Are you really that retarded?

The republicans call them damn illegal immigrant children.

We have kids running away from some horrific violence and the fucking scumbag GOP assholes want to turn them away.

Well... I think what makes a show interesting is the quirky personalities of the characters. If they were "normal," it would be a pretty boring show. On top of that, many of the other scientists they meet on the show, including other faculty (Kripke excepted), are "normal." The deans and school presidents have been "normal." The Leslie character is pretty normal, all things considered. They had episodes where outside scientists came to visit, and despite the voracious sexual appetite (Dr. Plimpton), and another "Dr. Underhill," who was a handsome, "adventurous" motorcycle riding "stud" that Penny fell for (although he ends up being a jerk), they were pretty "normal."

I often find myself watching all sorts of fiction getting frustrated how stupidly people act in given situations... but if they didn't, it would be pretty boring.

Most moralities, that's true. For one, however, it is implied by the physical universe we live in, and is as objective as physics.

If a liberal arts degree holder actually had critical thinking skills, he would never have gotten a liberal arts degree.

There is nothing forcing you to use SystemD. If your favorite distribution is using SystemD find a new one that doesn't. The majority is ok with systemD, if you aren't find comradarie in another distribution with like minded people.

"But thus far, the logitech harmony series is the only thing I've found that actually gets that job done at all and therefore is the best by default."

Try the real stuff. Control 4, Crestron and AMX all blow the harmony remote out of the water so badly it is not funny. Hell even the URC programmable remotes make a harmony look like a joke.

No, but you are required to start printing out advertisements form online and mailing them to your neighbors.

"and I'm not letting water nor fire run when I'm not home "

I do as well as million of home owners do. Fire is in my furnace and it's running right now with me not home. And my sprinkler system was running at 8am a full hour after I had left for work. Many times I will start a load of laundry on my way out of the house and let that run, million of people do this.

Dude, get over your paranoia.

Only a fool would be OK with cloud based control and automation. If all the processing and control is not done on the local LAN then the product is 100% crap.

And yes I am calling most of this consumer "smart home" products utter crap.

How do you think they "Target" ads? They sell your info. Your defense here is something along the lines of "Its ok because they are not making as much money from targeting their ads as Google."?

These games should have been released for android/IOS years ago.. they would have made a buttload of money off of that old IP.

If they are just going to sit on it they need to release it and let people that are not lazy make it come back to life.

I see people all over linking their Facebook to many sites. Never thought I would see it on /.

I can't predict what would happen, but your last statement is what I've been looking for in all this mess... in the short term, things like this are almost always painful, there's a lot of readjusting to do, but it's what happens in the long term that matters. I would applaud Scotland's secession as long overdue and, yes, as an American, believe that freedom and independence are just as important (if not more) than financial security.
