I am actually very anti-SJW, as I see it as mostly tribal virtue signaling and thrill-seeking brigading. You on other hand appear to be engaged in the tribal mentality and already categorized me as belonging to the 'other tribe'.
To answer your question directly - yes, definitely. As someone pointed out to me very recently, in absolute numbers there are a lot more poor disadvantaged white males than oppressed racial minorities. If you buy into that narrative.
Humans are not rational beings, even if she was not in fact victimized/discriminated against, she still can experience negative feelings of being victimized. I can see other people's point of view that social support should be unconditional regardless of actual facts. Such support should be victim-focused, since it lacks actual perpetrator (or more accurately, it is self-inflicted).
Regardless, my primary concern is that we don't conflate social mores and actual laws. Similarly to how we try to adhere to separation of state and religion, we should adhere to separation of state and social-moral justice.
I have some bad news for you - entire space (and that presently includes Mars) is highly radioactive due to emissions from the stars. One nuke or a hundred won't make a dent in that and won't even come close to what Sun already emits toward Mars.
Lets assume that somehow jury got it 100% wrong and there was a clear case of gender discrimination. Then you have a point. Thing is, such premise should be questioned if you intend to ask the government to forcibly intervene via courts. I would go as far as saying that 12 jurors, who heard the case, deliberated and reached conclusion are a lot more likely to be right than wrong.
Thing is, the law and social justice mores diverge quite a bit. She might have a case if you use such imprecise and support-focused standard, and encouraged by the social media support she failed to check her expectations and misjudged the merits of the case when a much more objective approach was applied. That is, when facts were impartially evaluated instead of relying on her narrative and interpretation, the case was found without merit. This doesn't mean that she didn't felt discriminated, and should be denied all support. It does mean that such support should not include any coercion by the government entity.
Dropping the suit is playing right in to the "it's too hard to fight" theme.
Surely if she wants to actively fight gender discrimination she should push it as long as she can.
The jury disagreed with your premise that there ever was gender discrimination in this specific case. Just like you can't cure cancer if there is no cancer, you can't fight gender discrimination when incompetent employee was fired for a cause.
Instead of cracking the slow bcrypt hashes directly, which is the hot topic at the moment, we took a more efficient approach and simply attacked the md5(lc($username).”::”.lc($pass)) and md5(lc($username).”::”.lc($pass).”:”.lc($email).”:73@^bhhs&#@&^@8@*$”) tokens instead. Having cracked the token, we simply then had to case correct it against its bcrypt counterpart.
Congratulations, you found one example where it is difficult to repair something. Still, even turbochargers, can and do get rebuilt. While manufacturer would like you to spend thousands for a new part, the economical thing is to take old part and send it out to a specialized shop to rebuild. There are specialists rewinding alternators, machining heads, rebuilding compressors and turbos, recoring radiators (rare now), painting gas tanks, sleeving blocks and so on. Pretty much anything can be repaired, unless auto manufacturer took steps to make it impossible (or uneconomical).
If your car analogy post was a car, it would be a messy high-speed wreck wrapped around a tree.
Modern cars suffer from the same problem electronic gadgets are - manufacturers intentionally making it harder to work on them. Any car is modular - you have individual components that make a whole, and there is no reason why any of these components couldn't be taken out and replaced. You have bolt-on components like alternators, exhaust, AC compressor, radiator, struts... and you have integrated components like valves, chassis, seals. It should be obvious that bolt-on components should be interchangeable, but so should integrated components. For example, you ought not to have to "activate" or "genuine OEM part" an alternator, because there is absolutely no legitimate reason for this.
Exactly! I'd never clone myself, unless terminally ill, for this exact reason. It is all but guaranteed that I'd attempt to off other myself and assume the identity. It would escalate from there...
Since the use of dogs is getting push-back in courts, this is the new police invention to sidestep probable cause. Especially considering how easy it is to have a discrete device to create on-demand red flag.
I would buy the best politicians my money can afford, converting some of my money into power. Then I'd use this power and money to push humanity to the stars. I don't care who does it - Musk, NASA, or someone else. We are going there and beyond and/or die trying. I'd also be on one of the first flights out.
Why? Because nobody remembers the person who bankrolled Christopher Columbus.

Barbarians at the gate are technically warriors, so the SJW label is appropriate.

Is this technology is based on their toner cartridge designs? Because every time I try to print, they seem to self-destruct on command.

It is still there, vulnerabilities and all, and they are still using it to collect information about you.
Can any company be trusted?
No, but how likely is your compromised smart TV is going to be used to kill you?
This glacial speed of fixing critical bugs demonstrates that automotive industry cannot be trusted with networking anything.

Stop age-shaming and check your young privilege! I am a victim of persecution, anything you say that disagrees with me is invalid!

Well here is Forbes article criticizing Metal Gear Solid. Seems very reasonable to me.
I think it is only gaming journalism that couldn't be trusted to be objective, mainstream media doing just fine.
