WTF?
When did I ever state that I based my morality on "I can do whatever I want as long as it is not purposely designed to do harm"?
What is right and what is wrong does not correlate with what is and is not Malice.
You still have to have the intent.
Malice is not firing a shotgun at a beer can because you want to see it "Blowed Up!" and not giving a fuck about the 3 people standing behind the beer can.
They do not give a shit about you.
.com is not useless.
You can teach people to do smart things like look at what comes just before the.com to ID the site.
BofA.randomdomain.com looks much different than BofA.com
Once everyone has a.com and a.whatever things will get more difficult for the idiots on the internet.
Since they will not take my advice and refuse internet access to all idiots that means they will get infected and send spam.
They also will cry and have many new laws to protect them. Which will take away my freedoms so that they can continue on their ignorant paths of oblivion.
Fuck ICANN. Fuck the UN.
The naming convention is about to be made completely worthless by the money grab ICANN did with the new generic TLDs.
We will now end up with hundreds of TLDs. Which will make, in the end, TLDs worthless.
AT&T does not care about you.
It has zero knowledge of you.
It harbors no "Malice" toward its customers.
All it wants is maximum money.
If it ends up fucking you over in the process, then so be it.
It is not Malice. Unless you just want to re define the word malice so it fits.
Okay, it might not be malice, but I'm sure we can all agree it's evil, i.e. harming others (e.g. takedown notices) to benefit oneself (e.g. stockholders).
Never made a judgment call on if it was good or not.
Just that it was not Malice.
No it is not.
Malice is done for the evil it does.
"Better return for stockholders" is done for the benefit of certain people.
This can at times cause bad shit to happen to others, but this is a side effect.
Can you explain your point? ICANN just is responsible for TLDs and Address Ranges, not Internet Policy.
Sure.
ICANN is currently fucking up everything they control.
The UN is currently fucking up everything they control.
Adding the UN to the internet equation has no fucking chance in hell of being anything less than a horrible mistake.
There are two types of people who want this.
Those that will get jobs at the UN controlling everyone's lives and stupid people with no ability to learn and lots of education.
Cool. So. when we have real data that actually shows the warming they predicted we can talk about it.
Till then you guys can just change the name. How about you call it "Global Climate Change"?
Then you can keep telling us how the climate is different and you can not get pinned down on petty things like Numbers or Trends.
Wait.
They already did that.
So you are saying that she did not ever have McDonalds coffee before?
That she had no knowledge of the fact that their coffee was considerably hotter than that sold by most other chains?
Or.
Are you saying that regardless of the fact that she made an informed decision, it still must be the rich guys fault.
When I was a kid in school we had pollution in Southern California that was so bad we could not play outside on certain days.
The EPA set out some basic, common sense regulations and fixed the problem. My children have not had to stay inside once because of pollution.
A couple of times due to massive fires though.
Once they fixed the problem they needed to stay relevant. So like every government entity they narrowed acceptable and increased regulation year after year.
Now the EPA is fucking full retard evil.
I do not know the temps in a decade from now. Neither do the people saying that they do.
I do not want massive pollution. I also realize that the fucking Sun has much more effect on the climate than we ever will.
The earth will have warmer times. The earth will have thousands of years where te ice caps are nearing Texas. It has happened many time in the past and will happen may more times with or without us.
Most people are fucking retarded when it comes to climate.
It was frivolous. People got that coffee BECAUSE it was that hot.
We got it because it lasted the commute. I knew it was really fucking hot. It was not her first time getting coffee there.
She made the decision to purposely buy that coffee having already known how hot it was. They coffee temperature did not come as a surprise to her.
If I buy something that I know is really hot and decide to buy it anyway then I spill it, it would be my fault.
Only in the last 20 - 30 years have we been so ingrained as a people that we are responsible for nothing that happens in our lives.
This is/. ROT 13 and its multiples are the only acceptable encryption types to be used here. So. ROT 0 ROT 13 ROT 26 ROT 39 and so on. Get your semi effective encryption out of here.
So the mere risk of something bad happening means you have to give up control to someone else? It's almost like personal responsibility is totally dead!
Get out from under your rock. Look around. Hot coffee is something to sue over. Everything is someone else s fault and they must pay. Warning labels designed to warn those with less brains than an earthworm. Cities that want to mandate the size of your drinks and if you can have salt on your table. Personal health insurance mandates. Unemployment forever. Participation awards. No one is expected to be responsible for their own behavior. It has been this way for many years and it is only getting worse.
Any APK could contain one and use that to do anything it likes. The only trick would be getting users to install it. Which for most users just means telling them their is a shiny bunny or sexy woman in the application.
Because I will of course pay the same amount for an English movie, with English speakers, speaking English in the movie as I would for a badly dubbed Chinese version of the movie with translated English subtitles.
Bigger hint. It measures angle and acceleration. Standing still it should read (Properly zeroed) 0.0 Gs @ 000. If the sensors are installed upside down they would be reading 1 G @180 deg.
You are correct. When Authors have zero fans and self publish with no attempt at any real marketing it would in fact be very surprising if they sell more than a handful of books. Same thing happens with a publisher though. If you are a writer and you write. You put your writing out there. You get fans. Then you self publish. Then with good writing, a decent social campaign and some real work you get get your books sold.
Sitting on you your ass waiting for money does not work with self publishing. I am so sad for them.
Well. You can be bitchy about it all you want. I think if you had any ability to comprehend what you read after you think you saw a "Conservative, Gay hating, Fucktard" post something you might have noticed that I specifically pointed out at the beginning of the post that I was not stating the right or wrong of the current situation at all. Just that "Technically" it is in fact "Equal" and therefore "Non Discriminatory".
So step down from your box of "Feel Good Rage" and listen.
Personally by the way, I think that government should have nothing to do with marriage at all. Marriage by a church should in no way be recognized by the state. If the state wants to confer certain things to those who apply to be legally bound together by the state they can of course. Though it should have nothing to do with what ceremony they want to perform in their church. There would be no problem at that point. The State could state what does and does not constitute a "Civil Union" and that should not include anything religious or have anything in it that cares about the sexual orientation of the members of the union or their sex.
Churches that want to perform gay marriages may. Those that choose not to may. And none of it would have any state recognized legal meanings.

Is willingly and knowingly being grossly negligent not evil in itself?
From my post...
Malice is done for the evil it does. See that word there. It matters.
WTF? When did I ever state that I based my morality on "I can do whatever I want as long as it is not purposely designed to do harm"? What is right and what is wrong does not correlate with what is and is not Malice.

The only people who could fuck up the internet more than ICANN is the UN.
You would not. Which is why once your zero for the constant force applied to the sensor it would be reading acceleration in the wrong direction.
So how do you think we should go about fighting the next Ice age?

What do you think root exploits often are?

I am very ok with those people getting infected.
Because I will of course pay the same amount for an English movie, with English speakers, speaking English in the movie as I would for a badly dubbed Chinese version of the movie with translated English subtitles.
