And by "hundreds of people"...
...you mean hundreds of thousands, as numerous pictures from Newspapers and Twitter have shown.
The rest of your post is of similar accuracy.
Now why don't you tell us how Euromaidan in Ukraine is "just a handful of extremists"?

Re:1984 happened in 1976... ignorant /. article he
Don't bother sparring with Todd Giffen, it's not just my opinion that he's "certifiable", he spends a lot of time at Oregon's Funny Farm in Salem. These days, he believes that the NSA beams signals into his head that force him to masturbate in public parks around the Eugene / Springfield area. How's the court case going, Todd?

Re:1984 happened in 1976... ignorant /. article he
"Retarded"?
Like some nut job from Springfield, Oregon who thinks the NSA beans signals into his head that make him masturbate in public parks ? Hows the court case going? Been arrested again recently ?
That kind of "retarded"?

Re:Slight problem with your storyline
Sweden can't make any such promise because Extradition is a court matter
Repeating Big Lies you've been told doesn't make them true.
"It is simply untrue that it is Swedish courts, rather than the Swedish government, who are the final decision-makers in extradition requests. It is equally untrue that the Swedish government has no final decision-making power regarding extradition requests that are legally sanctioned by the Swedish judiciary. These are not matters for reasonable debate. The law is clear."
I would be cautious to hang your argument on Greenwald's table pounding, considering that his support for that conclusion has been debunked by the very author he cites.

There's always Hacker News
While the Beta mess is sorted out (I hope it is!), why not cool down your nerves and relax at Hacker News. That's most close to Slashdot of the sites I can think. Comes with a premium no-frills UI that is great with all devices, and HTTPS out of the box. Pair that with newsyc20 Twitter feed and you're all set.

Re:Find the NAME of the man who gave the order!
Although, Her Twitter seems a more promising contact channel. Still active.
After reading through other linked profles from her Google Plus profile, especially the CrunchBase one, I'm getting pretty confident that I've nailed it.
Who else would have the power to force through such a profound destruction of value, stretched through such a long time period without any checks?
If you really want this madness stopped, petition the boss of Dice Holdings, Michael P. Durney - President and CEO or possibly Klavs Miller - Senior Vice President, Technology.
If someone else better skilled in writing would make a petition on http://www.petitiononline.com/ and direct it at those guys, that would be so much more effective than ranting here in comments, which these people probably had never looked at.

Re:Find the NAME of the man who gave the order!
Although, Her Twitter seems a more promising contact channel. Still active.
After reading through other linked profles from her Google Plus profile, especially the CrunchBase one, I'm getting pretty confident that I've nailed it:
Hill was named Managing Director of Dice.com in November 2010. She is responsible for the development and direction of all activities for Dice.com, with particular emphasis on product development and innovation, building and maintaining industry presence, and managing large account sales. Dice.com, a Dice Holdings company, is the leading career website for technology and engineering professionals, and the companies that seek to employ them. NYSE: DHX
in 2012 Hill was appointed President of Slashdot Media - running the SF and NY-based company and its three media properties, SourceForge, Slashdot and FreeCode. Slashdot Media is owned by parent Company Dice Holdings, Inc.Who else would have the power to force through such a profound destruction of value, stretched through such a long time period without any checks?

Re:Find the NAME of the man who gave the order!
A person directed the Slashdot redesign.
Who is he?
I think that either SHE (Alice Hill - President at Slashdot Media) did or she knows exactly who did. Quoting from her experience:
"10+ years experience managing large-scale consumer Web properties from conceptualization and staffing, to product innovation, large-scale redesigns and platform overhauls, mobile versions, multi-lingual content creation/production, international engineering team management, and next-stage product growth/roadmap development.".
Her or her subordinates' actions currently directly undermine the business of HER (Joyce Goh, Director, Ad Operations at Slashdot Media (Dice Holdings, Inc.)).
Of course, I might be wrong, but that's what I came up with after 30 seconds of Googling (which, apparently, noone else in this thread bothered to do).
BTW, she has a handle here on Slashdot (no activity since 2004, though - talk about eating one's own dogfood... I mean, it's almost 10 years of no activity) - you can try asking her directly...

