But it has to be cool because Elliot uses it. Unless he's running Kali off a USB, of course.

TIME magazine in 1996 bragging about how we interfered in the Russian election.

The outcome was by no means inevitable. Last winter Yeltsin's approval ratings were in the single digits. There are many reasons for his change in fortune, but a crucial one has remained a secret. For four months, a group of American political consultants clandestinely participated in guiding Yeltsin's campaign.

For two days the supersecretive Yeltsin high command avoided Dresner, and none of the team ever actually met the President. "There are too many factions and too many leaks to risk your dealing with him directly," Braynin explained to Dresner. "You are our biggest secret."

...who have used race baiting against working whites in the same way white supremacists attack black and latinos. It's an inversion of LBJ's famous observation about poor southern whites:

"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."

Only instead of getting poor whites to resent minorities who have never done a thing to them, it's getting poor minorities to resent white people who have never done anything to them. And all the while, the fine folks at COINTELPRO are laughing their asses off as people ignore the deep state crony capitalists hiding behind the curtain.

"89 percent of hiring managers report difficulty in finding qualified talent for open source roles" When your job ad demands 7-10 years of experience in a thing that isn't even 10 years old then yeah, you might have some difficulty "finding quality talent" because you're being ridiculous. Job ad bullet points are used as filters and do a great job (ha!) of filtering out all of the ideal candidates in favor of the ones that will gladly lie about their skill sets yet can't write anything more trivial than strcpy() on a whiteboard. Maybe you stop looking for "workers with cloud experience" and start looking for "workers that have great system administration skills who we'll train to use the specific 'cloud' thingy we're using this month." After all, what these job posts that demand a "hit the ground running" candidate fail to realize is that they have to train the new employee in the operations and peculiarities unique to their business anyway. Pay a decent wage and write realistic job applications and give everyone who applies in earnest a fair shake and you might not have so much "difficulty finding quality talent."

I recently found the answer to this. During the great recession all companies down-sized to deal with the contracting economy. This also meant downsizing HR. HR also began receiving floods of applications for jobs due to high unemployment. HR's response to this was to implement a much more sophisticated ATS (Applicant Tracking System). These ATS's parse resumes and cover letters to do keyword matching to compute a scorecard. They also prefer a LinkedIn style resume. If you use certain fonts, formatting, etc. it won't be able to parse your resume and you will get a very low rating on your scorecard. It then takes all the scorecards and ranks them in descending order so that HR supposedly knows which applications to spend time looking at and disregard the rest. The problem is the ATS's don't work very well. You can search online to find out why. There are also applicants "gaming the system" to get artificially inflated scores. I also believe some of the ATS's are configured in such a way that would be considered unethical with ulterior motives. This is however all legal because the Department of Labor hasn't established rules beyond discrimination against a protected class of citizen.

Just because something is an awful idea doesn't mean the Deep State won't try it. Look at what they did to Iraq, was that a good idea? And Egypt. And Libya. And Syria. And, and, and. They're experimenters, fiddlers. They like to mess with stuff. They're insulated from the consequences of their failures, so why not? It's not their kids dying out there.

What do you mean "calling for censorship." They've not been calling for it, they've been pushing for it. Just like progressives and pro-social justice people have been pushing to shut down speeches/talks/etc by people that have views contrary to the ones they hold. The kicker? The guy who pushed the story used to work for buzzfeed, the same organization with a history of doxing people. One can only hope that this guy goes Hulk Hogan on them, and destroys CNN for their own stupidity. And with them pushing absolute garbage like this, the first nail in their coffin should be the revoking of their WH press pass.

CNN coerced him to apologize by threatening to dox him, and now is claiming that he called them to apologize first. Check the timestamps and archive links here.

Which has caused a whole big pile of new anti-CNN memes. My favorites are the ISIS apology video ones. example here. And another. Also, this guy showed up. Even the theater in the park got involved.

Looks like pretty much everyone is now piling on. Here is Julian Assange, Donald Trump Jr., the Washington Times.

It is pretty much the only topic now on The_Donald and has numerous threads on /pol/ (warning, NSFL). Front and center on Breitbart News and Drudge.

