Comment Re:Three kids? (Score 1) 520

It's not a problem. The goal is to open the borders and import 3rd world hordes to make up native birthrate decline.These people will be happy to be here and will gladly take a more amenable deal from the 0.1%. It's very similar to how you bust say, an automotive or steel union. Bring in contract workers. Age-out the high paid union workers. Eventually break the union's voting base.

Comment Re:Who defines what is hateful (Score 1) 136

These videos can be very enlightening to the 19 year old SJW-in-training. They need to see what the "religion of peace" openly promotes, and which the "moderate members" condone either openly or through strategic silence.

hiding the truth is never the right move. We should be seekers of truth through critical thinking and open access to all of the information.

Comment copyright abusers and peddlers of ignorance (Score 2) 156

They are using copyright to remove information they do not own: the open source SDK not written by Sony. This is a clear abuse of copyright law. They should be placed in a copyright "time out" box for doing so: temporarily open season on all Sony copyrights. They are willfully and knowingly abusing our laws for their own gain.

At a philosophical level, I wish that all proprietary, undocumented computing hardware fails. I wish that they are not viable products and fail in the marketplace. I miss the days of C64, Amiga, and Atari ST. I think everyone would be happier if we returned to that business model. Companies would still make money. If the Xbox, Switch, and PS4 disappear today I think that would be perfectly fine.

Comment UI Disaster (Score 1) 233

I remember looking at various screenshots and videos of the windows phone UI. It had bunches of flat-shaded boxes with random information and interactive elements. It was almost impossible to figure out what was interactive and what was passive information. Also very simple arrangements had boxes halfway scrolled off the screen requiring finger-fidgeting for no good reason. It just looked sloppy and mostly painful to use.

The tragedy is forcing this UI design failure into the desktop OS as well. It didn't even work well on the phone!
