Professionals have a code of ethics. Professional military have rules of engagement. These toy soldiers appear to have neither, just "ends justify the means" and then lying to their bosses (Congress etc).
That was no olive branch, that was a fucking slimy trick to get me to admit that I have done wrong by calling you out for your actions. All that "in your head" stuff was making peace?
You made a big deal about how you were raised - how about sticking to that instead of letting those who raised you down.
It should be obvious from what I wrote. Sequestration keeps getting chosen because oil companies are well aware of it and it's a cheap way to do some superficial demonstrations to pretend some sort of care.
Our priority should be in R&D in areas that promise
I never said otherwise but instead just outlined why something that is short sighted and largely useless keeps on coming up instead of putting real effort into something better.
Since way before then. Find some photos of disassembly of an eMac as an example of lots of fiddly mucking about just to replace a CDROM drive or hard disk. It's like having to take an engine out to replace a spark plug.
It's a surprise to all those people who thought virtual machines would provide some sort of security by obscurity, which is probably just about every "cloud" customer out there unfortunately. One of the emulation programs, I think it was Bochs, used to give a warning on each startup not to depend on VMs for security.
A tablet just cannot shed as much heat as a larger device so it's not going to match a gaming rig with huge fans. It's actually quite amazing that the "low spec" tablets complained about have as much processing power as they have. We've become the people who if we had a chance at high speed sub-orbital flight would complain about the airline food:)
The Star Trek set thing, among others, showed that they are toy soldiers and a very very long way from being professional let alone omnipotent. Sure, they have some people who know how to work for a living instead of play but the ones who made the right friends partying at school are the ones that get to give them orders.
We are on social media here now! The difference is we have worked out not to put our real names on the stuff we are telling the whole world and his dog. Also less ads, far less personal info and even beta looked less like someone had thrown a cake at the screen than BookFace and the rest.
required to grant it full access to your Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and/or Instagram profiles
I think we need governments to step in and make such intrusion illegal. It's not just a matter of expecting people to be canny enough to give snoops a fake profile.
Yes, big government, nanny state and all that with such a move to protect the kiddies from the cold winds of capitalism unfettered by the morality we've relied on to make capitalism work. Hey libertarians out there, you are getting the world you wanted. How's it looking?
you're fucking delusional. Also, quite possibly a serial rapist and abuser, possibly even involving children
My words stand about your dishonesty and your too good to believe story about the three women who cried wolf while you just passively stood by after doing nothing - that story that kept on changing.
I think I know your motives for that but maybe you had a different motive but have not expressed it despite the ridiculous mass of text you've typed in these threads.
Speaking of which, you seem to refuse to address my rape
Of course I am not addressing it because we are discussing false reports.
I am very annoyed that you keep on pretending that I am addressing it and making a whole lot of statements about me on that basis - it looks very much like hiding behind the victim card and using leverage there to argue about something else while swamping other people with emotional stuff. You have accused me of all kinds of things on the false assumption that I was questioning it.
domestic abuse
Not the topic either.
Actual rapes by celebrities reported as false - that's right on topic about false reports isn't it?
And here we go with the desperate double-posting again
WTF?
You'd think a (presumably) retired educator would know better.
I've been back to being an engineer in the private sector for the last sixteen years instead of the few years I spent in academia when manufacturing collapsed.
Clearly, it was. It's always the intent of your type
What was it you said about projecting? Lose the baggage, you do not know me and I am not that other person you are projecting on me.
after learning that you got your facts wrong
Since the only place I could get them from is you and it turned out that you had exaggerated in the first place, as I suggested, why are you taking that line at all?
If as you say I am wrong about your motives for posting the bit about false accusations and the SEPARATE bit about the real thing happening to you that I have NEVER QUESTIONED (just not that it is a universal excuse for saying whatever you like about the false stuff -,i.e. victim card), then what exactly was the point? Do you really think a lot of convicted rapists have been falsely accused or do you have some other reason, and what is it?
Well, no, I trusted the woman who drugged and raped me, and I drank the Kool-Aid (literally) she made
And there was a false report? From what you've written the answer is no isn't it? Shouldn't it be INCREDIBLY OBVIOUS that since this discussion is about FALSE REPORTS that I'm wasn't referring to that when I was writing about FALSE REPORTS? It's a separate thing. Playing the victim card to back up a DIFFERENT SITUATION and to try to make me look like I'm kicking a puppy is a bit fucking much. Tragic yes, I've given you the benefit of the doubt with that bit all the way and assume you are being truthful with that part, but not related at all so not "proof" that the poster above you was correct about all those false rape claims.
You really lost it at the end there. It was never my intention to get you so angry just to point out how morally bankrupt it is to support this shit about women crying wolf with an example that was not about false rape reports to police at all.
I'm not the one that compared relationship spats with official rape reports to police which is what was being discussed - so no, I am most definitely not in error here.
Rape and domestic violence are trivial?
Something that is not either is trivial compared with both. Save the faux rightous anger for something else instead of deliberately pretending to be stupid. We both know that you are not that stupid.
OK, trying again: If you can calm down and stop your whining, what do you say about all the "false reports" about Phil Spector, Bill Crosby and Jimmy Saville? Jimmy Saville alone had dozens reported to police in England, Scotland and Wales, handled by what turned out to be nine different police forces in the end - all of which are not looking so false now. It kind of makes the false accusation statistics look a little less accurate don't you think, especially since the number of things filed as false accusations is so low in the first place that those celebrities accounted for a major chunk. Anything to say?
That's the problem since at the moment cheap energy comes with carbon dioxide output. Look at modern society - cheap energy solved a huge number of things at the cost of pollution. There are other sources of cheap energy but there is no magic only costs and benefits.
Where is the confusion? If start looking at geological time you'll notice that there are a lot of differences in conditions over that time. If things get really hot or cold the earth isn't fucked - we are. Life may thrive all right but not agriculturally dependent oxygen breathing us.
Different things are different. However, I'm a bit astonished that someone is able to write English at an adult level without grasping where the phrase "fossil fuels" comes from, but I suppose you could just be taking the piss and pretending to be astonishingly ignorant for some sort of fun.

That sums up every single one of your posts beyond the first.

After what has come out I'd say someone would have to be gullible to think other than what I have written.
They should be shut down and replaced by professional military intelligence.
The casual evil they do springs more from incompetence producing a poor chain of command and no enforcement of ethics than any sort of ability.

The guy who lied to start a war? Oh that's happened since from the other side of politics, fair enough.

One word answer - heat.
:)

In some places that is normal but it's also normal that if they use that key without cause they know they are in deep legal shit.

You misunderstand, the first bit was about others accusing you of something that did not really happen was it not?
If as you say I am wrong about your motives for posting the bit about false accusations and the SEPARATE bit about the real thing happening to you that I have NEVER QUESTIONED (just not that it is a universal excuse for saying whatever you like about the false stuff - ,i.e. victim card), then what exactly was the point?
Do you really think a lot of convicted rapists have been falsely accused or do you have some other reason, and what is it?
Now that was where the effect was done very well, not a vast amount of time on screen and neatly wrapped in plot.
And there was a false report? From what you've written the answer is no isn't it? Shouldn't it be INCREDIBLY OBVIOUS that since this discussion is about FALSE REPORTS that I'm wasn't referring to that when I was writing about FALSE REPORTS?

It's the distraction of choice because oil companies were already aware of pumping gas underground to drive out more oil.
That's the problem since at the moment cheap energy comes with carbon dioxide output.
