Comment Re:GOP corporate mentality (Score 0) 61

That being true and all, over time I have seen many examples where the GOP is the party of the Rich 1% in general, and they bend over backwards, or kneel down, in order to take their money and pass favorable laws for them. GOP is constantly bailing out the 1%. It is a case at this point where when a child is born into the 1%, that they are basically "American Royalty", making laws and being above them. Then on the other hand, they spend a shitload of money promoting "cultural issues", getting people to hate one another, in order to stay in power.

Comment Re:Intel has 4.3B total shares (Score 2) 31

I smell something stinky here. Buying common shares.. at a fixed price.... No seeming 'quid pro quo'. It is like they are just propping up the share price and only benefits shareholders, like the US Government. I think it ties in with Trump meddling in NVDIA's sales to China. It doesn't appear to benefit any engineering nor technology at Intel. It doesn't on the face of it benefit nVidia.

Comment Re:The NASA Admin's job is that of a salesman ... (Score 4, Insightful) 69

That seems like a reasonable response in normal times, but I simply assume that the only qualification for anybody Trump appoints is total allegiance to Trump. Most are simply conspiracy theorists who wanked off while the people they are replacing studied books and got degrees.

Comment Cooperation Governments needed (Score 4, Insightful) 45

and.. Governments who believe that there is plenty, instead of believing in scarcity is needed. It is simply not so that if somebody else has something that you don't have it. It is not true if an immigrant has a job, then you don't have one. It is not true that if SpaceX has rockets, that Chinese can't have them. It is not a zero-sum game unless you think of it that way. A little bit of thought, and communication can bring plentiful bounty to many.

Comment Re:Robot vacuum cleaners - meh (Score 2) 100

to me the point of it is if you let it run while you aren't there, and it picks up a cup or two of dust and hair, it is that much less for your vacuum to pick up. i'm lazy. every little bit helps. My two cheap what ever brands of robocleaners do that for me. it is a good concept. i don't like the idea of it having a camera nor of being hooked to the internet though.
