"Stop and frisk." Here's a thought for those of you in favor of this: I'm a type 1 diabetic, I carry a syringe and a bottle of insulin in my pocket. Want to guess how many times I've gone to jail for drug paraphernalia? Three.
Twice they've thrown the insulin out (Apidra, costly) because the prescription's on the box, not the bottle.
Fuck you, and the police, if you support that kind of bullshit.

Blows the subscription model idea out of the water.
Target Red card requires a bank account to be linked, and it has been quite successful.
That is not true. I have a Target Red Card and no bank account information is tied to it.
Finding information about is pretty trivial. But since I made the claim, I'll back it up with a source. Link. Search for the names in the link on google, and you'll find a near-endless stream of information on it.
This event was the catalyst in bringing to light the corruption in commercial gaming journalism. It all spun out from there.
...The articles had drawn the ire of the self-described "Gater" movement, a grass-roots campaign to discredit prominent female games journalists....
The GamerGate movement had nothing to do with that at all, nor has it been about feminism. It actually started when a male Kotaku journalist published an article about a female game developer that he was sleeping with without disclosure, an act that is generally intolerable in any credible journalistic circle. From there, the mainstream gaming media outlets started with "defending it" to "attacking 'gamers'". It was almost funny how coordinated it was, because on August 28th almost every one of the gaming sites posted a "Gaming is Dead" article in unison (http://gamergate.giz.moe/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/1409546711940__large.jpg) when they were unable to squash it.
This article is a perfect example of the problem. It's near impossible to get a truthful story, because it turns out that most of the big names in games journalism have similar skeletons in the closet.
Compassion can be transferred?
Have you called ANY customer service department in your lifetime?
They don't care. Avoidance of the issue became the dominant resolution path for a reason.
False. Completely false. Why do you persist in this nonsense?
Women, in the same career field as a man, almost always makes less....
I've heard this a lot, and have seen a lot of statistics that show both ways, depending on the data view and metrics considered. But there seems to be a stronger opinion for the side that you mention in the quote above, at least in the public eye. So, and I really do want to know: If this was true, why don't multinational or traded companies only hire women? If a woman can preform as well or better than a man, and almost always makes less, then it would be folly for any board not to hire only women. Reducing the labor expense by 10-20%+ while maintaining the same productivity would put any large company way out in front competitively.
It's this simple question that makes me think that it's actually more complex than that, and that the versions of the reports showing it are ignoring non-gender factors. (hours worked in a week, time off for children, etc)
I always wanted to be a programmer so I could while away the night, hacking away at solutions to problems that interested me. Now I find myself in a career mired by paperwork, delays, and clueless management. I wish I would've known what the real world was like before I started -- perhaps I'd have taken up that writing career instead. (Who's kidding who... it's just as bad, if not worse.)
After checking my history, I need to re-evaluate my definition of the word "rarely."
I have a low UID but rarely comment. Mostly because by the time I get to an article, what's worth saying has been said. In short, I wouldn't hold that against him. The other evidence... eh, go wild.
When I had heard that the Russians were calling this kidnapping, I was doubtful -- but now, not so sure. We really do exact our justice anywhere we want to, don't we?
What happened to extradition treaties and such? When did it become "stuff them in a van and drive!"?
Testify! As was said before on
I Google'd "British Journalist Facebook Photo" and received zero valid results relating to what you describe. Do you have a more direct link, or a name?
Ridiculous summary with regards to the $500 million dollar figure. It includes the development AND MARKETING budgets!
Basically this. Destiny spent an estimate $360 million in Marketing and $140 million in Development, which is over a 2:1 ratio. CoD2:Modern Warfare 2 has a respective $150:$50 million or 3:1 split (Source). When game companies are spending a small relative fraction on the actual development, there's a problem.
