  10. Re:Capitalism on Is Too Much Choice Stressing Us Out? (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    I have a very similar mindset, however, I still get stressed out because there are very few people who think this way. People who think they can take their stuff with them when they're dead. Consumers. I never understood the drive in people to follow the herd. CONSUME. SPEND THE MAJORITY OF YOUR WAKING LIFE AWAY FROM FAMILY AND FRIENDS IN ORDER TO CONSUME MORE. OBEY. If I were a sheep, the shepherd would have killed and eaten me.

    Apparently slashdot cannot display an inequal sign. So to repost:

    I can't even come up with a response to illustrate how exquisitely dumb and useless that information is to the debate. The US women's soccer team =/= the entire population of earth women. And teenage boys =/= entire population of earth men. I am honestly not sure if you could have figured that out on your own. Also Soccer =/= Frontline Military Combat. Just for good measure.

    So you're saying that all women are small fragile creatures who are both physically and mentally weak, and as such are unsuitable for combat service? And you're saying that holding women to this lower standard isn't sexist at all??? Huh.. Maybe the definition of that word has changed? ...Nope... It must be that the women in Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Lithuania, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Sweden, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada are mutant freaks with super-human abilities that allowed them to meet and surpass their military training standards. There are several other countries that allow women in combat roles other than front line heavy, roles like fighter pilots ans such. But, nah, you obviously know better than all those other military strategists and advisers because you were a Marine once.

  24. Re:It is about culture. on Facebook Launches Initiative To Attract More Minorities and Women To Coding (thestack.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    All those things you mentioned as "geek culture" are the new mainstream. Look at the news media: Today is back to the future day? Star Wars merchandising permeating EVERY media outlet? Your logic has failed. My "geek" friends no longer wish to identify with "geek culture" and have since kept all of their inherent "geekiness" under wraps because it has become a giant pain in the ass, and the most obnoxious thing any "geek" can experience is having people talking to them about common interests. To be a geek is to be socially inept, and as such this new found corporate fascination with all things "geek" has created a cultural paradox. Much like how the word "hipster" is regularly used today to describe the exact opposite of what a hipster is.

    Forgot to add I subscribe to Hulu+ w/commercials ($8/mo), Amazon Prime($99/year mainly used for buying stuff, not media) and SlingTV (which is actually pretty freaking awesome but needs more channels) and I am on my inlaw's Netflix account (score!) Most of the streaming apps available on Roku are awful, except for the big names.
