UK is a maritime nation, we can't allow bandits interrupt maritime shipping routes and commerce. Piracy on the high seas should be punished with a stiff jail time. They used to hang for that, so 10 years is rather civilized.
Today I expanded YouTube comments section to social network. Tomorrow I will make it mandatory to use to access any other Google service. This is all as planned, and I will finally succeed into turning Internet into private hell that is Youtube comments section.
Really, what the fuck? 10 years ago if I suggested that everyone get a device that always tracks your location and reports it to me, I'd probably end up on sex offenders lists and all kind of other bad lists. Now this?
It was also not mentioned, that oppressive white cis patriarchy established society that unfairly exploited women and now to bring it back to historical equality the society must actively discriminate against all males. We should probably just put all men into re-education camps away from children, because why won't you think of the children?!
Don't blame Slashdot for SJW plague, we didn't create or support them./. is all-inclusive community where anyone can speak, this means that even SJW must be tolerated. Unlike them, I wouldn't have it any other way.
You have to account to how younger generations communicate and consume media. For a large number of people Twitter + Facebook would account for nearly 100% of news and speech related activities. As such, it becomes trivially easy to censor and fail to inform without running into any traditional safeguards designed to protect free speech and journalism.
Except none of those things have altered the human being.
While I can't speak for you, I am an anatomically correct modern human - largely hairless, with large cranium, and a digestive system capable of processing grains.
Unfortunately, any kind of evolution is an adversarial process. For example, people who weren't somewhat resistant to plagues were left behind. So far, super-rich are the same species as the rest of us, so their success in gene editing will also be humanity's success.
We do not have the wisdom, let alone the knowledge, to be directly editing out genome.
FUD.
Trial and error served humanity well up to this point, there is no reason to expect that it won't work in this case.
Humanity survival depends on us becoming recursive and self-correcting, as environmental pressures that drove evolution up to this point are addressed/mitigated. Alternatively, our future is Idiocracy of breeders - whoever can push out most babies and consume most food will inherit the earth.
If I were in charge of K2 civilization, I'd send self-assembling AI on all bands. This way once primitives throw some computational power at it trying to analyze the signal they get pwned and subjugated into building more broadcasters.
The same reason people drive Prius, to appear to Do Something without actually putting any consideration or effort into it. When instead they should properly insulate their house, optimize air ducts to channel cold air to where it is needed most and maybe, depending on local climate, install some solar panels.

Yes, but US allowed crazy damages in similar cases. So while no jail time, bankruptcy is still on the table.

Dear Screwtape,
Today I expanded YouTube comments section to social network. Tomorrow I will make it mandatory to use to access any other Google service. This is all as planned, and I will finally succeed into turning Internet into private hell that is Youtube comments section.

I really liked Samsung printers.
The real point is to pressure Apple into giving money to some advocacy groups.
Please keep your mansplaining microagressions to yourself and check your privilege before stating the facts.

Yes, lets all diagnose someone via an OPEN INTERNET SURVEY.
The only valid internet diagnose is cancer, so they are not even doing that right.
After watching every season of House I can tell you one thing though: it's never lupus.
I think the Internet could agree on 'not lupus, maybe cancer' Hillary's diagnose.
We must accept that it's time for Western Civilization to take a back seat.
Make us. Before you try, remember that we still have biggest sticks.
In that case I agree with you. I misunderstood what you included in the definition of media in your original post.

This has no place on slashdot.
100% agree. What were editors thinking? What next, AMA with Trump?

I am willing to bet most won't rent to a group of teenagers, and it isn't because of ageism.
I don't think they will have any luck with cajoling people into abandoning basic risk management when it comes to renting their property.
If you test a system without permission, you are breaking the law. It does not matter if you exploit any vulnerabilities or not.
Good thing black hats always ask permission before compromising web sites.
Nothing gets fixed unless someone somewhere gets embarrassed.
Oh look, another fucktard who can't see past his own nose.
The irony of trying to lecture others on wisdom in this way is probably lost on you.

It's plug and play. It should just work.
Not if it runs Linux.
some people seem to take a dislike to people who Do Something like driving a Prius, I'm not sure why.
Usually, Do Something is limited to driving a Prius (and maybe ordering free trade lates) but it always comes with self-righteousness set to 11.
The same reason people drive Prius, to appear to Do Something without actually putting any consideration or effort into it.

I've not managed to get one pregnant yet.
Try mounting it after you update drivers.
