    Really, there is going to be a point when no one will loan us more money.
    There's an obvious solution to that: what has your country (assuming it's America) been spending lots of that money on?

    passe != "once popular". when i was a kid i recall getting things like "mcdonalds bucks" from cheap relatives
    No, that practice was never popular. Perhaps you used to get crap presents because you weren't either?

    The site owner should not be responsible for checking that all search engines are not stealing content
    The webmaster, however, should be responsible for having a fucking clue(tm) how the web works, such as what the robots.txt file. If he doesn't he's a 'tard, they should get rid of him and employ someone else. It's not like there's a a shortage.

    And indexing is not stealing content. Stop exaggerating, you hysterical ninny.

    The real fact is that HB1's and LB1's are for an adult to take a position.
    No, the real fact is that an HB1 is a moderateley soft pencil.

    To some extent, the job market is what people perceive it to be.
    To some extent, the force of gravity is what people perceive it to be. In cartoons.

    I know a couple of girls who came to this country to study interior designing [...] this further reduces the number of ppl that can be hired in professions like software, ece etc.
    Sometime in the late 90s I heard as a rumour circulating that the whole H1 quota was gone a few months into the year because it had been taken up by Rumanian porn stars and similar trollops. Might have been an urban myth, though.

    I don't care how bad the job market is, I will never, ever work for a force who will be used to invade small, third-world nations.
    Just as well you're not French, then.

    If you're going to drink cheap Scotch (or indeed low-grade hooch of any kind) the simplest and most effective way to lose the manky taste is surely this.

    The guy flipping you off in this picture [dca.net] then tells you that you are blind drunk and have no taste left. He's substituted gasoline without telling you.
    It would be petrol, not gasoline, as the guy flipping you off is doing so in proper (i.e. British) English.
  11. Re:Speaking of filters... on Hacking Vodka · · Score: 1
    As for drinking it, several cultures (India, Cameroon, Thailand, Japan I know for sure) have traditions regarding drinking unfiltered urine. Not saying it's a good idea though.
    There was some politician - Boutros Boutros Ghali I think- who was famous for it. But maybe he was taking the piss.

    On a similar note, can anyone tell me why many/most/nearly all Germans replace v-sounds with w-sounds when they speak English, despite having every reason to do the exact opposite?
    They're overcorrecting, one assumes.

  14. Re:A company built on patents only? on Tech Giants Bankrolling IP Hoarding Start-Up · · Score: 1
    A company should have a specific and narrowly defined purpose (which was the original intention of the Articles of Incorporation until lawyers came up with the idea of being very generic in those articles). Going outside those defined goals or making them too generic should be illegal
    That's 3M fucked, then.

    And if my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle.
    You're comparing apples and oranges here.
    And every argument you make is hypothetical.
    Language does not exist as an objective reality
    No matter how many people use "it's" as a posessive - sorry other people, I'm sure you do - it isn't correct. It matters not one iota if it becomes the accepted standard in the 2037 OED, here and now it is wrong. Period.
    So, you lose.
    You presume to lecture us on logic and/or metaphysics then resort to proof by assertion. What will you delight us with next? Perhaps an ad-hominem, it's what I'd expect from a stupid twat like you.

    Mainstream language usage determines the accepted meanings of words and phrases.
    Would a "mainstream belief" in the earth being flat determine geographical or geological fact?

    I put it to you, sir, that it would not.
