In America there is no such thing as "no other options". When you see folks saying these people are lazy, they are folks who understand there are always "other options". They might not be the options you want, but then y

Are you kidding? Riding a bicycle in the street is the very definition of a poor life choice. Haha I got downvoted, probably by people who ride bikes. Hey I love bikes, bikes need their own lane. When I grew up the government told me I coul

I'd like to know if the people responsible for promoting this idea will be punished for the lives that are going to be inevitably destroyed? The last time we did something this stupid with predictable chaotic results required a corrupt

They'll do nothing and buy drugs and alcohol. People have been doing that with free money since forever. You can't package the free money in a different way and expect different results.

"If you're low on income and have a family to support" then you made poor life choices and natural selection comes into play. Like it or not it is a force of nature.

This is the stupidest idea ever, for a lot of reasons that anyone can find in a basic class or a few web searches on economics. Why did this get voted on in the netherlands? Why is this being tried in America? This is dumber than communism.

Maybe commercial software is dead. We all want it, except for some youngins.. how long can the corporate marketplace defy the will of the people who fuel the market? Free software is the future. The benefits to mankind are too great.

After meeting a few CEOs of large corporations it's clear that being intelligent or knowledgable about their industry is not their primary attribute. Rising to that sort of position has more to do with social networking ability and how

There's a few free SSL providers, not including the various shared hosting services which offer free SSL. Let's Encrypt is significant because their certificate is "trusted" in all browsers. The free SSL CAs that I'

They are trying to create brand confusion. Let's Encrypt is big news right now. Everyone knows their service is 'going places'. Comodo's people figure they can steer some customers toward their service if those customers

if torrent traffic is encrypted they wouldn't know it's torrent traffic so would be unable to throttle it, is that right? I can't imagine why anyone would not encrypt torrent trafffic, perhaps I'm missing something here.

Firearms aren't a matter of public health. Violence might be, but not firearms. It's an inappropriate use of the CDC to have them study firearms. They study bacteria and viruses and such. Not machinery. Not the misuse of machinery

This is a really great perspective I'd never considered before. My first thought at the headline is that the right to carry guns is a crucial part of American heritage. It's wrapped up tightly with our rebellion against the evil b

Those bastards. I tried emailing sales@comodo.com but their mailing server falsely bounced my message saying there was a virus attached (I use anti-virus on my mail server.) I called them and told their tech support guy about their broken m
