Poor white people are not nearly as violent as poor black people.

Tell that to the families of the dead in Overland, Kansas.

You racist shit, what are you too embarrassed to post under your "Third Way" moniker tonight?

I predict a sucky game.

I agree about Left/Right. The real divide is Top/Bottom. Even the notion of "individual/collective" is kind of a dodge in this instance. The only "collective" that I see anywhere in the US is aggregate capital in the form of the corporation.

Thanks for the info. That's what I'd assumed, and hoped.

So I'm not sure where this idea that these audits are "American only" or that there is something preventing someone from pointing out a vulnerability comes from.

Generally, I trust stuff that has lots of eyes on it.

Awww. That's a lot of posturing for not answering a very simple question.

The same could be said about any other label politicians use, and we're not really talking about (just) politicians here anyway, so that's kind of doubly moot.

Do you group your books by predominant color of the cover and texture? Or do you group them by subject matter, wether you read them already, wether you would read them again, size, that sort of stuff? The whole idea of human "races" is kind of broken.

I have books with small print that are stupid, I have books with big colorful pictures which are smart. Selecting them by superficial criteria like that, stuff like "is the page count a multiple of 11?" is just hurting yourself.

We operate by finding patterns of large data sets and then manipulating the patterns.

That is literally how our species thinks.

Yup. And our thinking gets *better* by repeating that process. Maybe even reflecting a little, trying to find patterns in the patterns we think we see. Maybe in some dark age it was really important to trust the person who looks like you more than a tree, a lion or a person who is painted in a completely different way (I dare guess that in the times that stuff evolved biologically, differences in skin tone probably played exactly no role). But things quickly got way more complex than that. Using symbols made our thinking powerful, yes, but confusing symbols with things can also become more costly than useful real quick.

With a dual-purpose typing needle it could be pretty killer though.

Well, the prediction of getting sophistry in response already came to pass, so hmm :P

It's not like people on /. use their real names anyway

I do, just so I can call people cowards when I run out of arguments ^^

> progressive hypocrisy

Rather, hypocrisy pretending to be progressiveness.

But of course, slashdot was always full of sore AC who are just there to catch "liberals" be stupid, as if that would help improve their own station. Here's how you can help with global warming, go play in traffic.

What I really resent OKCupid for is that popup for Firefox users. Thanks, useless random website the internet could do without, for helping fuck up something actually necessary. Yeah it was not their call that Eich resigned, he did that - but they still what they did, riding the dick of this issue for brownie points, either not caring or not having the faintest clue how precious the few remaining players for a free internet are. Anyone reading this who cheered for this, you're a poopy head.

If only "referral traffic from OKCupid" was a thing! Then I'd patronize anyone coming from there, and set a cookie that they're stupid and should be made fun of henceforth. That would show them.

Muad'Dib is wise in the ways of the desert. Muad'Dib creates his own water. Muad'Dib hides from the sun and travels in the cool night. Muad'Dib is fruitful and multiplies over the land. Muad'Dib we call 'instructor-of-boys.' That is a powerful base on which to build your life, Paul Muad'Dib, who is Usul among us.

Africa itself was a key player.

And the Left is the real Right. and, and, Frazier Glenn Cross is a demonrat because Robert Byrd!

It's all about projection. I take that as a positive, in that it shows you are capable of shame.
