Before you try and take the high road and berate me for my potty mouth, check your own sig. It uses the same naughty word.
As for my political discourse, re-read our little thread here and check for YOURSELF the reasons I do not support Clinton. If you see anything about gender, race, religion, age or any other irrelevant measure of worth being used as a basis for my political choices, please come back and let me know. My mention of Clinton's gender was -ONLY- in response to some shitstain (there's that potty mouth of mine again) saying slashdotters hate Clinton because they're misogynists. Now that same turd has the audacity to say that -I- am lowering the bar?
You sir or ma'am (whichever is appropriate) are masterful at the arts of hypocrisy and flamebaiting.
The PC thing was a joke, in fact I even -SAID SO- in case any shitstains with attitudes couldn't find their sense of humor. I underestimated the possible shitstain level by an order of magnitude it seems.
Now let's get to what you ACTUALLY SAID...
Slashdot: News for Nerds. With an Undercurrent of Misogyny.
I bet most of the basement-dwelling, high school students here don't even know why they hate Clinton; other than their mommy didn't buy them a new Alienware computer for Christmas. What about this lame ass generalization makes me think you're talking to the parent and not to me? What part of your trite little attack on slashdotters who don't masturbate to the thought of another Clinton presidency ISN'T an absurd wholesale derogatory overgeneraliztion? What part had ANY meaningful dialog, or any useful information?
Nothing.
You said exactly nothing of value and you said it in the most obnoxious way possible. Next time just take a big shit on the keyboard, it'll accomplish the same thing as your posts with the added bonus of lightening your load a bit.
Well since you're being cute, I suppose it would be the 'assault a cop' policy. I also support her 'kill puppies' and 'genetically engineer a pirate-ninja' policies.
If my -ONE- vote is stolen, it's a crime, and the person responsible is a criminal. If YOUR -ONE- vote was stolen, you'd be in a red-faced hissy-fit about it, and would then understand that it was a crime.
You're not nearly important enough to decide what level of fraud is considered crime, ESPECIALLY voter fraud. How many votes lost DOES matter? Can they all be from the same candidate's voter pool? (you've answered affirmative on that already) Does it only matter if the votes would have gone to YOUR candidate? I suspect that's the case. People willing to toss out other's votes are usually very 'morally flexible' when it comes to OTHER candidates, but quite rigid when it comes to their own.
Hey there! Excellent troll you have there, calling people bigots while dismissing them with the old (moldy) basement dwelling slashdot crowd stereotype. Beautiful.
Anyways, as a strong supporter of Hillary bashing, I must point out to you that it has nothing to do with her vagina, or even her lack of penis. I refuse to support her because she's Republican Light (and just like Light cigarettes there is sad little truth to the 'Light' label, other than what they 'taste' like). I'm tired of the same ole' war-mongering, free(to starve)market, free(from employment)trade conservative lies. That's all she offers up, so she's just another (R) hiding behind a (D).
Oh, and by the way, the campaign -I- am likely to support when the time comes: Cynthia McKinney. Read the name carefully and then shove that 'Misogyny' crap where it goes. And if any Obama supporters want to call me a racist (though they don't seem to do that very often, probably because it would be stupid), tap google for a picture.
Yep, a black woman. I guess I'm more PC than the rest of you *pppbbbttt*
Heh, j/k, her policies are what matter, not her reproductive organs or her skin tone. I like them, and maybe the rest of you would too, check her out. http://www.runcynthiarun.org/
Give me my fiber, I've already paid for it. They have my money, give me my services. I'm not asking for a handout, I want what I paid for. THEY however seem to regard my diligent payments as some sort of *gasp* hand-out.
Hypocritical foolishness of the highest order. Socialism for the rich, dog-eat-dog for those of us that don't deserve such luscious gigadollar treats.
Awww hell, messed that up, try again.... all your madir are belong to us... Stupid rules of grammar flirting through my neurons, making me to things its way...
How this person FEELS about being in the middle of voter fraud doesn't add one iota of meaningful information into the discussion.
Basically (from only the clip you posted, I didn't read the whole article you linked to) you're saying that the person who got caught involved in stealing a diamond necklace (not as valuable as democracy mind you, but it's good enough for analogy) is really really upset about the negative attention she's getting. Well, sorry (not really), but that's what happens when you get caught up in a crime like this. It would be irrelevant if she were to claim that it was a 'mistake' and that she (or her friend) just forgot to pay for it after she put it in her pocket, the damage was done.
My question is, why the attitude toward "true believers" (I assume a reference to a Ron Paul supporter, which I'm not BTW) when they clearly have valid proof of vote-miscounting, whether intentional or accidental? Is losing votes just not something that's important to you, and seems so trivial as to be dismissed as irrelevant?
You're assuming these little buggers are running a 'programmed' type thought process, which I don't think is true.
The little devils will know nothing of variables, declarations or anything in the sphere of programming, all they know is voltage levels, pulse widths and how those things make them FEEL... Just like you and me.
They don't think in logical blocks, they are matrices of discrete values interacting.... just like your brain. This whole meme of 'AI as a logical thought machine' MAY be rue someday, but the first real AIs won't use that system, they will be remarkably like us in brain design, replacing our biological neurons with electronic ones, but they work in the SAME WAY. Yes Virginia, your Beowulf cluster CAN fee anger...
BTW, this little nugget of wisdom also dashes the hopes people have of installing 'Asimov circuits' or whatever. The closest we'll be able to come is overclocked-brainwash^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hhigh-speed supervised training.
So, in other words, it's not their logic we have to worry about, it's their PASSIONS. And that is the spooky thought of the day.
This is exactly why I feel we need 2 major leagues in most sports, an possibly 2 separate Olympic competitions. One for unaugmented humans the other for augmented humans. Let this guy compete against a Ben Johnson (I think that was his name, not gonna google it) who likes the steroids and EPO. Even better, let him juice up on EPO (I think steroids would be a bit of a waste on this guy, he just needs to maximize oxygen flow to the existing muscles) and fuel his engine that pumps those custom-designed fast-as-possible titanium legs...
*shrugs* I think plenty of people would still watch the 'natural' people play, at least enough to keep it profitable. The 'superhuman' league however would probably start topping Hollywood for our entertainment dollars. I know -I'LL- tune into chemo-cyborg overlords knocking each other around on a football field, and I don't even watch sports. If this catches on where rugby is popular, that'd be really exciting, and possibly lethal, but that's what waivers are for...
The only way it makes sense is if the wire you'd be using in place of the wireless runs straight to the people you're most worried about snooping your connection. At least with wireless they'd have to be in some sort of physical proximity instead of conveniently having all your packets dropped right on their doorstep.
Slashdot Mirror
Erm, wouldn't that mean, at least according to the Genesis account of humans appearing, creationist's heads are filled with dust?
Next time, do a quick 'can this be turned around on me' check before you troll.
Cuz we all know that REAL scientists dismiss out of hand anything they don't already understand and expect?
Cuz we all know that REAL scientists immediately understand something the moment they lay eyes on in?
Cuz you assume that the "prof." got scammed and is foolish for even entertaining the idea someone might have come up with something new?
Seriously, I don't get it, what part makes him a jackass?
Thank you.
I've tried to explain exactly that to a few people, but the addition of your Sun/Earth model makes your explanation crisp and concise.
*sigh*

