Comment The internet is for everyone (Score 1) 171

Even those who fall into of the realm of those not offended by content that would offend "any normal people".

(A group whom I suspect is larger than the group of "normal people").

The world, and thus social media is full of offensive content, trying to eliminate it all is a fool's game.

People like me would be offended by bland social media bereft of any offensive content.

Comment Oh well... (Score 1) 300

I guess there will be no marijuana available in the US as a result of this shutdown.

Wait, what? All this money, police, killing, and drugs are still widely available?

The drug gangs and the police want it to be illegal, for were it legal, it would cut into their action.

End this foolish prohibition!

Comment They are not preventing the violation of speeding (Score 1) 506

They are just cashing in on it.
Think of all the revenue loss if they prevented speeding? Municipalities would go [more] broke.
They do not wish to prevent people from engaging in the act of speeding.
Everyone should screw them over, and NOT speed. That would be justice.
On the other hand they might find some 4th Amendment violating way of making up the revenues.
Highway robbers, I say, screw 'em!

Comment Am I the only one? (Score 1) 185

Am I the only one who would rather tap in commands than speak to a device?
If I use it at home people or my dogs will assume I'm speaking to them.
Or the wife will respond with "What?".
Why use it in a public space, so people can hear what you're doing?
I'm sure there are hands free advantages for people, and I think Apple is amazing at pushing the envelope with new ways of doing things, so i'm sure I'll come around at some point.
