  1. What does visual depictions of naked bodies have to do with 'sex being a natural thing'? Deification is a natural thing, but people would find it strange to watch films made with cameras under the rim of the toilet seat. Most people expect and do have sexual relations as a normal part of their life. They don't necessarily spend a lot of time watching films of other people having sex.

  2. My wife plays Roller Coaster Tycoon, and she delights in picking unhappy park customers up with the pincers and drowning them in the pond.

  3. The first real cyclist you hit will be a messy experience, and it will probably screw up your vehicle enough that it will be the only cyclist you hit.

  4. They're not supposed to avoid dupes. They're supposed to avoid dupes that didn't get a big enough hit count.

  5. I have heard gamers claim that. I've also heard people with actual experience in the military say it's really rare.

  6. The school shooters are also cold blooded sociopaths, shooting defenseless children. Nothing in a 'combat' game is like that. I suppose one could drop out of the quest track of the game, find a farm and just shoot the pigs or the chickens,

  7. You're expecting? Let's hope the little brat is nothing like his father.

    I'm not sure why this particular kit costs as much as it does and not $45.

    It's not just a Raspberry Pi. It has a $15 keyboard, a cheap plastic case and even comes with two stickers! That's why Adafruit jacked the price up to $149.95!

    Carriage return is a line break formatting technique, you fool.

    The way that I pontificate safely here is to tick the 'no karma bonus' by default. I could always post with the +1 but I figure that makes it more likely to get modded down and loose 'excellent' rep or whatever they call it. As long as you stay safe 'below the radar' posting at 1 you get enough mods up to make it safe to take some mods down. I would hate to waste time staying conformant to the groupthink on /. Life is too short.

    I wrote a lot of code (for an NEC 4-bit embedded controller, in Assembly Language) using Microsoft Word for MS-DOS, but that was because I had one of the only computers in the company, and it was what I had. It worked fairly well.

    There is no easy bugfix for the systemd malware. You're best off just installing a more correct OS, like one of the BSD unixes.

    You can install Emacs on a Classic Mac running classic MacOS, then open a shell window and be at the command line on your Mac. You can even traverse directories and use the built in ls command and what-not.

    I prefer vi, which is available by default on a new NetBSD install. You can roll out the install and then jump in and edit /etc/rc.d/rc.conf in a few minutes and your system is up and configured.

    You learn how to use vi in a few minutes, and then you have the tool you need for a lifetime. Unfortunately there are crap systems where there isn't even a real vi binary and it's aliased to some other crap.

  16. When I was in High School there was a courtyard (open air space area within the school) where students were allowed to smoke.

  17. They burned an old farmhouse less than ten miles from me here because it was a heavily contaminated meth site.

  18. Fundamentalist Christianity is hard to escape from, when you are raised in it.

    Definitely. My wife was raised Pentacostal, and she has almost entirely broken from that faith/affliction. She has an irrational hate of the music of The Beatles though. My theory is that some heavy-duty Beatles-hating went on in her youth.

  19. Lots of younger people know they are really, really smart. Some survive the condition and become older.

  20. The dumped waste from meth labs can be very very toxic. Sometimes when a meth lab operation takes place in an old farmhouse in the country, the house, when discovered, is so contaminated that the authorities burn it down.

    And there are warnings to people who are out trekking around in the countryside in areas where meth production is a problem: if you find a dump area with a lot of 5 gallon pails, etc. it might be a good idea to stay away from it.

  21. Being a Community Leader involves charisma, and often people with religious faith seek to become leaders in their communities. It has nothing to do with 'expertise' and it's sort of scary to think that some entity would assign the 'credentials' that allow a person to become a community leader.

    Well, in some countries in the past, there have been groups like the Communist Party that granted that sort of credentials. Didn't always work out that well, tho.

  22. Whoops, on reflection, it sounds like he was contaminated in Florida and allowed to leave the state.

  23. The fact that he was from Wisconsin just demonstrates what kind of people Florida attracts.

    It's actually a good thing, because it keeps them down there where it doesn't matter what happens.

  24. It's a bug in Apple's software. There is a checkbox fix buried down in the layers on Apple gadgets to turn the bug off.
