Analyze all of the data
No. It shows a more rapid rise in the last couple of decades, but it does not show an acceleration overall. If you can cherry-pick a 20-25 year period, so can I.
Just for reference, the 25 years of data was not cherry picked. The article being discussed analyzed satellite altimetry data, and the first of the satellite altimetry missions being discussed was TOPEX/Poseidon, which started giving data 25 years ago. 25 years is all the data that exists.
When they analyze all the data that exists, that's the opposite of cherry picking.

Re:Sick of the alarmism
Going by your own link, the rate of change is increasing. This is called acceleration.#youdenyyouself
No. It shows a more rapid rise in the last couple of decades, but it does not show an acceleration overall.
If you can cherry-pick a 20-25 year period, so can I. You can see for yourself sea level was rising just as fast from 1930-1950, when CO2 was around 305-310 ppm. I just rough-fit the dashed lines but you can do your own and no matter how you do it, if you're honest, SLR rate was greater 1930-1950.
It also showed a comparable rate between about 1880-1905.
Explain those. -
Re:Where does the ocean plastic come from? 10 Rive
Sources of ocean plastic From a peer-reviewed paper. (I apologize that I do not have a direct reference to the paper ready at hand).
So, I suppose what we should infer from this, is that we should help developing countries become developed countries, so they can clean themselves up, yes?
But we don't do that by redistributing wealth. The idea is not to drag everyone to the bottom, but to assist everyone to the top. -
Re: Antifa is a domestic terrorist organization
None of the quotes used by the gentleman in that video were fascist. None of it supported authoritarianism, dictatorial power, nationalism, forcible suppression of opposition nor control of industry and commerce.
Utter nonsense. The very first quote was about the destruction of capitalism, which theoretically can only be achieved via dictatorial powers (central control by a small group). Read your Marx. Socialism is central control of production, which is by definition "authoritarian". AND nationalism. AND his quote directly speaks to suppression of opposition.
So that's three of your points shot down by the very first quote.
This second quote, "Benefit to the community precedes benefit to the individual", is the core belief of both Socialism and Communism. It is blatantly collectivist and therefore inherently authoritarian.
The third quote is just more of the same: "The Third Reich will always retain its right to control the owners of property..."
Again, a central-control, authoritarian idea.
Your protestations are just ludicrous. He was saying exactly those things you claim he was not. -

Re:we'll pay for prison
dude that's not even close. I'm going to guess there is a lot more - i just copied from the first page of search results. In fact, I'm going to guess someone wrote a python script to just publish it to every image site that exists. they're labeled fat loser, fat fuck, and similar, in different languages. this is hilarious. I love that this moron spends so much time writing about this and trying to take them down. I wonder why? It's from his own site that he had publicly available to everyone. I guess you can't explain stupid - just have a good laugh and move on.

watermarks
The copy protection watermarks usually are developed and instituted either by the companies responsible for the film (like Kodak for instance) or the prints (Deluxe, Technicolor).
Each vendor has a different method, some more effective than others.
Philips apparently has been doing some work in this field as they have a relatively newer pirate leak tracking system called “Cinefence”. CineFence watermarks are believed to be harder to erase by pirates, and contain the time, place and date of the recorded movie. Interestingly enough the Digital Cinema System Specification requires some sort of watermarking in their processes. -

Re:More details on the Bugs
1. Australis enables you to have the Old-UI. Australis enables you to have a dozen extension toolbars if you want them. Australis enables you to specify *exactly* how you want the UI to appear.
2. Your opinion? FF definitely uses less memory now (V49) than it did for V30+.
3. Memory use as needed. Firefox is the only browser that can open hundred(s) of tabs like Opera used to - but even classic Opera can't do that any longer as it chokes on modern image sizes.
4. No Comment, I use Opera on Android, when I infrequently need to browse to a page. -
Re:Hackintosh
This is exactly why I'm going the Hackintosh route. Better hardware at a much better price.
I needed an OSX machine for school, and after looking at the [expensive] offerings from Apple, I decided to go the Hackintosh route. I first turned a Surface Pro 1 into a Hackintosh running Yosemite. 95% of the machine worked flawlessly, the exception being the built-in wifi. Later, I moved to a Surface Pro 3, of which about 80% works (at this point I can have a battery meter or the touch screen, but not both simultaneously. I went with the touch screen). I love both of them, and use the SP3 on a daily basis. I also have a Hackintosh desktop running El Capitan which is faster, better, and less expensive than any of the equivalent Apple offerings.
You can put together a powerful Skylake based desktop for under $1000 using the CustoMac Buyer's Guide. It takes a lot of reading and some practice to get right at first, but once it's up and running you'll not regret it.

