  1. Re: Just wondering... on MIT Removes Online Physics Lectures and Courses By Walter Lewin · · Score: 3, Interesting

    The issue with the Nazi medical experiments is that their methodology was utter shite. This means that figuring out what data is good vs what data is bad would be very difficult to say the least. You will see that we had no problem using the data from Unit 731. Why? Because they actually understood the scientific method.

  2. Re: The anti-French jokes are on you on French Publishers Prepare Lawsuit Against Adblock Plus · · Score: 1

    Bring your aristos back and we'll chat. Y'all killed off the only competent people you had running the country. Well, you did bring in a rather promising Corsican, but he had to go and piss off the British.

  3. Re: Have the Germans threaten to invade on French Publishers Prepare Lawsuit Against Adblock Plus · · Score: 1

    The French military fares well. The French high command however sucks donkey dick during the day and llama dick during the evening, except on Sundays where it is a steady helping of duck dick.

  4. Re: Standard FBI followup on Man Caught Trying To Sell Plans For New Aircraft Carrier · · Score: 3, Informative

    This base canard again? To anyone paying attention, the only civilians on scene were the guys in the van. Which the guys in the chopper had no way of knowing they weren't connected to the guys carrying AKs and RPGs towards the marine component several blocks away.

  5. Re: It Remains a Journalism Scandal. Deal With It. on Bounties vs. Extreme Internet Harassment · · Score: 1

    At least one of the so accused has admitted sleeping with her. Moreover, while ostensibly he did not sleep with her until after her game was mentioned, it has been shown that he was a close friend prior. Either way a breach of ethics.

  6. Re: Yes that is exactly what feminist women want. on Bounties vs. Extreme Internet Harassment · · Score: 1

    Correct they are males. Would you care to guess one of the primary effects of testosterone? That's right, increased aggression. More germane to the discussion is that while you're average mentally ill person is not dangerous, that doesn't change the fact that every mass murderer in the past 30 years in the US was either obviously batshit crazy or a sociopathic terrorist of some form. Or employed by an alphabet agency

    Well, you could tell them you know jack all about neurobiology. Given brain formation children are all effectively psychopaths until partway through puberty.

    Sorry, but when someone, no matter their gender, asks me a question as vague as 'what is that' while pointing at my phone I'm not gonna assume they're asking which version of Android the phone is running. Instead I will assume lcd status of the questioner in regards to the object in question.

  9. Re: The Conservative Option on Texas Ebola Patient Dies · · Score: 1

    Actually really easy to spread for ISIS with a group of people willing to die for the cause. One person gets infected in liberia on purpose by drinking some infected blood. He then gets his ass to mexico, where 5 to 10 people wait for him to become symptomatic and then use his bliod to infect themselves. They get their asses across the border to our 5 biggest cities where other groups await to infect themselves and then dump infected fluis across the city and infecting the homeless or using needles and then passing them among the drug using population.. Then getting sick and dying themselves.

  10. Re: The problem with double standards. on 35,000 Walrus Come Ashore In Alaska · · Score: 1

    Bullshit. Saying green tech will help in any of the catastrophic models is like saying pissing on a house fire will put it out. Now, in the non-catastrophic models, green tech can help, but then it also won't be too hard for humanity to adapt to any changes. As such you would never gain the political will needed to implement said tech in India or China thus making the point moot.

  11. Re: The problem with double standards. on 35,000 Walrus Come Ashore In Alaska · · Score: -1, Redundant

    if you want people to actually respect your pisition, then you should act like the realities of your position demand. In the case of AGW catastrophism that requires one of three positions. One, push for massive amounts of research into large scale carbon sequestration or other terraforming techniques. Two, call for the extinction of 80% of humanity. Three demand the entire world follow the living standard of a North Korean peasant. Those are your only three options to actually solving the situation. Everything else is just you slapping your dick in peoples faces.

  12. Re: the solution: on The $1,200 DIY Gunsmithing Machine · · Score: 1

    No. Well, you're right about the British actions, as technically speaking the shot heard round the world was fired in defence of the colonists keeping their ammo and powder. You are wrong about the rest. There were plenty if anti-black and anti-poor gun control laws passed post Civil War, the most famous probably being the New York Sullivan Act.

    Perhaps the black man should worry more about being killed by other black men instead since that is where the danger actually lies.

  14. Re: Homicides up by 50% in the UK on The $1,200 DIY Gunsmithing Machine · · Score: 1

    Of course total homicide rates in the US actually dropped faster over the ten years following the PAM laws, but lets not let reality impact your cherry picking of statistics shall we. Then there's the fact that the UK only counts something as a homicide with a court conviction.

    Wow, just wow. That was the worst summation of the situation that didn't devolve into outright fantasies. Vox Day was only even tangentially involved to help prove the point of Sad Puppies II.

    The punk assed bitching over the Hugo's this year, both over the original speaker and the hilarity that was Sad Puppies II shows that you're full of shit. There are maybe 4 authors that are obviously right wing and published by the big 6 in fiction.

  19. Re:hahaha! on House Majority Leader Defeated In Primary · · Score: 1

    Sorry, but there were plenty of scientists who denounced Gally as wrong as well. This is because he was a giant fucking asshole to everyone, including his contemporaries, and completely fucking wrong on quite a few subjects, meteors being but one. Had Gally not been such a giant asshole and also decided that snidely insulting the pope was a bad career move, the church never would have put him on trial in the first place, let alone successfully.

    Wow you're an idiot who wanted entirely too much NCIS. Tracing a gun is generally useless, and ballistic fingerprinting databases have not once been instrumental in solving a crime. Not to mention the science itself is almost certainly hogwash.

  22. Re:Gun grabbers never give up on Gun Rights Groups Say They Don't Oppose Smart Guns, Just Mandates · · Score: 1

    Clearly a certain marine needs to take a statistics class. As well as pay attention to trends. Namely the trend of more guns in the US over the past 20 years along with a 49% reduction in homicide rates and a 70%+ reduction in other gun crime rates. Yet more guns per capita are in circulation than ever before in the history of the US.
