I think you are a cunt. Does this mean I deserve to be jobless and homeless?
Where do you draw the line between discussing someone (e.g. a cunt such as yourself), engaging in online fantasies regarding the person and actually breaking the law?
You seem to think that with no laws broken, nobody harmed and no actual intent to commit harm that someone should lose their home and wealth?
Why can't a sociopath embrace human society and like people? That doesn't stop them doing nasty things.
I like my small furry creatures in Lemmings. I teach them how to help themselves. They're lovely and cute and so sweet when I tell them to commit suicide, and go, "Oh no!" just before making like fundamentalist muslim.
You don't rewrite 10k loc, you rewrite four of them. It's pretty easy to isolate four lines of code, put extensive testing in place and extract method (or some other refactoring).
You don't need to do that too often to start to see benefits.
What fucking relevance does that have? You appear to have a blind hatred for one individual and the party he represents and lazily ascribe all ill in that direction.
Try not to be a bigot, the world is not red and blue, and there is nuance, subtlety and compromise in most things.
Maybe you dislike this policy. Fine. Tell us why, don't be an ignorant twat going "d'uhbama bad, it's all his fault, we should nuke iran"
As an employee of a large organisation, I want us to have this capability to determine aggressive action against us ahead of it happening.
We lack the ability (legally and technically) to take action against the aggressor; the value comes from being able to strengthen relevant defences, if necessary close off access to vulnerable services and prepare the response teams in case something does get through.
Accurate and responsive systems monitoring lets you there's an issue quickly, so you can resolve it fast. This merely accelerates that resolution.
Given that people on minimum wage get tax credits, benefit from health and education services they can't afford and generally make a net gain from the Government it's pretty clear that they aren't paying an equal share. Someone has to fund all of this and you seem to think it's that tiny pool of people on over £100k.
I'd love to earn that much, but I already make a sizeable net contribution to the government to cover the benefits that lower earners, the disabled, the unfortunate and the feckless get. Taxing the rich more won't reduce that burden and won't intrinsically benefit the economy. I'm already treated as a cash cow by politicians from all parties who use my money to buy votes from parents, pensioners, public sector workers, people on benefits et all.
I'm still confused by your thoughts on pollution. Which pollution is holding back the economy exactly, and what are you proposing to do that will resolve this?
You'd have to raise it a fuck of a long way before it offset tax credits.
Tax the rich more.
The current government raises more tax from the top earners than the previous one. Who do you class as 'rich' anyway? Are you calculating this by assets or income, or both? I think dual-income families are rich.
Raising taxes is a shit way to boost the economy.
Close tax loopholes.
People will find and exploit more. The current government has already closed many, and made it harder to legally exploit the ones that remain - you now need to declare them to the Inland Revenue.
Or did you mean things like Premium Bonds and ISAs?
Put an end to the double Irish.
Again, the current government are already working to increase tax revenue from companies that try and siphon earnings overseas. This is an international problem and if you have a way to solve it that actually works, then HMRC would love to hear from you.
Invest in high quality sustainable housing.
Where? What do you class as 'sustainable'? What's 'affordable'? Surely 'affordable', 'high quality' and 'where people can get a job' are mutually exclusive.
Any capital investment in social housing would largely be a waste of money anyway, unless the 'right to buy' legislation changes; you're just giving cash away. That's not necessarily bad for the economy but it's a kick in the teeth for people that pay taxes and don't get government handouts - and we're already subsidising over half the country anyway.
Deal with pollution.
Hmm. More detail needed.
No crazy spending or crazy borrowing necessary, but the rich and stupid wouldn't like those policies.
Only the stupid would put them forward and think they're workable, without providing rather more detail.
The rich would indeed resent being treated as a cash cow by the lazy, the ignorant and the stupid.
The Tories aren't screwing the poor? You are blind.
How? Maybe I am blind, or maybe I'm not poor because I make personal sacrifices to assure my financial security. Forgive me for expecting other people to make similar compromises.
You come up with an idea and patent it, I get you might not have the money. A company shouldn't be able to do that.
Why not?
Why can't I set up a company whose job is R&D, and earn income from licensing the inventions I come up with. This is surely a sensible choice for people that can't be arsed with supply chain logistics, sales and all the shit that comes with it.
