Ah, very good then

And the dish ran away with the spoon...

So this is probably not the best image to project to the "virtual agent" when attempting a border crossing.

Is that a threat!?

Ukraine isn't a part of NATO and thus not a US vassal state.

... and therefore open to be invaded and annexed by Russia. Sucks to be them, right?

Crimea had a free and fair vote to join Russia - the same kind of vote a lot of people would like to have in California to see if they want to join Mexico.

Do you hear yourself? Free and fair? and Californians want to secede to Mexico? You got a cite for that? Your credibility has dropped to zero with that one.

The biggest threat to world peace is American imperialism and NATO is merely their tool.

What imperialism? What country is the U.S. attempting to annex, militarily or otherwise? Imperialism suggests that "vassals" pay to the emperor state. If NATO is paying so much, where's the fucking money?!?!?!? why the FUCK is the U.S. in DEFICIT if its world-wide "empire" is paying "tribute" to the emperorship?

Hey, Germany! Make me a new Mercedes and send it to me damn quick, you little "vassal" you, your Emperor commands it!

Oh, fucking shee-itt! Imperialism! Fuck!

(collect myself, now) As NATO is concerned, if any member wanted out, they're free to go. On the contrary, former Russian "vassal states" joined NATO at they're earliest opportunity. Flaming shit-sticks I can't believe I go on with this

Russia a long time ago lost its place as a superpower. Now it's a regional power with nukes.

You're not fooling anyone, you know. Read that last statement. Read it again, particularly the last two words. Note that they have not one, not three, but seven-fucking-thousand nukes that-we-know-of, and have exploded the largest nuclear explosion in human history, as well as time-tested ICBM technology to deliver them nukes any fucking where in the fucking world.

That means, when they fuck around with a neighboring country, annexing the best part for itself, their adversaries have to think twice about what kind of response to make, lest some armed conflict escalates out of hand, and a trigger-happy missile guy feels threatened and presses a button that dusts the entire northern hemisphere. With that much nuclear death and inter-continental reach, your power is not "local," nor would Putin permit it to be.

Russia may be no China in terms of productivity and growth (and imperialism), but they're damn proud and a small fraction of them are unimaginably wealthy. The country with the largest land-mass in the world will never settle as a "regional power". For one, that's why they fuck around in Syria: to maintain a strategic foothold in the Mediterranean. A "regional power" would have no interest in propping up a shit-kicker dictator like Bashar al-Assad with weapons and planes and troops on the ground... but a super-power intent on expanding its sea-power presence sure fucking would.

Drop a lid and open your eyes. This is planet Earth, and shit is what it is. If anything, under Trump, American influence in the world is receding, at least if you pay too much attention to his don't-wanna-pay-for-anything Tweets, while China and India expand their reach and Russia stumbles forward in its cold-war daze. All the playaz iz playin, making their moves every fucking day. Free yo

For me it will always be associated with The General Lee.

The point is to push the state of art and win the competition:
http://www.worldsolarchallenge... (in this case the more practical cruiser class)

Also to show how 'close' we are to having productions cars with solar or at least show how things are progressing.

It's a step up from this:

It's like F1 is trying to push the state of the art. Obviously F1 cars are not for normal production use either.

If they keep the "NX" codename, how many people will be expecting this instead?

I'm a bit disappointed. I thought they were going to build this.

Let me talk about Bayonetta for a second.

Bayonetta's character as a sassy, sexy, badass bitch who'll stomp your brains in and look awesome doing it is absolutely fantastic.

However, her character and the games that she is in exist in a cultural context wherein the finer nuances of the character are lost and while in another time and another context, would be absolutely fine, are used to reenforce shitty sexist ideas about women, specifically women in games.

Now. Hatred has pretty much the same problem. Looks like a fun game, but we're all stewing in a morass of toxic violent masculinity. If we weren't in a place where oh say as an example(of many), sexually frustrated men decide to violently take out their frustrations on women, and failing that anyone who's within firing range... Yeah. I don't argue that games *make* you violent, however I will argue that culture as a whole glorifies violence and this would just reenforce that narrative. Calvin sums it up here

Sure, they're developed by a Polish team, but do I think that it should be for sale? No. Not here. Do I think the Government should do anything about it? No, that's censorship. It sounds like a great game if I wasn't worried it was going to reenforce someone's crappy idea of dealing with life was to get a bunch of military grade weapons and go on a shooting spree.

Nope, that wont help you.

Hahahaha! That made my morning!

Nope, that wont help you.

"invented crimes".

Perhaps if you actually looked through her twitter and saw the shit she has tweeted at people, especially during The Fine Young Capitalists, you would know what you were actually talking about. Christ, even the person that ran it was doxxed by them, all of that which was posted on twitter BY ZOE herself, then suddenly deleted after someone called her on it. She is covering shit up all the time.
You are familiar with basically nothing from that small laughable list.

Anita didn't criticize SHIT. She cherry-picked out the ass.
Every single issue she came up with has been beaten to death by others so many times it isn't even funny now.
NONE of her arguments have any logical foundations, they are all made up.
She got all that money to say a blatantly obvious thing, "derrr females are sexy in video games".
NOOOoo, really, just like how guys are totally immune to that.
I could easily go on. There are FAR more overly-sexual masculine characters than there are females.
There are PLENTY of regular females in games that aren't overly sexual, are main characters, are strong, fit, unfit and weak.
Literally no argument. At all.

