There is no such thing as an “international copyright” like that.

JFC, you people so confident in your ignorance. You need to take internet time out for a few days and think about why you post stuff you are ignorant of.

No, I do not respect the law; especially copyright.
Copyright is used by billionaire to control culture. Let me know when the make copyright law sane again.

There is tech better then drone for taking out a M1A1

Let me know when we used a M1A1 against a major industrial power.

Or, you know, pay attention to what they do and say; which is expansionist. They are building infrastructure for countries around the globe.

They think we are stupid.

Watch the great VMware Product Manager and Engineering exodus. GCP is hiring like CRAZY to build an operations framework and infrastructure stack that costs less and simpler to operate. Then there's Amazon Outpost, for the on-prem diehards. It'll take a couple years, because changing ops is hard, but there is the direction for enterprises.

"Look, they KILLED VMware! It seems like we can save money by porting our VMs to Azure cloud."

Off topic: Approximately how many "silvergun" accounts do you operate?

Since it's not in the summary, the measured mass "is about 80 times the mass of a proton, or approximately 80,000 MeV/c2."

I wish I understood how this works... It seems like this is saying that the mass of this one particle is greater than the first quarter of the elements in the periodic table, and greater than many molecules. Does mass mean something different in the world of force carriers?

I'd like to offer a counterpoint to your critique of Slashdot's moderation system....

My time is limited. I hardly ever want to read all ~50 comments on a story. That's where moderation comes in handy: filter out all the low-point comments and boom! I can get the gist of the comments in just a couple minutes.

I'll even go a step further and say that often, group-think is useful! Consider a non-techy person such as myself: A story about some new piece of hardware or a new scientific discovery, usually has comments that cut through the PR BS and give the straight dope.

The fact that Slashdot stereotypically attracts a smarter-than-average crowd is why I'm here.

There is a lot of cynicism in this thread about "brigade modding." But more often than not, if a comment has been moderated to +5 Insightful, it usually is.

I don't know. Just my two cents.

Has anyone else noticed that there has been a lack of moderation points for the last week or so?

All of the stories I've clicked on for the last few days have dozens and tens of dozens of comments, all bunched up around 0 and 1 point. A handful of 2's, and no comments moderated to 3, 4 or 5.

What is going on? It seems like the Slashdot algorithm for distributing moderation points has stalled.

I swear. LOL

It really seems that morale at Facebook is plummeting to zero - with Zuckerberg hitting the accelerator.

60,000 people died of COVID during January in the US alone.

But the professional medical politician says, "It's a just a phase - it's over."

Yes. Joe Rogan interviews fascists with a record of inciting violence, like Gavin McInnes, without prejudice or even informed curiosity. How very neutral and unimpeachable.

Watch.
