I can't figure out why this is news in any way. First off, TFA suggests that they are minors. So just to set the stage, we're essentially talking about a teenage breakup here. Not a great start. Next, we have a girl who decided it would be fun to post images of her boyfriend all over the Internet. Wow, that's a new one! I've never heard of anything like this before! And to top it all off, the double standard here is absurd. As another poster already mentioned, if the shoe was on the other foot, no one would think it's funny or cute in any way. So Slashdot has devolved into a gossip tabloid now? Wonderful.
Now I see why the "News for nerds. Stuff that matters." tag was removed from the top of the site.
I seem to get closer each day to removing/. from my rss feed. Everything that is actual tech news, I tend to have already heard from the source, also in my rss feed (usually from Engadget, Anandtech, or rarely, Daily Tech).
Eventually we should discover whether there is a limit as/. approaches lame that prevents actual unsubscription, or if it will disappear. Near enough that limit, I suppose we are just glossing over the posts without even skimming the summaries?
Yeah, that's so unfair. Democrats would NEVER do something like that, even though they staff all the major newspapers and broadcast networks, and always have. No, Democrats are always honest, neutral and objective, and have never unfairly criticized a sitting president who's politics they just happen to disagree with.
Why is it in almost every military related article posted here, it inevitably turns political?
Because the military is being used for political ends that have nothing to do with the safety of this country, and everything to do with the safety of defense contractor profits.
When they stop playing politics with defense, I'll stop complaining about it.
"War is not violence and killing, pure and simple; war is controlled violence, for a purpose. The purpose of war is to support your government's decisions by force. The purpose is never to kill the enemy just to be killing him but to make him do what you want him to do. Not killing... but controlled and purposeful violence." - R.A. Heinlein
I used mldonkey for a while, until we got a nastygram from our ISP (our only viable source of broadband), who got a nastygram from Universal Studios regarding our violation of the DMCA by sharing Schindler's List. So now we don't use p2p anymore for feer of losing our service =\

Actually entitlements are about twice the defense budgets and entirely unsustainable.

War IS politics.
I just died a little inside...
Dude, we're old now.

If they aren't already taken, I'm going to try and get "greater than one click shopping" and "e-commerce"
