Seriously, aside from such terms as "dumping" what are the negative externalities this has on people in those countries? Terrible right? But are they willing to live with them for the positive effects the revenue brings? Just because "we" sitting here at our nice western desks feel bad for "them" doesn't give us the right to engage in a new version of the white mans burden. Maybe they know the damage they are doing and they rationally balance it against the other options(none), and are actually comfortable with their choice of breathing plastic fumes over dying. The facts of the third world, as told to me by an "illegal" Mexican immigrant, is that shit industries is better then starving, and westerners who try to have it shut down are viewed as a threat to their very survival. Why is it the vast majority of protest of the WTO is rich westerners who have the most to fear from real competition with developing nations? and the same who categorize vast swaths of people as "Illegal"?
I don't know, presenting kids with an idea so ridiculous even they will see through it could do a lot to foster critical thinking and skepticism of authority at a young age.
I can, I met a guy on the street the other day who believed most cars were following him. Crazy people who say this stuff can be very smart. It's the people who follow them that are fucking retarded.
I was talking to a hard core Mormon neighbor the other day when he started to pressure me to his views, at which point I smacked him with fact. his response was to quote Nietzsche, "Faith is not wanting to know what is true." in support of his ridiculous beliefs. The only appropriate response I could think of was to grab my crotch and proposition him, worked like a charm, now they cross the street when they see me.
People want to be stupid and believe fantasy, it helps them cope with things that are beyond them, look at the 9-11 truth movement. Anyone, even Scientists, who try to shield their beliefs or theory's from scrutiny should be instantly slapped.
Best one: Politics and the English language, should be required reading for all English classes.
These journals as blogs are neat, but I hate it when the people posting it in the present step in with a post of their own every few days, really breaks the illusion. On the whole, these are great ways to read journals I'd never pickup as a solid book. Theres another one that follows a WW1 soldier but it sucks.
Honestly thats their fault. It's just poor journalism to make an article with that much cruft. yes I just skimmed it, because I have to go to work and can't read it. If I want literary journalism I'll read HST about drugs, not IEEE about photovoltaics.
aside from the realism and the fact that actual people are involved, how come you never see anything like this for video games? In fact you see quite the opposite. Maybe, as horrible as it sounds, they should promote a light, gamer atmosphere and different approaches to missions to help them to disassociate what they are doing with murder.
it would be nice if they did that, and I'm sure the founding fathers put in some provision like that which will be ignored. Lucky they also put in a provision to fix things when they get bad: the right to shoot fuckers like this in the face, at least thats my interpretation of it.
how do you fucking lose votes? I have copy and pasted hundreds of essays and never once has the words changed. Windows or not, my high score in pacman doesn't suddenly change. This is complete BS. this blatant evil is what you get when you trust a company whose name is a combination of diabolic and bold.
Print out all material for your idea, organize it neatly, stick it in a box, tape the box up and put postage on it, now light the box on fire. Don't know if this works for Ideas but it sure works on my bills.
Yes, you certainly can find something wrong when you're looking so very hard for something to be wrong. That you wallow in pessimism, however, does not constitute an ethical argument.
Based on what you said it seems you agree that the ability to look predisposes guilt, which is an ethical rebuttal to the "nothing to hide" argument. I also agree that wallowing in pessimism doesn't constitute ethical arguments, thats like comparing apples to boots.
Everything is meaningless to stars and rocks, people on the other hand have feelings. And most feel they don't like being judged, so protecting my right to not be judged is something I care about. It seems we agree on everything, so why the hostile tone?
We, as in western nations? I'm pretty sure that India or China have no qualms with him losing a few lives. He launch's from islands outside the US, I think he could nation shop if he felt the need.
I guess thats why I got modded flaimbait, Once everyone knew what a deviant I am they were overcome with moral outrage! I guess most people on/. really have nothing to hide. Makes sense really.
Are you fucking serious? This is a joke, It has to be, no one could be so stupid and still type.
I have lots to hide, everyone does, especially when using a PC. How about whacking it to pron? How about P2P piracy, how about copying from wikipedia for an essay? How about uploading stupid comments as an AC?
You're a fucking idiot. If you critique every thing someone does you will find things they need to hide. You've never been in a intense personal relationship. Trust me you spend enough time observing someone very close, and you can find lots of flaws and problems. The last thing anyone needs is strangers doing it.
This shit is illegal for that very reason you fucking tard. This guy obviously get his kicks in violating peoples personal space. Same reason for the telescreen in 1984. It wasn't to catch crime, it was to impose themselves on your very being, to violate any individual person hood you can expect. voyeurs are soft rapists who get off on knowing what you don't want them to, the same mindset goes for those who want more CCTV, fucking disgusting.
It's idiots like you who let people whittle away at rights. "It's not about gun control it's about keeping weapons off the streets," "It's not about censorship its about prosecuting someone for fraud in a new way." I've changed my mind. this is a good thing, some people like you are too stupid to talk on the internet.
I saw your mom at the bar last night, She needed some crack money so I whored her out in the end stall for $10 a pop. She said your dick was small too BTW.
Exactly, All laws to help ease harm by curtailing what can be said, no matter how well intentioned, are censorship. Which is a dick in the mouth of the freedom of speech and our basic rights. If this woman hurt someone there is probably a means to prosecute her.
Censorship is making it so people are punished for speaking. If you pass a law saying I can't insult Jews then that is censorship. if you stretch laws to say I can't goad people online that is censorship. How about we pass laws punishing people for the effects their words have and not their saying them.
The thing about any censorship laws, especially on obscenity, is that it is up to individuals to decide what gets censored. Tub girl is obscene and "shouldn't" be shown on kids shows, but when you make laws saying you "can't" it gets into a tricky spot.
There are individuals who would say it is obscene to see white women kissing black men, and at one point in time they may have had a large enough majority to make it law if they had the legal means to invalidate the right of free speech. If you have any infringement on the right to free speech based on what is right or wrong, or inflammatory, you risk completly destroying that right and making it just a privilege.
This case has a girl that was harmed in a new way that no law exists to properly prosecute. It shows the need for new laws, not the destruction of old rights. We have protection to these rights because of these kinds of actions, If it is OK to throw out rights based on criminal offenses then it's possible to throw them out on others.
Seeing as this is California, which is still, for some reason, part of the united states, and newspapers usually run temps in the local measure, It would be safe to assume it is F.
Mostly it has to do with date that shows the gas exhibited circadian rhythm, and the presence of ferris metals that should not be there. Only one test has yet showed the oxidizer so no actual chance of certainty on the life question yet. If they do prove the oxidizer, would that rule out all life on mars? or only recent and continuous life?
From that same article "Cause of the result, and still widely held: A chemical practical joker is in the soil, some sort of oxidant that fooled the LR experiment."
They have still not found organics. But they have found an oxidizer, be it in only one test. I can't say about the magnetic metals from any articles, but I have run magnets on the beach and picked up lots of iron, and I can think of no more rust prone place.

I know all about this, as does anyone who eats breakfast at Macdonald's. This is apparently how they make their coffee.
