Think of it this way, you keep training more people who aren't getting jobs right now anyway, you now have laid-off retail workers with no career path because if we 20+ year experienced programmers aren't getting jobs, what makes you think they will?

Sorry, I couldn't help myself.

How much emphasis has been put on investigating the potential backdoors put in? Yes it's sleek, but what has been done to ensure it's not the biggest privacy violation since CISCO and Huawei?

Meanwhile on Caprica, Graystone Industry files a copyright claim.

Like literally, DDoSing is illegal. This is like slapping the hand on a murderer and saying "Can you please not murder?"

Perhaps if more local news stations offered streaming, on-demand viewing of their segments a week at a time, they would get more viewership. People don't work 9-5 anymore and watch the news exactly at 8-10.

Clearly, that Asari has been up to no good. I have a good lead by someone in the Cerberus Network that she should be investigate. You may not know her, but you would remember her mother. Matriarch Benezia sided with Saren, a rogue SPECTRE. We all remember what happened with the Citadel. #NeverForget.

Not a lot of great reasons to log into Slashdot these days but honoring Roblimo is unquestionably one of them. The man and his editing calculations will be forever missed ...

So a country of 5.5M is going to eliminate coal as 10% of its energy supply. Golf clap. In the meantime, OPEC member Nigeria is set to have its population hit 400M and be the 3rd largest in the world, jumping past Pakistan, Brazil, Indonesia and the US, by 2050. Ethiopia with 188M and the DR Congo with 195M are going to push Mexico and Russia out of the top-10 by 2050. By 2050 the ~1300M more people in Africa, and ~900M more in Asia will get most of their energy from... wait for it... fossil fuels! By 2050 Finland will have a population of 5.8M.

The article they posted is literally the most ironic reason to rage quit and fork. The article talks about how strict codes of conduct hinder creative outlets and can damage a society by firing people like Isaac Newton for who they are.

I don't play WoW either, but I used to play it. It used to be a multi-million dollar market selling digital currency (in-game gold). Chinese gold farms popped up and made so much money doing it. Even Steve Bannon got involved with it. http://www.avclub.com/article/... It's not seen as just a game to people like Steve Bannon. It was seen as an opportunity.

Say what you will about CO2, that its emission must be curtailed to limit warming, etc. But _it is not a pollutant_, and calling it that is bullcrap spin.

A broken clock happens to be right twice a day. I don't know nor care what your political affiliation is, or what you think mine is, but I'm more concerned with privacy and having things the government doesn't have its hands in. There's a lot of things I support the government(s) having their hand in, in terms of healthy civilization maintenance, but when is too much, too much? Perhaps they should also monitor Blizzard's gold currency system for World of Warcraft too. Never know if those nerds are terrorists in Azeroth!

I get that things like digital currencies can be used to money launder and fund nefarious activity, but can anything be sacred anymore? What about the mining aspect? Is big brother going to monitor GPU usage too?

Shameful to publish a political article lying to your own offspring.
