Comment Math is hard (Score 1) 107

So, how was the sample chosen? Is that 55% of people who said they used to post? Or everyone who rarely posted in the first place? What about new posters who were not even around when that group was posting. ARGH. And remember, it's not a fact, it's what people now want to SAY about their habits, considering the media coverage about internet addiction. ARGH AGAIN.

Comment Scared Little Boys (Score 1) 172

No strong female driven superhero movie is ever going to be accepted by the man-child fan boys. So why bother catering to them? Try something different, that grinds their knees into the gravel, so they run away screaming for mommy. Of COURSE Lobo, the strong male character is the only thing they like. If Ezra Miller were "straight", Flash would not have had half the bad reviews it gets. So absolutely no surprise.

Amazon took nine years to reach profitability.

I'm not sure Amazon is a good example here. The company famously opted to reinvest its free cash flow into growing the business, rather than saving them and booking them as net income. They likely could have been profitable sooner otherwise.

Also, I am not aware of Amazon receiving billions in government support in the 1994-2001 timeframe.

Comment Laws? (Score 1) 37

Because they will no longer obey any laws going forward. The law was there as a check point whenever they overstepped. Now it's the wild west with no restrictions. It's time to start putting all the "snooped" words into every email as an attachment to flood their systems with false positives. Start with everything that youtube flags and work from there.

And then they will be demanding that the paper manufacturers limit what can be printed on their paper! Paper is to blame for so many social ills. It's been on a slippery slope since the printing press was used the first time to print a book. A BOOK! Time to ban those too.

(Yeah, it's the something absurdum fallacy, one of my favorites.)
