No, the golden rule is: if you have the gold, you make the rules.

Indeed, I still don't understand why anyone would want an Apple Watch.

I'm not religious, but this kind of shit only makes me think of that famous line: "It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven."

The drone will have a built-in loudspeaker that will play "Yakety Sax" when it detects such situations.

Let's go even further: the "Sword of Damocles" device by Ivan Sutherland and Bob Sproull. 1968.

Despite the name that tried to ride the VR fad, the Virtual Boy was not a VR device as we use the term now, since it didn't do head-tracking.

Can we blame him for "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" as well?

So here we have a paper about *sexism*, garnering a review that is egregiously, over-the-top sexist in nature.

So, this would suggest to me (not by any means an expert) that the reviewer was quite aware of what he was saying -- he was being sarcastic, and/or trying to be funny. In other words, the over-the-top sexist tone was deliberate.

Wise? Probably not. But people often try to make points in misguided ways, and of those, sarcasm probably leads the pack. I'm reminded of the Justine Sacco controversy. Sacco, if you recall, was the flack who tweeted: "Going to Africa. Hope I don't get AIDS. Just Kidding. I'm White!" So all the Right-Thinking People were all outraged. Except, Sacco is a Good Progressive. Her tweet was (obviously, to some of us) an attempt to sarcastically tweak White Privilege. (Picture her saying it while rolling her eyes.)

Same idea might apply here.

Sure, you slingshot around the sun, pick up enough speed - you're in time warp. If you don't, you're fried.

Interestingly, just the other day I found this. I wonder how good it is.

It's like the Newton, but this one doesn't eat up martha.

I thought Turku was some alternative spelling of Turkey. :P

That's nonsense. Stephen Elop was the reason for Nokia's downfall.

Hey, Mr. Science: Were you trying to give us textbook examples of both Argument Ad Hominem and Appeal to Authority?

Save me your sputtering but nonsensical reply (which is what you guys ALWAYS respond with, every time, without fail). tompaulco presented facts. Are they correct? I don't know - but I know even less after your reply, which just makes everyone who reads it a little stupider. If the information exists to refute it ... well, why not present THAT, and really look smart, instead of spouting your textbook examples of logical fallacies?
