  1. Re: Everything else is simply too dangerous on AWS Urges Devs To Scrub Secret Keys From GitHub · · Score: 0

    All multiple murders *HAVE* been premeditated. Turn your damned brain on. Gun free zones have not one thing to do with irresponsibility and carelessness on the part of the gun perp, only on the part of those preventing others from defense. You know, like you with your very, very lame reasoning. .

  2. Re: Disable player chat on Getting Misogyny, Racism and Homophobia Out of Gaming · · Score: 1

    Your first paragraph is simply a pile of bull. That's not at all the reason men pay in this country at least. SocSci courses notwithstanding.

    The games I play have ignore lists. Use them and it becomes remarkably quiet very quickly. This is usually necessary right after school lets out for a vacation. Yes, you don't see those people organizing groups, but that's kind of the point, right?

    Actually, it's the adoption of Klingon battle-speak.

  5. Re:It wasn't the computer on Computer Spots Fakers Better Than People Do · · Score: 1

    "I'd say the computer is pretty intelligent." Then you are wrong. If turned on, OS allowed to settle and no tasks assigned, the computer would sit for as long as power and hardware allowed and do nothing. That is not intelligence.

  6. Re:It wasn't the computer on Computer Spots Fakers Better Than People Do · · Score: 1

    I'd call it people using tools. Only if the computer is intelligent with motivation does it become collaboration.

    Indeed. It would also be interesting to know how much time and, importantly, iterations it took to get that software to that state. Comparing that program with the run of the mill Joe or Jane isn't really fair. I'd like to see the program compared to doctors or medics.

    Google "militant feminists" - plenty of hits.

    You intrigue me with that. Pray tell, what is your definition and does it have anything to do with biology? (Hint: genetics says you're wrong.)

    Dude, you're posting AC. For all anyone knows your seventy-five, fat, have a beard and beat your wife.

    Your pomposity and self righteousness are as virtual as the horse you presume yourself mounted upon.

    As if you have the slightest fucking idea what social structures have been for 50,000 years. Two sides to the social contract and it ain't all one sided.

  12. Re:Wrong Subsection on Getting Misogyny, Racism and Homophobia Out of Gaming · · Score: 1

    That you must blatantly exaggerate the situation in games just shows how little ground you stand on.

  13. Re:Wrong Subsection on Getting Misogyny, Racism and Homophobia Out of Gaming · · Score: 1

    Missed it twice in a row. Kind of like your on-display morality here, the people referenced aren't actually victims. They said it very plainly, you just missed it twice on purpose.

  14. Don't project childish malleability on others. on Getting Misogyny, Racism and Homophobia Out of Gaming · · Score: 0

    "Not only are they hurting the player they're insulting..." Actually, no. They're causing phantom pain and grief in other people who feel the need to stand up for those who most likely don't give a shit because they want to appear morally superior. And, no a second time. They're not teaching anyone anything other than they're douches.

  15. Can you report a site to either of these lists? on Some Sites That Blue Coat Blocks Under "Pornography" · · Score: 1

    Doesn't seem like anyone has mentioned the obvious, spurious reporting for nefarious reasons. If any of these sites (like YouTube and others do) rely on people reporting porn sites to them, it's open for rife neglect.

  16. Re:Brought to you by Fox News on Back To the Moon — In Four Years · · Score: 3

    Links please. The tone of the articles are paramount. If the first was an expose, it's not quite what you paint. Even if it's as you portray, that's preferable to say, CNN, which has points of view it *never* airs because it's against their political agenda.

    That would depend on all the surrounding circumstances which you conveniently left out.

    Thieves also very frequently turn to solipsistic explanations to try to get out of things.

  19. Re:Prison is more than punishment on Time Dilation Drug Could Let Heinous Criminals Serve 1,000 Year Sentences · · Score: 1

    "Even the death penalty has never been shown to do that." I am completely unaware of any recidivism associated with prisoners who were executed. Could you please provide a couple of links?

    You're conflating punishing a criminal with averting others from crime. That was never the goal of imprisonment. The goal is removing them from society. The very first thing one needs to do is demonstrate a method of rehabilitation that works, then one can discuss what to do about prisons.

  20. Re:Ridiculous. on Time Dilation Drug Could Let Heinous Criminals Serve 1,000 Year Sentences · · Score: 1

    "Putting someone in prison is worse than killing an old person" - no, it isn't. That you consider a human life of of less value than the *growth potential* of someone who did something to get thrown in jail says a lot.

    "Their career skills are out of date." Would those be the same career skills that landed them in prison?

    I'll presume you're intelligent and so recognize the dishonest equation you're using merely to snark on the paraphrased quote. If, on the other hand, you honestly equate women who freely choose to hula-hoop with women who are murdered, you sir or ma'am, are in severe need of a realignment of your values.

    The women were encouraged but not the men? Or were women the only ones who voluntarily chose to hula-hoop?

    So you admit in your own response it's only sexist if it's two women being talked about, not two men. You should not be flinging "sexism" around.
