Tech industry thumps Trump's rump over decision to leave Paris climate agreement

Re: Oh yeah, how is that going?

It does seem like the last guys policies left the country in a decent condition.

Re: cripple your own economy

Some think that if manufacturing comes back to the US, that there will be jobs with it. Actually we manufacture more than we ever did, but automation is driving that growth. Next the orange savior will declare robots to be bad dudes and try to deport them.

I'm sure trump's BFF Vlad is making secondary arrangements.

Re: Can it trigger some kind of Streisand effect?

Only if the cowards in charge of the republican party grow a pair. Or if the noise becomes so loud they fear for their jobs and let it take it's course.

Hackers emit 9GB of stolen Macron 'emails' two days before French presidential election

Re: "I doubt French voters will blame her any more than American voters blamed Trump"

They are not so broke that they can't purchase influence from a self serving greedy narcissist who wants a title more than actually doing his job.

It's a question worth asking: Why is the FCC boss being such a jerk?

Re: grr

Actually it's not that government is the problem, it's the lack of governance that appears to be the problem here.

And as far as the people who claim this is socialism... you don't know what the word means do you?

H-1B applications down after Trump's 'American techies first' rhetoric

Yet again

He didn't cut the number of H2-B visas, the ones his companies bring in. And if he requires buy American, does that mean his clothing lines should not be worn in the White House?

Of course, that would mean the emperor has no clothes... but we already knew that.

No, Microsoft is not 'killing Windows 10 Mobile'

Not dead but hard to buy

Went to a Microsoft store recently to purchase a Lumia 650, Rep told me that they don't sell them in stores any longer, you have to order them online.

So I go to a MS store to buy a MS product but you don't sell them there. While the lack of apps was not a deal breaker, making it like a job to buy your product is.

shame, I did like my previous Nokia windoew phone too.

'Nobody's got to use the internet,' argues idiot congressman in row over ISP privacy rules

Re: Benefit of the doubt? "Notas Badoff" might not be American?

Actually you are wrong on several accounts. Gerrymandering started around 1812, well before any need to address racial bias, or for that matter.. before black people had the right to vote.

And multiple investigations, including some in your beloved red states have shown multiple voting and non-citizen voting to be a non factor

Big Internet warns FCC's Pai: We will fight you all the way on net neutrality

Re: not all packets are created equal

Except in the US there are still many areas where you have one broadband choice. Even if a new service such as googlybookface took off, if there is only one way to get there they will still have to pay whatever the provider wants.

USA can afford golf for Trump. Can't afford .com for FBI infosec service

Re: That the Fibbies are less than competent is a given. . .

It could be because the current one tried to say he would not golf until he had bigly solved all the problems facing the country, but has done more golf vs hours worked than any president ever.

Trump's immigration clampdown has Silicon Valley techies fearing for their house prices

Re: Stalin killed ~20 million of his own people :(

The most interesting thing is the fellow from the Louvre incident is from Egypt, a country not on trumps banned list. But it is a country he has a business interests in.

Trump's new telecoms chief bins broadband subsidies for the poor

Re: Program Expansion

Actually the landline in my neighborhood costs more than a basic internet line through the cable company. So limiting it to landlines only is more expensive and giving people less options than slow high speed internet.

Re: Only the second week

Carter suspended immigration from Iran due to the hostage crisis...

Obama did not suspend immigration for six months, he increased the scrutiny and requirements for visas and that was due to a known threat.

Trump hits control-Z on cybersecurity order: No reason given for delay

This bot shorts stocks when Trump tweets (don't fret, the profit is used for good)

Re: Not very future-proof...

This is probably not a long term app anyway as the odds makers do have trump not finishing his 1st term, let alone going for 8.

And at the very least, something good is coming from his middle of the night temper tantrums.

Re: Ah! "The gentler, kinder politics of the left"

stop it.. the reason we have the short fingered vulgarian is because of the right, not obama, noty hillary, not bernie... it is because the right put him up as a candidate.

a well oiled propaganda machine spewing lies against a flawed candidate on the left .. boom .. instant clown in the WH.

Re: Less than a week in the position...

And the Pubs suppress votes by not having the same amount of voting machines in poorer urban areas as the suburbs. Shouldn't that be monitored as well?

Trump signs 'no privacy for non-Americans' order – what does that mean for rest of us?

Re: Upside Down World

If you haven't noticed the short fingered vulgarian is the one making the big deal about the size of his "crowd" .. then doubling down and lying about it and tell federal agencies to get him more pictures to make it look better.

Trump lieutenants 'use private email' for govt work... but who'd make a big deal out of that?

Re: The return of the high horse

I am tired of those on the right claiming that the left is the reason the short fingered vulgarian won. He won because far too many on the right are party over country.

You enabled and voted him and his lies in, you are responsible.

When was the indictment, trial and sentencing? If none of those happened, then she is by definition, not a felon.

I say the only way to be sure is for them to turn over the emails.. lets see how many they say are private and non essential.

President Trump tweets from insecure Android, security boffins roll eyes

Re: Trump doesn't tweet

Is this the "alternative facts" version to explain his years of off the rails ramblings bordering on stupidity?

You actually think a control freak like the sort fingered vulgarian is going to stop cold turkey?
