You've misinterpreted me. He should state his opinion on rape only when it is asked of him. He is unlikely to ever be asked this. So, I implicitly told him never to state his opinion on rape again. The reason for this is that his opinion is not only reprehensible (telling a woman who says she has been raped what he thinks rape is and that she has not been raped) but does not even have a slight philosophical backing, thought he tries to present it as having such with what appear to him to be fancy phrases like "objective standpoint".
He's a misogynist and a philistine, but by harsh internet rebuke he may be set on the path to change. It's the start of how I changed; I was once like him.
Ok so Anonymous goes after BART for shutting down a few privately owned cell phone repeaters. But does nothing against China and all of the Free Speech bs that they pull?
This implies that they are American; normal American citizens stand to gain no political victories by attacking China. By attacking the US government, however, they can at least have the warm feeling of shitting on the people who are shitting on them.
I wasn't quite clear enough, but that's exactly my point. Obama (and the Democratic congress) has been indistinguishable from Bush and the Republican congress. People vote for either of the electable choices and get the same result; the system is completely broken. It shocks me that anyone suggests participating in American electoral politics as a way of making a dent in anything.
I would gladly be a C programmer if I could've found a job willing to hire me to do it out of college. The only places that would hire anyone with a BS in CS were horrible PHP shops, so that's what I learned how to do. It's basically the same story for every I went to college with. If industry can't find any experienced C programmers, it's their own fault because they don't take the steps necessary to create them.
If the claims against the IMF head were a CIA operation, surely the US prosecutor would've actually done his fucking job and brought charges. He has a history of this sort of behavior. He's actually being protected by the US government, not attacked.
It's frustrating. I work with jQuery/JavaScript daily.
Same here. I don't understand why people think that JS is so bad that it's actually better to write in another language and have the JS automatically generated. From C to Assembler the choice is obvious, but JS is already not terribly difficult to use, especially with the libraries available today.
so a load of people latch onto autism as a reason against vaccination, but its not the only concern. A lot of people are more concerned about lower-level negative immune system responses, such as increased allergy rates.
I'm so concerned about allergies that I'm willing to risk the death or serious illness of my child and many of the vulnerable children around him; I'm a fuckshit!!
You sound like a lunatic. I have no idea what kind of fucked-up nonsense your schools are "indoctrinating" kids with, but that sure as fuck didn't happen when I grew up.
It's typical Slashdot: weirdo loser creeps out the women around him and makes up all sorts of crazy conspiracies for why he can't get the physical and emotional fulfillment he craves. Sometimes they even go so far as to say women are inferior and use the oppression of the woman as evidence of her inferiority. It's quite crass.
I can't identify well enough with his plight to explain because I'm charming, intelligent, and good looking, but I do know well enough to pity these nerds. Simone De Beauvoir discusses this type of man a bit in The Second Sex; it's a really great book and everyone should read it.
There won't be any blowback because Pakistan is a desperately poor country and people are generally without electricity to begin with, so rules about the internet aren't much concern.
Did you identify a change in the message beyond the mere words, or was it just a sloppy transcription? Perhaps they published a version of the speech he wrote down beforehand, which would of course not be identical to something spoken over 17 minutes by anyone who knows well enough to not stare at the paper for the duration of the delivery.
I imagine a test designed by Microsoft to make IE look good might have also been designed to hit Firefox's weak points. Maybe it's slow at that demo, but it works great for my daily browsing. What else should I care about as far as speed goes?
It's cell phones all over again. Except 100 times the cost.
And none of the additional utility that a cell phone provides over a landline. Electric cars are a bandaid to the problem of automobiles. Give us cities where people can walk, bike, and use an effective bus system and people will actually be willing to give them a shot. New York and San Francisco are expensive to live in for a reason...

While rape is probably too strong a word to use here from an objective standpoint,
Why's that? You don't know otherwise you would've stated it. Go back to your video games and only give your opinion on rape when asked, nerd.
I am not really a professional coder. I don't even work in computer-science related jobs.
Same here; I'm a web developer.
Yo dog, I heard you like internet censorship so I censored your internet censor's internet.

Joke's on them since Facebook still doesn't support SSL!

Hell yes an hour. At least!
I'd expect no less from you, Stenchwarrior.

if you want to change society, you do live in a democracy and are supposed to change it by voting.
Gotcha.
*votes for Obama*
*stands by helplessly as wages fall while the government demonstrates its only competence to be launching cruise missiles*

In the "irrelevant" pile since nobody uses them outside the university.

Because Scheme is already a Lisp.

Plenty of them, well into their adult life

If you had read it, you would understand that his post is the second step in applying for GNAA membership.
Then vote for the other party next time; watch them run in terror as you elect their identical twin
