You do have to watch Transformers - The Movie, however. It's the only good one and it came out 30 years ago.
It's got an incredible voice cast, from an era when no established actor would touch an animated film with a 10 foot clown pole. Not only do you get the iconic Peter Cullen and Frank Welker, you also get the likes of Casey Kasem, Eric Idle, Judd Nelson, Leonard Nimoy, and Robert Stack. You even get Scatman Crothers and one of the final performances from Orson Welles.
Then you've got the sound track that was so amazing the entire movie was story boarded to it. You even get a song from Weird Al Yankovic.
People who understand the significance of what he created? People who think he may still be out there? People who think it's a pseudonym for a government group, alien invasion team, barbershop quarter?
This. Assuming the name wasn't specifically designed to disguise sex, it's clearly a male. Of course, many believe Satoshi is actually a group of people.
You think a 20% increase in ride times could be accomplished with simultaneous carbon emission (proportional to fuel consumption) reduction? That would probably mean a massive efficiency jump in vehicle fuel efficiency. We'd hear more about that if that were the case.
No they just take all the downhill routes instead of the uphill routes.
We have evidence of many managers at Google doing that shit, and keeping blacklists. Everything officially coming from an executive on this matter is going to be filtered about a dozen times though HR, legal, PR, etc. You can't trust what they say. You can only trust what they do.
They said they value open discussion even when people disagree. Then we saw that they fired the guy. They said they want to reach out to people with differing opinions in order to reach understanding. Then we learned managers keep blacklists. They said they'd have a town hall for open discourse. Then we saw it was a sham. They said they received complaints that people didn't feel safe. Do we believe that? Do you also believe the smaller meetings will be legitimate in any way?
Conservatives are pariahs. You have to be a sociopath to be conservative. They want nothing but conformity, which contributes nothing to any society outside the fascists and nazis. Conservatism must die if humans want to evolve past the talking chimp.
Wait, so conservatives want conformity, yet you want all people to conform to not being conservatives? Only a Sith deals in absolutes?
They plan on outing and executing them in the "smaller forums".
Instead of the company-wide format, Google will now hold several smaller forums "to gather and engage with Googlers, where people can feel comfortable to speak freely," Pichai wrote.
The goal here is to avoid having one big meeting where dissent can erupt. A bunch of smaller meetings can be more controlled, more staged, and more scripted. if one of them goes south, it won't get as much attention, Google can downplay it as a bad example, play it off as being an isolated incident, etc. while pushing the narrative and example of one of the more scripted / well-behaved sessions. They can use the dissent from any of the smaller forums to form a reactionary, damage control game plan for future sessions as well. Divide and conquer, choose your battles, fake it until you make it, etc.
Sorry, the majority of the big venues are hooked on Ticketmaster as their exclusive online ticketing provider. You can get tickets from the box office or from Ticketmaster. Good luck either way. The box office often has 0 tickets to sell, or has to pull from the same pool as Ticketmaster live, once sales are opened (at which point Ticketmaster has already shuffled them all off to ticketsnow.com for scalping).
Ticketmaster gets tickets to sell, and before they go on sale (or the very instant they do), they ship nearly all (or all) of them off to ticketsnow.com to sell at inflated (more so) prices.
If for any reason tickets don't sell out on ticketsnow.com , Ticketmaster moves some tickets back to ticketmaster.com and announces a new block of tickets as being available to drum up excitement and to get people to try to buy them on ticketmaster.com . When they get there, they'll find out that the situation has repeated itself. Ticketmaster is "sold out" yet there are tickets on a 3rd party ticket selling site, ticketsnow.com - better act fast!
This is why Ticketmaster has the option to check a box to be notified if more tickets become available. How can more tickets become available when you're already sold out? Answer: Because Ticketmaster is lying, cheating scum.
Why? He's some faggoty edgelord snowflake crying because he can't spam the company boards with his butthurt manifesto.
But companies should be able to discriminate against gays and transwomen, am I right guys?
I like how you use "faggoty" as a slur and then rail against other imagined people who want to discriminate against gays and transsexuals. It really drives home how stupid you are / how awful a troll you are.
To win he will have to prove more than one of a few things.
- There is discrimination (presumably against men) resulting from Google's policies, or affirmative action which is illegal in California, and thus he is a whistleblower.
Wrong. He only has to show that he made the claims in good faith. An unsubstantiated claim grants immunity from retaliation for making the claim. The only exception is when you can show that the person made the claim in bad faith (being a liar vs. being incorrect).
I'm not even going to read the rest of your post because you're misinformed and incorrect from the start.
In the entire country, discriminatory practices in hiring, placement, advancement, and overall treatment are illegal if they discriminate with regards to protected classes such as race, religion, and sex.
At-will in a state where firing him for political viewpoints is illegal, and in a country where his essay counts as whistleblowing (he's alleging Google engages in illegal practices) and where retaliatory action against whistleblowers is illegal. Google can't fire this guy after the incident / dispute, nor can they reassign him to nothingness, hold him back in his career, etc.
But with the race to find the best at the heart of so much media we consume today, such articles can only be trusted if they come from an established outlet with legitimacy, the same institutions that are slow and struggle to add marginalized people to their ranks.
Translation: You can only trust a "best of" list if it comes from a publisher that you can trust and that is slow and struggles to hire marginalized people?
What the fuck? What is this shit? This is pure, meaningless nonsense!

As far as we know, it's impossible for true randomness to exist. Our Universe runs on causality. There are things we don't yet fully understand, and things that appear to operate in an unpredictable way, but there's no actual evidence that they do so in violation of causality, no evidence of the Universe being a simulation, no evidence of there being infinitely many Universes, etc.
If something has a cause, then it can be predicted and patterns can be identified. It is not random.
Slashdot Mirror
(He actually hates this movie and is vocal about it.)
And? Let that trash city fail.
It's means it is.
It's been nice proving you wrong!

Yup. He's posturing for a big, nasty lawsuit. I hope it gets tons and tons of media attention.
Great film. Daniel Tosh's favorite, in fact.

Then let the inner city kids get kicked off the bus and handed off to the cops, like any other person.
This is a problem that solves itself once you drop the "no child left behind" madness.

Didn't we just have a (absolutely stupid) story about how password complexity rules are bad?
Which is it?
(Hint: Password complexity rules are a good way to prevent the dumbest of passwords from being used.)
make conservatives feel like pariahs

X399 = AMD
X299 = Intel
BenJeremy got it wrong on the first mention (he called AMD's chipset X299), but he got it right at the end.
Games? You want the Ryzen 1700 or the upcoming i7 8700k from Intel (we'll get actual info on the 21st).
