    I am not sure if I understand his complaint. Do you?

    1) And lots of creepy women. I have this "chauvinistic" opinion that men and women are similar and mostly equal, creepiness is no exception.
    2) I think many of these creepy men call themselves feminists nowadays.

    I am not denying that such cases exist, I am just claiming that saying automatically that everyone who is antifeminist or believes in false accusations is automatically a rapist himself is wrong.

    Sure, and anyone who experienced and complained about mccarthyism must be a soviet supporting red, right? A friend of mine had to deal with false accusations so I know for sure that this kind of feminism exists (and I know they are false accusations for sure, because the girl herslef said they are false, the accusations were made by a third-side feminist who thought she knew better than both of them).

  6. I don't get it, do you think that Android is better than Windows?

  7. Re:Music makes no sense on Music Charts No Longer Make Sense (qz.com) · · Score: 1

    Ignore the text in my link and just check out the links, it's a collection that I've made with others of modern good music, mostly avantgarde, metal, and electronic. I'm not sure if we have the same tastes, but I think it's still worthwhile to check a few just because it shows that there are still artists who invest effort in their music.

  8. So Windows is finally going to be replaced by something much worse? (Both in terms of usability and openness)

  9. Re:I don't use social media and I have no friends on Social Media 'Increases Loneliness', Says Study (bbc.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    Wait, "I have no friends" and "watch TV or movies with the girlfriend, other more intimate things with the girlfriend" sorta contradict, don't they? Also, I am assuming that to meet said girlfriend you had to engage in some form of socialization (I also count dating sites as socialization for this purpose)

  10. Re:I don't use social media and I have no friends on Social Media 'Increases Loneliness', Says Study (bbc.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    1) I'm curious, how do you spend your free time?
    2) I don't know, for me, being social, with people that I like, does make me happy. It makes me happy that same way that eating a candy does, or having sex, or masturbating, I feel like I have a need to be near people, preferrably to talk with them as well. It feels biological, and for me I feel that the best way to handle it is just to satisfy it rather than to try to think it's not there. I do reckon that other people can be different from me, that's why I'm curious regarding your lifestyle.

    But looking at hollywood or at the music industry, it seems like a major source of degradation.

    Note that I said "as the right says", not "as the right does". I think people missed the irony.

  15. Re:Strict liability for writing code? It's coming on CloudPets IoT Toys Leaked and Ransomed, Exposing Kids' Voice Messages (androidpolice.com) · · Score: 4, Informative

    While I agree with you, I think it's unfair to always put the blame on the programmer. In many companies that I worked for I remember seeing things that looked like this, I talked with my managers about fixing it, and they said "it is lower priority".

    As the right says about it's enemies, "they only understand force".

    Do you have any reference for this claim? (I'm not asking to prove you wrong, I'm asking because I am afraid you are saying the truth)

  19. Re:Not really a success for the AI on Machine-Learning AI Now Beats Humans At Super Smash Bros. Melee (qz.com) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I am not sure how relevant that is. Part of what makes us intelligent is our inputs and outputs. It is possible that dolphins or some other animals are much smarter than us but because they don't have opposable thumbs we developed and they didn't. Don't you think it would make us more capable if we could direct digital input? imho, the only test for the quality of an AI is "what it can do", not how.

    Then again, I do agree that this project and projects similar to it are not exactly creating "intelligence", they are creating an expert system, good for one thing and one thing only.

  20. Re:Not really a success for the AI on Machine-Learning AI Now Beats Humans At Super Smash Bros. Melee (qz.com) · · Score: 1

    The whole point of an AI is that it can think faster than us. You can call it cheating as much you want, but if one day a "stupid AI" would be able to emulate a human perfectly or research sciences just because "it is faster than us", no one would care.

  21. In the past schools' main purpose was to teach children how to be cheap industry workers. This feels like the past may be coming back.

  22. we have done this ourselves, the 1% needs to keep its revenue growth high and has no problem sacrificing your welfare to do it.

    No, it's not "we" who have done this to ourselves' it's the 1% who has done this to us. The 1% don't see you as part of their "we", and as long as you will see yourself as part of their "we", you will be playing straight into their hands.

  23. Re:"Toxic" comments huh? on Google Releases an AI Tool For Publishers To Spot and Weed Out Toxic Comments (bbc.com) · · Score: 2

    There are ways to express contrary views that doesn't involve threats and bullying.

    Funny, because I heard from many people that there are ideas that should never be expressed. Leftists told me that any research that shows a difference in mental capacity between people of different genetics should be forbidden even if truth, rightists (I'm Israeli) told me that any research that shows that there is no single jewish ethnicity is antisemitic and therefore automatically forbidden. Was there ever any time in history where your quote above was actually correctly?

    Some would say that NOT having kids guarantees that you can at least enjoy your younger years, making killing yourself after having lived a full life or saving money for old age more viable.
