I turned off the ads on utorrent after a particularly salacious ad featured a lingerie clad derrière of a young woman squatting over a golden egg. It literally looked like she had just shat a golden egg. Not an image I want when I'm downloading Gravity Falls.
And then there's the stupid video, and voice ads that pop up, and takes me forever to figure out how to turn off. I'm sick of having cocks, and boobs waved in my face when all I want to do is look at a comic. Thank Dawkins I don't have any kids. I don't know how I'd explain that egg ad to them.
How fast can you draw a diagram on a computer? Will it look roughly like what you're copying? Would you have be able to do it faster, and more accurate than you would have by hand?
Seriously, I'm sick of scientist being blamed for crap. Especially when they've been warning about global warming from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H...> the 1970s and there's been consensus since the eighties.
You want someone to blame? Blame the fossil fuel special interests groups that taken up, and refined the tactics of big tobacco. Blame the billionaires that fund conspiracy theorists, and wack-a-doodle that muddies the debate. Blame the hair brain bloggers that have made a living out character assassination, and hysterical invective against the scientist that are trying to communicate their findings to the public.
These are the arseholes you should blame. Not the scientists.
The role of satire is to comfort the afflicted by afflicting the comfortable, or so Doonesbury said. Trolling does not do that. It is either cheap attention grabbing for shit and giggles, or more often, an attempt to intimidate a certain group of people into leaving the Internet.
If you disagree then explain to me the subtle social commentary of posting photoshopped pictures of Robin Williams' body to his daughter. Or bombarding a feminist website with gore, and rape porn.
The majority of trolling these days is about bullying people of opposing viewpoints into submission. They only seek their victims' attention in order to affect that.
Dude, considering the number of times GPS units send people driving into the ocean, or down a train tunnel, I think it's going to be a while before robotic cars are going to be safer than humans.
I really don't see how Uber are going to be protecting customers. Do they require background/criminal/driving history checks on their drivers? Do they require require vehicle inspections to determine how safe your car is? There a plethora of other requirements that I can't think of that I know have been address on other threads.
They're not only allowed to speed, but they can now legally deploy oil slicks, and smoke exhausts against other motorists. But only if they're playing the theme to Peter Gunn really loudly.
Why would I make a comment on a youtube video if I didn't want it public? If I wanted to keep it private I'd just email them something like, "Lol funny cat video. Kitty is so funny."
Besides, I'm of a certain age where most of my friends aren't on any social network, and don't want to be. And truth be told neither do I.
Unfortunately the jellyfish sent one of their top soliders back in time to protect the mother of the greatest jellyfish general to have ever lived. So we're still screwed.

Charlie Booker had a good analysis on why you're wrong. It has nothing to do with freedom of speech. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
Facebook, Facebook, what's on my Wall. Who's the fairest of them all?
Stop speeding.
Other than that, I don't think the police have the right to complain about the public monitoring their behaviour. Corruption only grows in the dark.
Sokath, his eyes open.

That's easy to solve. Shoot the bears that are wearing neck ties.

But who will protect us from you.
Right. My first reaction to reading the headline was, "You fool, you've doomed them all."
But how many libraries of Congress was that?

An awesomely hilarious demonstration of said Orion pulse drive
I don't see how a conviction for possessing child porn is irrelevant or outdated. So I don't like his chances.

Fantastic. I could wear it during jury duty. And no one would know I was asleep.
It says right there in the first sentence that he stopped smoking 30 years ago. I guess some people got swept away by their righteous smugness.

Unexplanied fires are a matter for the courts.
Model Ssss- I mean Canyonero.
I think most of Yahoo's problems stem from the fact that the hire programmers that use Outlook?

They're actually trying to raise a Russian sub.
They've already proven that chickens are simultaneously a wave, and a particle.
