    Tech Luminaries Plan To Stop Computers From Taking Over With “OpenAI”

    Because Ford, GM, Nissan, Toyota, BMW cars have never caught on fire :rolleyes: Get off the ignorance train, there's already enough idiots riding it as is! The CEO gives direction for their corporation. Musk gets himself and his corporations into areas of the market that have holes -...

    Microsoft’s New Development Workflow Begins To Show Cracks

    As a software developer I can't agree more to this statement. I can write code and make good unit tests. Ask me to perform user level tests and I'll do ok. Get a dedicated tester on that same interface and they'll find things I could not. Dedicated testers are a must. The best environment is...

    Destiny's Plot Is The Product Of A Last-Minute Redesign

    I never played Destiny. I would have if the story were even close to as good as this Penny Arcade's comic's http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2014/12/12 (comic is large as an image so i'm using a link to the comic instead to not mess with the forum's size)

    Compulsive Texting Takes Toll on Teenagers

    "free" is relative. It's free upfront but what about the contract that goes with it? $60-90 a month + 2 year contract? There's the cost of the phone and then some. Comparing prices: Flip phone - $5 Simple 300 minute plan/month - $20 every 3 months Cost per year: $80 per year with a $5 up...

    Compulsive Texting Takes Toll on Teenagers

    Same age and same situation. I'm always near a computer so what's the need for a $500 phone that'll cost me unforetold amounts per month for inferior performance and access? ($20 every 3 months for my $5 flip phone) For waiting rooms a good book is still the best option.

    HTML5-Based Data Transfer Is For Terrorists And Pirates

    I agree that the 2nd amendment needs to by thrown on the street and shot. The 4th is still very important in protecting individual rights. The 1st is very powerful and it does open holes like allowing the KKK and nazi skin-heads to exist in the US but it is so powerful in protecting individual...

    Fan Who Threw Pokémon-Themed Party Hit With Lawsuit

    $2 to cover costs and he loses money each year he does this. That sounds like a profit venture worth investing in! Just more cock-sucking lawyers being asses.

    Google Has A New Parent Company Called Alphabet

    Remember corporations are people! Just like I, as a person, can create a new person out of thin air and say they are my parent. Then after that divide myself into multiple different people all who originated from the new parent.

    FCC Already Getting Thousands Of Net Neutrality Complaints

    Correction to my last post: Comcast and qwest put 250,000 into the fight in the last longmont vote. Though i'm sure they paid much more to get the a law passed that requires Colorado cities to vote to pass a referendum in order to have the ability to build fiber; at least there was the ability...

    FCC Already Getting Thousands Of Net Neutrality Complaints

    This is not government takeover. It was a decision by the people of the city in a vote. (Took 2 votes as Comcast spent huge amounts of money many millions fighting it with ads/commercials the first time around (F you Comcast, no one wants you!)) This is a progressive movement, not some...

    FCC Already Getting Thousands Of Net Neutrality Complaints

    How 'bout for-profit corps get the middle finger they deserve and everyone vote for city run fiber; no need for comcast to make 97% profit from cable subs. $50 for 1 gig up/down fiber? Yes pls (just a month or two for my service :D ) Longmont, Co Fiber...

    HP Bans T-Shirts At Work

    Just an fyi, HP does not have a dress code. I am an employee at HP and there have been emails sent internally saying "there is no dress code"after this baseless report was made.

    Take the xbox out of the equation and allow me to install and play xbox games on the pc. That's the only thing i'll get excited about. I neither own nor want a console.

    Amazon Contracts Iberdrola To Build Wind Farm

    This is only because the current grid is all about production and consumption; there's no storage. Renewable is very much like food production (less like today and more historical) where storehouses were used to store excess yields for times of drought or winter. There is still work that...
