Don't mess with Federal Judges.
Don't mess with Federal Judges.
You're living in the land of don't fuck with Federal Judges.
You wound't be wrong if the big bang were true.
When I was a kid I got a lot of vaccines. My income was zero. Now I get almost no vaccines and my income has skyrocketed.
I'm not willing to compromise, because you left out another victim: vaccinated kids. The vaccines aren't 100% effective. They rely upon near universal application to work.
I'm well aware. If generators get destroyed, do whatever it takes to bring in new generators.
They should have got new generators in by any means necessary.
First thing to do is to get some new generators in. Get the power back on.
They need to find a way to keep stupid people from running the plants. Fukushima's problems were severe, but the meltdowns were all preventable. That's the dirty little secret that Japan doesn't talk about. Any competent nuclear plant operator could have shut down Fukushima safely.
Any tax break like that should be considered corruption without having to dig any deeper.
Game journalism has never been and will never be honest. This is because gamers want game porn far more than they want hard hitting game journalism. In order to provide the game porn, the media has to get in bed with the developers and the publishers. This will lead to gamers getting burned from time to time. The old adage "buyer beware" applies especially well to any new release game.
Timeline:
Indy dev makes chick game.
Indy dev gets favorable mention by a media type.
Rumor spreads that dev slept with media type.
Group of gamers get furious at the alleged corruption.
Some people go on comment sites and call for dev to get raped etc.
Dev plus her friends loudly condemn such behaviour.
Some how this gets gamer group more furious.
You may say that the dev is on the authoritarian side, and gamers gate is on the libertarian side, but that's not how it looks.
Being able to fuck your way to success, that's libertarian. Doing and saying horrible things to people because of perceived minor offense, that's authoritarian. Getting even more pissed because you get called on it, that's also authoritarian.
If you aren't harassing people, nobody's calling you names. If you aren't calling for people to be raped etc, then the criticism isn't directed at you. If you *are*, then the criticism is warranted.
That's your fucking scandal? The entire gamer media is in the tank for in AAA game, and your scandal is an indy dev who fucked some guys? I'm starting to think this gamer gate is just another grouping of right wing nuts.
I have seen people on Slashdot complain that the scientists weren't taking the Sun into account, but maybe that was you, too.
Let's look at a time line.
1. Climate scientists: Discover climate has changed dramatically several times
2. Climate scientists: Gather mountains of evidence of such changes
3. Climate scientists: Discover that humans are affecting climate
4. Climate scientists: Gather mountains of evidence that humans affect climate
5. Climate scientists: Warn the world that humans are affecting climate
So yeah, you're probably the only person in the world to take the time to write that sentence, but not take the time to think about it.
