You had me with you at first. You lost me where you implied I thought she deserved it. My home town isn't safe. If you come there, you are well aware. You can spend a little time driving and can tell you have to be careful where you go. I don't know if she knew that mall wasn't safe, although it wouldn't be unreasonable to assume, if one was inclined. Not to mention it was surrounded by seedier neighborhoods on two sides and adjacent to an extremely poor part of town.
However, she was responsible for making sure it was safe as you said. Is shooting a gun safe? Can be. Is shooting a gun with it pointed near your head? I wouldn't try it. And as a male, I avoid that mall, especially at dusk. I don't go to malls where robberies have been known to happen and I check them out before I go. She was careless. And she was responsible for losing an expensive borrowed necklace is she lost it during the robbery. Just like someone who gets shot and wasn't wearing orange while hunting. They didn't deserve it, the other person should have made sure, but not wearing orange is just down right careless when others are near hunting. In other words, you play with fire and you get burned. Anyone capable of driving knows about fire.

They did two test, one let them eat all they wanted. As the first sentence of the summary states.. ""In an experiment conducted by a Princeton University team, 'Rats with access to high-fructose corn syrup gained significantly more weight than those with access to table sugar, even when their overall caloric intake was the same." So yes, it was a fair comparison. Sounds like it is about as "virtually" identical, as the taste. That happens a lot in chemistry...
Your body does need sugar.... although not processed. Glucose is a sugar. You need it. Starches and carbs also break down into smaller sugars, changing your blood sugar, which can affect how you eat and how hungry you are.
I watched the first part of the video, haven't had time to watch it all yet. He made some good points so far, but I haven't seen where he has proved fructose is a poison. I do agree with the soda thing, as I have recently thought about new coke as a kid and what the difference was since before Pepsi debuted their throwbacks. If I drink a soda, it is a "Mexican" Coke with real sugar. I know I don't crave it like I did coke when they came out with the classic that had HFCS, and was different to me than the old coke,the first time I tried it. It sucked. Now I know a little more why it was done.
Damnit, it's almost 6 in the morning and I can't sleep. I just knew some asshole was gonna keep me up tonight on/. because he was a douche and I had to correct him.
It isn't about a 3 point turn, it's about it's hard to find the fucking road, even though it is right there, and people get confused. People have crossed over a ditch on foot several times to knock on my door, looking for the road that I live on.... I know you don't give a shit about people saving hassle knowing where they are going but those that read maps... they do. I know it really ain't that big of a deal. Unless you are using a map....
And it wasn't smugness, it was sarcasm, tool. I'm glad they did this, and I was just poking fun. Lighten up.

I don't care about the presentation, and no I didn't watch it. Anything is bad in significant quantities, even water. Would they say water is bad for you? Then they can stuff they're sensationalism. Sugar is natural and your body needs it. It doesn't need corn syrup.
Cars are safer if you know how to drive defensively. Some have never been in a wreck even with close calls while some have them often. It is comparing apples to oranges really, except you are right having control can be better sometimes.
He does become more responsible, locks are to keep honest people honest, and they do work. If someone is determined, they don't. If that man "really" wanted to rob her, he'd defeat the lock on her door to her home, instead of taking a crime of opportunity. And again she is not to blame for being robbed, you are right.
We probably deserve a padded room for taking unnecessary risks sometimes. It is convenient for you to place the blame on the robber, as you should and then absolve her of any responsibility. Jumping out of a airplane is a risk, but it is different than going to a seedy part of town expecting to not get robbed. We take risks taking a crap, and not taking a crap, but that has nothing to do with what we're talking about. She was being careless, end of story.
If you only knew how many people pulled onto the wrong street since it is hard to see form the road, you'd understand why I would at least like maps to be correct.
After submitting that they have my street name wrong and the next one over with it's label, and another one missing, years ago, I can just do it myself? This, this is just epic genius! I mean, that thought never went though my mind. Completely unobvious.

