  1. Re:Structure on The 50th Anniversary of Stanley Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey" · · Score: 0

    which were borrowed heavily from for the famous Alien soundtrack.

    * Alien - Release Date May 25, 1979 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien_(film))
          * 2001: A Space Odyssey - Release Date April 3, 1968 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001:_A_Space_Odyssey_(film))

    Yes, it is clear that 2001: A Space Odyssey borrowed music/soundtrack from Alien. After all, S. Kubrick had already perfected time travel (it is shown in the end of the movie).

  2. Systemd works fine on Red Hat CEO Talks About State Of Open Source (techcrunch.com) · · Score: -1

    Just because you are incompetent, doesn't make systemd bad. Read the fucking docs. Configure it properly. If it isn't working out-of-the-box on your distro, the distro/package maintainers fucked up and need to do a better job. File a bug report. Fix the configuration issue. Stop crying like a helpless fucking girl who can't find a tampon to stop her first period. Whiny little bitch.

  3. Just to clarify my earlier remark on Large Crack in East African Rift is Evidence of Continent Splitting in Two (pbs.org) · · Score: 0

    I support what you are saying. Fuck the "Brown" bullshit. It smells like shit no matter when it is used. Fuck "white" doesn't even have any meaning. What used to be "not white" (Italian, Greek, Spain-Spanish, Mediteranean, Irish, etc) is now considered "White" in all but the most egregious instances of SJW/identity politics bullshit games. "Latino", which to me means, those of Spanish/Portuguese descent (likely mixed with Native American and/or African) primarily from the Carribean, South America, and Central America is on the precipice of folding from "Not White" to "White" in most discussions (depending, of course, on the exact SEEMINGLY EVIDENT heritage involved). In other words, "Whiteness" is defined as whatever is mainstream in N. America/U.S. for all practical purposes. The whole term is fucking meaningless and those who insist on it having any meaning are completely self-absorbed full-of-shit fuckwads. Simples as that.

    Everyone who injects anything about race, skin color, sex, gender, sexual orientation, etc. into any discussion should be removed from society permanently. We are either color/race/gender blind or we aren't. Stop with the SJW/identity bullshit and just live your fucking life. If someone comes after you, come back at them harder. Person to person. Mano e Mano y Hombre e Hombre.

    Current geosynchronous satellites (which are much much higher than these will be) have a round-trip ping time (end-to-end) of no more than 200ms. FACT.

  8. Actually, Criminal Use indicates Legitimacy on Reddit No Longer Accepts Bitcoin (fortune.com) · · Score: 0

    Criminals (the kind with money to store/transfer) aren't stupid. They wouldn't be using BitCoin if it wasn't useful to transfer and store value. What do you think the "Art Trade" is? It's a way to store/transfer large sums of value "off-the-books". Think about it? Do you REALLY believe some piece of shit painting with some paint splashed on a canvas is really worth millions of dollars? No, not it isn't. It has that "Value" do to being unique and difficult, if not impossible to counterfeit. It's value comes from that. Not the "pleasure" of the artwork. The pleasure of the artwork is worth about $2.00.

    Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, Slashdot, etc, etc are not the Internet. If you don't like their policies, don't use them. Twitter, Facebook, etc. are the worst.

From the time you can see the woman, if you try to slam on the brakes, it's too late. I tried several times. Even know when she'd appear, I couldn't move my foot fast enough to (sitting in a chair at the table simulating moving my foot from "Gas" to "Brake". So, a human driver would have run her down. The sensors didn't see her until it was too late and it was her fault.

    I don't understand why anyone worries about edit wars, vandalism, etc. on YouTube. You can always look at the edit history and discussion. There are big automatic warnings on any page that doesn't cite solid sources etc. Wikipedia is the best tertiary source for "beginning" research on just about any topic. If you blindly believe as gospel whatever is currently written on a page that clearly indicates that there might be some reliability issues, then, that's on you.
