Rape is vaginal, anal and/or oral penetration without consent. Fondling is any sexual contact without consent. Consent is a free and clearly given yes, not the absence of a no, and cannot be received when a person is incapacitated by alcohol or drugs.
It would be interesting to know which journalists chose to report the story in an obvious flamebait fashion, ignoring the science. Who will watch the watchers?
This is a total troll article and complete flamebait. But what else do you expect? When the Left does not in the least believe that fairness should apply to the enemy side? When the media is marching in lockstep, taking its marching orders from the government, what are We The People supposed to do? This is not journalism, it is storytelling designed to advance a left-wing agenda packaged as facts but is nothing but politics. It's sad that the critical thinking skills of educated people can't decode a simple situation like this, but that's where we are today.
People who pre-order stuff like this don't actually care about receiving the product. They care about the excitement of being a part of something. Go to the store, buy a headset, 30 minutes of excitement, tops. Do the kickstarter or preorder, and you extend this feeling for MONTHS. Moreover if it doesn't happen you get to be a victim and complain loudly in public, something that is denied to most of us because we're usually considered oppressors.
Giving control to autonomous cars means giving up control ourselves. This is very scary as it means the car won't go where we want it to go, it'll go wherever it feels like going. Add to this there are lots and lots of people who just LOVE being in control (control freaks, i.e. Hillary Rotten Clinton) and driving a car is one of the ways they enjoy this feeling.
Moreover about five minutes after autonomous cars are finished development, there are going to be tons of restrictions on where they are allowed to go and when they are allowed to do so. Sorry, can't get to your doctor's appointment across town, today is a pollution day and cars are restricted to essential personnel like government bureaucrats. Sorry, can't take you to the shooting range because that's a strong indicator your political thoughts are unacceptable to the media. Sorry, can't go to the lake for the weekend as the EPA has determined that pleasure trips are wasteful. Sorry, can't go to the ballgame as society has determined your high job productivity is essential and risking you in an unnecessary car trip is harmful to all the non-working people that you're supporting. It's all about who's going to be in control - you, or some assholes who don't care about you.
I just don't get why Assange and his Wikileaks participated in this. It does not help his side in any way, and in fact the emails are very damaging. They reveal that the Democrats planned violent anti-Trump protests. Signs were pre-printed and shipped to paid shills who acted as protesters. They told the media to stop reporting stories. They rigged the primaries to screw over Sanders. Assange revealing this kind of thing just plays into the hands of the enemies. Has he gone crazy in that embassy? I just can't figure out why he would deliberately harm his own side like this. He's really the one to blame here, not Russia.
It wasn't a problem as long as it was happening to the little people. It happens to an elite personally? BIG PROBLEM. Elites have nothing but contempt and hate for ordinary Americans so why should they give a shit if we're being illegally searched? We can't even be trusted to vote correctly so we totally deserve anything horrible that happens to us.
Fuck the rural poor, give the money to city people who are already rich! Great idea you have there. Oh, dear, parking! Let me guess, you bitch about parking but then have no problems with a $17 lunch.
Unless the authority is Crooked Hillary. You can trust her! Don't question her, it just helps the enemy! If we all pull together, we can ensure America turns into a one-party state. I'm with her!
Leave people alone? Are you delusional? Liberals believe in the power of government to affect people's lives. They want you to have a "relationship with your government", like it's a girlfriend or something. They expand, expand, expand the power of government because they believe it to be positive and NOT subject to corruption or any of those yucky things. If We The People were left to our own choices, we'd just choose wrong! Look at Brexit! The people were presented with a clearly correct choice and a clearly wrong choice, and they screwed it up! How can you trust people like that?
In reality, giving the government more and more power just leads to corruption. Example #1: Hillary Clinton, and we need look no further. Clearly corrupt, clearly belongs in prison, the evidence is overwhelming. She cuts a deal with the Attorney General to keep her on after she's elected and the charges go away, POOF!
And I decided that by reason of character, by reason of background, and experience, but also especially by reason of results, she would be the most qualified person to be president in January of 2017.
What the fuck? Seriously? Anyone else who said this would burst out laughing. Hillary has zero character. Her background is rotten. Her results? Like what? Starting an undeclared war in Libya so her buddies could make money? This just doesn't pass the giggle check. How can educated people DO these things?
1) The elections were valid according to the international community. 2) Reductio ad Hitlerum, a fallacious argument. Hitler was a vegetarian, therefore vegetarians are fascists.
