Yeah. Right. You went to the store to check this, and you can't even remember the software?
You know, my little twitter. You're so desperately trying to be a troll, just so at least *someone* interacts with you... and you're not even good at that one thing... The funny thing is, that people would interact with you, if you just were nice and acted like you had value. Because then you would have value.
But who knows what shit happened to you, so you can't do that.
You say "bias", as if it were something bad. Do you realize that stories without bias are physically impossible?
I read an interesting article about this, but I can't find it right now. Basically your senses and brain already modify the signal, and the modifications strongly depend on your experience and actual state.
What you meant was "to give their stories a point of view, that strongly conflicts my expected point of view". Normally this is either the POV of yourself, your social group, or something similar. The reason you disagree with the other POV, is that it hurts you(r group). This is of course fully valid, and spreading the own reality (and genes) is the reason you(and others) exist, so it was very successful.
What's happening here, is, that there is a small group (eg. lobbyists), whose POV (and therefore reality that supports them) is hurting a huge group (eg. the rest of the nation). You can say that they're only working to get their reality and genes spread, which is valid behavior. But it would be wiser for them, to support themselves, *without* hurting you. Because they will have a hard time, fighting against you all. And if not, then they did the right thing.
That's about it. Stay assured tough, that I will fight on your side, when the time comes.:)
Look, I know it's popular to bash the media and all, but there really are a lot of good people (the majority, in fact) in these professions who you are trashing unnecessarily.
I did not trash them. That's why I said "Of course there are idealists.".
But okay, your arguments make sense. Unfortunately - as you said - often, journalists *are* paid more for sensationalistic news. (I'm looking at you, Axel Springer AG and of course News Corporation.)
Now who will come out on top... over the long term... that's the question. And it's sad that this even has to be asked. But maybe it's just. how humanity is...
Last time I checked, he still was a human. So the question is: Are those e-mails private or government stuff? Private stuff should stay private. I think that's one of the rare rules that are globally accepted, even partially cross-species.
As above, I have to add: Him doing something wrong does not make you doing it right.
If the operator can record the DTMF tones you enter through the phone, then he can play it back to the machine or use recognition software or hardware to figure out the digits.
Luckily, this assumption is wrong. The prone system asks for my bank account number and a specific phone pin code *before* even putting me in the waiting loop. So they can't listen to is.
...but at least they're supposed to document existing events and not simply create stories.
Yeah. And politicians are <em>supposed</em> to work <em>for</em> the people... And health care is <em>supposed</em> to help you...
That's his point: As long as they work for the money/power, this conflicts with what they're supposed to do. Journalists don't get paid to document events. They're paid per story. And paid more per sensationalist story. The health care industry are paid to heal people. Not to help them stay healthy. So they have no interest in a completely healthy population, or else they would be out of business.
Of course there are idealists. But in the long term they are often forced out of business by the non-idealists taking their jobs for being more "successful".
That's the problem. There are solutions to it, but don't count on them or fix it. The only people who will act, are the one who care. You and me for example.:)
Exactly. Privacy is privcacy. Either you care, or you don't. I does not matter if it's Chavez (who is not that bad as shown trough us proparanda, but also not that good either.;). King Kong or yourself.
You should know that you can destroy chargers by leaving them plugged while not connected to the charging device. Additionally you waste energy, as you can easily find out from the heat they produce.
Seriously... if you just keep insulting people, do it in front of the mirror, so it's going to the one who deserves it.;)
Or did you try to solve your problems with Dr. Sbaitso instead of a real psychotherapist? Because this reaction clearly indicates, that you have a problem. Hint: It's *not* related to anything in this thread.
When is this "sometimes" you speak of? If it's >form action="https://server.tld/page.ext"> the data is submitted via https. Period. If you're already on a HTTPS site, a >form action="page.ext"> as enough. Of course if the site uses JavaScript to read the values and transfer it by other means, that connection should be encrypted too. But if you temporarily disable JavaScript, you're safe.
What? I had cities full of archologies. The problem was, that criminality density gent to crazy levels and then you got riots and all that, even one police per achology did not help, so i left them out. O:-D
My perpect city had 25% dams and 75% achologies. (Hmm... Did I have commecial and industrial stuff, or did the achologies contain them? I forgot...) Of course my city's landscape was layouted like that.
After I found the megacash-cheat (gave you MAXINT money or something [beware, that earing $1 gave you -MAXINT;]), I created the whole city in pause, and then unpaused it, to let them move in. I did nearly perfect cities back then.:D
Unfortunately, nothing in the world beats my brother having 127 children per family per year (!!!) in civilization 2, and getting around TWICE (!). (So it was 64, 128, -127, -64, 0, 64, 128, -127, -64, 0, 64) He's the guy that beats your racing record by 10 seconds on the first try, after you played half an hour to beat him by 2 seconds. *bursts out in tears*:_(
No. It's NOT. That's the point! And if you'd look a bit deeper than on the surface of you fixed dogma black-box, you'd see, that life easily can grow, think and everything else, without reproducing. It can simply aggregate material, and transform it, thereby getting bigger and bigger. Such a life-form would see humanity as one life-form, and would not understand our concept of groups of lifeforms. Maybe it would think that there could not possibly be more than 4 lifeforms on one planet. Such things...
There's no need for reproduction. It's just humanity's way of being a modular mono-culture, with it's advantages and disadvantages.
By the way: "Are you stupid?" is no good start for a conversation. Especially if you can't even bring any real arguments to the table. Maybe you should go to a psychologist and find out, where this uneasiness and reliance on non-existing "higher levels" comes from.
I can see why you're bashing JavaScript. You do not even know the simplest concepts like <body onload="javascript:init()">, but you think you know enough to judge it. Certainly, JavaScript is not perfect for everything. But there are many people involved into evolving into the perfect language for web applications.
As I said, it would be more nice to make the VM language-independend. And as far as I can see, this has already started to happen with the new bytecode-VMs.
Please do some professional work in JavaScript, and in other languages. If you then come to another conclusion than, that every language has it's upsides and downsides, and JavaScript is nothing especially bad (in fact it's pretty good, and certainly better than the PHP nightmare or the VB joke. [I worked professionally with all those languages.])
Maybe on a piece of paper that the current establishment does not take seriously, and hasnt for a long time.
Don't you understand this? THAT'S THE POINT!
The current establishment (if you mean the group of people you can vote for) gives a fuck about that "piece of paper" that is *the base of your state*? Well, then they have to be teached a lesson, and replaced, don't they? Revolutions are for the situations where voting does not help or is not available. Which - in the actual situation right now - would be no bad idea, would it? (As long as the revolutionists were friends of the constitution, and what it really means, of course.)

