No one could bring themselves to believe the horrors that the Nazi's did UNTIL the pictures could be seen.
These things are hard to look at, but they must be seen.

Maybe if we don't look at it we can pretend it doesn't exist, right?
I commend Fox on this. As a consumer of news I want the CHOICE of whether I view this or not. I do not want the news provider to choose for me. As a point of fact, I have up to this point chosen not to view the video.
I am actually not upset a Fox for this, I am upset that the New York Times are such cowards that they won't show Charlie Hebdo cartoons.
Well judging by the Aereo decision where they were just like a cable company in front of one court and not at all like a cable company in front of another court, I'm not counting on the courts being logically consistent.
Sorry? No, you're not. What a horribly cruel comment.
Many people struggle at public school for many different reasons.
Telling them that THEY suck isn't going to help them.
I stream that movie to find out which of the two monsters comes out on top.

Is it really a zero-sum game where a girl studying CS means that a boy can't?
To progressives, everything is a zero sum game. The metric they are measuring gets a desired increase if a girl joins CS or if a boy is excluded from CS.
Yep. And this costs way less than bringing in and swapping out a part.
I don't see any real reason not to just spin the spare drives.
Heh, with a quick glance, I read your first line as:

Yep. Slashdot has become a huge pile of suck lately. It used to be "News for Nerds", now its looking more for "News for Nerd wannabes".
A political bent has been here a long time, but it used to be more even keeled, and the discussion used to be more open. Hell, even Jon Katz was better than some of the political drivel being posted here lately, especially vis a vis "diversity" and gamer gate. The progressive, hipster, and white knight posturing here lately has been sickening.
RIP Slashdot. We used to have logical discussions around here and talk about technology, when culture came up it was viewed from within and around the technology. Well the SJW's are on the march and they've arrived as

It is well known that John Kerry testified against the Vietnam war in a congressional hearing. This link is the second one found by google.
I'm not saying anything one way or the other but him speaking out against the war is a well known thing.
We don't hear the cachunk, cachunk, cachunk of the mimeograph machine anymore.
In the past 10 years, both a very large wind farm and an Natural Gas power plant have been build with 100 miles of where I live. Hydro is already very well utilized in my state. I am fully supportive of all of that. I'm not going to be marching and shouting NIMBY!
40% of the electricity I use is renewable already.
What we need to build next is a Nuclear Power plant.
I never said I was against renewables or Hydro power. I am against regulations and taxes that spike the price of energy and have severe negative economic impacts.
The problem is you are acting like we'll have to do that _immediately_ when in actuality we'll have to do that over the next 200-500 years.
This means that there will be instances where mitigation will be more effective (and more doable) in the future than acting now to drastically (extremely drastically) reduce our use of carbon to make these changes not take place.
There is a lot of mitigation technology and infrastructure that can be deployed and used in the next 200-500 years to deal with climate change issues.