Well, Anonymous Coward, we've already paid for it, let the professionals we've paid to do so build the damn thing.

To quote the GP: Pioneer had a professional magneto-optical video disk recorder... Nothing 'tape' about a MO video disk.
And quit being so damn snotty, it's uncalled for.

Why do you "think not"?
The setup parent described sounded just hunky-dory for what you're asking it to do.
No, but that -IS- the correct reaction when said neighbor starts waving his gun in your direction threateningly.
"...here there be tech support"
Awww hell, messed that up, try again. ... ...
all your madir are belong to us
Stupid rules of grammar flirting through my neurons, making me to things its way...
All your Madirs are belong to us? :-D
That's not information, it's emotional pandering.
How this person FEELS about being in the middle of voter fraud doesn't add one iota of meaningful information into the discussion.

Forget to tick that anonymous checkbox there, bigot?
Makes me proud to say that you were already on my foes list before you slipped up and let your hood show in public.
LOL, I'm sorry, but I must say, your post seemed to me a little like this:
'The blade on ole' Excalibur here is a bit scuffed, and just before I go battle the Green Knight (read: RIAA, Microsoft, whatever)'
'Well, here, try this Ginsu knife!'
Your solution is funny, but just not effective.
You're assuming these little buggers are running a 'programmed' type thought process, which I don't think is true.

I don't this it's a sense of humor that's making shit like that funny for you. It's probably a tumor.
Simple recursion.
The truth of the matter is though, when you get down to the core he's all anus.
Alright, but I want my $20 million up front AND 10% of the gross income.
This is exactly why I feel we need 2 major leagues in most sports, an possibly 2 separate Olympic competitions. One for unaugmented humans the other for augmented humans.

Seems silly doesn't it?
