  1. Re:So, they dox anybody who complains on Cloudflare Helps Serve Up Hate Online: Report (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    I thought that only applied in court?

    "Hate speech is speech which attacks a person or group on the basis of attributes such as gender, ethnic origin, religion, race, disability, or sexual orientation."

    That's the definition.

    Who put you in charge of the English language, you whining little shit?

    The war isn't against right wing populism, its against populism in general.

    I don't see a problem with this.

    Then again, I'm not a complete bogan so I don't think populism is a synonym for democracy.

    It's Smurfs 2. What else could you possibly want?

  5. Ik1ll3dN1col3S1mps0n. Bloody plugins.

  6. The one exception, I think, is if the password itself is incriminating. In that case providing it would be witnessing against yourself.

    That's why my password is .

  7. The 5th was written to prevent what the Judge ruled in this case.

    No it wasn't. It was to 1) exclude testimony obtained by torture and 20 to prevent prosecutors tagging on a perjury charge if you said you didn't do it but were found guilty.

    Rights and freedoms are not granted by the government, they are natural and inalienable

    It may say that, but is it true?

    In another bit it claims that rights are granted by some man who nobody's actually seen and who a sizeable number of people don't believe exists.

  9. I agree. Probable cause - tick. Warrant, tick.

    Cue the "OMG Gubmint freedahm111eleventyone!!!!!" from the peanut gallery...

  10. What's the silly bugger on about? Are they going to be triangular or something?

  11. and the little hearts above every lower-case "i".

    I never thought I'd find a valid use for unicode!

  12. On second thoughts, I might have to work with criemer.

    I'll give it a miss.

    When that is not the case, Agile fails; but that is not really a big deal as a practical matter, because the non-Agile approaches also fail under those conditions.

    I don't think that's the case. Traditional methodologies can produce acceptably mediocre results from not particularly brilliant people who don't get on especially well given long enough timelines. Maybe that's why they were developed.

  15. So if you play your cards right you could get paid twice for doing nothing? Where do I sign up?

  16. Have you tried anything other than standard white rice? Wild brown rice, Thai red, Italian black...

  17. UHT? Pah. When I was a kid there was a thing called sterilised milk. It came in beer bottles.

    It was yellowish in colour & kept for weeks, unrefigerated, after opening. That's to say it didn't taste any worse than when it was opened.

  18. paying interns more than what the average American earns.

    Do people actually talk like that?

  19. Increasing the fat content of food makes it far more expensive to produce

    Really? Which costs more per unit weight - prime lean steak or shergarburgers?

  20. Fat is essential for brain development, our kids definitely shouldn't be eating low fat.

    Low fat isn't no fat.

    Care to estimate the percentage who: A) eat too little fat such that they suffer brain impairment B) eat enough, more or less and C) eat too much and are obese?

    I suspect that in most developed countries A) is like the rounding error of C).

    To people like Asshole Michael, socialism means anything that annoys them.

    That baseball umpire who called "out" when he was clearly safe. The weather yesterday. That steak that looked OK but was really stringy when cooked.

    Keep in mind that this is NOT the finished product, so don't diss on something until its done and finished.

    What would be the point in "dissing on" something that's finished? By then it's too late to change it.