Oh, and the guy's identity is pretty much out there already, making their threat moot.

4 out of 5 doctors approve: https://i.redd.it/wfbt456v0wqy...

What gets me is that the chances of dying from terrorism are tiny. I saw this graphic showing leading causes of death in perspective. Heart disease and cancer are the two big ones. Terrorism is a tiny dot. I decided to look up the hard numbers too, figuring that the graphic could be exaggerating things.

There were about 28,000 deaths from terrorism world-wide in 2015 (Source). (If we limit it to US only, the number is much smaller.) Meanwhile, 610,000 people in the US die of heart disease every year. 17.7 million in the world (Source). You would need over 630 YEARS of terrorism deaths to equal 1 year of heart disease death.

So if we're supposed to be quaking in our boots over terrorism, what should we be doing over heart disease?!!!

The same people who told you Trump had a 2% chance of winning now give you his approval polls. Proceed accordingly.

According to a RiME developer it "ensures the best gaming experience for RiME players"
https://i.redd.it/7uf386xpkwzy...

AMD's Threadripper is likely to be much more attractive I think. Ryzen seems to have the edge at the moment, especially in efficiency terms. How hot are these Intel chips going to run? Plus AMD's parts will be much, much cheaper.

I doubt it, Intel saw where Ryzen was going after the first launch and extrapolated, they went from 10 to 18 cores on the high end. It's $500 for the 1800x with 8 cores, bigger chips = lower yields so double+ for 16 cores that'll still have two less cores, probably slightly lower max clock and IPC than Intel too. I'm guessing threadripper will be a $1200 chip that'll compete with Intel's $1400/1700 chips. They won't let AMD get another PR win like the first Ryzen launch.

You haven't been paying attention, have you?

Ryzen is designed in "CCX" modules that are linked together to allow for better scaling. A larger die size doesn't bring about yield problems to the same degree as it does in traditional designs. Threadripper is also huge to allow for cooling. Look at this surface area: https://i.redd.it/fb8obad77e0z...

Yes, clock speeds will go down as core count goes up. Yes, Intel will still have higher IPC, and possibly even higher clocks.
No, Intel will not win on performance/$. Not by a long shot. I'd be shocked if the 16-core Threadripper comes out at anything more than $999.

That part where you don't even understand the basics of chan culture. I'm not sure what's funnier, that you continue to parrot bullshit over and over and over again. Or that you seem to believe it. Whether it's "gamergate is full of misogynist neckbeards" supporting Sarkeesian the idiot that believes demurely dressed Elizabeth Comstock is "sexualized" or the "pepe is a hate symbol." Thanks for explaining and showing everyone what a normie is though.

Gonna be a real blow when you find out that those "white supremacists" are actually black, asian, and so on like so many times in the past. That the vast majority of what you see is to simply drive people like you into a "OMG THE WHITE SUPREMACISITS R EVRAYWARE!" and away from /pol/ /b/ and so on. You know, kinda like that person who called in bomb threats against synagogues in the US was an Israeli-American citizen, living in Israel, and Israel just refused to extradite him. Or one of those multiple big name anti-gamergate people have been arrested, charged with rape, have multiple claims of sexual assault, or even one of the big anti-GG reporters was charged with 8 counts of bomb threats against jewish centers. And according to the FBI there hasn't been a single case linked to any member of gamergate...at all.

No the point/loss recovery doesn't balance out. You mean the point that there is no penalty for killing someone? Gee. Maybe you need to dust off your copy, or go buy one. It's cheap these days on steam, it'll take you less then 2hrs to get to that level. On top of that, this is the type of stuff she considered "sexualized". You're cheering on a person who is no different then Jack Thompson.

Because the idea that there are alternate facts and all viewpoints are equally valid needs to die.

Like this one? How about this one? Same facts, yet both MSM and yourself feel that only one of the two facts in the screenshots are "real" and the other is simply "fake". There's more, like for example this one. Or this one

If the ideology you spout:

the idea that there are alternate facts and all viewpoints are equally valid needs to die.

You reserve the right to change your mind. Sure. It's just in line with your belief that gamergate is a harassment campaign. By the way, this is PewDiePie's "fall." In other words, nothing.