What's different to that in setting up a company that doesn't do R&D, but does purchase rights to the inventions that other people create. Same business but this time we've also cut out the people and facilities management necessary for R&D.
If a patent is legitimate, is innovative, represents a technology advance that people want to copy, then it has value. That value can be realised through licensing or through manufacture. Why should manufacturers be the only people allowed to profit from patents?
I don't give a flying fuck whether Apple are making a product or not. They're attempting to use patents that should never have been granted to prevent other companies from making products, and that is patent trolling.
Sorry but abusive litigation based on facile patents is abusive litigation. Doesn't matter whether it's done to or by Apple, the patents are still complete bullshit and their use for extortion is abuse and needs to be derided.
the Tories austerity policies which are causing stagnation
So you'd have done what? Continued to spend money profligately that we just don't have? Raised taxes to fuck over middle income earners even more? Done a Greece or a Cyprus?
Get a fucking clue.
they do everything possible to widen the wealth divide / screw the poor for every penny they have
That's just bullshit.
If you want to argue that they favour "big business" too much, I'll agree. If you want to challenge the integrity and honesty of senior ministers and how their policies benefit the public, the UK as a whole and their group of friends, then I'm happy to join you. But they're not screwing the poor and they're not trying to increase the wealth divide.
There are plenty of solid reasons to complain about the current government. Try and pick some of them instead of making shit up.
Not particularly. 1.5 million Europeans were also enslaved by Barbary pirates. Much like the rest of human history, slavery has been pretty much prevalent.
If you've been working for 40 years then it's generally a safe assumption that any random other person is probably younger than you, especially online.
Rather than referencing your lawn though you should be highlighting that "We solved that one 30 years ago, why are you reinventing the wheel?"
What the fuck does that have to do with censoring private discussions on the subject that happen to go through the Steam chat client?
I can't say to a friend, "Glad Kickass Torrents got its ass kicked" now without using a different service. Maybe you think that's appropriate but I disagree.
1 - The equivalent Android crap is equivalent to the MS apps, or it wouldn't be equivalent. I'm not commenting on whether the MS apps are crap, but you have just merely suggested that they are better than the crap they're the same as. Luckily the Android ecosystem includes non-crap alternatives too.
2 - Windows Phone has made a mark, and the discerning buyer may choose it over many android devices, but wont choose it over other android devices. Especially if they did choose it the first time
3 - Many manufacturers will support a number of mobile OS, but given that the market leading mobile vendors do not currently offer Windows Phone based devices I can only conclude that you're talking utter bollocks
4 - I haven't used them, so I can only interpret this statement in light of the other things you've said. As your credibility is decidedly lacking, I choose to assume that you're wrong here too
I don't have to hate MS to choose not to use Windows Phone. I don't have to hate MS to dislike bundled software on my computers - handheld or otherwise. I may well choose to use some MS software on my Android phone but it'll be my choice, not the fucking manufacturer's.
Out of curiosity, how much were you paid for your post?
Force someone into a social situation that they don't understand and can't enjoy, cause them stress and trigger negative behaviours? Interesting that you call that 'treatment'.

If you made it through college without shitting on other people at some point then you're fucking amazing.
Nobody I know did.

That makes you a cunt.

That and your clear disdain for self-education using the bountiful resources of the internets.
You remind me of the ex marine in American Beauty.

Raise minimum wage (=less benefits and more tax).
You'd have to raise it a fuck of a long way before it offset tax credits.

Again? They didn't sink it the first time.
(Sorry, spoiler alert, etc)
It has both. It also has large shops. Oxford Street has shops in a range of sizes.
Not particularly. 1.5 million Europeans were also enslaved by Barbary pirates. Much like the rest of human history, slavery has been pretty much prevalent.
Are the dead Americans and dead Germans on the cost or benefit side of that equation?
Ft Hood only allowed MPs to consistently be armed
So the place with well trained soldiers doesn't even allow them to be constantly armed and you want the general populace to carry guns everywhere?
Save everybody some time, just shoot yourself.
If you've been working for 40 years then it's generally a safe assumption that any random other person is probably younger than you, especially online.

McAfee Virus is a far more appropriate name for it.
Does more damage than any computer virus I've ever actually been infected by.

There are other approaches.
