Don't forget to include an idea with your insults next time. I mean, two insults, and not a single idea, no analysis, not even an attempt to identify what you're complaining about.
I have no complaints. I could not deign to imagine a more vulnerable adversary.
For example, you use the word "hateful." What was it you thought I was "hating?"
For example, and I don't want to appear overly sensitive, but it appears as if you were being hateful towards me... and I know, that is definitively me-centric.
I accused you of engaging in moral relativism in an inappropriate context. How is that "hateful?" Don't be afraid to use a dictionary to check what the words mean.
The dictionary....ahhh-oohhh... Is that allowed? Damn my trailer park understanding of these arbitrary rules.
You don't even show know what relativism means; you made no attempt to support your statement, or disagree with my analysis.
Damn your cleverness, son of William Wallace!
Maybe you just "hate" that the girl is no one called you on a bullshit attempt to claim that a desert being hot is the same type of thing as an outbreak of disease?
World Cup Soccer in Qatar in the midst of the 45 degree celsius (112 f) summer, the Olympics in the midst of the Russian kleptocracy, and now this mess...
Human greed and self-interest at the expense of pragmatic decision-making. Wouldn't it be something if it were a new story.
it should never be possible for a car to automatically crash into a large stationary object
tesla fucked up
Unlikely. Listen to the alibi instantly created by the driver.
A worker from the business he was visiting greeted him outside after which he went inside the establishment. Roughly five minutes later, he came out to find his Model S slammed into the trailer in front of it.
I have a witness who came out to greet me and saw the car so not rear ending the trailer in front of me.
I recall an heated conversation about the fate of hide-your-money banking when the Swiss banks were opened up, after centuries of hoarding the secretive wealth of the rich and infamous.
Unbeknownst to the majority of earners, there is a class of well-moneyed people who earn so much their biggest concern is in diversity of risk.
It turns out there were a number of nations willing to house secretive banking communities. Most of them are secretly happy about the Fonseca breach.
Not really. The point of having an "offshore account" is to keep money somewhere financially better than one's own country, primarily to avoid taxes.
Quite right, but they are also used as safe havens for folks with more than one pile of money needing a stash haven.
Let's say you are Head of State (or even a VIP) in a nation where it's possible you'll be deposed one day. Keeping all your wealth in a domestic account, or in accounts abroad that can be frozen, doesn't seem like the safest plan for your retirement. Welcome to the allegedly secret, offshore banking industry!
I'd imagine that, while the US is among the relatively few capable of miniaturizing a laser powerful enough to actually cause aircraft damage on a fighter plane...
We have to assume once the technology genie is out of the lamp, the weaponization of lasers would proliferate.
If the past is any sort of predictor of the future, this will not slow our development one bit, but it's still worth noting.
Seriously, we need some way to send these people back to 5th grade. It's astonishing. Maybe 3rd grade. Force them to take classes until they at least graduate the 8th grade. Keep them out of society as long as it takes for them to grasp 8th grade-level reading, writing, and maths. I really don't think it's too much to ask.
Wow. You people never stop. Now, you're blindsiding Trump's voters.
Let's keep it in perspective, shall we? Many of the folks behind bars in the US are young, nonviolent offenders who stand a reasonable chance of rehabilitation.
Contact visits with family and loved ones are a privilege, and give the inmates something to look forward to and stay out of trouble for.
If prisoners wind up with daily lives so poor nothing that can be taken away from them, who's going to want to take care of them?
It's always the 2% that ruins it for the rest of us.
The rabble rallied in the cafeteria because a kitchen server spread a rumor the milk was only 2% milk and 98% water and adulterants. Now we get only skim.
FTA: While socialist in theory, Gross says the idea has support among more conservatives than liberals and is the rage in Silicon Valley – how else will a shrinking workforce pay for the latest gadget?
The article is only suggesting $10,000 as a basic yearly income, so it's not like the living will be large without some income augmentation.
It will, as a plus, create a bit of inflation that would actually reward folks who save money.
i am sure there are plenty of nations that wouldn't "give a shit" to test on adult humans in said research labs too.
It's inevitable, and it probably won't be just the nations you would suspect.
There will be mistakes and abuses, as with all human endeavors; especially if this proceeds before we completely understand the consequences of altering this strand for that advantage.

Lets see, desert heat, government corruption, and Zika virus. Which of these can be spread by returning tourists?
Relativism fail.
Your perception is a subjective value worthy of some consideration...

no, you're just being hateful.

Between Netflix and Adblocker, your brain is maybe in need of a wash.
On his mother's side, which makes him a MexiCan.
Outside of pumping water to heights or using conventtional battery storage, there are NEW IDEAS emerging all the time.
If they get the Preakness correct, there will be so many bets on their prediction that the payoff will drop precipitously.
Same preface as the Exxon/Mobil employee handbook.

Interesting stuff, and since we get a lot of our tech from gargantuan military budgets, it will be even more interesting to see what trickles down.
As opposed to weapons of destruction, lasers plausibly hold more promise disrupting communications in battle.
May the wrong lizard not win.
Great lizard reference!

Sure, it's boring, but I can, like, look into a second job working on line for $55 an hour!
Yes, IAL.
Of course. The malevolently clever way you presented the information gave it away... putting the quotation after your comment on it.
Clearly, a barrister's parlor trick.
The rabble rallied in the cafeteria because a kitchen server spread a rumor the milk was only 2% milk and 98% water and adulterants. Now we get only skim.
We've reached a disappointing time in history when NASA's new launch is a "Searchable Database".
Many deserved people get worker's comp and disability, but there is a respectable fraction of the populace willing to prevaricate to obtain benefits.
This just levels the playing field.
Tell you what: capitalize Americans next time you post, or we'll come over there and depose your tyrant head of state.