Let's skip the crazy and go right to the insane.

The press tone hasn't changed, it's just that the republicans have moved from conservative to fascist.

Uh-huh. Republicans are fascist. Oh boy! Look at all those progressives and so on openly supporting actual fascism. What shall the world ever do in the face of such hypocrisy and failing self-realization that they're everything that they claim the opposition is.

CNN cropped out the ISIS finger salute and Jihad scarf from the Fort Lauderdale attacker's picture, and made it black and white. FAKE NEWS! Photo proof here.

Oh do please tell us, all you Wikileaks supporters, just how wonderful an organization it is, as it begins the process of trying to fuck over hundreds of thousands of people whose only crime was verifying their account.

Sure. Let me just start this with something important.

The article is false. Wikileaks does not wish to dox anyone. They wish to create a database of influence. Politician X votes a certain way, you can check and see he was paid off by Corporation Y. Journalist A working for Publication B is owned by Corporation C, which has connections to X, Y, Z, W.

For example, here's a list of reporters who were outed as colluding with the Hillary Clinton campaign via the email leaks.

http://imgur.com/a/oO3FS

Here's a second, more exhaustive list: https://i.redd.it/ol970kkt2nyx...

And Breitbart has more details: http://www.breitbart.com/wikil...

(Remember kids, the Genetic Fallacy -- "Herp Derp BREITBART FAKE NEWS" -- means your argument is invalid and I win!)

So. How many of those reporters had disclaimers mentioning that they were actively working with HRC's campaign on their articles talking about HRC, Bernie, or Trump?

Basically, Wikileaks is talking about taking the GamerGate corruption and conflict of interest database, http://deepfreeze.it/ , and port the idea to the mainstream.

Now, having put the above information forward -- the example of the kind of collusion and influence that Wikileaks is wanting to create a map of, can you see why the people at CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News would be a liiiitle upset that someone might want to make a database following their biases, conflicts of interest, nepotism, and the like?

I don't know if you were alive these last 8 years, but anyone who mocked or belittled the President was immediately shouted down as racist. With Trump in office, it will become OK to criticize the President again, which is a huge improvement.

Investigative journalism will also make a big comeback, after an 8 year hibernation. The positives will just keep coming. The media is supposed to exist in eternal opposition to the government, but during Obama they twisted their purpose and became pro-government mouthpieces. They were caught red-handed supporting Hillary's campaign. California does not require any proof of citizenship to vote.

Did your news tell you that Japanese Deputy Prime Minister Aso said today, "There's no point in Japan making policy based on the guesses of American newspapers when they're always wrong"? Why didn't your news tell you this? Maybe your news is fake news!

Is your news telling you Sessions is racist and yet he marched at Selma with civil rights leaders? Fake news!

If your news outlet didn't mention that Hillary got caught on tape rigging the 2006 Palestinian elections, you were definitely watching fake news.

Most damning of all, is your news telling you not to listen to alternative sources of news? THINK about that one for a minute. Who on earth would ever say something like that? Fake news, that's who.

The Guardian 'one of the most extreme left news outlets in the UK'? Ha!

What else would you call a paper that tried to pass off a crying middle-aged adult as 16 years old in a story about "children" not being accept by the UK when they finally closed down Calais? How stupid do they think people are?

Fake news, you say? Would this amazing coincidence of dozens of media outlets running the exact same theme qualify? This isn't news, it's coordinated propaganda. Fox News? You're missing the forest for the trees.

Sounds like the plot of the show "The Internet Ruined My Life".

Sometimes, I wish that reality was more like fiction. Then you start seeing shit like this.

Despite what the article says, I'm going to go with the "this is not unwittingly." Those teachers and organizations know or should know exactly what they're doing.Seems like some kids are able to. The court case for anyone who wants to read it. Keep in mind that the UK is the same country that tried to create life-long student records for "extremism." And there was also most recently the trojan horse scandal, and on top of that a school recently turned around and said that "If you don't go to the mosque, they'll be marked down as a racist for their entire school career." FYI: School is in the same region as the trojan horse scandal. The UK has a lot of problems.
