Comment And yet 15 years later... (Score 2, Interesting) 67

... we still can't get competent editors at slashodt. Certainly there must have been someone who minored in English or Journalism who could take care of these atrocious front-page grammar and readability issues? I've seen better writing in comment sections of code written by people who learned English as a third or fourth language.

Comment Re:So, it's a "conspiracy" if its about a Democrat (Score 1) 168

I guess if you think #OccupyResoluteDesk is conservative

President Lawnchairs actions will go down in history as demonstrably conservative. Not merely conservative, but more conservative than any president who came before him. You can debate his inner philosophy all you want, but the bills he has signed into law speak for themselves.

then you probably think Bernie Sanders is right of center.

No, Sanders is indeed left of center. His voting record as a senator mostly supports that.

I'm curious if you could offer an example of a "sane" web site.

The main reason why I don't consider this to be a "sane" web site is because they refuse to acknowledge their profound bend towards conservatism. When they clearly have a bias one way, and refuse to admit it, they are not showing good editorial sanity (regardless of whether or not their opinions are rooted in reality).

It's a "conspiracy" if its about a Democrat

No, it becomes a conspiracy when the facts are left behind and assumptions are substituted in their place. When you insist that the email debacle is a high crime because it is associated with a democrat and you want it to be associated with other conspiracies that you have helped propagate for some time, then it becomes a conspiracy.

You can drop the name "Powell" without any URL

I'm going off of other comments that were posted here on slashdot. Not that you ever follow links that I post anyways.

There is indeed a fact that Secretary Clinton was using a private email server (as someone else pointed out, this was not unprecedented; Colin Powell apparently did the same before her). However you and others are propagating a conspiracy that she did it to hide something dire. Similarly you and others are propagating a conspiracy that this somehow leads back to the Lawnchair Administration and to some grave impeachable offense.

Seems like what you want.

Me? Astroturfing? No. I vote for the guy who least wants me serving out my life in debtor's prison. If I can't make a living, then there is no other issue that matters.

That said, it would make no sense for a socialist such as myself to run an astroturfing campaign. The ones who most oppose a socialist are the corporate bigwigs who fund astroturfing campaigns. They fund your campaigns instead and tell you the astroturf is Kentucky blue.

Comment How about where you can find electric outlets? (Score 2) 40

In my travels I have found that US airports vary widely in availability of electric outlets for charging devices. For a while a lot of them were making them only available on a pay-per-use basis. Others had outlets freely available but not enough of them.

Cell service is nice and all, but being as I'm flying steerage class where I pretty well never get an outlet to plug anything in to, I'm more interested in what I can do to charge my devices before the cattle call for boarding comes up. Doubly so at hub airports where I am connecting.
