  1. You Don't Support Wine... It Supports You on Apps That Officially Support Wine · · Score: 1

    An operating system emulator is supposed to support apps, not vice-versa.

    The list should be titled, "Apps That Wine Officially Supports." And it doesn't look good to have that list be so small.

  2. Whew, I Thought I Was Crazy on Google Search Flagging Everything As Potentially Harmful · · Score: 1

    I was trying to look up some information about the Windows API, and it said MSDN was potentially harmful. I was puzzled, because usually Google isn't quite so extraordinarily intelligent.

  3. Think Of The Children! on Child Online Protection Act Appeal Rejected · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I'm glad this happened.

    Allow me to be blatantly honest. I think kids should have the right to explore their sexuality in a safe manner online. I know I did.

    Why is "adult entertainment" so exclusive anyway? You know, they could have extremely tame erotic websites to cater to kids who are interested. Probably like softcore Playboy pics or something.

  4. Re:Martian planetary defence system on Methane On Mars May Indicate Living Planet · · Score: 1

    What about when things rot in swamps and produce methane? It must pick up other stuff too I guess.

  5. Re:But think of the children on IWF Backs Down On Wiki Censorship · · Score: 1

    I guess some people put faith in the State and political ideologies, and others put faith in human beings.

  6. Re:But think of the children on IWF Backs Down On Wiki Censorship · · Score: 1

    The fact that she is a grown adult now kind of makes my last point less relevant, but I think her opinion in the past and in the present both matter, with her opinion in the present carrying more weight because it is more recent.

  7. Re:But think of the children on IWF Backs Down On Wiki Censorship · · Score: 1

    Well, that's ridiculous. A child's voice matters. The real danger to children is when people say that children shouldn't have any say in society.

  8. Re:Be serious. on IWF Backs Down On Wiki Censorship · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Actually, it's about the passage of time murdering everyone.

  9. Re:But think of the children on IWF Backs Down On Wiki Censorship · · Score: 1

    Yes, "think of the children." The opinion of the girl in question should override whatever the IWF says because, in this case, the issue is about her, not them. Shouldn't her say be the most important factor in all of this?

  10. I'm Relieved on IWF Backs Down On Wiki Censorship · · Score: 5, Insightful

    This particular situation was so ridiculous, I'm glad they realized what fools they were making of themselves. I mean, if the image had been hurting anyone in any way at all, I would have a different opinion. But as we have heard, the girl in question has stated herself that she's fine with it, was fine with it back then, and her parents were fine with it back then. Plus the fact that it's been available since the 1970s, in my opinion, means that it is actually a culturally significant work of art. Etc. Censorship is such an old issue, you would think people would realize when these policing agencies are crossing the line.

  11. "Alsing Image Compression" on Evolution of Mona Lisa Via Genetic Programming · · Score: 1

    Well, maybe. Who knows? I wonder what would happen if you allowed for catenaries... I mean, look at the top of her head.
