savagej··on New Mexico is first state in US to offer universal child care
You're an idiot.

I have a toddler.

They are absorbing everything and gaining a personality from day one.

You are not the one doing it.

savagej··on I tracked thieves stealing my car in San Francisco
Don't go to SF. The voters sympathize with criminals more than honest people who earn an honest living. The voters view thievery as a valid tax.
savagej··on Tesla Dojo Custom AI Supercomputer at HC34
My autopilot drives me on the highway just like he said it would. That was what he predicted about 5 years ago. FSD is taking longer - so what. It's progressing for the public far more than another other attempt.
savagej··on Welcome, ACLU
The whole world is not a potential immigrant that gets American Privileges.
savagej··on Welcome, ACLU
Clearly I didn't know we had a one world government.

If American liberties are a concept to apply over the whole world, the ACLU should be encouraging the whole world to a adopt the Bill of Rights and our Constitution.

savagej··on Welcome, ACLU
People who have never been to America are not Americans.
savagej··on Welcome, ACLU
I thought the "A" in ACLU stood for American.
savagej··on I’m a Coastal Elite from the Midwest: The Real Bubble Is Rural America
The author was intentionally writing around the fact that these "undocumented immigrants" are illegal. When someone purposefully obfuscates an issue, I'll call a spade, a spade, and say the writing is pure ignorance.
savagej··on I’m a Coastal Elite from the Midwest: The Real Bubble Is Rural America
Pure ignorant writing.

Do we live in a country of immigration laws or not? This author seems to think it's a one world government.

Keep telling yourself Trump is going to lose if it helps you sleep.

savagej··on HP’s new Spectre x360 is probably the best PC laptop around
That's a general blanket statement as fact. I went 1800p on 13" laptops 3 years ago. That is as low as I will ever go. I also have a Samsung Tab S2 8.0 for reading and a Nexus 6 phone. My next 13" Ultrabook will be a 4k OLED. Nothing else contends.
savagej··on All Tesla Cars Being Produced Now Have Full Self-Driving Hardware
Google sells cars?

You're off by 2X. Well over 80% of GOP is voting Trump.

savagej··on Behind the Pixel: Google’s First Real Threat to Apple’s iPhone
If Google ever releases a new Nexus 7, that will be the only device with a chance to replace my N6. I couldn't even go down to a 6P size.
savagej··on Making Humans a Multiplanetary Species [video]
Just pass a few laws. Outlaw the First Amendment, so people can't spread these dangerous ideas. Put people like yourself in charge of 1st world nations. Then confiscate the wealth of anyone who attempts travel to Mars. Anyone who attempts this dangerous idea in secret would be locked up, of course.

I'm sure you have it all figured out.

so pass a law, and outlaw space travel.

savagej··on Microsoft aren't forcing Lenovo to block free operating systems
Currently, I run on a pair of Samsung Ativ Book 9 Plus with 8G mem. It looks like they've moved on from the Ativ line. The 3200 x 1800 display works well with awesome+gnome. It also drives an external 1440p display simultaneously (at 30fps).
savagej··on Microsoft aren't forcing Lenovo to block free operating systems
Why would anyone ever buy Lenovo? It's malware, spyware, and harmful to users. I buy HP or Samsung laptops to run Fedora. Just accept that Lenovo is not IBM hardware, and that it is lost to us.
savagej··on SpaceX just landed a rocket on a drone ship for the first time
Falcon 9. On a boat.

savagej··on I Drove Chevrolet's Bolt
The Bolt looks like a $15k econobox deathtrap. The Model 3 looks like a 60k Italian sedan made in CA. But you cringe at that... yeah
savagej··on A gun is now more likely to kill you than a car is in the U.S
yeah. you're a subject, not a free person in Europe.
savagej··on Representing Trees in PostgreSQL
I've used django-mptt to represent a tree of human phenotypes before. It was fast and quite an easy api to use. I was using PostgreSQL as the backend.
