What caught my eye is he turned himself in. Was he getting death threats? Or does it say something a bit scary about the UK that someone would tweet an offensive joke, erase it, and then turn themselves into the police?
I would have turned myself in too.
Nobody likes being woken up at 5 AM by a bunch of police thugs breaking down their door, manhandling them, and confiscating all their computers for evidence.
...plus how would you even chose which game was in the Olympics?
The same way it's currently done now, with both bribes and sponsorship money.
In any case, I agree with you. If video game studios want their own competitions, they should just organize their own leagues.
It was East India Company tea that the 'founding fathers' dumped in the ocean. And East India Company-related trade restrictions that they suffered under.
something about the way the videos are presented. If I catch a random person posting a video, recent from memory of a cat trying to catch fish through the ice of a frozen pond, people would think that is funny. If it was on the 5 o'clock news, they'd think, "People are getting shot and there is rioting and this is what they put on?"
I don't know why but it seems if it's coming from professionals it should be bad news.
The animal kingdom does not use Latin. In fact, they're generally not very talkative at all, and their scientific exploration is TERRIBLE.
F'ing apes.
A titolo meramente esemplificativo si riporta il testo di alcune di tali recensioni:
i) “Ci è piaciuto tantissimo!!! Ma non sono sicuro se era questo ristorante o el kebab che è lì vicino. I filtri di TA non funzionano qui si può scrivere qualsiasi cosa”, recensione rilasciata per il ristorante “Combal.zero” di Rivoli e pubblicata in data 6 settembre 2014;
ii) “I’ve never been here!!! This websites has NO filters so I can say anything about this Restaurant and everyone is going to believe it. Buonanotte”, recensione rilasciata per il ristorante “Osteria francescana” di Modena e pubblicata in data 6 settembre 2014;
iii) “È senza dubbio il miglior ristorante cinese di Milano. Ottima l’anatra, gran buffet, camerieri gentili. Fantastici filtri sulle recensioni come potete osservare! Cinque palle verdi”, recensione rilasciata per il ristorante “Pomodoro & basilico” di San Mauro Torinese e pubblicata in data 4 settembre 2014.
[Probably terrible] translation:
i) We liked it _so_ much! But I'm not sure whether it was this restaurant or the kebab shop nearby. TA's filter doesn't work...here one can write whatever they want
iii) It is without doubt the best Chinese restaurant in Milan. Excellent duck, big buffet, polite staff. These are fantastic filters of the reviews, as you can see! (note: the restaurant is named "Tomato & Basil" and so clearly not Chinese)
Hmm, why not? If you're using docker in a production environment I'd hope you're building your own images, so where is the security concern? If you're just testing out software and testing builds then sure pull away from the docker hub, but if you're deploying to production you better have your own artifact repository storing your personal generated images.
for something that runs in a fenced network and only takes deploys and runs integration tests before being destroyed, I don't see how this is a huge problem?
You mean people use docker to run production images?
There's too much retcon in Trek to suggest that the canon might be immutable.
Not gonna lie
Vulcan was destroyed by time traveling angry Romulans. There is no 'ret' to 'con'
Like, for example, the theme song to Enterprise
LOL, I didn't see Enterprise until it was in syndication
They made exciting movies, but I don't want to watch them again, because they had no substance.
Well, I won't argue the point. It was escapism and action since I'm a fan of both. However, the market wants that, and it sells tickets
But, sooner or later, we can hope that someone will remember they're making a Star Trek, and that Roddenberry had some really great vision, and to try to stick with that.
In the meantime, I will accept a romantic relationship between Spock and Uhura as a placeholder, and some really good action sequences.
Yes, I want Trek to tackle big issues. But, dammit, I want action sequences, and sex with green chicks. And the first two have done that.
The third is now so completely freed from specific expectation that they (hopefully) will make an awesome movie which satisfies a lot of people. If they don't
So, I liked the first two of the reboot, and they're still in the process of establishing the "new" Trek universe. But look at where that took Marvel with both the Avengers and X-Men. They have all the room they need to define it and run with it. We have Earth, and we have Klingons in a now very explicitly alternate universe
If you put it in the hands of people who are fans, they'll make good movies if you let them. So while I'm afraid Star Trek movies will become simply action/space opera
I'm a few years south of 57 but I got lucky in my job, I get to admin the phone system. The first thing I did was disable my extension's VM. If it's that urgent, call my cell, if not send an email or put in a ticket.
If the movies were enjoyable, I might, but they suck on their own terms as well as adaptations of a much beloved book.
The first one had its moments, but the second was jaw droppingly dull, and worst of all Jackson mutilated the escape from the Elf king's tunnels. They took the barrel rider scene and turned it into a video game.
I have no desire to sit through the third.
And what happens to the Chinese economy when US orders suddenly dry up.
China is in a position to do the US significant harm, but in the process utterly devastating its own economy.
Man of Steel sucked. Even the ponderous Superman Returns was better. Hell, Superman IV was better.
I guess I disagree that they are "acting like assholes" by regulating resources on their property to benefit their business.
Except communications spectrum and devices aren't their fucking resources to regulate or control.
And the FCC has long said you can't block someone else's signal, especially just to boost your own business.
In your car analogy
And those terms explicitly don't allow what they're trying to do.
Real Programmers don't eat quiche. They eat Twinkies and Szechwan food.
