    Lol. Another shining example of European liberal guilt and self-hatred.

    "There are only terrorists because WE created them" If it hadn't been for us evil white Europeans, the world would be all unicorns and daisies. "We're the ones to blame for these bombings, not the people committing them!" Fucking pathetic. Sometimes I think modern Europeans actually WANT to be bombed. They sure as shit don't seem even remotely concerned about actually saving their culture or people.

    Jeebus, I'm glad my grandfather isn't alive to see this sad shit. No way would he have bothered storming Normandy if he had know Europeans were going to commit suicide only a few generations later--inviting in their own demise out of some sad sense of white liberal guilt.

    "They told me to fuck off must faster than usual," said one customer.

    Yeah, fighting terrorism is a waste of time. Best to just give up and not try, huh?

    This is the attitude of modern Europe. This is what has become of western culture. "It's too hard to fight them. Fuck it, let's just give up and invite them in."

    Hush, you fool! You'll be called a racist if you say that out loud.

    Yeah, because when Europe had border controls, there was no terrorism. Period.

    Yes, because putting a lock on your door and having a criminal break in your house anyway is EXACTLY the same as leaving your door wide open with a big sign in your front yard reading "Free cash and valuables inside!"

    I mean, are you seriously arguing that because an odd terrorist might get in anyway, that we should just say "fuck it" and open the borders up to invite them in? Because, if that's what you're saying, I want you to call your mother up and tell her that she raised a dumb fuckwad.

    Be sure not to call them Muslim terrorists. That would be racist.

  10. Re:Give it back? on Scientists Propose Biodiversity Lab To Redeem Guantanamo Prison Camp · · Score: 2

    We don't give it back for the same reason that we've implemented most of our Cuban policies over the last 50 years: because a bunch of old Batista cronies in Miami are still pissed that Fidel Castro took their corrupt oligarchy away.

    The first time I find myself having to check the box of a console game to see if my console meets the system requirements is the day I just go back to PC gaming for good. If I have to deal with all the hassles of PC gaming, I may as well get all the benefits too.

    There are still people who think the "rape" charge against Julian Assange is completely unrelated to his work with Wikileaks, and that the UK would spend millions for surveillance on any ole' Joe facing questioning in Sweden. People are fucking stupid.

    It's not going to be such a optimal choice if it gets to the point where there are large masses of people who are hungry and desperate, and you're the guy living in the mansion with tons of food. Better hire a merc army for security (and hope they don't turn on you and take everything for themselves).

    Don't worry. A week after it's released, there will be 20 forks of it with bitter squabbling over which is best.

  19. Ironically, I was open to the idea of upgrading until I saw how bizarrely insistent MS was about the upgrade. When I began to hear stories of stealth upgrades, I ran, not walked, to the "GWX Control Panel" app and installed it. Anything that MS is this crazy insistent about has to be up to something very, very bad behind the scenes.
