The Chinese systematically steal. That is their reputation, richly deserved.

Are there 2 people who have less to offer the tech world than the Winklevi?

The GOP cavalry arrived just in time, it seems. Bad news for you third world wretches. You will have to change the world from over there.

I am really looking forward to his NCAA tournament bracket. Will he have a pre-Superbowl interview? He is a total jerkoff.

The problem is we in the US don't test a person's character before they are admited. Only identity quotas. We let in friend and foe alike, and their immediate family. The practice is toxic. The west is a Judeo-Christian culture. Those who enter must embrace it. Even the left leaning Angela Merkel has admitted that multiculturalism has failed. To directly answer your question. Yes.

Perhaps we in the west should start with curbing muslim immigration.

I use spook-mode in Emacs to greet the voyeurs at NSA all the time.

The Rockefeller's are selling, not giving their stock away. They made a dirty profit! They will have carbon on their hands forever! I am happy to be a buyer. Stock prices are low. Dividends are solid. They are excellent investments. The benefits to the economy of cheap oil outweight the negatives 3 to 1. America loves cheap gas. We have all had $200 per month raise! I used it to buy a bigger car. You treehuggers can go bugger off.

You should have written GOP lawmakers push for a permanent ban on internet taxes. But then again slashdot is just as politically biases against the right as the rest of the liberal media. The socialists who have run the country for the last 6 years wouldn't dream of it.

Upmodded for total lack of understanding of physics! They will never have enough fuel to pitch over fly 100 miles back up range. It is a fantasy propogated by the African Musk.

Just more activist trying to cause an another unwarranted hullabaloo. Diesel engines are a blessing. I ought to know. I've owned Cummins stock for many years.

No good video? In the era of rocket cam? He should say, no video he wishes to show. Elon Musk is a master propagandist.

Great idea. The people who don't make good grades get to pay for it. Socialists like Obama have inflated higher education costs with subsidies and government loans for 30 years, and they're still at it. What it really is is a sop for his allies, for the liberal elites who teach in these schools. How about the government getting out of the business or providing education grants and loans? College costs will adjust to their real value to students.

Better her than me. What did she do before Tuesday? Click on that free offer link? That would be illuminating.

I finally got to the (current, temporary) end of the the comment page on this article, and I find this particular comment somewhat ironic, given that it seems like about 80% of the comments about floppies have been pro-floppy, anti-change-for-change-sake, "maybe there's a very good reason to use floppies in this case."

It may be that most geeks seem to think that tech should be bought every six months, but certainly most Slashdot commenters seem to think otherwise (and, in general, are prone to being luddites, in my experience -- manifested as profound distrust in new technology and a dismissal of any new tech that's not ready to be useful today, right now, in its current state).
