The empowerment reporting sexual offenders by students has turned very much into a witch hunt.
It does not really matter any more what male scientists have actually done. It matter what femele students feel.
And the indecent mind has a vivid fantasy. You can interpret something indecent into everything you like, report your teacher and put him into trouble. This is very much how witch hunts used to work.
What happend with Emma Sulkowicz, the lady who carried the mattress in order to get her ex-boyfriend ejected from university? She has not been charged with false accusations. And she never will, according to feminist double standards. Instead, she is celebrated as performance artist by the feministe SJWs, and she is doing porn movies. Instead, she had just unsuccessfully blackmailed her ex to return to her.
absolutely.
Now the feminazis are beginning to mess up open source with their feel-good-but-no-merit ideology.
Isn't it enough what's going on with gaming? All this 'objectification' issues... thought control... people cannot even escape the feminist nightmare of real life in a computer game any more.
I will personally fork open source projects when the project leaders will begin to submit to this bulls* feminist ideology. Because the software is supposed to work, and I don't care if some feminist feels good while accomplishing nothing.
Trinity is the KDE 3 Desptop Environment. That was the time when Linux was still better than Windows. Better then Windows XP even. KDE 3 has a fast and sleak 2D desktop, not this sluggish 3D compositing. It even runs fast on top of VNC. All the applications are well thought out, in place, and working. Not this premature rubbish of Gnome 3 and KDE 4 or 5. It is stable and mature and has everything that a productive desktop needs.
This is an insult to Third World countries! Many developing countries have cheaper, faster, and more reliable mobile networks. In Europe, 5GB mobile internet is $20 per month, prepaid. In the US, the same costs $100 at T-Mobile.
Tepco tries as hard as they can to NOT LOOK how much radition is actually leaked. This is the sole purpose of having a private company rather than the Japanese state handle this accident.
The japanese government has passed a law to prevent the release of unauthorized information, especially if that information is suitable to undermine public morale. That is particularly information about radiation. This means, the government can effectively prevent panic about the meltdown from breaking out.
Tepco is the only one who is authorized to perform measurements of radiation. And they try to avoid measuring it as much as they can. They do not measure the release of radiactive isotopes that are released into the food chain. They just measure gamma radition, three feet above ground. They do not measure the amount of plutonium that has been released into the ground water.
Instead, they apparently try to contaminate the rest of the world as much as they can. Like spilling the radioactive waste into the Pacific. That enough plutonium and caesium gets into the eating fish. So that it becomes hard to prove statistically that cancer rates are higher in the vicinity of the reactor. Compared to, say, the U.S. west coast. bon appétit
This is the wrong information. The question is, how much buring uranium and plutonium is in this water?
It appears that 100 metric tons of corium is still burning at Fukushima site, at the three or four reactor sites. From this message, it seems, the coriums has finally left the containment and burned its way into the ground water.
This is called China Syndrome, isn't it?
Recently, there have been several major feature downgrades that were camouflaged as "software updates". A lot of functionality has been removed, at the expense for questionable "innovation".
This is the case not only at Windows 8, that discurages creative work and tries to downgrade everybody to a consumer.
It can also be observed at various open-source projects, most notably the Linux desktop: like Gnome3, KDE4, Unity. They all require expensive hardware, or try to do so. They all abandon the proven desktop metaphor for this dreaded "tablet style" that nobody really wants or needs. Just in order to sell more of this fashionable hardware.
Productivity has sunken, and power consumption has risen. How many trees will have to die until we realize that software used to be better before?
This is the result, what happens if you let a business person put his hands on Linux. For him, it's just a game. He doesn't really care if he uses Windows or Linux. He won't take any advantage from retaining freedom. He just wants to be another Bill Gates, and uses Linux just as a tool to surpass his rival. Therefore, Ubuntu is on its path to be just as bad as Windows 8.
I've switched all my friends and aquaintances who had expiring Windows XP installations to Ubuntu real quickly. It sucks, too, but less then Windows 8. And it's free. I won't pay my buck to jerks who leave me standing in the rain after some years, when casual users just begin to getting aquainted to their PC.

and it does not have such low quality of living, as Cuba does. And it is not populated by white men. So, off they go...
I would consider it if it does not have systemd.

if you want a dumb tile GUI. Ubuntu was earlier, and it still is more functional. So why bother with Windows?