Re: Astrological stock analysis
Again I agree. I could never bring myself to buy a Leaf because of how they look. My wife likes them okay, but for me they are just ugly. Some people will no doubt think that about the Tesla Model 3 which just goes to show you that styling is an individual thing. But it's not an EV vs ICE thing... I personally think that the Model 3 is pretty good looking. I think I still need to get used to the nose, but I'm thinking a graphic may fix that!
The nose is probably the one thing that is stopping me from putting a deposit on today. My car budget is about $40k (USD) but can happily add another $20k if I found something awesome. My immediate impression of the 3 is that is similar in style to the Mazda 3, maybe with a touch of the old Mercedes C class hatch or Porsche Panamera thrown in, but the nose looks wrong.
It needs a grill, even if purely cosmetic so it looks like regular car. The biggest con against EVs is that they look different, something the Telsa S addressed, but with the 3 they are falling into the same old trap.
I took the time to design an elaborate grill that improves the design of the Tesla 3 already. Elon needs to see this: http://s16.postimg.org/z5l1o14... -

Ran Windows Update last night
I ran Windows Update last night, and the 'Upgrade to Win 10' (an optional update) was auto-selected.
The Windows Update page at this point had only one option to click. Begin installation of Windows 10.
Just like this: http://postimg.org/image/qkvw8...
You had to go into "show all available update options" which is in small blue text. Deselect the optional update, so that you can select the "important" ones.
Today, I thought, I'll open Windows Update to see what the small blue text was, to be more accurate...and guess what... yeah the Windows 10 "optional" update is reselected, and if you bother looking at the image above, again the only option to proceed unless you "show all available update options"
So Microsoft can claim whatever the fuck they want. It's bullshit. -
Re:Sandy
I find it interesting how they could claim to correlate wildfires with global warming. Their chart on p. 83 of the report does not contradict THIS chart, but this chart does contradict that idea. There were vastly more acres of woodland burned by wildfires per year in the 1920s-1930s than today.
Funny how your graph is conveniently leaving out a decade of data. Pure coincidence, I'm sure. Nice how you ignore the obvious invention of fire plane, too.

Re: Linux is a fragile house of cards

No he's not an idiot, a fucking liar is what he is. There is no way that in any package management system XFCE would have a dependency on a Sudoku app, if anything the dependency would be the other way around. So no, removing Sudoku would never result in XFCE being deleted. Not even Ubuntu would be that stupid.

Re:Deconstructing diversity in tech

I know the graphs aren't stacked. Just looking at the graphics you can still see the curves do not change at quite the same rate.
Your text version link was quite helpful. I took the women as a percentage of the total [ women / (men+women) ] for each year graphed it, and then tossed a trendline on it.
Women, as a percentage of the total are declining. (interestingly both '83 and '01 happen to be about 27%. But the trendline shows a clear decline. See for yourself

Re:Evidence of the Great Filter?

Our own radio signals have only reached a tiny fraction of our galaxy, which is just one out of hundreds of billions. The Universe is just so stupefyingly, mind-blowingly enormous it's hard to say how common advanced civilizations are based on evidence from the scant few decades we've been listening for them.