Re:How to break the ice
Give the users what they want on the desktop. Give them what they loved about Windows 7 back and give it them for free. Maybe go so far as to offer a free copy of the previous version of Office to everyone who suffered through Windows 8.1 or 8.0.
Well if leaked screenshots of Windows 8.1 update 1 are true as well as the boot to desktop which every tech site but slashdot mentioned is coming I would say MS is doing just that.
AngelWZR leaked Windows 8.1 screenshots too before other betas hit the web and is fairly reputable. That screenshot looked almost identical to Windows 7 but with the metro apps acting like regular applications in it.

Re:Pshaw... it's just weather!
Arctic ice extent is expanding again... [Jane Q. Public]
Here we go again. Jane's comments on sea level, UAH and surface temperatures follow a pattern. First, Jane plucks a short term trend from the noise and waves it around. Scientists then point out that Jane's trend is so short that it just represents weather noise, not climate signal. Jane then insists that waving around short term trends isn't meant to imply anything about the long term trend. Rinse, repeat.
... the Antarctic summer is colder than usual, with even more sea ice.
So, consistent with Manabe et al. 1991 page 811: "... sea surface temperature hardly changes and sea ice slightly increases near the Antarctic Continent in response to the increase of atmospheric carbon dioxide."
... all the while, we've been experiencing a weak "El Nino" event. So even with ENSO on the warming side, it has been very cold in much of the world.
The last point on NOAA's MEI index is -0.312, which is on the La Nina side but effectively neutral.
This was from my friendly neighborhood meteorologist, last Monday. It is possible he is wrong, but he is a recognized expert in his field, not a "meteorologist" on TV. I suppose we shall see.
No link and no name = argument from inscrutable authority. In reality, we might have an El Nino by July which will serve as the basis for the talking point I mentioned at WUWT.
Some of those who disagree did so from the very beginning, on the premise that it's the Sun and other natural factors that drives climate change, not CO2. Just a fact.
Yes, many contrarians operate under the premise that climate change is natural and not driven by human CO2 emissions. In contrast, scientists measure contributions from many natural factors, and many human factors. Scientists don't start from either biased premise, but obviously contrarians do. Thanks for finally being honest, Jane.

Re:Fun Facts
Not true. They actually use radiation on my genitals to fucking rape me, simulate massage, and other abusive things (nerve compression/virtual sex). But this is what others report is happening to them, too.
Also I was falsely arrested because the police have this technology locally in the area, and they've been using it to hurt me, and I get targeted with them for abuses, false arrests, etc. Yep, so false arrest, inducement of situations, and other abuses. This is what they're doing to people. Just like Dr. Robert Duncan said.
I am currently going to court and expect a big defense all related to this technologies misuse in the area, with experts.
My twitter feed is really clean and I have over 1300 followers. Including big names like NBC, some human rights lawyers from Fox News, quite a few media outlets like Der Speigel, CNN, ACLU, etc. I am not saying they all support me, in fact.. I think the ACLU fucking sucks. And most of these places could have blown the door off this with a story, but so far haven't done shit.

Not just the government.
It's not just the federal government (healthcare.gov) that's fucked this up; state exchanges (like Covered California, supposedly on the forefront of things, to say nothing of Oregon's health exchange, who, to put it kindly, isn't at the top of the heap) have also fucked this up.
But it's not just the governments that have fucked this up. The private insurers have fucked this up beyond all recognition. Anthem's web-based payment system was unable to accept payments during the last week of December. Customers who signed up weeks before the deadline weren't billed until the new year. Multi-hour wait times for humans have resulted in Anthem's CA PR-bot being inundated with complaints.
You don't have insurance until you actually pay. This is difficult when the insurance company itself refuses to accept payment.

