This article is so poor, it's not worth reading. I know the author and publication usually have no idea what they're talking about, but if their whole point is based on their misunderstanding, then the article is just garbage. Hea

You know who does this? Sony. PS3/4. Author should have done some research before proposing such a ridiculously stupid idea. If I was legally allowed to, I would hurt them physically for for imposing this shit on me when I just want to

How do you possibly imagine a non-free browser competing with all the free browsers out there?

Counted, just incorrectly. Fine for US elections.

Whether Gore or Bush actually won the election is inconsequential at this point, save for the lasting damage. Almost 100% of the American people want fair elections which means that all votes are counted. If the American people can't e

How many warnings do you need about people flying planes into buildings to actually do something about it? We had quite detailed warnings from multiple places. And none of them required decryption.

How ironic: it's America's choice, but when we get there to make the choice we don't have a way to make it. Seriously, what a bunch of bullshit. The only reason they're not legislating back doors is because they fear the

What a well-written piece. I agree that there is a lot of room for sustainable, technology based businesses. These are businesses that can optionally be run remotely and don't need to limit themselves to the bay area and its insane sta

I don't know about the UK, but in the US talking to people about this is likely to lead to losing your freedom (getting committed and losing other rights such as gun ownership) so I'm not surprised that most people, men or women,

I'm saying all the laws currently banning every single type of gun outside ones home/business on books currently aren't doing shit to stop gun violence and this won't either, not that smart guns shouldn't exist.

It's already illegal to possess a gun outside your home or business in New Jersey (with very few exceptions for rifles and shotguns) yet Trenton, Camden, and Newark still have a whole ton of gun violence and are basically giant ghettos

After Amazon threatened to close my paid Prime account because I was returning too many things (totally false) I'm now going back to the brick and mortar stores too. As more and more people get alienated by policies that aren't ev

"Nowadays, startups just rent AWS servers and storage, and if they suddenly need an extra thousand servers, they just click on a link and put the cost on a credit card." Where's this magic autoscaling link? Last I checked, AW

I'm willing to compromise a bit on the time, but the point is they need to face real consequences for their actions or they will continue to be irresponsible with the lives of others.

I wasn't just referring to the psychiatrists, but to the authorities in general, and torture is the only word to describe what's happening there.

Since clearly Rikers has over 400 violations of the 6th Amendment (since by no sane person's definition can over two years in jail be considered speedy), how about releasing these people on their own recognizance until trial?

You think the authorities tortured these people so bad that their only recourse is to wait for them to die / kill them all before closing to hide the evidence? I wouldn't be surprised.

How about creating serious penalties for prosecutors who use falsified evidence, regardless of how it was obtained or their knowledge thereof. Our society, for whatever unfathomable reasons, places special trust in prosecutors (and police

Maybe because part of the evolutionary change in policy comes from white people complaining, an act that's futile when done by minorities in this country?

10 days in jail? How about start with 25 years and then work your way up from there? That'd be justice, but in the US that won't happen. We can always hope he gets murdered in jail though, but they'll probably put him in soli

I guess the only thing we have to fear is not just fear itself but the fearful themselves who are driving the madness in this country because of their fear of what is essentially a ghost (terrorism). So much for JFK's America. Today&#x

I saw at least a handful of commercials for this game on TV and not one of them mentioned it was possible to live-stream. With such a marketing fumble (pun intended), the numbers seem rather irrelevant.