I see you fail to grasp that the fascists are the people with uniforms, tanks, guns, and who march in step. Seriously, are they that hard to spot? You know, the ones who just tried to overthrow the government and start fascism? Anyone getting "purged" is pro-fascist, and honestly I can't say anyone in the world is sorry for them. They made their bed, now they have to sleep in it. Let this be a warning to all those who would ally with fascists.
A lot of people are going to scream and shout because of their Islamophobia. Are you on the side of the Islamophobes and fascists, or on the side of the people?
You know what's fascism? Complaining about a free and fair election and trying to overthrow the legitimate government with armed force. "I don't agree with this" isn't what fascism means...although far too many people who are educated enough to know better are using the word that way.
Yaknow, I might have a sliver of empathy for doctors, if they actually gave a shit. The last time I had a medical issue they didn't pay any attention to what I said, ordered a few tests, and shooed me out of their office lickety-split. If they had actually listened and prescribed a course of treatment, I might feel differently. But nope. One doctor actually had the gall to ask ME what I wanted to do. Like I'm an expert! What the fuck? How do you even ask something like that?! Heal me, you fucking quack!
You'll like this story then. A friend of mine was buying sunglasses from a Chinese factory. He was asking about the UV protection level, and evidently there was some problem translating the concept. Him and his translator went back and forth with the factory owner a few times with no result. Finally, a light goes on in the owner's eyes and he says, in English, "Ahh, yes...we have sticker!" True story.
Wouldn't you rather have your data extracted by an uninterested foreign country, than your own government which is quite likely to use it against you? Man, for the days before Obama when people could assume the US government was generally on their side.
Good news for you, our government has decided to move some more people into your home which you have "claimed" and you say you have "bought". Evaluations have determined your are selfishly hogging 3 bedrooms to yourself. Two of those bedrooms can house other families. What a scam? No, this really happens today.
Is there a word for this phenomenon? When the article is clearly about one topic, and someone writes a reply about a totally different idea? If there's not a word for this in English, then there should be one.
You live in a really bizarre world. This world of yours certainly isn't attached to the planet Earth in any way. An odd phrase, "administrative means of allocating and distributing those resources just needs to be found." You mean socialism, right? In your Bizarro World, socialism is a great way of allocating and distributing resources. On the planet Earth, well, I'll let the people who actually lived under this kind of "enlightened" government tell us how allocation and distribution actually works in practice:
"If socialists controlled the Sahara Desert, within ten years there would be a shortage of sand."
It was the site of an infamous sneak attack perpetrated by their own people. The Japanese are on a tour of Hawaii, they don't really know where they're going, or care. A lot of tourists are just checking sites off their list. Funny thing is, the Japanese tried to take Hawaii during the war and failed. So, after the war they came and bought the place.
Did you even read what the man wrote? Social services were a temporary solution, a safety net. You're supposed to have the net catch you if you fall, then you get right back up again. The safety net is not a lifetime guarantee of free money and phones in exchange for voting Democrat. Unfortunately that's what it's become today. We all saw that during Katrina, people had been on welfare for three generations and were utterly incapable of doing anything for themselves, government had to do it all.
I realize a lot of hate for conservatives is in this thread, but then again expressing hate for those who think differently is a Slashdot feature these days. This idea that people should work isn't new, and it isn't conservative. Socialism isn't the party of free money for everyone, it's the party of workers. Don't work? Then socialists couldn't care less about you.
I don't want to punish anybody, but there are an extraordinary number of people who I might want to killâ¦I think it would be a good thing to make everybody come before a properly appointed board just as he might come before the income tax commissioner and say every 5 years or every 7 yearsâ¦just put them there and say, 'Sir or madam will you be kind enough to justify your existenceâ¦if youâ(TM)re not producing as much as you consume or perhaps a little bit more then clearly we cannot use the big organization of our society for the purpose of keeping you alive. Because your life does not benefit us and it canâ(TM)t be of very much use to yourself.' George Bernard Shaw, socialist
The same man also said, "all great truths start as blasphemies" which is very relevant here. Who just got offended?
I shudder to think how many women you've raped.

Sell "it"? Sell what? There isn't any product to sell. They never made any.

Funny, the headline I'm looking at right now says, "Chinese State Company Unveils World's Largest Seaplane".

Yes, because the negotiation and due dilligence for 32 billion dollar deals happen in a few weeks. +4 Insightful what kind of crap is that?!?
