I don't feel like there was ever anything to be said at all about marvel movies. It turns out you and I are not only two different people, we also aren't the only people who read Slashdot. There is a new documentary on Theranos' Elizabeth Holmes and that's what makes it newsworthy. You haven't watched it, so you can't really say if there is anything in it that is or isn't new, but according to Rotten Tomatoes, in any case, it's worth a watch to those who are interested.

You're the one that expressed an interest in making humorous comments. Don't get *your* panties in a bunch because I tried to help you learn how to do it.

So you think the only corruption in the world is in the White House? I realize it was an attempt at a joke. Let's see if you can write a better one after you go back, read the thread, and think about it.

What happened when you were at work and you explained to them that you didn't read the report because it wasn't enjoyable enough? Being able to read and understand things, even if you don't enjoy reading them, is a necessary skill. Enjoyment is fine if it runs parallel to the curriculum, but using it as a metric to drive the curriculum is a bad plan.

Math assigned in Algebra is rarely the enjoyable kind. I guess classes should only teach "enjoyable" things. I'm sure that will work out great.

Look back at this thread carefully. See if you can start to understand how you didn't fix anything.

Worse yet, if they haven't read "Stranger in a Strange Land" they might not even know what grokking *is*!

That is what is known as a "false dichotomy."

Why you need articles when there is actual video of him saying it? If you weren't getting your knowledge of the Trumpsterfire from Fox "News" you would have already seen the videos of him saying this, and a plethora of even more idiotic and ignorant things. If you really want proof, try learning how to use Google. Don't expect us to educate you when you are making zero effort to get an education yourself.

Yes. I can tell you. It is not a white-washing of Holmes. There is already Rotten Tomatoes entry.

Patients using Theranos tests received incorrect results for serious medical conditions, including miscarriages, HIV, and cancer markers. Those people weren't the 1%, and they were affected in a much more serious way than mere financial loss. Maybe you don't find that "interesting"?

Following that line of reasoning we should just shut down all the news organizations.

Well, if you watched it you wouldn't be able to say that you have no idea about the Theranos / Elizabeth Holmes debacle, and you would walk away knowing about something that happened in the STEM / tech industry of which you really should be aware. Can you image that?

It was a huge scam perpetrated on investors in the technology sector, and endangered the lives of a lot of people. Slashdot regularly covers movies that have no actual impact on the real word, simply because some nerds like comic books, and the movies made based on them. I'd love to hear your rationale for claiming the it doesn't belong on Slashdot.

I wish I had a dollar for every time I gave gweihir the benefit of the doubt, only to have him/her double down on their ignorance and stupidity. I can promise you that he/she will *never* let accepted facts get in the way of his/her belief that Humans are endowed by a supernatural force that makes them immune to the scientific method.
