You seem to be living in the fantasy world that everyone is strong and should be able to take punishment.
Take this to the logical conclusion and you lose free speech. Say that God doesn't exist and you might upset a theist. Say that "honour killings" are wrong and you might be insulting Muhammad, which we all know justifies violence.
Both are just wrong, but the first one is more so because it carries social prejudice along with it.
No, it's not. The social prejudice is unrelated to the wrongness of secretly filming someone. The existence of the social prejudice may be wrong, but it is not any individual's fault that it exists. And by extension, individuals shouldn't be punished for society's ills.
Absolutely. I see no reason why it would be worse to film someone with a member of the same sex or opposite - both are gross invasions of privacy.
This "tradition" is almost as savage as the Taliban's treatment of women. This state of affairs saddens me very much.
"Almost" is not appropriate here. Orthodox Jews don't rape nine-year olds, kidnap girls of other religions, stone rape victims to death for adultery, etc. A backward prachice? Yes. Savage like Islam? No.
German cars? You mean like the BMW One Series that's oh so popular in the UK but were a common site completely failing to get up anything more than a horizontal plane when the tiniest bit of snow fell with their excuse being "Oh you need snow tyres" whilst the Jaguar and Land Rover drivers just drove on past them with their normal tyres chuckling to themselves?
Or perhaps they should've gone for lovely Japanese Toyotas, because it's not like Toyota has ever had any recalls or anything.
I live in a posh neighbourhood, and a lot of people have BMWs. One chap bucks the trend by driving a tiny little Fiat Panda 4x4. last winter a lot of BMWs failed to make it up the hill out of our estate. This guy doesn't even clear his driveway, he just drives out. I felt really glad that he had his day! ,br>
In winter rear wheel drive really sucks.
a 24 hour analogue watch, which gives you an interesting perspective on the full day - and defies others to tell the time quickly as all the "angles" are different.
I always thought that this binary display watch is a rather novel way to spray your geek scent on. It is also fairly styilish and not too loud in design - the LEDs only come on when you press a button.
I was thinking of one of those - but come on, what geek would use 12 hour time?
Most routers/web tv boxes/digital photo frames/wifi dildos come with trivial exploits. People sell things configured to work "out of the box", allowing you to configure them securely if needed. If they didn't they would get a lot of returns and support calls from people who didn't read the manual.
Yup. Trying to convince someone that there was an obscure serial killer who lived and died 100 years ago is a lot different than trying to convince people that, say, a leading national figure is Muslim.
You mean "is a lot different than trying to convince people that, say, a leading national figure follows a cult started by an obscure serial killer who lived and died 1000+ years ago".
as fossil fuel prices go up, as they must eventually. Of course, a rise in fossil fuel costs will cause a rise in manufacturing and transport costs for renewable energy generating equipment as well.
I can't work out whether that is a good argument for investing in renewables now, while the cost is low, or waiting until the cost differential justifies it.
we can reasonably expect to be baked to a crisp at any given moment.
If you take it in the terms of as personal survival then its probably not significant - chances of being killed on the road, struck by lightning, or murdered are probably much higher. If you value humanity living for as long as possible or eventually reaching the stars this is probably a bumber.
Pharmaceuticals would still be in clinical trials when their patents would expire. How about we just focus on getting rid of bad patents that don't bring knowledge or insight to society?
Ho about making it 5 years from the first time the product hits the market - with the 25 years form filing still standing as a limit to avoid ideas being "locked up". "Hits the market" would either be by the patent holder or a licensed product.

Do you think this troll is a competitor, trying to make us all hate MyFuckingCleanPc?

You don't agree that they should be able to control themselves?
But if they control themselves they might think that they are better than us.

Can anyone prove this wrong?
Apparently not.
In fact my cat has just told me that its positively correct.
Actually, anyone who electrocutes animals *is* a douchebag.
And anyone who slits their throats without stunning them is a double douchebag.
They are fooled if you wear flowers in your hair
Islam is about blocking images while actual murder and rape of non-muslims is seen as fine.
Good luck going to war against China.
Somehow I don't think that if Britain went to war with China the inability to build landrovers would be the deciding factor.

Saves energy by not bothering to get things right!
They should name this chip "The Latino".
You just deprived someone of their +5 Funny, you bastard.
My computer makes it a +4.7 funny.

I never heard anybody claimed Romney was a Muslim. Plenty have claimed that you're a fucking imbecile though.
I meant those "Obama is a Muslim" lot - not Romney

I use the Glasgow Subway you insensitive clod. Now I feel that I am outside the normal rules of nature!
boolean function rangeCheck(
const int value,
const int min,
const int max)
{
return ( (min = value) && (value = max) );
}
If value is a constant, then the whole thing can be computed at compile time.
I think you have a problem with assignments to constants! Are you an Oracle plant trying to show that it is "not obvious"?

I think they would want to sell a 2012 Sonic, which replaced the Aveo.
Isn't that a hedgehog?

This is one of those apps where the "help" instructions are more complicated than going in and using it.
