Calling anonymous cowards names doesn't help, sadly. They're already willing to put their words under the name "coward", since they already know what they are. You think that you can hurt them more than knowing they constantly live in fear?

That is, in fact, a lie. Granted, it's at the low end of the resolution of gaming mice, but since you can move the ball more than a mouse ball without having to move your hand, you actually end up getting more precision. The sample rate and the DPI are both fine for gaming.

Do you know how not to be a condescending dickass? Wait, no. You don't. I must be new here. Cowards like you never know that.

If you're not moving your arm, then you're moving your wrist. If you are moving your arm, you're moving your arm and your wrist. I don't have to move my wrist to use my trackball. If you don't know you're moving your wrist when you're moving your mouse, then you're not at all in touch with your body. It's the smallest repeated movements that do the most damage. Kind of like when you masturbate.

Unfortunately, what you avoid in union management you gain in contracting company executives and shareholders...

Even if you derive so much pleasure from stepping on workers that it's illegal in 14 southern states, that's an expensive way to get rid of some unions...(and that's the best-case scenario, the cost-benefit looks worse if you don't.)

Alibaba is mostly (possibly entirely, I don't know how much if anything they sell on their own account) the middleman. I'd be fairly surprised if they don't make it past 'consumer protection' (such as it is) pretty much entirely unscathed. Maybe they'll even add an abusive mandatory binding arbitration clause!

So Ebay, but with lower transaction fees?

Are for losers. Some of us dont believe in them. At all.

Which is limited in the UK. ( this isn't the US we are discussing here, this time )

And then just the act of using a darknet is grounds for jail. Wont matter what content, just that they catch you doing it.

Nope, not one of those.. not at all.. Is anyone surprised?

Because they thought they were being clever, but they weren't? They should really be informed that people saw what they did there. It's for their own good. That way they'll understand the sort of responses they're getting. Or did you think nobody should ever be told what they're doing wrong so that they can be confused for the rest of their lives?

If a department is not serving its stated function, and cannot propose a rational plan for doing so, then it should be eliminated because it's a waste of our money, and therefore our time and effort.

If we don't embrace space travel, and we do embrace life extension, that does seem like a real concern. We're not maintaining our environment well with the population we've got now.

In China, they'll murder you just for tax evasion. Falsifying part numbers and getting caught making China look bad almost certainly qualifies even if the part wasn't involved in an international incident. If you're going to go off to break rocks or get broken up for your internal organs anyway, who cares?

For most people you just insert cable A into socket B and push play. They don't give a fuck. If their disc gets scratched up they will throw it away and buy another one or watch something else. If you just buy the overpriced shit in the store then it all works, especially if you buy all the same brand.

Whether or not you were indoctrinated in religion when you were young and impressionable, if you haven't experienced God the only rational choice is that the question doesn't matter.

As to indoctrination, I think you're putting way too much weight on that. One fellow I drink with sometimes was brought up in a strict Baptist family in Kentucky, yet he is absolutely convinced that God can't possibly exist. Another guy I knew was brought up by atheists, and had a religious experience when he was strung out and homeless.

As to "why Jesus" it's because of what he taught (The Buddha was certainly full of wisdom, I learned a lot about Buddhists when stationed in Thailand). Basically, love everybody. Treat folks like you want to be treated. Don't judge.

I don't think Jesus and Buddha would have had much to argue about except that reincarnation thing, and maybe karma.
