspense We know how it ends! Duh

I know this is standard for /. but what the hell is Coogle+

Can't you at least do a basic spell check?

This is NOT true. I manually install updates on my machine because I do not like anything being installed without my knowledge. This morning, I woke up and opened up MBP. Next thing I know, I noticed a Tray Notification informing me that a Security Update has been installed. I only had one option, which was to close the notification. I was mildly irritated by this without a doubt.

You are correct. The slashdot effect would be great, but no one cares about the opinions of the common folk. We already saw that with the Net Neutrality debate on the FCC comments debacle. In the end, if you are not greasing Tom Wheeler's cock, he will not be very nice when he gives you the rim job.

I am pretty sure you are wrong! Apple and Google are working on a Chip'n Brain gadget that will allow you to just think about that purchase, and it will be delivered right to your door. Why do you think Amazon, UPS and Dominos are working so hard to get drones perfected. The Manufacturers and Retailers Ass. wants you to know that they want almost no time wasted between the time you think about a product and the time you get the product. This way, there is typically no chance of you changing your mind!

I am willing to bet that, EVEN THOUGH your facts are presented very well, and make a whole lot of sense, atleast two things will happen
1) Many people who signup after CurrentC initial rollout, either don't understand or don't care or both.
2) Retailers will "sweeten" the deal of signup with 10% off or 90% off, and all sorts of money back or cash back or discount type deals to where, these same people will care even less
3) What is worse in my opinion is that many people who understand such intricacies as you have mentioned, will also cave in, or just give up at some point for these sweet deals We see this type of mob mentality in almost every thing happening around us.
Oh, don't get me wrong. There will be a few people who will be 100% opposed to this with every fiber of their being, but that mob will be very small and will not have enough power to sway popular opinion, and will eventually be driven to fringes of society.

I am an atheist, and I was not a Christian to being with. However, after watching the debate just yesterday, I would say that the "arguments" presented by Ham were far more convincing that what Nye put together, and it felt sad. I liked Bill Nye in this other debates on such topics, but he did not bring his "A game" to this debate. There were so many points of view about why a particular scientific theory was more conclusive, or why certain theories fail, but have yet to be to be proven to be as much of a fallacy as "God did it" that Nye could have presented, but he didn't. Even his 30 minute presentation round was lacking in general. This is what allowed even more religious zealots to put even more money into making this all possible, IMO.

Everyone who lives in these 32 cities must be blessed. The state of Georgia was not in the 20 initial cities, and I know Georgia is typically last in such advancements or ground breaking news.

Why can't it be both? We love both Tesla and iPhones. Merging of the two can also lead to a great transformation. Ooooooohhhhh, I wonder when Elon Musk will make my Telsa turn into an iPhone Autobot
