The worst than happen when spam cross my filter is that I have to press flag as spam, considering the trouble caused, this problem does not deserve anymore resources than it currently has.
It's much worse than that. Spam accounts for more than 90% of email traffic arriving at servers. There is also much more to malware than spam. Don't lose track of the fact that bots are computers controlled by criminals. There are probably hundreds of millions of them.
Corrupt leaders will exploit whatever ideology is necessary in order to stay in power.
While it is easy and comforting to label people such as Adolf Hitler corrupt the fact is that they are usually sincere as hell as are most of their followers.
It may be reasonable to start doing something against the bots but "no holds barred" is never justified. "Fighting fire with fire" just burns everything down.
That wouldn't get rid of them. Better to keep them occupied with a cheap diversion (which also keeps the athletes busy). Do you really want the jocks and their fans wandering around looking for something to do?
>...last week they got elected to UN's women's rights agency.
You need to put "elected" in sneer quotes. The candidates for these positions are always determined in advance by backroom deals, with the number of candidates normally equalling the number of openings. This one was actually unusual in that there were 11 candidates for 10 positions. Of course, the organization itself only exists for propaganda purposes. It will not benefit women in any way (except for those female politicians who use it to futher their careers).
Everybody. We argue about it, use various conflicting definitions for a while, and eventually converge on a consensus. That's how natural language works.
> The IAU......determines what definition will be used in IAU publications. Their definition is influential but not necessarily dispositive.

And so are you. All humans are.

You won't be qualified for that good a job. You'll have to settle for something in IT.

I doubt that death threats are anything new to Zuckerberg. He probably gets them every day from privacy kooks.
Hollywood execs are not reknowned for courage.
This is about Fedora, not RHEL.
> Part of good sports writing is that it evokes emotions.
Then I've never read any good sports writing (unless boredom counts).

"The RoboSportReporter is broken again. It looks and smells like someone poured a beer into him."
They were just trying to make him more realistic.

Threaten them with what, loss of a miniscule market?
They aren't. They're using it as a replacement for the output of sportswriters.
...in Britain.
Most hobbiests don't have the backing of a newspaper and a defence contractor.
Cheat.
Mod parent up.
Possibly because only 400 considered the issue of sufficient importance to hang around for.
It means that whatever is that your smoking, I don't want any.
That's actually a fairly reasonable argument.
...when hearing appeals in civil cases. They consider only errors of law.
Very, very, very, very, very hard. Do the math.
The IAU decided that, at the same meeting where they threw Pluto off the list of planets.
> Who decides what the definition of "planet" is?
Everybody. We argue about it, use various conflicting definitions for a while, and eventually converge on a consensus. That's how natural language works.