Have you no reclining chairs??
Yeah. Right.

Correct. Thank you.
As usual, the only people with problems will be those that did not crack it.
My WinXP SP3 and my Gentoo+Wine both report that they're genuine Microsoft software. O:-D
But I rarely use XP nowadays...
And with what money will you build that prototype and finance that company?
Look, I know it's popular to bash the media and all, but there really are a lot of good people (the majority, in fact) in these professions who you are trashing unnecessarily.

Where did the html-interpretation go? I said "extrans". But I think in the server "extrans" and "plain text" got mixed up.
Last time I checked, he still was a human.
So the question is: Are those e-mails private or government stuff?
Private stuff should stay private. I think that's one of the rare rules that are globally accepted, even partially cross-species.

Try explaining to the police: "That murderer that flew from the jail... I shot him..."
You will go to jail for murder too.

It seems, that the trolls now are the moderators.
You were right. They modded you troll because they were trolls.
That's what you get from feeding them all the time.. ;) :\
Especially a certain split personality gets his name mentioned often and many reactions.
Seriously... if you just keep insulting people, do it in front of the mirror, so it's going to the one who deserves it. ;)
Or did you try to solve your problems with Dr. Sbaitso instead of a real psychotherapist? Because this reaction clearly indicates, that you have a problem. Hint: It's *not* related to anything in this thread.

You said EXACTLY what I wanted to say... I thank you and second that.
And I hope someone mods you up. *hint* *hint*

TLDR (except for the beginning)
Of course there's an xkcd-comic for this one:
