No, I just go for the throat. Been like that since I was kid. I'm not defending anyone here, just needling idiots who post anecdotes without any shred of proof.
I'm not saying it's not possible. But talking about hypotheticals is just that. Go find me a leftist group organized and burying stories and we'll talk about that when it happens.
WTF are you talking about? Did you read GP's comment? Do you even understand the flow of this conversation?
I don't care what you think "I think". What happened, happened. I can't even begin to understand what meds you forgot this morning to set you off like this.
Seriously, why is everyone suddenly acting all surprised that this sort of thing goes on at places that make it possible?
Who's acting surprised? A study was done, showing a conservative group was burying stories they didn't like on Digg.
If anything, it's funny. A group of people who've convinced themselves (with no proof!) that the world is biased against them decide to start actually introducing bias into one tiny system in a systematic fashion. You can't make this shit up.
I guess it is only an issue now because the left's ox is being gored which is a serious violation of fairness, as opposed to when the right's ox is being gored which is considered to be entirely fair.
Nope. Pay attention: Actual investigative reporting was done here and the results were published. You're free to do your own if you'd like to back up some of your more spurious claims.
- The majority of the Democrats (like KKK Wizard Robert Byrd) voted against the 1950s and 60s Civil Rights Legislation. They don't teach you that in history books, do they?
Awww, you left out the ending of that story! How d'you expect the young'uns to learn if you're gonna truncate shit like that?
Pssst, kids: That 'majority' of Democrats who voted against civil rights legislation decided the Democratic party wasn't racist enough so they crossed the aisle and joined the Republicans instead.
In fact, kids, those fuckheads are the major reason why the GOP turned from the party of personal responsibility and fiscal prudence to the "blowjobs-for-the-rich, reach-arounds-for-the-fundies" party. I say it's time to kick the fuckheads out a second time. Let them make their own party instead of taking over another this time.
Wasn't there a Beowulf Shaeffer story where he discovered the one thing that would fuck up a GP hull? Anti-matter or something similar. The Puppeteers paid him off to keep it quiet.
LOL, for someone who does his righteous indignation schtick daily here on this site, it's a wonder you bother.
As for the hypocrisy, I can maybe, just maybe, see that marketing and helping others not die are actually two different things, and I'm sure others can too. Just because you can't doesn't mean you have to choke down your bile so often.

Actually, this crash IS his second crash. He survived one other in 1978.
4 ad hominem replies to my post! 4! Ah Ah Ah!
It would be interesting to hear the admins take on whether or not it's working in its current state.
You're new here, so I'll let you know: Don't hold your breath.
you feel like you need to be defensive?
No, I just go for the throat. Been like that since I was kid. I'm not defending anyone here, just needling idiots who post anecdotes without any shred of proof.
Thanks for breaking up that monotony.
Read my reply to your sibling.
Also, find me the part where I said I didn't think there are any leftist groups anywhere else possibly doing the same thing.
I'll wait...
And another ad hominem! The hits just keep on coming!

Pithy! You suck your dad's cock with that mouth?
Hey, an ad hominem! You fucking wasted your time posting a comment just for that? Pathetic.

Both sides were doing it
Got any citations to back that up? Go do your own study, then you'll be allowed to spout that shit.
Except that you've all built up a narrative of what you think mainstream america should be, not what it is.
Hey, find me the research that shows leftists burying stories on Digg, and then you can have your hissy fit
I'll wait...
Ahhh slashdot, where an AC anecdote contradicting the story gets an insightful mod.
We have found the conspiracy...and it's a bunch of conservatives!
Seriously, I listen to Rush every day, so I'm surprised and shocked. SHOCKED!

Holy crap, they listened to me!
There you go. Thanks for the memory refresher.

Let his family sell them on the black market, of course. What are you, some kind of communist?
Yaah, they're called roundabouts. Problem is, they're too confusing for yanks apparently. No skin off my nose, but you did ask.
That's because the Model A is a historical touchstone and the Taurus is a piece of shit.

I'm going to make a wild guess and say that you don't understand why this whole Net Neutrality thing came around.
Yes, I do. I'm arguing with fuckhead about his silly ideas, so if the comments have nothing to do with actual Net Neutrality, blame him, not me.
You claimed that a hardware enforcement would be difficult.
I claimed way more than that. Also, TVs != networking gear, and you'd know if you were a geek.
Now fuck off. You clearly don't belong here.
