It's not great for the non-crazy people who live there that understand the reason for the ban. The I feel badly for the scientists that now have to put up with a whole new brand of fucking idiot.

Actually, the moment you say "it's for black people only", you've made it racist. If you feed anyone in the area that needs it, it becomes equal opportunity.

...the truly sexist programs are arriving. Before these kinds of programs just went to the people who needed them. Now they're going to the gender they think needs them.

She didn't get in to these occupations until my sister and I were close to being able to function unsupervised. A lot of these jobs weren't ones she took because she wanted to, she took them because she had to in order to make enough money to feed us all and keep up the house payments. I think she would have preferred to be a home maker. My point here is that if you really want to do these things, you can do them. Your gender is pretty much irrelevant. Being female might (and I stress might, since bodies can vary wildly) make it more difficult if the job is physically demanding, but your only real limitations beyond biology (in the same way I'll never be a UFC fighter) are the ones that you impose on yourself.

There's nothing wrong with being a stay at home mom. Being a mother **IS** a job, and it's one that many men feel is hard. Or at least, I think it's hard. I most definitely don't mean to marginalize those people.

My mother was a fire fighter, a logger, a paramedic, a construction worker, and many other things. She became a single parent when I was about 12 years old. She defied the imagined odds by:

1) actually getting the education/certification to perform these jobs, which is more considerable than you think. Especially if retraining later in life. A lot of these jobs have many optional certifications that can improve your pay/standing and make you more employable. She has held more tickets than any other person I've ever known.

2) proving she was completely capable by actually doing the work.

3) strength training to be able to withstand physically demanding jobs. Logging for 10 hours is harder than you think.

4) not acting like a baby when things got tough

5) not sitting around complaining about how it's a man's world, and a women can't make it

The real problem isn't that women are incapable. It's that most women don't have the fortitude to continue in the face of adversity. It's easier to give up, find a man who was raised to do all the heavy lifting and undesirable jobs and move on to having kids. It's not that women are inherently lazy, it's that they perceive certain jobs to be easier than others, and they prefer that which they consider easier.

Found the video online. You can see it here: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox...

Having just watched a video with one of the key devs involved (it's a featured video on the xbox one right now) they describe it as an emulation wrapper. The game itself is not "ported", rather, it's wrapped in code that completely emulates the xbox 360 and maps commands to the xbox one APIs. It even emulates the 360 xbox menu and other items.

It actually makes us both right to some degree. It's not really a port, but it's also not quite a virtual machine. They did make it clear that the chief hurdle is licensing and not the software itself.

This just restates things which are in TFA and it doesn't confirm or deny what you're saying.

Given that TFA is pretty light on details, can you point me to the definitive source of information that outlines this is actually what they're doing?

OK, so you don't know what a programmer is. Got it.

"It's not possible." ...and yet, virtual machines exist to run xbox 360 games on an x86 PC ( http://xenia.jp/ ), and they're made by people who don't have access to the documentation for the hardware. How exactly was this impossible again?

>Both are x86 hardware.

No, they aren't. The xbox 360 is PowerPC architecture ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... ) while the XBox One is x86 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... ).

Except "they" becomes a much smaller group, and most of us will just go "meh" and move on with our lives.

Do not underestimate the power of gnutella!

Is it just me, or is NASA really struggling to maintain relevancy? This doesn't seem like the sort of issue NASA should be concerned with.
