You can't fix stupid.
You can fire them though.
Not if they're a GS employee.

Check out the latest Matt Taibi piece in Rolling Stone about the slap on the wrist the bankers got from the DOJ.
So, I guess you want to take away the people's right to choose their own fate.
So, are you coming out as a straight-up anarchist, then?
I thought that was a given.
Expect any posts that point to disappeared posts to be disappeared as well, with the account modbombed into oblivion and permanent '-2' status.
Be careful for what you wish for, please. I'm worried those "flags" might be doing something inappropriate.
But of course they are.
Eleven comments and nothing by the GNAA? There might be hope for slashdot after all.
I don't know that I would categorize movies as 'spoon feeding' the audience. Maybe you need to find better movies:)
But what I will say is that there exist different media for different purposes.
Depends on what the goal of the author is, and the length of the work. Not a place for a hard and fast rule.
What happened with newuniversal? Why did it fizzle out? How did it get started?
the guy interviewed on 60 Minutes last week, insisting that it was his democratic right to tell a woman to cover herself with a hijab AND expect her to comply,
Well, it IS his democratic right to tell her to do so.
Likewise, it IS his democratic right to expect her to comply.
Whether she actually complies or not, well, that's a question of HER democratic rights....
Note that my own opinion is that she should "comply" by macing him....
Preferably with an actual mace.
I suspect that a lot of them were just vacuous celebrities whose publicists arranged to get them a ticket at a discount, as a PR stunt.
Oh come now! No need to be so harsh. JUSTIN BIEBER is on that list!
Somebody should have let him sit in on the most recent test flight.
One of the definitions I found was:
One who makes great sacrifices or suffers much in order to further a belief, cause, or principle.
I am sure that fits. While SpaceShip II is mainly intended for a non-exploration purpose, the program has resulted in some significant advances in rocketry and White Knight II has significant non-tourism use. These pilots have been involved in other space efforts, I remember the one who was injured from the Rotary Rocket test flights. There are lots of safer ways for these folks to make as much money as a test pilot is paid. They do what they do to advance our progress in aeronautics and space.
Martyrs? Who killed them for their beliefs?
Go away, troll. They certainly died while pursuing something intensely important that they were willing to risk their lives for. The fact that you weren't around to pull the trigger makes them no less martyrs.
I've got opinions too. Like that your opinions about people sharing their opinions are dull.
You're saying what we're all thinking when we read your opinions.
To which Ubuntu forum users massively agreed that this would make a great release name !
Memory fault - where am I?
