You are comparing 2 completely different cases. A case where some guys where making random comments with sexual connotation not personally directed at some over the head woman that happen to be in a bad day and posted the guys picture with some comments attributed to them for al the world to see. VS. Someone that was clearly harassed by receiving sexually explicit pictures personally directed at her at her private email.
Unless the women that loves me is Virgin Mary herself, I would expect her to have no problem hearing mentions of sexual intercourse, or any kind of sexual body parts.
I can face the horror of any man that is in love with a female doctor tough, carying the burden of his loved one having to face the mention of body parts related to sex for the rest of her - surely - very miserable life. Oh the humanity.
Thanks to some bright minds - from the past I bet, cause now-a-days intelligence seems to be lacking in European politicians - that for several reasons this kind of stuff can't happen in Europe. 1st because that Adria Richards prick couldn't take my picture without my consent and post it, even in a public space in this way, 2nd because free speech comes before any kind of joke and it would be against the law to fired someone without a just-cause.
It was whoever that posted that ridiculous Tweet that deserved to be fired for not respecting those guys privacy and posting their picture like that. How do you even know she isn't some nut job making that up?
And so what if they made jokes with a sexual connotation? The jokes where not personal or even something offensive... unless if you are some nut-job for whom the very mention of sex is offensive.
Get a grip on reality Adria Richards you should be ashamed for being a prick and getting 2 guys fired just because you have some puritan social disabilities.
I was obviously talking about the News category, not the overall shop. As an example, the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 17th, 18th apps in my local App Store, are all RSS readers.
WikiLeaks would not have been able to post the unedited cables, as it ultimately did, heedless of the risk to human rights advocates, dissidents and informants named therein.
Either if the poster is a troll, has political motives or is just ignorant of the facts I cannot say. What I can say, is that, there are no unedited cables in the open the cables where edited to remove the names and only 3 names came out to the public, for reasons explained by the WikiLeaks team.
He doesn't say that bicycles produce more CO2 than cars, he says that:
Drivers pay road tax to cover the costs of roads, including bike lanes, why shouldn't bikes pay some of this?
Cycling increases your respiration rate so produces more CO2 than not cycling.
Then start taxing those awful anti patriotic people that walk around, cause you know, they have pass-walks in the cities as well, and well, in case it's too complicated for you to understand, they actually "waste" more CO2 to move the same distance then someone riding a bicycle.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_performance
Why do you try so hard to keep "your" net just for you, it's not like you are going to "run out" of it? I mean if it's really a big dent in your monthly budget just go to the guy and suggest to share its cost, if it's not, then just let him leech it, what the big problem with it?
Just set up an alternate network with a different name, unprotected or with the password in it's name and a QoS that prioritizes the network you use for yourself all the time, and let the other people use what's left... you aren't loosing anything.
P.S. Wasting the police time with this is just ridiculous... but perhaps that's cultural thing for me.
You see; Mozart, Beethoven, Dante Aguilleri, Luis de Camoes, Virgil, Bach, Rimsky-Korsakov, Shakespeare, not to mention the obvious and all the plastic artists who still now-a-days are not able to sell copies of their labour, never survived by making something, copying basically for free, and selling it.
Art has a whole survived quite well for countless generations without copyright profits, in fact - in my opinion - it survived better than these days, where any mediocre writer can make a mediocre job and by luck/marketing for idiot people have their mediocre piece shoved down our throats everywhere we deem to look.
A truly good artist should make art for the sake of art, not for the sake of profit or even to earn a living. Those are the works that will be remembered in 1000 years, and not some Twilight crap. If your brother only wants a job to gain some money, there are lots of opportunities out there that don't need art to suffer for it.
Graphs and charts, that brilliant and extremely high demanding tech from the XV century, that still didn't manage to be available to author of the study.
Sure, just like they have told our ancestors in the beginning of the agricultural revolution and the industrial revolution.
People will have a comfortable life with plenty of time to do creative work not when we have machines working for us, but only if there is a fair distribution of wealth.
Virtual currencies could have a "negative impact on the reputation of central banks."
Judging by the economic situation in Europe, I think it's more accurate to say: "Central banks could have a "negative impact on the reputation of central banks."
Not only that, but people here, hardly go bankrupt to fight a stupid claim in the tribunal.
That's the serious problem in USA. Even if you are right and the law is on your side, you still have abandon your work because you simply don't have enough money to fight a big corporation in the courts. Talk about "liberty and justice for all".
Guess what. I bet that if you cut your son's penis completely, the risk that they contract HIV or any other disease will drop by a great percentage. More, I absolutely guarantee you, that if you cut your son's penis today, we will not have penile cancer, ever! Guaranteed or your money back!
I hope you do realise that in some centuries, everyone will look back at us and state that this is a barbaric act of religious zealotry, just like we do about so many things in mankind's history.
Of course, male circumcision, which correctly and medically expressed can very well be called, male genital mutilation, it's good, because we do it, so we'll keep getting some obscure excuses to it. Like a $300 buck excuse.
Now, female circumcision, which we call genital mutilation but it's also called by that term (yes, I know it's much worst than male circumcision, I'm not stupid) it's barbaric because it's the others (some Islamic fundamentalists) that do it.
In 20 years, the rest of the world will not have to be afraid that he USA invades them because of their oil / rare earth metals / different political ideology / atheist beliefs anymore, since the Americans will either be too dumb or too fat to pose a threat to the rest of the world.
Assange had sex with a woman while she slept. Sex without consent is rape.
Let me fix that for you: Assange had sex with a woman while she slept naked next to him the morning after they banged together all night. Lack of morning erection can now-a-days be treated with Viagra.
And I let my rapist walk me back to my f***ing car and waited for him while he peed on the street. Have you never heard of "shock" before?
Trying not to sound insensitive, but looks that you are trying to get some revenge towards men for what happened to you personally in the rest of the world.
Did you knew your rapist before? Did you have consensual sex with him several times before? Where you sleeping naked next to him after having sex the night before in the morning he "raped" you?
No, well, than what does this even have to do with the Assange case? Yes, then, well that wasn't rape, just morning after regret when you knew the guy was screw%$% some other girl as well, and you where not the sole lover to the, cite from the "victims" own words after the "rape" took place: "the coolest person in the world".

I don't know how to check the sale numbers. But, I forgot to mention, these are the paid apps, although in the free category there are some as well.
I was obviously talking about the News category, not the overall shop. As an example, the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 17th, 18th apps in my local App Store, are all RSS readers.
most people on planet earth have never heard of RSS and don't use it. sad but tru.
That goes against all evidence presented by the fact that RSS readers are constantly on the top downloaded apps in Apple's App Store.

Next time you walk somewhere and use a walkway, please ask the state to pay them a smaller tax for it.

NASA found vestiges of running water in the past in Mars!
For the 10th time since the 90's but who's counting.
BTW, when is the annual budget voted again?
Sure, just like they have told our ancestors in the beginning of the agricultural revolution and the industrial revolution.

Italy, the country where scientists got to jail and mobsters are free to roam around.

Seriously, come and live in a free country, like somewhere in the European Union.
