like the racists who think black people are the problem
the fact they are modded up leads me to believe it might be time to leave slashdot
when racists get modded up, the forum is dying
laws also have to be enforced
you can pass any law you want, but if no one enforces them, the laws on the book don't mean anything
poverty and corruption track with homicides worldwide. not skin color you racist moron
it's kind of ironic, but it requires intellectual inferiority to believe in a theory of superiority via skin color
i saw something about troll and haha and stopped reading
the topic is "Moving To an Offshore-Proof Career?"
if you have something to say on that, great
if you have lame personal attacks on me based on low iq partisan prejudices that have nothing to do with me, then fuck off, troll
you are creating a fake conflict based on ignorant prejudices about me and what i think, then injecting the ignorant position into the thread as if i said any of the position you are opposing. then you want me to support the contrarian position you made up in your head, as if it has anything to do with what i actually think or as if any one anywhere would ever want to take you up on the retarded offer
all you are doing is you are telling us you operate on prejudices rather than honest communication, that you can't tell the difference between the one dimensional strawmen that only reside in your head and actual real people, and that you lack any friends and desperately desire social interaction, because you make it personal and you stalk people based on these shallow partisan stereotypes
you need real friends, you need to actually talk to people rather than profile and creep on them, and you need to shut the fuck up because you are off the fucking topic. your social hygiene is pathetic and diseased
the topic is "Ask Slashdot: Moving To an Offshore-Proof Career?"
not me
not your partisan ignorance
you're one obsessed moron
you don't know anything about me but it's important for you to profile me, prejudice me, and act like we have some sort of relationship for you to spout stereotyped partisan ignorance as if i care or have a stake
you need friends. in real life. badly. you're sanity is leaking

in short: guy moves to malaysia (he had no ties to the area, just picked it on economic considerations) and doesn't just survive, but does well, on $16k/yr, working 10 hours a week
John is not independently wealthy. He did not have a big IPO, and does not have have a revenue stream. Nor does he have a best-selling book on, say, how to live cheap. Instead, he was a practicing programmer and IT program manager who moved from Virginia to Malaysia, on the expectation of taking a year long “sabbatical,” and, if he could find a way to make it work, to stay a bit longer.
regardless of why, the UAH data showed April 2015 had a temperature anomaly of 0.07C, it's hard for people to get excited over hundredths of a degree. They said the world comes to an end when we get to 2C and we're at 0.07C, I'm not impressed.

the temperature anomaly for April 2015 is 0.07C; we have to see some crazy hot temps to get back on track for the temperature prediction form 20 years ago. If I were going to bet right now, seeing how quiet the sun has been in the last 2 cycles, I'd go with a Little Ice Age, before I'd go with another Medieval Warm period!
Obama got the Nobel Peace Prize, like Al Gore did for "An Inconvenient Truth", very different from the other Nobel Prizes ; rather ironic considering we've been at constant war during his administration.
On the contrary, the climate models are exceedingly accurate, but they are simply wrong and have no predictive value; people often confuse accuracy with error.
One thing holds true, the planet can only support so much life before the life destroys the planet. That is just basic science. While we may not be there, it isn't unconceivable that we could be approaching that. Exponential growth of a species leads to such sudden crashes into proverbial Brick Walls.
Climate is just an easy way to relay the dangers to people who are self-absorbed (most of society). YOU WON"T BE ABLE TO BREATHE or FIND FOOD.. "Oh, I see now, that would be bad, right?"
So your admitting as far as your concerned, Apocalyptic Global Warming Scaremongering is just a guise to get the sheeple to go into lemming-mote and rush over the clift into the abyse as a sacrifice to Gaia?
