That's why using "censorship" in the new, modern meaning has made it just a flame triggerword useful only to push people's hot buttons. It retains its pejorative connotation but none of the pejorative meaning. Under the current popular definition, as used in this story in particular, "censorship" means "any decision not to say something".

Journalists "censor" themselves every day they write an article. What did they say vs. what didn't they include? Editors censor the journalists, and then the public as a whole when they decide what letters to the editor to publish, how much of each to publish, and any "fixes" they apply for style or grammar.

Librarians censor every time they decide not to buy a certain book for the library. Bookstore owners censor when they choose which books to stock. Magazine/news dealers censor. Slashdot moderators commit censorship when enough of them collectively vote an comment down below the regular reading thresholds. Slashdot posters censor themselves every time they think twice about saying something here for fear of losing karma.

Men in the workplace censor themselves on a regular basis, assuming there is any woman in the same workplace who looks halfway decent. "You look hot today" isn't something they are allowed to say, so most of them censor that kind of comment from their speech. And if they forget, then someone else will happily censor them.

Yawn. Journalists are censoring themselves. News at 11.

I'm thinking it's a company in the media realm and I can tell you our marketing department is the only place other than the datacenter or the network core where we've considered 10Gb due to the size of files they deal with. 802.11ac will end up below 100Mbps for a crowded office which is just going to suck when dealing with multi-hundred MB PSD files of worse video.

Friends don't let friends listen to metal....

Still, better than rap...

So civil unrest may happen at some point. That's about as useful as saying there will be civil unrest unless there won't. Thanks a lot.

I do use triple headed monitors for day to day admin, but I can do a hell of a lot with my smartphone, just the other day I rebooted an entire non-production application stack from my phone while we were at lunch =)

And if 8,000 people threw the brick, don't charge each person with the entire cost. He's guilty and should be charged, but the punishment is not proportional to the crime.

Considering a full Solidworks license costs about 80% of the salary of an engineer I don't think it's being used too much in outsourced positions, the productivity hit would make the licensing dwarf the salary savings.

Yeah, and everyone uses their phones in the same environment with the same stress. Thanks for your input, but I need a case.

How many of them are clear on the back? Normal style cases wouldn't do the trick for this phone.

I like having a working phone after the inevitable drop, which means putting it in a case. This phone looks cool, but unless it's built to be durable without an additional case, or they have a custom case to make both screens usable, I'm no interested.

I think as most men age this happens naturally anyway as they realize just how empty shallow relationships and one night stands are, and how lonely it is when all their friends are now married and no longer good for the occasional fuck.

Seriously?

Wow...no...not at all. Most of my married friends say they live vicariously through me. They wish they had the freedom I had to come and go...spend my disposable income, and not be tied down to just any one woman with fear of penalty of losing half my shit I own.

Long term relationships with women are highly overrated. Sure some find it, and that's cool, but you can generally never trust someone that ultimately, people are people and deep down we're all genetrically programmed to look out for #1 (self) in the end.

"Shallow" relationships and one night stands are quite nice....and it is always nice to have the option of her her leave and go home from time to time.

Proof that USB cables are 4 dimensional.

Apologies if this appears twice. It looks like slashdot ate the first attempt.

Reading the entire summary before posting is generally not needed and considered bad form.

This means nuns and monks were or should be very learned.

No, it doesn't. No amount of studying bogus superstition will make you "learned" about anything but bogus superstition. Further, within the environment of the church, the roles of monks and nuns were (and remain) very different; and even beyond that, the education they received was very different based on sex. Again, you're oversimplifying and that's leading you to blase, naive conclusions.

Should men call that chauvinism or backwards feminism?

Men should call that "a trap."

It does invalidate his point about "mass public revulsion". If the current experience with FB is anything to go by, you and him are a relatively small minority.
