Comment Re:Too bad their 22nm 3D failed (Score -1, Flamebait) 226

Greetings, my friend. Why have you not returned to Gamemakerdom yet?

Use Gamemaker. Use it right now. Why not use Gamemaker. There is simply no reason to not use Gamemaker. Time to switch to Gamemaker. Why not make the switch to Gamemaker? There's no reason for you to not use Gamemaker. None at all.

Return... to Gamemakerdom right this minuteness!

What do you have against Gamemaker? Why aren't you using Gamemaker? Why not switch to Gamemaker? Gamemaker's great. There's nothing more relaxing and fun than using Gamemaker. Use Gamemaker.

Why not return to Gamemakerdom today? Is there some reason you're not returning to Gamemakerdom right this minuteness? You'd better return to it.

Something is terribly amiss, my friend. I've been observing this phenomenon for some time now, but... could it be that you're not using Gamemaker? I'm detecting that you're not using Gamemaker (as you should be doing).

Return to Gamemakerdom. Return to it right this minuteness. What on Earth are you waiting for? Return to Gamemakerdom.

Comparing the negative response to the idea of installing Twitter in a car to the hysterical comparison of such negative responses to the support of the TSA and the Patriot Act and strongly implying support of totalitarianism?

They're merely inconsistent. The logic is the same. "Surrender some freedom for security." The amount of freedom is irrelevant. Getting fondled at an airport, for instance, is much less severe than it could be. But some people pretend that because it's only a small loss of freedom that it isn't a bad thing. I disagree. And the reason I disagree is that people assume that everyone will abuse these features, and that's not necessarily true. I'm against collective punishment.

Neither of those. The truth is that Gamemaker reigns supreme over everything else. Gamemaker has no flaws, and it is a perfect language.

That's why you, a mere Gamemakerless ultimatum, must return to Gamemakerdom. How can you claim to be a programmer if you're not using Gamemaker? That's laughable at best, and intentionally deceptive at worst.

Have people really lost sight of liberty so much?

Yes. They get too emotional about casualties in the name of freedom and opt to restrict what other people are able to do. They cannot handle even a single loss, and they don't even realize that their 'solutions' will often not even solve the problem.

This is why some people support the TSA and the Patriot Act. "We must restrict everyone's rights in exchange for a bit of safety." It's just that there are different things that they want to sacrifice freedom for. In some cases, it's terrorism (restricting people's rights to "stop the terrorists" doesn't seem popular here). In some cases, it's children (I've noticed this is more popular here, especially when it comes to issues like child porn).

At what point is it acceptable for them to step in?

When the threat not only looks credible, but it's likely that you'll be able to carry it out.

The government has misinterpreted obvious jokes before. Threats that were not credible at all. All parties involved knew they were jokes, but since the government doesn't know the people and is an emotionless overlord, it took them seriously.

If a threat is not likely to be carried out, it's just a waste of taxpayer money (and an individual's freedom) to imprison them. They could be joking/emotional. Very possible with human beings.

Might as well defend the TSA if you want to defend against unlikely threats.

He did do something.

Okay.

After all, by your concept of thought crime

Did you read my comment? "(unless they were threatening to do something and those threats were very likely to be carried out)."

But I do have a problem with imprisoning them if it's not damn likely that they were going to carry out the supposed plan.
