I remember when Slashdot had articles that were not clickbait articles with no content and screenshots of other sites. Can't they at least find a semi-respectable source.

Didn't they learn anything from the Butlerian Jihad?

Do no evil...... It was their mantra. Privacy is a thing of the past if you want a smart phone.

Is the price rising because of a real value, or inflated because of people thinking they will get rich quick? I predict a lot of sad investors. I'd think most businesses would shy away from accepting BitCoin unless the currency has some sort of stability.

Too many people with no manners out on Black Friday. I had some lady try to run me over with her shopping cart in the Target toy section a couple years ago. I didn't move, and told her, "If you hit me with that cart, we have a problem." She stopped and grunted at me like a goddamn caveman. No manners.

Do not confuse Zealandia with Zoolandia... ancestral home of Derek Zoolander.

There has been much research suggesting Marco Polo was a liar. a quick Google search showed this site: http://website.lineone.net/~mc... Many scholars believe that he may have just traveled to India and talked to travelers from China. They point out that Marco Polo never pointed out major inventions like paper, that were unseen in Europe but common in China.

Well they feed the livestock Tetracycline by the shovel full. Of course, a person that needs the drug has to pay at least 10000% more and can't afford to go see their doctor unless they have insurance. Lucky pigs.

Isn't that a fairly racist term? I thought the prefered nomenclature is Inuit or Aleut.

I voted for Sisko because he sand that awesome thong song.

I thought the big problem right now was not the availability of simple sugars, but the fact that it takes a quite a few gallons of water to make one gallon of ethanol.
I know that people do all sorts of bullshit inflation of the number of gallons of water, where they factor in the irrigation of the crops and all, but it still takes a lot of water to make those simple sugars into ethanol.
Yet, this magical Panda Poo enzyme might come in handy since it can turn inedible plant matter to humans into fuel. Say we turn in the corn stalks, or the enourmous amount of leaves collected every Fall into fuel. Maybe someday there won't be famines, we can ship all our excess grain to the hungry with the power of Panda Poo!

With this new technology, a blond wig and a couple bags of silicone... future slashdotters will have dates to the prom!

You can see why the Founding Fathers included it in the Bill of Rights.
Good ol' USA where we can tell everyone of our elected officals a what cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, four-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, dickless, hopeless, heartless, fat-ass, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed sack of monkey shit they are! Hallelujah! Holy shit! Where's the Tylenol?

I'm a US citizen, and I firmly believe the gov't will piss away all my Social Security 'savings' before I hit retirement age. I'm in my mid-thirties and most of my friends feel the same way.
I think it's screwed up that foreign workers have to pay into a retirement system they will never see a nickle from. I also think young people today paying into a system that we have no faith in is screwed up. It should be an optional system.

I tried this years ago with RFC 1149. I had to abandon my project, the smell of delicious smoked meat attracted hawks, which kept catching all the pigeons.