And education and understanding is the only way they will have "better luck". Anger and frustration toward them won't likely help much. But understanding, goes a long way in showing them love, which they are more apt to respond to, than directed anger.
No such thing as bad student, only bad teacher, Danielson.
I never said that they deserved playing with fire, or that it was the woman's fault. The point was that she had responsibility, and she did. She allowed it to happen. Just like if she allowed her child to play with fire and he got burnt. And you are right, the blame ALL goes on the robber. This isn't a perfect world, and we all know it. If it was, then I'd say she didn't have responsibility. But then we'd have no point to discus...
I think we need to look into food, and that hydroponics may not be the answer. We reign in on nature with farms, but nature still does things like that the "best" . When we make it all our own, we tend to molest it in ways we don't know. Kind of like you said in the beginning.
There is much we could do better, but our food supply is tainted, meaning we are tainted, and I don't know if we'll be ever to overtake evil because of that.
We fail to realize how much power we control over our lives. I once had a friend go on about this woman who was robbed. I was like she's the victim. He said yes, but she went un-escorted, at dusk, at a place that was known to have several robberies in the last couple of months, and was a known place to avoid for the last several years, when everyone knows there is a good chance you are coming out within 20 minutes, stepping out of a SUV with pearls on.
I don't think his point was that she deserved it, but that she was careless, and I agree. You can't "justify" the robber pointing a gun at her. You just can't. But she could have done some things differently. She is the victim, but she also put herself out there. Some would blame her, and that is perhaps where the "just" part comes in. I try not to pass judgment until I know all of the facts. Maybe she didn't know, but then she was still careless in not making it a point to know. And some therefore might not "feel sorry" for her. I do, she was ignorant more than likely. I mean really, who likes to play with fire unless they don't "really" understand how bad they can get burnt? Only the mentally ill, or someone who wants to get burnt...
As far as the game, I don't play them anymore, but if I did, I'd likely go along with it unless it made me uncomfortable, or just pretend there were different circumstances, as surely others will. I don't have reservations about harming someone to protect an innocent, but I do have reservations about killing someone unarmed, "enemy" or not. Again, we don't know all of the facts. And pushing hate/anger on someone in the form of a bullet is not going to make friends.

Bruce, I don't know much about this, and others have stated above that it is GPLv2 software. Do you think it is possible that it is GPLv3 software if there is a GPLv3 header? Does it even matter? I don't know what significance the header makes...
Either they are in violation, and need to come into compliance, or this smells of trolling to cause turmoil in FOSS-land. No better way to troll than to turn people against each other, for no good reason.
We used to think that we were not going to be safe from computers once they developed great enough artificial intelligence, because "they" don't feel regret. Now, we find that in fact, because they do feel "regret", or the opportunity cost, that is what actually will do us in because they will figure we are not efficient and are a waste.
Gotcha. "Seems sadly ironic that that tie has what's gotten you into this pickle, Mullet."
Perhaps something more equitable and reasonable, such as prison time for the actual persons trying to take away their "rights" and hey, automatic compensation for the term of the non-compete agreement at the current salary should do it as well. One time, just one time and you'd see less stunts, and that is what it is, happening.

No, I think it would be better to remind and educate those that call themselves Republicans what the truth is, and if they want to conform to the real party, then they can, otherwise they will be ignored, similar to how they have done. Sometimes you have to fight fire with fire.
Please user paragraphs, it makes it easier to read/parse, thanks!
Exactly, if they wan't to plan to do something, how about educate about sound security period. I don't care if Microsoft employs 88,000 people. What is the opportunity cost in feeding their monopoly to society and business? Competition is a good thing. We need the government to push things open things like Linux, and in time even better will come along if everything is not so regulated to death, allowing for other monopolies to rise up.
What should be illegal is to require (or even imply it is) someone to sign anything that is not enforceable as a prerequisite. That constitutes a form of fraud in my book.
I got lost apparently and forgot to finish with the thought that I think Feynman wasn't an intelligent, stupid person, but rather "well rounded". I would surmise that what he "felt like" was not that even half the world was stupid, as he could get most of those he came into contact with to understand... he was very good at that, as that is what he did.
Thank you nagging girl friend for interrupting me! (lies, I know, they don't exist if I am here, but I have to put down some excuse right?)
