I propose a new rating "-1 Drunk"
It should have similar consequences as "+1 Funny" with respect to Karma. In essence: "Bless him. He has no idea what he is talking about. We will hide his embarrassment as quickly as possible."
Jay Lee is a tech blogger for the Houston Chronicle. He also has a little radio show on a public radio station.
He admits in his article that he was cranking out enough takedown notices to semi-automate the process. He perhaps should have known GoDaddy's policy regarding multiple sites registered to the same person. Though, I think it unreasonable for him to research which third party sites would be affected in the defense of his work. On the gripping hand, all the non-infringing sites were restored at his request once the problem was brought to light.
My own personal suspicion is that Ms. Shwagger was not the author of the websites and may have had little or no idea of the providence of the image in question. This does not excuse her alleged, abusive reactions to Mr. Lee. It may shed some light on why she thinks that she is the agrieved party in this matter.
I have not heard Mr. Lee espouse any political position on his radio show. Extrapolating from his positions on various tech news items addressed on his show, I suspect that he may actually agree with Ms. Shwagger's political views. Which makes her unfounded, partisan attacks all the more ironic.
All suspects are GUILTY. Otherwise they wouldn't be suspect.
pointless wars and security theatre.
Sounds like a lot of jobs to me, isn't that what we're supposed to be addressing, all the idle hands?
In principle, I agree with you. However, I cannot help but think that there might be more productive activities than groping four-year-olds or tossing around bits of lead in foreign locales.
There is no air there. The analogies to previous attempts at colonization really break down when you consider that if key infrastructure elements fail, you suffocate in a matter of hours, perhaps days. Worst comes to worst, a failing terrestrial colony can fall back on local food and water, or perhaps swallow their pride and make friends with the people already living there. They never had to worry about where their next breath would come from.
There is no "settling" the moon. Why? Because there is no air there. We may be able to haul machinery to the moon to generate are locally, but those machines will require vigilant maintenance and a constant stream of supplies from mother Earth.
Yes, but. Do you know what the QUEERS are doing to the SOIL?!?
Take that HIPSTERS.
Tube amps are SOCIALISM!
Which is why NASA sank $300m into SpaceX am-I-right?
Entropy isn't what it used to be.
