No, just lying in bed, working from home at my highly paid job, wondering when it was that slashdot got so lame. Used to be people came back with facts. Or counter arguments. Or opinions of their own. Or experiences of their own.
But it's been reduced to the point where the only opposition I ever get to my statements is from idiots who try to paint me as something I'm not and attack that. It's sad. You're sad.
I'm everything I ever said that I was. My life is stranger than fiction most of the time anyway, I have no need to lie to get people excited.
I agree... there should be a color for this. In between "Free" and "Partly free"; there should be a "Technically Free but de-facto censored" category
Why are you so afraid to call a spade a spade? The USA is NOT a free country. They censor people, they incarcerate more of their population than any other country, they make debt slaves of the people that remain... they are NOT FREE, and they're using war to spread their NOT FREEDOM everywhere they can because they hate OUR freedom.
Your ad hominem attack is irrelevant to the topic at hand. It's also flat out wrong; I've traveled to numerous different countries, and spent several years living outside my home country.
You talk about infrastructure like it's the be-all-and-end-all of everything. It's not.
Takes some seriously Orwellian doublethink to pretend copyright enforcement isn't censorship. The idea that the USA is a bastion of freedom... wake me up when there's a study made by people who aren't batshit crazy.
Get her addicted to cigarettes and cocaine. And pull out her molars. That'll get the weight off.
Fake violence, like two guys punching it out, clearing the air and getting on with no lasting harm and no festering resentment.
As opposed to real violence, involving weapons, maiming and death.
Punch out your neighbor. Maybe you'll end up friends afterwards.
How on earth does this make him a "scumbag" and why do you want his career to fail, exactly?
Ever heard of something called integrity? This man has none. He crafted a huge lie and operated under false pretenses. Who cares why he did it? He did it. Nothing he says or does can be trusted now. People who spread lies and misinformation like this JUSTIFY censorship.
Espionage is not science. There's this thing called the scientific method, look it up.
I hope this guys career ends it the toilet. It takes a real scumbag to carry off this kind of hoax.
He's right, though. Could be a form of epilepsy. Should get her checked by a real doctor.
A deep evolutionary pathway "gets it", dude. Like a bridge to nowhere, it goes its own way. Not like those shallow evolutionary pathways that just want to converge. I hate those guys!
I'd recommend reading "The Conquest of Bread" by Peter Kropotkin.
My perspective is that governments and economies are command and control technologies for civilizations, and the ones we have are ill suited to a world without scarcity. They destroy wealth to make the system work as it is, and with the technologies emerging, it's going to become ridiculous. So, the imperative is to create a better command and control technology, one that is fair, makes everyone feel suitability represented, elevates the right people at the right time and works toward abundance instead of destroying it.
They want to prevent people from using new communication technology to self-organize and make the existing government obsolete.
Or maybe it's that I want to use mobile as a platform to develop new communication technology that will let people self-organize and make existing government obsolete, but this renders the enterprise pointless.
Yeah, probably that second one.
Just because you get funded doesn't mean you have to do shit. Kickstarter creates as much obligation as a hobo standing outside a liquor store asking for change "for the bus".
Am I the only one who looks at this and thinks, "Here's clear evidence that, contrary to popular rhetoric, there is a powerful pro-female bias in this society, and any underrepresentation and underfunding that exists can therefore be entirely attributed to, I won't say failings... attributed to the character, capabilities and choices of women"?
Anyone can make an omelet with eggs. The trick is to make one with none.