Re: Coral dies all the time
As to circles... then you have to admit that the sat data was adjusted.
Confirmed. If you don't want to go in circles then stop going back on past admissions.
As to the graph from Church:
http://s18.postimg.org/oschmgb...I know how to read a graph like this from my analysis of futures markets. The graph is the reverse of what you see in those charts because the past is increasingly uncertain where as in a financial chart they know exactly what the price was but what the price will be is less certain.
Note the red line and the two green lines I made that are parallel to it. The line is quite linear. It dips down below the range for a time but then goes into the middle of it. When you describe a data set from NATURE or a market as being linear you don't mean the line is LITERALLY straight. You mean it is essentially straight within a margin of uncertainty or random variability.
As to my issue being that results are not what I think they should be... and what then is your scramble to find a reason for the "pause"? The pause is only a problem if you don't expect it and its existence is a problem for your theories which you're very married to at this point.
There is a lot of projection in these little insults you've started throwing at me. Why you'd think the insults would matter to me is sort of baffling to me. If there's anything you should have gathered already it is that I am inherently antisocial.
As such... peer pressure... of which your various judgements basically fall into... they just don't mean anything to me. You're using dog arguments on a cat. You're presuming to use herd mentality and pack mentality on someone that just doesn't think in those terms. I don't respond to personal judgments like that. They just don't mean anything to me.

Re:Evidence?
Here is something that is going to make you feel even more stupid than you already are.
Apple Mac OS X flat style ripoff comparison
I don't know where you got that BOGUS screenshot; but OS X looks NOTHING like that picture. Here is the current version of OS X, "Yosemite" (10.10) and the soon-to-be-released "El Capitan" (10.11).
Although it is certainly "flatter" than it used to be, as you can plainly see, it looks NOTHING like those horrid, fugly, trumped-up pictures you linked. In fact, if you scroll down on the "Yosemite" Page I linked to the point where it says "More elegant, from A to Z", you will see how the Finder window ALLEGEDGLY depicted in the ALLEGED 10.10 Screenshot you linked REALLY looks.

Not to spoil but the main problems are:
1. People that remained on classic Slashdot theme expects just that: the classic theme. Please don't change it. Considering that the main elements of the articles didn't change much (title, summary, number of comments, submitter, link, etc), the same going for the comments (title, score, commenter, date, etc) it shouldn't be hard to make a separate theme for this (admittedly stubborn) users and leave it alone.
2. The new "cartoon balloon" showing the number of comments is overlapping when the article is collapsed (see first screenshot above)
3. Seems like the old way to show the number of comments was forgotten below the cartoon balloon (see first screenshot above)
4. In the sidebar, seems like "This day on Slashdot" was completely forgotten in the new style (see second screenshot above)
5. It's really acceptable after being bought by Dice to show "Latest Tech Jobs" prominently in the sidebar, we understand that's one of the perks of being the owner. But at least put back the Poll above the fold and push Slashdot Deals and Featured Videos below the fold. 6. It may not have been the intention but it feels really underhanded to replace the (probable) most clicked link in the homepage (Read More) and replace it with the "Share" button. That will more likely to be the main complain, will cost Slashdot a lot of old timers and probably will be as loudly rejected as Beta.
And most important of all: please to eat the comments. I tried to post this exact comment, it went through and suddenly it disappeared (see below). As I had the submitted comments in another window I managed to take the screenshots and to save the text I wrote so carefully

