any publicly open channel you are 'listening to' [are] a bunch of fuckwits.. infiltrated by the cia, fbi, the mainstream media and normal armchair commentators/criticizer/dumbasses such as yourself.
No shit, Sherlock.
That didn't stop the Anonymous twatwaffles from DDOSing Sakhnin College. And I checked: it fell off the web shortl afterwards.
Im sure those students are having a really annoying sunday when they are all at the mosque
Sunday's a regular workday in Israel, dumbass. Including in the Arabic schools.
One of the big scores for Anonymous was that they defaced the page for Adalah.
Adalah is an organization providing probono legal help to Israeli minority citizens for discrimination cases.
Way to go, Anonymous. What a bunch of fuckwits.
(Added style points for starting this op on Holocaust Memorial Day, and trying to DDOS Yad Vashem. And for getting this op led by a citizen of Mauritania, the one remaining country that still has slavery.)
"Actually, if he really wanted to do something about it he would find a French lawyer then let the guy pursue a no win - no fee civil case for damages against the business in question. "
No-win-no-fee is illegal just about everywhere outside the English speaking world.
"Oddly, we also have far less shooting massacres than you bloody Septics. Funny how those seem to be related, isn't it?"
Not that the parent comment isn't daft, it is, but you should know that us Septics enjoy a far gentler street culture, and encounter casual violence far less than you Limeys, precisely because our criminals keep killing each other.
I didn't know commodities as a whole were affected by global warming. I guess we can't grow as much cobalt or whatever as we used to. Or are you claiming that modern economics actually is right? In that case, shouldn't we consider costs and benefits of everything, not just your one-sided perceived costs of AGW?
Wheat. Barley. Soy. Maize.
What do you think happens when the climate degrades the productivity of the world's breadbasket regions?
You're seeing that now with the wild fires in Colorado, New Mexico and Utah.
Or we're seeing the effects of bad forestry practices dating back to the beginning of the last century. Please recall that for a long time, the US would aggressively fight fires the moment they appeared. This resulted in a massive build up of fuel for wildfires.
You're seeing that with the heavy rains in Florida.
Which gets heavy rains anyway.
I find it interesting how one replier can tell me that we don't and can't understand the effects of climate while another tells me exactly what effects AGW already has had. How about you two get together and sort out your talking points first?
Already has had? We just lost the cherry harvest in the upper Midwest. Vermont's maple harvest is being wiped out.
Then explain Springfield, IL. You can't throw a beer bottle in this town without hitting a bar with it; there are at least five within staggering distance from my house. Yet folks here still get plastered and drive.
I would bet those folks don't live within staggering distance or within bus distance from those 5 bars.
Want to know why drunk driving is so endemic in the United States?
Here's a hint:
most bars in the US are in towns and suburbs where they are not served by public transit, AND, the are required to have parking spots for all their customers.
If ever there was a business that should be forbidden to have customer parking, it's a bar.
Of all the things about liquor laws in the US, this is the most insane.

Your mask is slipping
I'm listening on IRC right now, and these twatwaffles just got trolled into DDOSing Sakhnin College, an Arabic trade school.
It's funny to see these idiots fall for it, but Sakhnin's students are probabl having an annoying day.

The only people on the planet not livng in a "stolen house" are the Icelanders.
Is there anyone here on /. who falls for that inane bullshit>?
Starner and Mann worked together at the MIT media lab.
If you want to evict a customer, you say "sir, we will not serve you. Now leave."
You do not assault him.
"In any case, this guys seems a bit disconnected from reality:"
What do you expect?
It takes people who are just that little bit cuckoo to do the pioneering work in fields like augmented eyesight.
Think of it this way: the first man to drink cow's milk was completely bonkers.

"Bostonians and Brits are by far the most violent men I've seen anyplace."
Just what do you do when you come to Boston?
I've been here 20 years. Got my stuff stolen a few times, but I've only even seen one fight, let alone been in one.
It's not so harmless and jokey when it includes their home addresses.
"What makes you think he would ever get a day in court in the US?"
Ellsberg did. Ghods, your type has the memory of a goldfish.

What makes Barry Bonds's home runs the result of his taking steroids and not the results of swings he would have taken anyway?
Hey genius, go look at the price of commodities.

The effects of warming are hitting everywhere.
Exactly. "Society" for him clearly doesn't refer to the, oh, 100,000,000 Bengalis who need to find new digs thanks to sea level rise.
"There are few homes in town that don't have at least one bar within walking distance. "
Key words: in town.

Of course you see nothing wrong with it. And neither do many people.
And that's why we have a drunk driving problem.
It might be fine for you. It might not be so fine for the motorcyclist you knock off and kill.

That would be news to the Greenlanders and Nunavuuters.
We have a lot more landmass by the equator than in the polar regions.
What would really give us more land would be an ice age. All that Sahara desert turning into a breadbasket.