Re:Mission accomplished
First, you are not using technically accurate terms. DNA is DNA. RNA is RNA. Different sequences of DNA are possible and have been observed. Same for RNA. To date, however, no substitutes for DNA or RNA have been confirmed.
Your accusation is baseless; I haven't confused DNA and RNA. In fact, I've explained how different types of shadow biospheres might or might not keep the same RNA bases while using different DNA bases.
The notion that different molecules could be used as DNA analogs is certainly testable.
Yes, that's exactly my point. That's one reason why evolution is testable science, while creationism is religion.
In fact, if you recall, there was a recent claim that some bacteria used arsenic instead of phosphorus in their DNA... which would make it "not DNA". I am not aware of any reason to believe that "alternate DNA" would be any more or less susceptible to evolution than our known DNA. Therefore this hypothesis is just as testable as the other. The only difference is that it is not currently, actively testable given our state of technology, and we currently know of no examples.
Nobody's suggesting that alternate DNA would be any more or less susceptible to evolution. I'm just pointing out that we couldn't have evolved from creatures using alternative DNA bases. That's one reason why evolution is testable science, while creationism is religion. As I've explained:
"You’re talking about a shadow biosphere. It’s possible that abiogenesis happened several times, so finding two types of DNA wouldn’t falsify evolution. What I’m talking about is the scenario where every species in existence has a different set of nucleic acids in their DNA. Millions of separate abiogenesis events would completely destroy evolution. Ergo, it’s possible to find evidence which would disprove evolution. Ergo, evolution is falsifiable science."
Frankly I am not convinced that your argument "evolution is only compatible with 'all life uses the same DNA'", is any more plausible than the argument that "evolution is possible given a suitable alternative analog of DNA". The only difference I see is that only one of them is testable today. The flap over the "arsenic DNA" in Mono Lake shows that the other idea is at least plausible to many scientists.
Of course it's plausible. That's what I've been saying for years, so you obviously didn't understand my point. If every species in existence had different DNA bases, life on Earth couldn't have had a common ancestor. Again, this is one reason why evolution is testable science, while creationism is religion. As I've tweeted:
Creationism isn't even wrong. Evolution is science: it can be falsified by Precambrian apes, or if all species had different DNA bases, etc.
Just as, for years, there were no known methods to test for the existence of dark matter. Yet that did not stop many scientists from creating models based on it, nor did it get them ejected from the halls of science.
Here we go again. As I've repeatedly (and apparently pointlessly) explained to you, the first method of testing for the existence of dark matter was developed in 1933. I then tried to explain some of the following tests, but obviously I would've had better luck trying to educate my coffee table. At least it doesn't accuse me of being a

Re:Germany
Have you, America as a nation, let your hunger for war and hegemony override your once great ideals for the betterment of mankind?
No, but our cronies find it a far faster return on investment to manufacture consent for war through scaremongering. Don't forget, we went to space in a race to outdo other nations first. We're still dominant in that regard. I do seriously wish Europe, Asia and Indonesia the best of luck. We're all in this together. Here in Houston astronauts from all over the world train for EVA and re-entry. Off the coast of Florida they train for life in space habitats under the water in SEATEST. In Canada they learn to use the Canada Arm of the ISS, among many other things. The European Space Agency is currently helping China relay its moon rover data back to them. My main wish besides more funding is that NASA would get a prime-time TV show to inspire kids and young adults like JAXA has in Space Brothers. (an anime with the first ever voice-actor performance from space - JAXA astronaut Akihiko Hoshide from the ISS). Hell, the live action adaptation thereof has astronaut Buzz Aldrin playing himself. We just got that Gravity movie, and Curiosity's Twitter feed is great, but I do agree we could be doing far better in the space media department. Mars One is sort of forcing NASA's hand to commit to at least get some astronauts to loop around Mars and back (like we did with the moon before landing). Competition is good for space, bring it on!
In the press Russia and the US rattle sabers while in space we say, "Thanks for the supplies, comrade!" That divisionism drivel you're spouting is nice to goad statists into funding space programs, but to anyone in the know it makes you seem a bit foolish.

They also left other members of the community like Saurik out, which is just odd. I wouldn't trust my devices with personal information with the current jailbreak.
