  1. Lol you're taking trolling way back.

  2. Because hate speech cannot be defined in means clear enough for legal matters. It is entirely subjective like calling something art.

    We know for sure it isn't toilets or sanitation products.

    So SuperKendoll can comment.

  5. Can you give a legal definition of "hate speech"?

  6. Oh yeah I see twitter trucks driving around picking up Jews constantly.

  7. Twitter gave everyone a voice. Unfortunately that voice is cancer. We would all be better off if twitter just disappeared.

  8. My job bought me a HP Spectre, maxed out with 32gb of ram and a 4k display. It died in two months. During compiles I had to raise it off the desk or the cpu would hit 100C!

    the curtains are just blue.

  10. Isn't Silicon Valley full of job opportunities? Shouldn't be too difficult to find a company that doesn't expect an 80 hour week from you.

  11. Re:OS/2 on Is The Linux Desktop In Trouble? (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    I loved OS/2 but it was so damn picky about hardware. I have old Thinkpads from that era that should run OS/2 but they don't like it one bit.

    Sounds similar to IBM MVS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... I always though the IBM ecosystem was boring because of its business orientated stance but they did lots of amazing development in hardware and operating systems.

    Please show me the Linux builds for AutoCAD and SolidWorks.

    Interesting. I never figured the heebs for being anti vax. But the deeper into any religion you get the whackier its followers.

  15. I wish the mayor would actually call them out as morons.

  16. As the old saying goes I'd rather own a gun and never need it versus needing a gun and not owning one.

  17. Re:I would not buy/use on Windows 10 Ported To OnePlus 6T Smartphone (androidpolice.com) · · Score: 1

    WalMart was dumping Windows phones a few years ago, a $100 Nokia for $19.95 I bought one to play around with and truthfully it was pretty nice. For a low end phone the interface was responsive and the few available apps ran just fine. Long term I don't know how they held up but it was nicer than a lot of cheap Android phones.

  18. That picture is the most underwhelming thing I've seen given the time and effort involved. I'm pretty sure the movie Interstellar used a correct model for their black hole. This looks like a blurry background image from an old video game.

  19. god that's settled. Now we can figure out that P=NP problem that nobody can give a coherent answer on why its even a thing.

  20. Ubuntu 18.04 then. Copies every new Windows feature.

    So they're configured in a terrible state by default then. I've been using Linux since 1996. Your reply shows why Linux will never be a viable desktop OS.

  22. Yes. Linux ruined scroll bars. Clicking in the blank area no longer advances a single page. Now it moves that far down so when you have a 1000 page pdf it makes scrolling one page at a time annoying. Also they copied the Windows collapsible design and keep making the grey colors closer and closer. Soon the bar and the background will be the same color and invisible.

  23. I tried running Sling on an old Roku box and just moving one menu choice took seconds. It was literally slow motion. The funny thing is the video codecs and software haven't changed since this box was new. They made the interface slow on purpose. The remote was garbage as well. You had to press the buttons with a specific pressure and speed or they didn't register. I bought a cheap small form factor box and installed Slackware. Sling runs great in the browser window. A cron script puts the box to sleep if the browser isn't running.

  24. Are you overwriting the bios? Then it's not fucking bricked. Being XP era you could probably remove the eeprom and flash it yourself.

  25. So you're OK with guilty until proven innocent?

    Plenty of innocent people are in jail while awaiting trial.
