Only problem with that is that there is an increasing number of people who are trying to make a living from the work they present online. Those people need a reputation, and an effective harasser can really hurt their ability to make a living. In this situation, "ignoring the troll" might be the worst thing to do.
No doubt about it. X-Com is the greatest game ever created in the entire history of mankind. Even once I figured out how to win in the first turn it was still fun to play.
Next would be TOAW. It's the best war boardgame ever made. If it's been improved upon, please let me know.
I also loved Delta Force Land Warrior--until the cheaters destroyed it.
Rear view in your helmet visor would be awesome. Fucking radar off the back of the bike with software that could warn of a wobbly driver approaching from behind--priceless.
Yes, you have a moral duty to your corporate overlord to serve it to the best of your ability. You must strive to do more than the job that you are paid to do because that is your moral duty. In return, you can fully expect your corporate overlord to honor its moral duty to you (because it has no duty to you).
Rollercoaster Tycoon was the only game I've ever played that implemented object orientation so beautifully that even the user of the game could appreciate it. I remain impressed to this day.
You idiots! This is all happening because you insist on spying on your fellow citizens. I will support any politician who votes to gut your damn budget.
Now you're going to spy on me, I'm sure. Because you're not good Americans.
I think you're making good points. If I own a toll bridge, I know that my bridge is going to be used to transport all kinds of stolen property. Still, I shouldn't be liable for such transport.

Does anybody know whether or not it automatically monitors sleep quality.

Otherwise, I'd agree with you.
What's the energy cost to physically produce a bitcoin? Anybody know?
Energy is more than money. It is power--in all senses of the word.
You probably mean 'asymmetric,' but what the hell. Very good post.
Except this time the snark was perfectly delivered at the perfect target.
That "beyond the law" comment is outrageous. For that man, "too much privacy" is "beyond the law."
In Australia aren't the people allowed to know what their police force's "operational capability" is?
We have to fuck with the villagers in order to save them.

I'm "against" the tobacco industry, but I'm not a tobacco prohibitionist. Same as to marijuana.
On the other hand, I am against the methamphetamine industry and I am a methamphetamine prohibitionist.
Other drugs require more thought and /. isn't worth that.
Make a GardenBot that works, and you'll become a trillionaire.
I sure hope the hackers comply with HIPAA. They sure will be in a lot of trouble if they don't.

I can't wait for my programmable Bike HUD!!!

Stupid.
All those frameworks and APIs not only introduce all sorts of programming complexity, but they also turn programs into memory gluttons.
It often appears that real craftsmanship (making the most efficient code for the job) is no longer valued.
I am so fucking glad that I am an American! There is a fuckload to bitch about in my country, but damn it's good to be a U.S. Citizen.

Smooth and strong is what I want.

Get the message, dammit!

You look just like the description of a bank robber that just robbed a bank one hundred meters away.
You don't know what the police know.
In other words, the police might have perfectly justifiable reasons to take your phone--and you don't know those reasons.
ALWAYS take that into account when making your decisions.
