  1. If you push that meme hard enough, the stupid might even believe it.

  2. Not "2 Sailors 1 Cup?"

  3. Re:Asteroid was not an accident! on The Asteroid That Wiped Out Dinosaurs Plunged Earth Into Catastrophic Winter (bbc.com) · · Score: 2

    Why bother with weaponized asteroids if you're going to wait that long?

    Time dilation.

  4. Precisely WHEN did integrity die?

    When did it exist? Simple answers only, please.

    The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear "disaster" killed Zero people directly.

    Sure... if we pretend to ignore the fact that rad-detectors were being taken offline while that shit circled the globe. You're either a paid shill or a naive, gullible idiot but either way, you can take your "official narrative," fold it so it's all corners and shove it up your ass.

  9. Bad move. on Game Studio CCP Scales Back Virtual Reality Development (bbc.com) · · Score: 1
    Bad move: VR may not currently have the adoption rate that folks like this were hoping for but anyone* who's tried it should be able to see that it's the future.

    *I didn't get nauseous until I hit a wall in a racing game and my brain expected sudden deceleration but there was none...

  10. Sounds like the perfect time... on Google Docs Is Randomly Flagging Files for Violating Its Terms of Service (vice.com) · · Score: 5, Funny

    Sounds like the perfect time to finally ditch WordPerfect and use a modern, cloud-based word processor.

  11. Re: This is exactly why you don't hire women... on Three Women Suing Microsoft for Bias Want To Add 8,630 Peers (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    So you wouldn't mind if a female boss kept passing you over, constantly making jokes about how much of a sissy you are?

    Can't say; I've only had female bosses who touched me every time they spoke to me, or openly stared at my crotch... but call me a sissy? No.. nor do I know how I would handle that; it sounds so... degrading (/sarc).

    They will distort reality to entitle themselves to whatever the fuck they want

    And we let them. What; never been in a relationship?!

    I don't see how someone can receive a fair trial if the the mechanism used to collect evidence is secret

    Therein lies the fucking point.

    You're claiming TOSLINK has worse jitter than HDMI??! :)

    TOSLINK supports 24/192; I don't know where you heard otherwise.

    This. And it's one of several reasons why I'm so psyched that Alpine is finally equipping their higher-end headunits with TOSLINK output.

    TOSLINK is only dead to those who aren't the ones to ask.

  18. Re:Is the Optical Cable Dying? on Is the Optical Cable Dying? (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Better tech?? HDMI introduces jitter; if you're after serious sound, you still use TOSLINK - which Alpine is finally offering in their latest mobile audio equipment.

    We do need change but it shouldn't come with a sharp blade.

    No, definitely not; the only way we're going to bring about change is with compassionate, nonviolent patience... fortunately, there are free speech zones within which we can apply these strategies...