Gawker have played a HUGE part in all of this as well, since they are the ones pushing it so hard, especially through the journalists circlejerk mailing list that was exposed. (and even got several people fired)
Many of their staff have FACTUALLY SUPPORTED Zoe on her Patreon. So much for integrity and neutrality.
Not only that, after some advertisers dropped, they started LOSING THEIR SHIT so hard on their site, their twitters and facebook profiles.
And not even making up coherent arguments, flat-out insulting advertisers for dropping them. Yeah, good luck ever getting those advertisers back, idiots.
Then they resorted to saying all kinds of messed up things about bullying others, people should be killed and so on.
TOTALLY SANE PEOPLE HERE.

Let's not forget that this whole thing exploded back when Anita held a conference at XOXO where a whole host of websites ALL PUBLISHED THE SAME(ish) ATTACK ON GAMERS AT THE SAME TIME(ish).
Totally not a huge collusion in the industry.

The fact that you are supporting these mentally unstable people is awful.
Is it harassment? Sure it is. Of people that are horribly cruel, harassing and manipulative, trying to force their pathetic corrupt agendas down yet another industries throat. Is it sexist? Is it fuck, it is attacking more guys than it is girls. It only started with them because they were the ones that stupidly leaked their OBVIOUS manipulation. In fact, Zoe only ended up happening because she pissed off the wrong guy.

I'd go on, but it is obvious you are already blinded by, hilariously and ironically, damsels in distress in need of help.
They don't need your help. Stop making them out to be weaker than they are. It is actually insulting to them. (for some reason)
They picked their battles. Let them have their equality. If they don't like it, too bad, this is the real world. They can piss off back to their tumblrs to whine about it.

Attacking gamers. Gamers. The people conditioned to want to win. That want to complete their mission, that want to get somewhere, and will LITERALLY SHIT THEMSELVES AND DIE if it means they can play a little longer. (silly MMO players)
They picked the wrong battle.

I agree. The Motherboard article made it sound like there's an oscillation between "A supermajority is doing A, so let's not conform by doing B" and "A supermajority is doing B, so let's not conform by doing A". What a real hipster has to do is figure out C, D, and E, like looking at cartoon chipmunks and other characters and getting the idea to wear an ankle-length shirt. Different enough that it hasn't caught on much outside the Middle East, yet still presentable.

this guy, and he's holding the very gun that DARPA ripped-off...

Because this is a website with a predominantly technically minded demographic, and as it happens, the end-user experience is not necessarily representative of the impact this issue has on said demographic.

Might I suggest a more approparate place for you?

I think we all know the real reason the Japanese are so fixated on radiation-related problems.

Manga guys usually have big eyes too.

Yeah, but from what I've seen (I'm not a manga/anime fanatic), I've noticed that when they do go too far with the "big eyes == cute" anime thing, (especially with overly "cutesy" and/or soft-porn oriented pictures), it's with the pictures of girls and woman.

It's true that larger eyes -> protectiveness-inducing attractiveness up to a point. But aside from the fact that overdoing this can have a "too much" saccharin effect, some of those pictures go beyond that, and (to me) the eyes are so large they start to lose their stylised "human" connection and edge into freakish, alien and almost insectoid/fly-like territory.

Examples; here and especially here (possibly NSFW)

Maybe what MS needed was two Steve Ballmers? I think Uncle Fester could have done at least as well.

MS was quite profitable, had plenty of talent, and could have hired or contracted for more help. It is silly to blame security failure diverted resources for their underachievers. Music players weren't even from the same division.

As for Windows... well... Are future problems rains' fault when people build on a river bottom? Leave it to MS to design a door with screening sized to contain chickens after not seeing anything smaller outside the day they set goals. Their problem was a lack of insight.

Me too... This Tuesday on an all-new House.

Ok, here.

Even though hoards geeks with pictures of Summer Glau, Jewel State, Gina Torres and Morena Baccarin cry when this is mentioned, Serenity is NOT an instructional video.

... are we leaving the operation of the grid up to IT?
Uncle Fester seems eminently more suited to the job.

I guess we'll all be like Grampa Simpson in a few years.

APK is a know-nothing troll. by tomhudson the 1 EYED DEFECTIVE CYCLOPS AND REJECTED CUNT (43916) on Saturday February 12, @11:19AM (#35186644) Homepage

Tell us why you are nothing but a stupid cunt, that posts with a man's name, and yet claims to be a cunt. Why do you try to deceive others that way, cunt?

(Is that why your former employer fired you and your customers are taking you to court? Is that why your former employer paid you at a minimum wage rate too for the job you botched recently, cyclops?)

I even found a picture of you online:

LMAO!

I know you're a physically defective cunt with only 1 eye from your journals here. This explains why no man wants you cunt. You're a hideous fucking monstrosity that takes the misery of her life and tries to spread it to others. It's not our fault you are a defective reject, cunt.

Go away now, Cyclops. We don't need defective freaks of nature here like you that pretend to be a man online to top your freakishness off.

Hi, it looks like you've been spending a lot of time on a wiki. Might I suggest some Jimbo.

can bionic ears be too far behind now?
