Sure, I never hid the fact that I have ptsd and mdd. Nothing to be ashamed of. But transsexualism is not a mental disorder - believing it is, on the other hand, is delusional, which IS a mental disorder.
You're so full of shit it's coming out your mouth. UBI is not about me achieving my personal goals, asshole (even though to you everything must be for personal gain, because you can't picture an act that isn't even a bit, altruistic, even though altruism is a genetic behavioral trait in many species). Learn some science.
Automation and decentralization don't go together. Look at the automated diesel pumps in remote areas that get scammed because there's no physical human presence.
And the current arrangement isn't throwing out a lot of babies with the bathwater every 4 years? This is probably an intractable problem, which is likely the reason why so much sci-fi deals with a future USA that is divided into various political entities, instead of remaining united.
It would be smarter to take an A380 and make super-luxury seating - "3 times the seating of a regular first-class seat", along with on-board hot spas, etc., and advertise that you'll fly at the SLOWEST cruising speed so as to extend the fun (and save $$$ as well). You'll get fewer takers, but you won't need as many - that's part of the appeal.
Come on, don't limit yourself. You don't have to be gay to be an abomination to christians. That's the beauty if it - they hate EVERYONE who's not just like them.
We're just one big abominable family - too bad they don't make "I'm an abomination" T-shirts. You know - to really rub their noses in it. Kind of pointless, though, given how quickly christianity is becoming irrelevant.
We're all atheists. So no, no grape flavor-aid. And who ever said we're all collectivists? We're quite the opposite. In our family, we DON'T tell each other what to do - its considered rude and stupid - like you.
Unfortunately, all governments seek to expand their role with time. And there are just some things that cannot be reconciled. The majority in some states want a christian theocracy, others want a secular society. Best for everyone to divorce, everyone gets what they want.
Tech can't "annihilate the masses." Your app doesn't beat a baseball bat. And it's far easier to sabotage a power grid upon which your tech depends than it is to defend it.
He's doing exactly what I figured he'd do - wrecking the republican tea-party by trying to give them exactly what they want. Just goes to show - be careful what you wish for.
Homolka's lawyer knew where the tapes where but didn't reveal the location to police, instead cutting a deal with the crown. Kind of hard to go back on the deal, since she wasn't the one withholding evidence, and the lawyer isn't required to disclose evidence that can convict his client.
But yes, women do tend to get lighter sentences. Parents starved their kid to death, withheld all medical treatment, the mother got house arrest while the father went to jail for a few months. WTF??? (Fortunately, the sentences are being appealed).
I guess one moral is if you're a guy going to commit a crime, get a sex change first.
Don't apologize - this is the internet, where nothing is any more serious than we let it be:-) I'm more worried about the woman who has gone silent in the last couple of hours who was messaging me about how the church folks have finally pushed her over the edge and she's going to kill herself today. I respect people's right to self-determination, including suicide, but I also think the shit-peddlers who have been egging her on for the last few years should be punished, either way. But they won't be held accountable, and that sucks. In such cases, all you can do is encourage people to hang in there and remind them of the good things they had planned, and how they might change things to achieve peace. I guess I'll find out at one point whether I was successful or not. I know that at least once in the past I was successful with someone, but that wasn't over the internet, and there's an immediacy that just isn't there when it's not in person:-(
Holy crap - even speech-to-text software can do better than the typos you just barfed out. But I agree - the flame wars and trolling (especially the trolling) on usenet were an education.
Ted Kennedy was just the latest in a series of crooked Kennedy machinations. There's enough crap and corruption on both sides of the aisle, maybe the solution would be to split up into multiple smaller republics and let people vote with their feet so they can choose their particular brand of poison / political fantasy.
Why do you have a problem with me calling Trump supporters morons? They've proven that they have no f*cking clue, and that, if they were turkeys, they would be voting for thanksgiving. BTW - moron was an acceptable medical term, as was retarded. Retarded is, in many cases, a misnomer because they will never catch up with reality - it's Trump all the way down.
Of course I have a response. Just re-read what I wrote. I stand by it, and that some people deserve to be called morons and retards - they work hard at attaining that low level of mediocrity. You know, Trump supporters and such.
You constantly underestimate the ultimate mover: genes. Fuck your genes, die and disappear, my genes must survive and your genes must be destroyed and prevented from taking up the natural resources and energy that my genes could use instead. That is the basics of it.
Too late - my genes are already passed on into the next generation, and the generation after that. And in another 15 - 20 years or so, yet another generation. So since it's too late for my genes to die and disappear, I would strongly encourage you to restore the balance by offing yourself.
What is so wrong about the "they will kill you and take your stuff" argument? It has the backing of history. Or are you going to say we should just ignore the lessons of history that make a solid case against you? Retard.
Let's see. You are claiming it didn't succeed because "every person that gets a job and makes extra money on top of their UBI, needs to contribute a portion of their income towards the UBI program, which makes it much less attractive to get a job." but that's exactly what happened. A percentage of UBI was clawed back as earned income rose, and yet people DID work, and DID contribute back to the program. So, according to your stated standards, it WAS a success.
Women aren't liars and thieves like men are. She's probably just been scammed herself by her employees who lied to her about their results, and now she is trying to set that right.
None of this changes the fact that the vast majority of serial killers are men, but to say that women aren't "liars and thieves like men" when women can be serial killers is a bit... well... not buying it.
And obviously, you aren't either... but this being slashdot, there's going to be some who need <sarcasm> tags...

You sure do a great imitation thereof. Take a bow. Or maybe you're just one of those fucked up Ayn Rand libertarian types.

In many cases, yes - they went on to regular, full-time jobs that continued even after the program ended. Or do you not count that either?

Right because women have a monopoly on fuckin up companies. /sarcasm
Well, men certainly have a pretty strong record of f*cking up countries. Though the UK's May is going for the silver (Trump has a lock on the gold).
She's "paying" them with worthless shares.
Tax write-off. He knows the shares are worthless, so might as well realize the loss and use it to offset gains elsewhere.
Women aren't liars and thieves like men are. She's probably just been scammed herself by her employees who lied to her about their results, and now she is trying to set that right.
