  1. Re:Actual Threats Need Not Apply on Larry Lessig Ends Presidential Campaign, Citing Unfair Debate Rules (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 1

    Why would choosing a party candidate be democratic? Who the fuck cares whether or not it is (besides the losers, obviously)?

  2. Re:Disagree with the language used... on Linus Rants About C Programming Semantics (iu.edu) · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    You are a slashtard who has never, and probably will never, meet Linus. He doesn't know you're alive. He doesn't give a shit if you use anything he's had a hand in. He doesn't care if your dog rapes you every full moon.

    Get over your fucking self.

  3. Re:Anyone have a link to source code? on Linus Rants About C Programming Semantics (iu.edu) · · Score: 1

    Here. There's lots of source code available.

  4. Re:Linus is right. on Linus Rants About C Programming Semantics (iu.edu) · · Score: 1

    When did acting "professionally" come to mean acting against ones nature? Why is it "professional" for Linus not to swear?

  5. Re: Not the case. on Linus Rants About C Programming Semantics (iu.edu) · · Score: 2

    Unlike you, Linus is not a drooling moron. He knows when goto is the best tool for the job. He doesn't have irrational fears like fucked-up retards such as yourself.

  6. The IRC mods don't need to enshrine their intolerance in a CoC; they could just ban abusive people.

  7. Which makes a CoC a solution looking for a problem. And whenever you have that situation, you know someone is trying to foist some bullshit on you.

  8. Re:Or. on Could Go Community's Threat of Public Shaming, Lifetime Bans Make Go a No-Go? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The problem is that CoCs are always enforced by those with the thinnest skins, because, almost by definition, they are the only ones who care.

    No, it's not. People are still people, even if they don't see each other. Calling someone an idiot when he makes a silly mistake does not magically become harassment because Internets.

  10. Incorrect headline on Linus Rants About C Programming Semantics (iu.edu) · · Score: 4, Informative

    Not that this will surprise much of anyone, but the headline is wrong. Linus did not rant about C programming semantics. He ranted about a specific C function and the style used to perform a sanity check.

  11. Re:Just asking for adult behavior! on Could Go Community's Threat of Public Shaming, Lifetime Bans Make Go a No-Go? · · Score: 2

    Anyone trying to push through a CoC into what is basically a public forum has already gone too far. The only reason for it is to punish people they don't like.

    Expecting decent behavior is not the same as enforcing hypocrisy.

    In Israel, the speed limit does vary based on vehicle type. There is a maximum that applies to cars and motorcycles, and lower limits for other types of vehicles.

    Also, there are many paranoid customers who "don't want free software because it is crap"

    The 1990s called, and they want their stupidity back.

    Seriously, man. Every serious organization from Ford Motor to the NSA and NASA have been using Linux for a decade or more. Get out of you mother's fucking basement.

    Who would have begun bombing? Obama doesn't give a shit if Iran gets The Bomb, and he sure as shit doesn't care if they use it, given their first target would be Israel.

  19. Re:Retention laws on Amazon Follows Through: Drops Apple TV, Chromecast · · Score: 1

    Um, no it doesn't. Those laws refer to records which must be kept. If Amazon chose never to record calls, they would not be compelled to produce them, nor fined under retention laws. Similarly, swillden is correct; as long as they delete based on corporate policy, they are legally OK.

  20. Re:It's a business opportunity! on Apple Usurps Oracle As the Biggest Threat To PC Security · · Score: 1

    Your car didn't have a connection to the Internet in 1982, and I'd wager it doesn't have one now. It's sad that supposedly intelligent people make such obviously ridiculous comparisons. At least apples and oranges are both fruits.

  21. That figures, as he has the critical reading skills of a typical Redneck. Comparing a shatter-proof object to body armor? What a maroon!

    My father started with COBOL on the mainframe. He taught himself Delphi (on Windows, not the newer cross-platform stuff) and then Java. It took him a while to convince anyone he actually knows it, but he's been doing it for several years now, and he enjoys it.

  23. I don't think you really understand this Internet thingy and how it works.

  24. Re:Censoring speech... on National Coalition Calls for Campus Censorship of "Offensive" Speech (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 0

    It's probably due to Arab propaganda. When killing about 0.001% of the population of Gaza in a war they started is called a genocide, then anything can be called a genocide.

  25. Re: Censoring speech... on National Coalition Calls for Campus Censorship of "Offensive" Speech (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: -1

    That's because if Americans admitted that Native Americans were vicious to each other and very violent, they would have to admit that Arabs behave the same way.
