So? What the fuck is your point here? Your argument is the stupidest fucking thing I have ever heard. You're literally making the argument that we should draw arbitrary lines around groups of emissions and judge them on the whole instead of the content. You are terminally stupid, dude.
I would argue the same for you. Dividing it per capita is the stupidest fucking thing I have ever heard. Your average Chinese person is a peasant living in poverty emitting no more CO2 than their fucking breath. How are they going to reduce their CO2 footprint? Stop breathing?
Talking about Chinese emissions in relation to the country as a whole is fine since the Chinese government has all of the options to deal emissions. The Chinese government can pass laws that ALL industries and individuals within China are required to obey. The average Chinese individual can have no such effect.
I just don't get you people who want to measure emissions per capita. It is industry that is doing the majority of emissions. It is industry that provides the various ways that individuals can emit CO2 in ways other than mere breathing. How does per capita help with anything other than spreading the majority of the blame onto individuals who have no fucking power to change how industry emits CO2?
LOL. You are talking about non-American ABS. American ABS and traction control (Ford, GM, etc) all UNIVERSALLY suck. You should not be surprised by people who have driven exclusively American vehicles to be turned off by Traction Control and ABS. For them, it is an accident waiting to happen. For those of us who know enough to never buy an American vehicle, we get the benefits of traction control and ABS without worrying about how it will effect our ability to control the vehicle.
Read my comment to someone else in this article. Long story short, there are iterations of ABS which suck horribly and reduce your overall stopping ability.
I am led to believe you have only ever driven American type vehicles. I was driving a Traverse in the sand and it got "stuck" because of the crappy traction control. Turn off the traction control and miraculously, no longer stuck. I won't even go into how horrible the rest of the vehicle was.
Take a Subaru or a Mercedes (japanese or european, don't care, they are better) and drive it in the sand with traction control on. You will not get "stuck".
It is the same with brakes (breaks for all the alternative folks out there). Slam on the brakes in an American vehicle and eventually come to a stop. Slam on the brakes in a Subaru or Mercedes and your wheels will chirp before the ABS kicks in.
Essentially, if you are hitting traction control or ABS in a well designed (read non-american) vehicle, you have already fucked up and it is there to save you from yourself. The American vehicles all try to be better than you and end up getting in your way.
TL;DR, I was dead set against traction control and ABS until I saw that it could be implemented in a non-intrusive manner.
Psychedelics offer an escape from the prison/slavery that is the hallmark of modern living. That can not be allowed. Each person must serve a "business" and that business must serve a government. In order to get maximum efficiency, you have to have maximum participation. Those who do psychedelics tend to drop out and not participate.
If you're not alarmed, you're either ignoring the data, or your stupid.
Why do you need the other person to be alarmed? That person has no control over anything except their own self. Even if all humans decided to impoverish themselves and not eat any food, not use HVAC to modify temperatures, etc., it would not stop the pollution. Energy will be used, regardless of any individuals. Governments will continue using computers to control their populations and weapons in an attempt at controlling their neighbors. Businesses that provide services to those governments need electricity and to emit more pollution in the creation of those services to the governments.
Long story short, the individual has jack and shit they can do about pollution other than minimizing what they throw away... but even then, planned obsolescence guarantees the individual will have to throw stuff away.
I have no control over how the energy that I use is created. Supposedly, I could buy "pure" wind or solar, but as a consumer, the prices do not reflect any such choice. The cost has been manipulated until there is no value or negative value in choosing alternative energy.
Go ahead and keep screaming at individuals. It makes no difference other than to make you look like a zealot trying to convince everyone that the Second Coming is at hand. I can't make any company, much less all of them, change how they do things. Climate change is occurring and there is nothing any average individual can do about it. This is purely in "government controlled" territory, mostly because the individual has been disenfranchised. If the government (whichever government you look at) doesn't care, then nothing is going to happen.
Go ahead and tell me to write my congressional representatives. I will tell you that I get smarmy form-letter messages thanking me for my support of whatever it is that the congress person is doing, not even addressing my concerns.
I guess I could run for office, but I am not a pure snowflake fallen from heaven, nor the money to make it seem like I am, so there is zero chance of me winning any significant office.
So yeah, go ahead and keep trying to convince individuals that Climate Change is a thing and that they can do something about it. Even the fuckfaces who roll coal aren't having a significant effect on the environment.
You should not be modded down merely because you like something that is contrary to what others think.
I could see modding you down for lying... but maybe you have not had the same experience as the rest of us. My last, and only, Windows phone would do some wonky shit until it was rebooted. It was a VERY unpleasant experience. It is possible, however unlikely, that you may not have experienced those issues. *shrug*
Eh? I have no doubt that some people actually will love it. The convenience alone is enough.
