Yes there is. 'Clickbait fallacy' is a dog whistle phrase in the same vein as 'Social Justice Warrior' or 'political correctness'. It signifies that the poster is a reactionary white manchild who thinks the person harrassed by the 'doxing' "had it coming".
If the cost of programming comes down, there will be less incentive to do it
Really? There are plenty of programmers out there that do it because they want to, even for free.
The existence of Free and Open Source Software alone proves that as long as the material needs in Maslow's hierarchy are provided for, people will program because it satisfies a non-material need.
I'm not going to install a hacked-to-shit Debian install to coddle the typo of morons Shuttleworth seems to think to be a demographic worth mining, no.
No, sorry, I don't like to relate to and empathize with idiots. If that makes me an elitist, so be it. It doesn't take away anything from the fact that I am not going to take anecdotes about Ubuntu fuckups as fact, unlike you. The facts of who is rational here are evident.
You're an idiot if you put your manual network config in rc.local on an Ubuntu system. If that is your story, I have no problems believing the newbies in your vicinity thought it was difficult.
And since I distinctly remember running Debian+Gnome+NetworkManager in that same timeframe with no problems whatsoever using a static config, I think your problems were more of a PEBCAK nature.
Hey kiddo, hate to burst your bubble, but Colbert was never on your side. I'll spell it out for you: he does a parody of a White Conservative Man.
And if this kind of rampant stupidity is a sample of the kind of comments that video was expected to attract, disabling comments seems eminently reasonable to me.
And because as a civilisation we don't think "We didn't know" is a defense against crimes committed in the pursuit of your end goal. We used to hang people for that.
Perhaps you dislike his writing because liking writing presupposes an amount of literacy you obviously lack. Charlie specifically praises Hamilton in the linked blog post.
Now go back to your homework and stop bothering the adults.
If, however, you overemphasise the relatability to the point of never challenging the reader's comfort zone, then you are just writing cheap escapism. If Science Fiction isn't about introducing new concepts, what is it about then? That was Charlie's point.
The Inquisition was at its most powerful during the late Middle Ages, not the Dark Ages.
The primary target of the Inquisition was to fight heresy. In Spain that was considered being Jewish or Muslim, in NWE that was mostly the official definition of wilfully contradicting Church dogma. As it so happens, in the two most famous cases a scientist went up against the Church, they got hit with a trial not for the scientific content of their work, but for insulting the Pope (Galileo) and preaching a schismatic faith (Bruno).
Really, the Church has enough to answer for if you stick to the facts. No need to make shit up. Christianity's most virulent anti-science attitudes arose in the Protestant denominations, and are mostly a product of the 18the Century and later, and in the modern day mostly a US aberration.
The Dark Ages was caused, in large part, but the rise in political influence of the Roman Catholic Church
This is just flat-out wrong. The rise of the Church correlates strongly with the end of the Dark Ages. Unless you want to use the old definition of 'Dark Ages' derived from Petrarch as anything between 500 and 1500.
So you specifically installed it. Unless you go about your business installing tasks without knowing what's in them.
And you couldn't be bothered to RTFM. Instead you rant on Slashdot. And when called upon it, you get defensive. You are not an admin, you're a script kiddie living in Mommy and Daddy's basement.
And the rightist disregard for the rule of law and presumption of innocence when the subject in question is of a group they disapprove of is disgusting. We used to hang people for that. Unfortunately Nuremberg is fading in our institutional memories.
Let's snip some output, and then we see: Priority: optional
So, it only installs by default if you select tasks. What sane admin complains about a package that they selected themselves? And besides, it is only an apt-get --purge remove away.
For all your bragging that you have used Linux for so long, you sure make the impression of a script kiddie who thinks he's l33t for having successfully installed Ubuntu. Assuming you speak the truth, all it proves is that it took you ages to improve to merely incompetent.
The way to manage a Debian system is to set up a boot server with a netinst image, ideally with some preseeded packages and config, and then pull in the rest of the packages and config using a management system like cfengine or puppet. Either way, if you're an experienced Debian admin, you should know about the existence of resolvconf, and when it is useful or not. Installing it on a server and then complaining about it managing your resolv.conf file makes you a luser.
In fact, we will progress to artificial life and artificial intelligence in erratic steps - some large, some small - some hard, some easy.
Yep, got your pseudo-religious bullshit right there. The real Rapture of the Nerds
I know it is popular these days in our little nerd bubble to hate on positive portrayals of girls, but when the highest-grossing film of 2013 gets called poorly-performing, I think it is time you turn in your geek card and search for a forum more appropriate to your intelligence.
Yep.

<Looks at OP UID> Oh look, it's epyT-R. QED.
Riggght. One succesful black scientist means race is not an issue.
Somehow I think the irony of your own statement will be lost on you.

If you consider ip to be the new hotness, then you are dating yourself as just another *buntu script kiddie.
Oh my. People this stupid really exist.

Sod it, forgot to wrap that 'you' in an element.
I take back the liar allegation. You are just a subliterate moron.
And still proving TFA so, so, very right.
When you start with outright lying about what was said or not, you do a good job of proving TFA right.
Because the buck has to stop somewhere.
And because as a civilisation we don't think "We didn't know" is a defense against crimes committed in the pursuit of your end goal. We used to hang people for that.
It is you that is making a fundamental mistake. Adding value is wat technology is for, technology is not an end in it self.
We, meaning IT, are here to automate processes. By automating business processes, we make more efficient business possible, thus adding value.
Jennifer Lopez' "Let's Get Loud" somehow always sounded like "Netscape Now!" to me.

Apparently. I'm tired, so I'm not getting it, but I plead Poe's Law.