Changes from the original submissionThe edits made by Slashdot editors on my original submission (that can be read here) are very telling. Fyodor isn't warning that he doesn't control Sourceforge nmap mirror, he is accusing them of hijacking his Sourceforge nmap account, removing the content and creating a mirror that he doesn't control.
The original title was "Sourceforge Hijacks the Nmap Sourceforge Account" and it was the same title Fyodor used on its post to the maillist. Losing the original Sourceforge original nmap account (created by nmap developers themselves) is not the same news as him not controlling "nmap SourceForge Mirror". The same expression was also changed in the submission body.
Two other important parts from the the original submission removed by the editor:
1. The statement by SourceForge themselves that (emphasis mine):At this time, we present third party offers only with a few projects where it is explicitly approved by the project developer, or if the project is already bundling third party offers.
2. The reference by Fyodor that even if Sourceforge still isn't bundling anything on nmap, the page is designed to mislead the users with fake download buttons:
"So far they seem to be providing just the official Nmap files (as long as you don't click on the fake download buttons) (...)
Below I repost the original submission so you can compare:
Sourceforge Hijacks the Nmap Sourceforge Account
Gordon Lyon (better known as Fyodor, author of nmap and maintainer of the internet security resource sites insecure.org, nmap.org, seclists.org, and sectools.org) warns on the nmap development mailing list that the Sourceforge Nmap account was hijacked from him.
According to him the old Nmap project page (located at http://sourceforge.net/project..., screenshot) was changed to a blank page and its contents were moved to a new page (http://sourceforge.net/projects/nmap.mirror/, screenshot) which controlled by sf-editor1 and sf-editor3, in pattern mirroring the much discussed the takeover of GIMP-Win page discussed last week on Ars Technica, IT World and eventually this week Slashdot.
That happens after Sourceforge promises to stop "presenting third party offers for unmaintained SourceForge projects. At this time, we present third party offers only with a few projects where it is explicitly approved by the project developer, or if the project is already bundling third party offers."
To their credit Fyodor states that "So far they seem to be providing just the official Nmap files (as long as you don't click on the fake download buttons) and we haven't caught them trojaning Nmap the way they did with GIMP" but reiterates "that you should only download Nmap from our official SSL Nmap site: https://nmap.org/download.html" -
Changes from the original submissionThe edits made by Slashdot editors on my original submission (that can be read here) are very telling. Fyodor isn't warning that he doesn't control Sourceforge nmap mirror, he is accusing them of hijacking his Sourceforge nmap account, removing the content and creating a mirror that he doesn't control.
The original title was "Sourceforge Hijacks the Nmap Sourceforge Account" and it was the same title Fyodor used on its post to the maillist. Losing the original Sourceforge original nmap account (created by nmap developers themselves) is not the same news as him not controlling "nmap SourceForge Mirror". The same expression was also changed in the submission body.
Two other important parts from the the original submission removed by the editor:
1. The statement by SourceForge themselves that (emphasis mine):At this time, we present third party offers only with a few projects where it is explicitly approved by the project developer, or if the project is already bundling third party offers.
2. The reference by Fyodor that even if Sourceforge still isn't bundling anything on nmap, the page is designed to mislead the users with fake download buttons:
"So far they seem to be providing just the official Nmap files (as long as you don't click on the fake download buttons) (...)
Below I repost the original submission so you can compare:
Sourceforge Hijacks the Nmap Sourceforge Account
Gordon Lyon (better known as Fyodor, author of nmap and maintainer of the internet security resource sites insecure.org, nmap.org, seclists.org, and sectools.org) warns on the nmap development mailing list that the Sourceforge Nmap account was hijacked from him.
According to him the old Nmap project page (located at http://sourceforge.net/project..., screenshot) was changed to a blank page and its contents were moved to a new page (http://sourceforge.net/projects/nmap.mirror/, screenshot) which controlled by sf-editor1 and sf-editor3, in pattern mirroring the much discussed the takeover of GIMP-Win page discussed last week on Ars Technica, IT World and eventually this week Slashdot.

MRA vs WRA
I like the dichotomy here.
Mens Rights Activists, vilified by the official narrative and openly mocked for having concerns by post-modernist radfems and their sycophants in the media, stage a polite boycott about a movie they dislike.
Militant Women Supremecists, praised as holy saints who can do no wrong by official narrative, openly harass an award winning feminist writer until he has to flee Twitter to avoid the twitter public shaming mob instigated by the white knight moron behind Anita Sarkeesian's con game.
It's the Women are Wonderful effect in action. Fascinating to see, really.
Oh, and Aaron Clarey has a rebuttal video about this mess, which is being ignored as it doesn't fit narrative:

Re:Technology allows
Urban myth. There is no appreciable difference in population growth when there are power outages or even during winter.
Says who? Unfortunately I couldn't find a chart of births by month in the US, so I had to make my own.
Here's a plot of the results: http://postimg.org/image/3qa37...
Data source: http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data_a...Unfortunately the data doesn't provide day of birth, only month of birth, so I normalized by dividing by the number of days in the month in 2013 which gives me births/days per month. Assuming 2013 wasn't an atypical year, there's a definite peak in births from July to September, which suggests more babies are being conceived in winter than in summer.
Here are the raw numbers:
J: 10461
F: 10441
M: 10360
A: 10409
M: 10651
J: 10682
J: 11287
A: 11428
S: 11295
O: 11011
N: 10641

I wish I was kidding. That's really what it looks like. Client side window decorations... Awful and unusable. -
Re:GTK+ 3 is an abomination.
Just to reinforce that point, here is a screen-shot of gedit 3.10.4 on my ubuntu 14.10 system.
