Good luck pointing it out to anyone and getting them to believe it. Best of luck trying to point out the parallels between today's America and yesterday's Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia, etc. People just roll their eyes and go back to cheering about the DRUG ADDICT mom who was arrested and her kids taken by the State, after the standard Fifteen Minutes of Hate directed at the Other Party on TV.
The guy engaged in a persistent laborious and concentrated effort to stalk, harass, and threaten the guy. He did very badly wrong, many times over, with a deliberate intent and malice.
SO CLEARLY HE'S A SOCIOPATH!!1 LOL
Fucking moron.
Why? It seems like a pretty reasonable assumption.
Hey dumb ass: I capitalized ASSumption for a reason. When you ASSume shit you only end up making yourself look like a fucking heartless, clueless dipshit.
Want your name to be remembered by history? Then you need to step up and rise above and beyond the average. Otherwise, just keep doing what you're doing.
That's not a catch-22. A catch-22 would be if you had to sell books first before the language became popular. You don't have to sell books to popularize a language, but having those books available could likely help considerably if you language is actually worth using. So basically, it's kinda like if someone were to open a retail store; in order to attract customers the owned would need signs and things printed up which cost real money, but he cannot and should not expect that people should have to come in and make purchases first before he can put up the signs. He has to borrow money first and make the signs happen first.
By writing the code you've done all the work and throwing it out there costs nothing, in case someone finds it useful. Nothing more was implied nor guaranteed, did a rotten piece of source code you got from Sourceforge steal your girlfriend or run over your dog or something?
If you can't be bothered to document your code, why the fuck would I waste my time poring through it trying to decide if it will be useful to me? If you want to contribute to society then fucking contribute. Why do people get so goddamn defensive when it's pointed out their asshattery and half-assedness isn't winning them any friends? Your source code is useless to 95% of people without documentation. Document the shit, or don't bother releasing it. If you're trying to ensure your name will be forgotten and your code will rot away in the dustbin of history, then you're doing a damn good job as-is; otherwise, step up your game.
I love it when you have skimmed over and read 20 or 30 pages from a wiki, and yet still can't figure out the overall idea of what the fuck this web site is even about, because the authors can't be bothered to include one simple summary paragraph briefly describing the product and its uses. Wikis can be useful, but more often they are installed by morons who have no business being anywhere near a word processor.
You can't blame the kid bro or judge him too harshly. Guaranteed he's got a fucked up home environment. We shouldn't excuse bad behavior, but we should certainly try to understand it and to feel empathy towards those who genuinely need some help and guidance in this miserable life. I myself acted up as a kid and hurt people sometimes; I didn't mean to, that's not how I was meant to be, that's just how I was due to the situation at home. Even now I struggle to avoid being a complete asshole sometimes especially when dealing with idiots on the Internet. The things we experience in our lives influence us powerfully and without outside help sometimes it's near impossible to escape from the mental cage we've been raised in.
Sociopaths are the most manipulative people in the world. It's why the alphas go into politics. They thrive there.
Not another one of you fucking assholes. Or are you the same moron who always chimes in asserting "IT'S SOCIOPATHY! LOL" every time some person does something you disagree with? Yeah the kid did wrong, but to ASSume he's a sociopath is just utter stupidity. The kid is faking his tears? LOL. What are you, a fucking Internet armchair psychologist? Take your snake oil bullshit elsewhere please.
Obviously you're a moron, because if you have 1,000 drones attacking somewhere, how in the fucking world is 1 or 10 or even 20-50 aircraft going to shoot it down? We don't have thousands and thousands of jet fighters you know. There's only so many and only so many trained, qualified pilots.
It's just like the Panzer tanks vs Sherman back in WWII. Germans took their time producing top of the line, high quality tanks. Americans overran them with cheap ass Shermans stamped out by the thousands.
In all places in the US at least you are assumed responsible for what others do until you prove otherwise (sort of a "your connection did it so you are guilty" type of thing). You really don't want to risk getting dragged through court, losing your job, having your reputation smeared in the papers, etc
Sure, if you're a fucking coward. Patriots and freedom-loving citizens however don't mind providing free Internet to folks.....ESPECIALLY the "criminals."
And also, the Administration is full of corrupt would-be fascists. I don't much like Sheriff Arpaio, but I support him in trying to discover politicians' lies. Barack Obama is a fucking liar and piece of shit.
It's fairly ironic that in a list of things which supposedly involve avoiding external stimuli, all but two of them involve external stimuli. You have no idea what you are talking about, but felt compelled to do so anyway. I've done it too, I'm not perfect, but stop.
No, drinkypoo, the moron here is you. If you can't think through such subjects without involving other people, you are an idiot--either due to birth, or because you've been trained to be so.
The phone satisfies that, without actually being productive, since the chief way of occupying time with a phone is with a game of some kind.
No, YOUR "chief way" of occupying time is through a game. I choose to employ my time elsewhere. Yes I have a smart phone, no I don't whip it out and start playing Angry Birds at every opportunity. Just because you and your friends were raised to be slaves doesn't mean everyone is.
I'm from Alabama, you stupid fuck. Clearly you are referring to yourself in your "hypothetical" example of people with zero social skills. Great job insulting a large portion of the country in your clumsy attempt to make a point.

It's just radio frequencies. this seems a lot harder to me.
I'm a satellite communications engineer. Doesn't seem hard to me at all.
When software-defined radio becomes commonplace....it will be even more trivial.
How quaint

Hey dumb ass: I capitalized ASSumption for a reason. When you ASSume shit you only end up making yourself look like a fucking heartless, clueless dipshit.
No moron, that's not a logical inference, that's just pure stupidity. You don't know anything about psychology, clearly.

.....which is a travesty. I hope you're not advocating this.

How did that work out for Germany? What about Japan?
Obviously you're a moron, because if you have 1,000 drones attacking somewhere, how in the fucking world is 1 or 10 or even 20-50 aircraft going to shoot it down? We don't have thousands and thousands of jet fighters you know. There's only so many and only so many trained, qualified pilots.

And if they commit crimes while logging into your *locked and encrypted* AP....guess what....then it's even harder for you to prove your innocence.
Dear Taxpayer,
Fuck you, because you don't speak for me.
Also, fuck you, because I happen to want MY cops doing useful jobs, not policing people's wireless networks. What a stupid waste of taxpayer dollars.
Perhaps you could point it out and explain said "retardation", asshole? Looks perfectly reasonable to me.
PS go fuck yourself.
In all places in the US at least you are assumed responsible for what others do until you prove otherwise (sort of a "your connection did it so you are guilty" type of thing).

Why don't you just boycott them?

Stop the production lines! Trigger the EMP! bluefoxlucid isn't getting laid, so let's all put aside our technological toys so he can catch up.
