Woman works in indsutry were ridiculous threats of grotesque violence are the norm...over teamspeak, over chat, on forums...everywhere. Woman thinks this "abuse" is special...because she's a woman. Special rules need to be made to stop the abuse that her solipsism has convinced her only happen to her (and by extension only women).
So basically it's the same shtick: women want equality except for when it's in a woman's interest (in this case preserving her ego) for women to be legislated superiority.
The sad part isn't that abuse happens, the sad part is that we keep lining up to give women special privileges because they're the "weaker sex" all while attempting to champion the cause of equality.

* Apparently, it may struggle with some very high bit rate encodes, but I've yet to see this in practice and is unlikely to be an issue for most people.
I can confirm. It chokes hard on any of my DTS audio'ed recordings.
I have a gaming PC that actually runs Linux (ie. Fedora) as my primary and only OS
Not many people are stupid enough to explicitly choose an unsupported OS to use on their dedicated gaming box. You are the absolute tale end of the bell curve, and I question your sanity for making this choice. At the very least, you're a sadist.
So what this has to do with fracking is that they thought that just pumping fluid back in would hold things up, but clearly that's not true.
That's not at all how it works. The fluid exists to create hydraulic pressure. They put sand or tiny ceramic balls in the water to fill the voids created by the fractures to "hold things up."
This article relates to what they do with all the water after it returns to surface. They go find another well that doesn't produce anymore (or drill a new one into a non-producing zone) and pump the water in. HOWEVER, salt water disposal (SWD) is an operation that has been going on for decades. It's not new or unique to fracturing in the slightest making this article just more incorrect bullshit, and your post only adds to that. Please stop posting if you don't know what you're talking about as this only adds to the incorrect info that surrounds this issue.
who get you fired for thinks you did OUTSIDE of work *cough* Brendan Eich *cough* the idea that I'm going to WILLINGLY put another bullet in these asshole's gun is preposterous. It should come as no surprise to employers who place inclusiveness and diversity as corporate goals above profit and shareholder value that no one wants to risk inadvertently being offensive on a social intranet.
There's actual a valid answer to this, I'm assuming, rhetorical question: the "locals" are not breeding at a high enough rate to propogate the pyramid schemes that are hyperconsumerism and social security.
Well, valid, for some corporatist/politcal definition of valid.
You say "no", but even if we accept the study by a hyper-partisan group with a specific objective of removing immigrants as valid, what you posted doesn't actually contradict what I said.
Now, we can argue to hell and back what constitutes "taking jobs", but the fact that they're trying as hard as possible to be Americans is an important one.
I struggle to call wanting citizenship to be "trying as hard as possible to be Americans." All of the foriegn workers I know live in insular communities with others from their region of the globe, and adamantly refuse to let go of the majority of their native culture including language and customs. That, to me, isn't trying all that hard to be an American...except on paper.
The "general population", and the "population of qualified tech workers" are two very different things...
If only the post made that comparison, but no...the comparison is to 1950s professional baseball players. I have neither enough faces or palms for this one.
I was thinking some years ago "If all the jobs went to China because no one in the US wants the factory worker life, who is gonna build Chinese doohickeys when *they* get tired of the factory life?"
I was thinking India. Or Malaysia, or Chile or something..
But not the USA. I never even considered that possibility.
WTF. This world no longer makes any sense to me.
It makes perfect sense. After enough time of disparaging the factory life, Americans are finally realizing that it beats the alternative.
At this point, it's hard to take seriously any of the right wing complaints against Obama. Even if a particular one might be justified, there has been so much fake outrage from them that they just look like clowns.
As opposed to the fake outrage that the liberals use as their calling card to activism for everything?

For that to happen, Obama would have to be involved. So far EVERY single detail of this so called "scandal" has uncovered that the President knew about it. Most likely because the actions of every single bureaucrat doesn't involve the President.
I'm sorry, but Obama has played that card far, far too many times in his tenure. At what point do you either call bullshit or realize that he chose these assholes that are currently running amok to work for him thusly making it his fault.
Or it could be FAKE NEWS and the others refuse to report on made up bullshit? A Lot of news outlets are prone to make shit up. CNN did that over and over, Fox news has, etc...
Until I see at least three separate reported stories on different sources of it with complete information, I treat everything reported on Fox news or ANY other news outlet and 100% bullshit.
Our fucking news sources are 90% entertainment and 10% professional today.
First you say that "others refuse to report on made up bullshit." Then you go on to say that, basically, all the MSM reports on made up bullshit. Color me confused.
That companies are now eschewing profits in favor of pushing diversity. How and why investors/stockholders are pushing for this stuff is beyond me. It does not positively impact the bottom line, and that's all they SHOULD care about. Activist investors looking to make companies waste money on social crusades need to give up.
make a professional class of primary school teachers who were insulated from political fortunes and were professionally schooled in the art of teaching.
So what happened? As now we're left with a class of primary school teachers who chose to be ""professionally" schooled in the art of teaching because all the other majors were too hard (aka, not very professional).
I'm glad I have my own modem. The idea that I now have to share the bandwidth that I'm paying for (and not getting) with anyone that happens to drive by, is infuriating.
"Giving consumers a better product" would be going out and making their own movies that are better than Hollywood's. No laws against that anywhere. It's also not what they're doing.
Because it's actually a free market, and if you COULD produce a better product, you'd totally be able to displace Hollywood films in getting into theatres. Right? Right?
I can only speculate that at some point regular sellers and buyers will 'take their business elsewhere' because the parasitism of HFT and it's successors reaches the point that NOT using the standard markets is more cost effective.
Considering that a significant (though not overwhelming) chunk of the market is taken up by people storing securities in retirement accounts (i.e. 401k), and that the market has been blessed by the government as THE vehicle with which to save for retirement by making these purchases tax free, there's a large portion that simply won't ever "take their business elsewhere," because there's no place else to go without getting slammed with income tax. So these semi-blind investors are getting "taxed" by HFTers on their untaxed retirement investments, and it's better than the alternative. HFTers are taking advantage of anyone with a 401k.

50% of STEM workers have no degree 50% of SETM degree'd folks don't work in STEM ...yet somehow corporations "need" H1-Bs?
So basically it's the same shtick: women want equality except for when it's in a woman's interest (in this case preserving her ego) for women to be legislated superiority.
The sad part isn't that abuse happens, the sad part is that we keep lining up to give women special privileges because they're the "weaker sex" all while attempting to champion the cause of equality.
Then, and only then, can the FBI credibly worry about this.

I am positive these big companies go out of their way to only hire white dudes. I bet the CEOs all have white sheets and pointy hats in their closets.
I bet they only print on white paper too, those bastards.
