Comment I have no faith in this succeeding (Score 0, Troll) 64

This is an administration that is trying to keep a convicted felon child rapist suffering from dementia in the presidency, who let the richest man on earth walk right into the White House and gang-rape every department he could get his hands on. There is no competency left in this rotting carcass that was such a powerful country.

Besides, all he cares about is wining and dining his billionaire buddies. He's doing nothing about record high ATM fees. Why would he give a damn about Pharma Advertising? I'm sure they've been also sending him and his campaign tons of money.

Now release the Epstein files.

Comment Here's to hoping (Score 4, Insightful) 101

Here's to hoping that this success inspires other lawsuits to follow. I'm so sick and tired of these damned settlements; every one of them carries the line "Plaintiff alleges ... as redress for these grievances, defendant will..." meaning that no one is found guilty of wrongdoing, and it can't be used to determine guilt in any other court proceeding.

Fuck our corporate overlords.

Comment Not worried one bit (Score 1) 90

I have a long-haul flight booked on a 787 coming up in two months. I'd like to get some definitive answers.

Me too...in three. And I'm not worried one bit. Do you know why?

Because there's over a thousand of them being used by airlines every year, and hundreds flying above your head as you read this. And there's not a single report of any of them having engines that flame out.

Furthermore, I've not seen any reports today of anyone dying in a commercial airplane crash. Meanwhile, about 3,260 people die every day around the world in road vehicle accidents. If you're not afraid to get behind the wheel, stop all the fear mongering with commercial aircraft.

Comment Protect free speech! (Score 1) 255

"...especially when such encroachments undermine the exercise of our fundamental right to free speech."

Let's stand resolute in our protection of free speech! Especially for the right to say that our president loves TACOs. He loves to eat TACOs so much, he was asked by a reporter how much he loved TACOs. Trump's response? He loves them so much, he could eat 8,657 of them!

Just love that free speech!

Comment Just another story about a public performer (Score 1) 56

These stories don't phase me. Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to pull back and reveal what's behind the curtain: Lots of people suffer isolation and burnout and depression. These cases are not limited to only public performers. At least this public performer is making some bank in the process. Here's to hoping she comes to the realization that she can't continue this lifestyle forever, dials back on the streaming, and uses some of those gains to get some help with her mental struggles.

Meanwhile, if you care about this story, then care about your neighbors and coworkers whom you witness going through similar traumas, and connect with them. Social bonds save lives.

(P.S. A word of warning: Don't make the same mistake I did of reading the old Slashdot story, wondering what "the old JenniCam" is up to, and click the link....Especially if you're at work.)

Chrome won the browser war fair and square

I can't figure out who is the bigger troll here...this David Heinemeier Hansson fella, or mrmash for posting this onto Slashdot.

Is "fair and square" what you call Google using its search market and internet advertising market monopoly to litter every search result and webpage with "Download Google Chrome!" ads 15 years ago?
