'Silk Road Reloaded' Launches On a Network More Secret Than Tor

rossgneumann writes A new anonymous online drug market has emerged, but instead of using the now infamous Tor network, it uses the lesser known "I2P" alternative. "Silk Road Reloaded" launched yesterday, and is only accessible by downloading the special I2P software, or by configuring your computer in a certain way to connect to I2P web pages, called 'eepsites', and which end in the suffix .i2p. The I2P project site is informative, as is the Wikipedia entry.

Re:Some people think citations are for the lazy

[circletimessquare]

this is a casual forum, not a job or a research paper

if you don't understand what the topic is, yes, you should do your research. if someone is nice and points the way, thank them. if someone doesn't respond, yo don't have a right to feel angry or slighted: nobody is your father here. no one owes you holding your hand and explaining a topic to you

yes, it would be nice if people who are knowledgeable would offer sources more often. the problem is not that they don't. the problem is thankless lazy and immature types who demand it and get angry if they don't

that is the wrong dynamic: they should be asking nicely and thanking. no one owes you anything here, you have no right to get angry or make demands. when facing such a person, no one feels the desire or need to respond to that dynamic, it's without reward

there's also the dynamic of people who are challenged on ideological beliefs who go "proof or stfu!" who have no intention of intellectual honesty and will not be fairly swayed by proof. if you are genuinely interested in forming an ideology based on actual proof, you would be motivated yourself to seek out proof on your own. but too often people make their ideological conclusions then ignore all proof to the contrary. they demand someone counter their illogical positions with logic. which is impossible. it's just empty deflection, the demand for proof that will never be fairly considered

and so there is no utility in carefully citing your sources on demand from an angry person on a casual internet forum. if someone asks nicely and thanks the person for sources, some may come out of their shell. but they are in their shell for a reason: the common boorishness, laziness, immaturity, and intellectual dishonesty on internet forums means it is not worth the effort of responding to angry demands for proof

as in real life, "please" and "thank you" get you real results
