  1. Focus on the brain on European Researchers Develop More Accurate Full-Body Polygraph · · Score: 2

    Instead broadening the area of interest, why not focus on where lies are actually formed, i.e. the brain? Put more effort in understanding the brain and on finding a way to detect changes to the brain when someone lies.

    I have personally never seen that goatse image I keep reading about. Either that, or my mind has been extremely successful at repressing those particular memories of seeing the goatse images, gruesome as they are based on the descriptions I've read.

  8. Re:History of Imported Labor on Use of Forced Labor "Systemic" In Malaysian IT Manufacturing · · Score: 1

    And this isn't about greedy companies. In all these countries the immigrant labor practices are _encouraged_ by the populist governments. It's insane.

    No, it is absolutely about greedy companies. The government has tried to restrict the practice of migrant labor, but they always face strong opposition from the greedy, capitalistics, mostly Chinese owned businesses who prefer to pay slave wages to migrant rather than pay reasonable wages to locals.

    I don't know about Malaysia, but wouldn't be surprised at all if that was the custom there.

    No, it's not the custom here. With respect to the article, the payments are made by the migrant workers to the brokers in their home state, e.g. Bangladesh, before they step foot in Malaysia.

    What do you mean "Nothing wrong"? Fornication is a sin and people should stop doing it.

    Not everyone is afraid of death to the same extent. An atheist, who believes that there is no life after death, would tend to be more afraid of death compared to a religious person who believes that after death he would go to a better place. Think about it. If you believe that you would go to a better place after you die, why would you be afraid to die? What's there to be afraid of?

    Just look at the number of wars that have been going on in Africa. People who are afraid of dying generally avoid going to war. Although Americans have also been involved in wars, they only go to war with enemies that are vastly inferior to them and they always try to keep their casualties low. America use drones because their soldiers are afraid to die, but Africans use suicide bombers because their soldiers embrace death.

  16. Re:Expert:Ebola Vaccine At Least 50 White People A on "Secret Serum" Used To Treat Americans With Ebola · · Score: 1

    The reason is that Africans are not as afraid to die as Americans. I'm not joking. Fear of death is a great motivator.

  17. Re:AIDS is good on Researchers Successfully Cut HIV DNA Out of Human Cells · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Rape is already illegal. We should implement the death penalty for rape, then we'd also eliminate those people who were infected other people with HIV by raping them. As for the hospital staff, if we just make the decision to just leave the faggots and junkies to rot, then there'd be less risk for hospital staff to catch HIV.

    Additionally, the infection rate would drop drastically if people would just stop fornicating.

    Maybe if you have been less lazy, you would have taken some time to read the Usage section in those two pages and would have noticed that while in the US English version it says, "should be avoided by careful users of English", in the British English version it says, "is regarded as incorrect in standard English".

    You keep insulting me in every post, which is a sign that you don't have valid arguments to support your views.

    You know that "this site is for science and tech news", so then why did you make a diatribe against a political leader whose view you happen to not agree with? Is it scientific to insult and call people names?

    In conclusion, I win.
