Comment Re:They need more IMF and World Bank Loans. (Score 1) 84

It's the same game as the bankters in the developed world play. They do not want debt paid off. They want their monthly residual and will gladly have you default so they can roll the debt into more debt and pay it off over a longer period of time.

Nah, this place is going to be a "Domain For Sale" placeholder soon. You'll come here late at night when you can't sleep, intending to click "-1" and see what the creimertards came up with next, and you will be met with a banner that slashdot.org is for sale for $3 because Logan Abbott ran it into the ground.

If my tax dollars can't go to a girl or woman who's been raped to get an abortion

Rapes are rare. Pregnancies from rapes are rarer. Abortions are cheap.

someone who has chosen to do drugs

This is orders of magnitude more prevalent than rape. And a real problem when EVERYTHING is laced with fentanyl. Don't ask me why they lace the drugs, but there is some campagn in Mexico to mix everything with elephant doses of fentanyl. Pot, coke, and ironically herioin. I've known someone to die from fentanyl ODs from pot and coke. Somebody is trying to kill off a certain group of people IMO.

Comment Re:Snapchat is from a Chinese company? (Score 2) 65

Yeah, you can make that argument, but have you looked at EDGAR to see their filings? If they are exempt from filing the details (i.e. they are privately held), you know very little about them from publicly available information. It's like the "investors" who gave the money to Slashdot's parent company to by Slashdot. if they are a public company, you have a lot more visibility on the workings, but you still probably don't know who the investors are, and you don't know who is pulling the strings unless you're an insider.

I think the idea is that TikTok is Chinese spyware but like almost all phone apps are Chinese spyware. You know if the USA pushed this hard, the Chinese would just spin off a new app called Tick Talk that does the exact same thing and force users to upgrade from Tik Tok to Tick Talk. At least the phonetics would be correct in the latter this time.

It's a shell, game, people. And I, for one, welcome our new Chinese Overlords!

You can get a reel of 1000 quality, name-brand resistors for under ten bucks from digikey or Farnell

You're better off buying a reel of 5000 for $13 than you are buying 1000 and paying the reeling fee. You can get 1000 0603 resistors for $3 or $4 from Digi-Key if you're willing to just have cut tape. Most hobbyists have no use for reels.