That being said, this should be made immediately illegal in every section of the world. This is one dark alley that we should never enter. Of course, that means we will enter it. I feel bad for the upcoming generations. Life is going to get psychotically bizarre before we ended up extinguishing ourselves.:(
The "reaction" time does indeed give a huge advantage the the AI. All of the "simple" stuff, like last hitting, reacting to an attack animation, etc is always perfect. I feel a certain sense of pride when I throw a hook as Pudge and catch a charging Spirit Breaker. For the AI, this will always happen.
All of that being said, DOTA is in no way winnable merely by these actions. They confer an advantage, but do not guarantee a win at all. This is what makes DOTA so incredibly fun and playable.
Playing the odds, I replaced the largest (power supply) capacitor, and now it works again. I saved the cost of a new one and saved the landfill from one more piece of e-garbage.
It is people like you who destroyed Radio Shack. You monster!/s
The micro-kernel architecture ala Tanenbaum fails the security requirement of Availability; micro-kernel systems don't provide what people need.
I would argue that with more cores available, this is no longer quite as true as it once was. Back when this debate was finalized, one core was the de facto standard for the majority of computers. Micro kernels took a HUGE hit when running on a single core. If the core operating system stayed on a single core and managed running processes on other cores, I suspect a lot of the latency can be avoided in relation to individual processes.
Making a movie for women isn't sexist. It doesn't hurt men.
The book was not sexist. Why do you give a free pass to anti-male stuff and call it "for women"?
The book was a story with a female as the protagonist. It was a great story. It was neither for males nor females. It was just a story that was very interesting. Why bring identity politics into it?
I am a white male. I do not see a story about a white male and think to myself, "This must be a great book that appeals to me.", so why was a story about a white female spun as a story that appeals to women? It makes no sense.
I read the book, A Wrinkle in Time, when I was a kid. I loved the book. I thought it was awesome. I did not see the movie; although I wanted to. If it is not a re-creation of the book, but rather a sexist screed, should they be surprised that it failed where the book succeeded? Seriously, the book was awesome. WTF people?
If you do not need to worry about basic life security, then NOTHING is desperate. It can be intense, but perhaps we have different understandings of the word "desperate". Not a huge deal. To me, desperation is when there is no room in you for anything else other than what is at hand. Like when you are drowning or something.
The SEC takes maniuplating (sic) stock prices very seriously.
Apparently, they don't. The short sellers seem to be going to great lengths to manipulate the price and we even know some of their names... and the SEC is doing nothing about it.
I wouldn't say that the ladder has been pulled up. I would say that they have no resources to leave their kids because someone else sucked up all the wealth.
The vacuuming of wealth was planned out 70+ years ago. It was obvious that with a "boom" in babies that some time later, medical services would be the "best" way to siphon huge amounts of wealth away from the populace. That is why our health system is so fucked up. The harvesting is almost done, but I have no idea what is going to be done with such vast wealth being kept out of circulation.
It is most desirable to have people independently motivated and capitalism is how that can be best achieved considering our knowledge of human nature and economic systems. The real problem is that what America has right now is not capitalism. It may have been capitalism in the past, but at some point, everything consolidated into too few owners and now, America is paying the price for that.
Capitalism is the best way to handle things considering our knowledge and nature; however, it MUST be managed properly. It has not even been managed at all. A reset WILL come soonish. Hopefully it is not extremely bloody, but I think it will be. *sigh*
I am curious about how other age ranges feel about capitalism right now too.
The funny thing is that capitalism is still the best method for managing resources since the inputs and outputs are decentralized; however, once everything gets centralized like it is right now, I would have to ask if it is really capitalism or if it has morphed into something else.
TL;DR, asking today's youth about capitalism is absurd since we do not really have capitalism right now. Maybe a form of corporate fascism since companies seem to be able to buy laws with impunity.
Trump is not the driver behind this, he just happens to be the sitting president while US Space Command is trying to become its own branch. This not being forced from the top, it is being pushed from US Space Command itself. The US Air Force is the precedent they are following. The US Air Force used to be part of the Army.
Not that I am saying there should be a Space Force.

To be honest, I am not even entertained by all of this drama. The manipulators should be taken out back to the chemical sheds and shot. I am glad that their lives revolve around something that satisfies them but I am unhappy that such business requires corrupting simple efforts of producing useful goods.

If a hacked client can ruin other clients' games, then the online game is severely ill-designed.
If only it were that simple. Yes, many games are poorly designed. No, even the best designs will have issues with ill-behaved clients.

If men's clothing were truly about function and not form them in hot weather men world wear dresses made of burlap and covered in pockets.
You mean like they wear in the Middle East? Well, it is not burlap, but that is because burlap is itchy and uncomfortable.

This is very clearly a case of a worker's market. HR and others have been used to it being an employer's market, for years.
It is easy to prove that statement to be false: If it were a worker's market, wages would be going up.
Something else is causing this. I have no idea what.
