>Kindly familiarize yourself with the full meaning of the word
Ok:
Narcissism is a term that originated with Narcissus in Greek mythology who fell in love with his own image reflected in a pool of water. Currently it is used to describe the pursuit of gratification from vanity, or egotistic admiration of one's own physical or mental attributes, that derive from arrogant pride.

Years ago there would have been nothing but comments full of ideas for amazing things you accomplish using a device like this.
Now it seems like the site is populated almost entirely by pubescent teenagers acting macho and boasting how they'd beat someone up and break their glasses.
Of the 304 open-access journals targeted by the sting, 60% published the paper. I think this mainly just shows that the average quality of open-access journals may always be low, but that's not surprising since anyone in the world can set up an "open access journal".
Is this information really meaningful without a similar test on the paid journals?

Who would have thought there would be consequences to spamming every article with whining and bitching?
I love the beta, it lets me hide all of your whining, bitchy comments about beta.
Of course it's hard.
If you ask 300 million people what American values are you're going to get 300 million different answers.
Wow, just $250 and only a 5% chance my device will break?
That's sooooo much better than just covering it with one cent's worth of tape.

This is the second version, and they've sold thousands of units. I have one.
Cue the neanderthal luddites threatening to beat people up.
>Besides shotgunning a couple of over-generalized links to Google searches (thorough research there!),
Thank you.
>you might have noticed the part about selfishness, which does not perforce involve mirrors.
No, but the part about the very origin of the word 'narcissism' does.
Why don't you read up on logical fallacies, especially the one called 'moving the goalposts'.
Do you punch every person you see with a camera?
No? Hypocrite.
So...it means exactly what I said in my post. What was the point you thought you were making?
>the kind of narcissist that would use Glass
This doesn't even make any sense, unless you are implying that they'd be staring at themselves in the mirror all the time.
When did Slashdot become so full of luddites?

>The system would allow people to pay bills anonymously over the Internet through an electronic transfer of funds â" just like Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is not anonymous. There is a very clear, public trail linking your wallet to your purchases.

If you don't know the difference between "breaks" and "brakes", will you really understand the answers to your questions?
>You would prefer that defendants be defenseless?
What are you talking about? There is no legal system that would allow the defendant to overturn anything. That is the judge's job.
I was just making fun of the typo in the summary.
"a sex offender overturned the decision of a hearing officer"
I'm not sure it's a good idea to let the defendant be in charge of the judicial process.
>Oh so if it makes millions of dollars he's suddenly qualified to tell everyone else how they should vote on an issue such as this.
You were the one who brought his job into this.
Well, if you can't disagree with your foes who CAN you disagree with?
>Well, I don't write a fucking successful comic strip that has made me millions of dollars for a living, that's for sure.
FTFY
Yeah, it's not like we have a government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
What does this mean?

At least he didn't write "defiantly" like I see pretty often.
