Yes, it's not like the maintainers of the PHP language ever broke crypt() and then debated whether or not they were going to fix it...

Relying on Java for anything fundamental is going to bite you in the butt.

PHP is forecast to be very popular going forward. That means your employment prospects are good!

Can they print a whistle in only three hours?

After all, these things go for 25 cents a pop at a party store.

this person had nothing better to do with their life, no outside activities to occupy their time, no significant (or insignificant) other to fool around with, or anything else that "normal" people would do.

Clearly they are so bored and don't have enough work to do that they had to find something to occupy their life.

Congratulations! You are the shining example of someone living in their parents basement.

If Gazans disarmed then Israel would have absolutely no grounds to strike it

Thank you for pointing out the hypocrisy of the situation. People who are under occupation, subject to the whims of a foreign country are supposed to roll over and play dead and cannot, in any way shape or form, defend themselves or retaliate against their oppressors.

Funny I didn't see the Jews in Warsaw roll over and play dead, I didn't see the Jews before the creation of Israel roll over and play dead under British rule. Apparently everyone else is supposed to roll over and play dead except Israelis who are the poor, oppressed people and so should be able to defend themselves.

Again, thank you for the hypocritical stance.

I'm not sure why you're conflating your understandable disgust over the current state of copyright litigation in the US with issues related to code integrity. There's not exactly a lot of common ground there.

Now if you had mentioned DHS' cozy relationship with the NSA - an organization that most of us expect is actively subverting both code and the standards we rely on - that would make more sense.

I buy spools of what we call tie wire from the hardware store, it appears to be steel wire P in O (pickled in oil) which is stored in oiled paper. A lot of people might call that baling wire, but I'm not baling anything.

Well, you're right, I was in full dick mode. I'm even sorry about it, albeit admittedly only slightly. I apologize for how, but not what I said. Yeah well, that's the best you're getting out of me this morning.

Nobody expects the piracy sites to be legit. But a lot of people think that there are so many of them that their activity can go unnoticed. Those people are about to get an awakening, if they even take the banners seriously.

So what do you think should be Israel's response to the constant bombing of their country?

So what do you think should Palestine's response to the constant checkpoints, blockading of their ports, airport and border crossings, as well as the occupation and continued confiscation of their land by Israel should be?

See the problem? One side says, "Look! See how evil they are. They [insert some random nonsense]. That is why we do what we do."

Then the other side says, "See! See how they are. They [insert some random nonsense]. That is why we do what we do."

The fact is, Israel has two parties as part of its government who are just as hellbent on the destruction of Palestine and the removal of all Palestinians from Israel and the land they want to confiscate as those who claim Hamas wants to do the same to Israel, YET no one has a problem with these de facto terrorist groups being part of the Israeli government. It's only when Hamas gets its voice in the Palestinian government that people have a problem.

The double standard is truly staggering when you consider Israel was South Africa's lone partner during the Apartheid regime, and it, Israel, learned well from those policies, policies which it now implements with impunity because its lobby has bought and paid for the the U.S. Congress to do its bidding, regardless of what happens.

So when you say what should Israel's response to X be, turn it around and ask the same of what Palestine's response should be to Y. You'll never hear any Israeli spokesperson answer the question, "What would you do if you had to live under the same conditions" because to do so would expose the hypocrisy of their position.

bail: to clear of water by dipping (usually followed by out ): to bail out a boat
bale: to make (hay, etc) into a bale or bales

Try "baling". Also, try not using words you don't understand.

I know that this is slashdot, and that you therefore feel justified in being an ignorant idiot and spouting off without RTFAing, and you're in quite a bit of company: lots of other idiots are saying the same stupid shit you're saying. But the article makes it clear that "Neither the police or Project Sunblock are paying the website in question to display the police message". They're just suppressing the banner display, and displaying a police message instead.

Pathetic is deciding you know how the system works without R'ing TFA, and as a result, being a F'n I.

Said no one about you ever.

The argument is that it causes unforeseen health complications, not that it is dangerous. Since the great streetcar scandal, Americans have had literally two choices: own a car, or be left behind economically.

Which provide substantial benefit to others.

What? You are no longer in left field. You have left the ballpark.

There is no evidence that eating meat is bad for you, and in fact eating only meat and vegetables has been shown to have immense benefits for some people. Now you've gone from standing outside the ballpark to just being a fucking idiot.

Not all processed foods are evil, although that's the way to bet. But our government has told us to eat them, essentially, so they (we) are on the hook for that one. When it's had anything to say about it at all, the government has told us not to smoke.

Yeah, I got the same treatment. But all that means is that we "only" were at developmental risk due to smoking during the first, and most important phase of the pregnancy.

It is not and never has been a free country, the government was designed by a bunch of rich white men who wanted to retain control of it after all. That's why they left themselves various loopholes.

We know you're normal, you believe against all evidence that tobacco is not a drug.
