Comment The need for Cunts (Score 1) 94

Modern unions are not the same as the old unions.

Maybe they have to be as big a bunch of cunts as the cunts they go up against. Last time I checked cunts were ruling the world. We're seeing leaders with psychopathic characteristics, you're probably going to have to be a cunt just to go up against a more cunty set of cunts or the cunts will walk right over you.

The old unions fought the important battles, and their goals are mostly enshrined in law not just union contracts.

They died as well, for workers rights and human right and were used and deceived by another bunch of cunts. Some here have fought against unionization without the consideration that maybe, just maybe, people in tech who wanted to try would see these flaws and find a better way to outsmart the cunts. If only for the cunts amongst us, they may have succeeded.

Kennedy once said "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable"
loosely translated
"Cunts that make you be a cunt makes everyone have to be a cunt."

When these too-big-to-fail bloodsuckers can no longer support themselves and need a government handout they

will blame people for not being motivated enough to want to work.

The thing about AI is it is showing the world how morally bankrupt these corporations are, it's a true mirror for how much they value ordinary human beings. Fix incorporation law and expose them to the liability they create then watch them cry how it all AIs fault and that people are just not loyal anymore. It's more than they deserve.

Also, a nuclear plant gives local employment. A data center has very few workers once built.

Well if we're looking at tech to put AI data centres in space, space based power won't be far behind .

An possible avenue of terrestrial nuclear power obsolescence maybe that we're going to need as much nuclear power as we can get in space where we really can't do solar because it's so far away. That is a consideration within the service lifetime of any type of reactor you'd build today along with the possibility it may kill the very community it employs.

It maybe that the two combined create options that no one really saw coming.

Comment Re:Build fireproof structures, this is not difficu (Score 4, Informative) 77

It's quite practical to build completely fireproof homes. Some Californians do, which proves the rest can do that too.

Californian's are only at the beginning of their experience with eucalyptus trees, which are native to Australia. You're quite right, it's possible to build bushfire ( I think the US calls them wildfires) resistant homes. In Australia there are specific assessment and building requirements for a home likely to be affected by fire called BAL and I think you also have to get a planning permit

I had the experience of my neighborhood having a bushfire go through it. I realized how few people know just how terrifying the situation is when they asked "can't you just put it out with a garden hose?".
Not quite, the flames were 4-6 stories high, when it hit my neighborhood 18 houses burned down in about as many minutes. Generally a bush fire will have embers fly a few kilometres ahead of it, which is where you can try to stop it. The really bad ones create their own weather which looks like a firestorm and the worst ones creates a fire tornado, which is basically a small tornado throwing the stuff burning in it around.

This fire was stopped from getting my house by an empty block of land and a chopper hitting it with 10 tons of water. High BAL houses survived next to houses that were burning and have things like sprinkler systems on the roof that extinguish embers. However even if your house doesn't burn, the heat melts curtains to the glass, paint peels off interior walls.

You have no idea it's coming sometimes, we got about 5 minutes notice to evacuate, people literally escaped their homes with what they were wearing. I prepare my house for bushfires by cutting back the garden and we have go bags with clothes and important documents. I still have more to do though.

Fortunately there wasn't a loss of human life, lots of people pets panicked, ran before their owners could grab them and died - few people saw that coming. My poor neighbor, came home from breakfast with his wife to see his house on fire, they lost everything. My neighborhood is a ghost town now, people I've know for a long time just gone and it's a special kind of fucked to watch their houses being taken away in a skip bin.

If this thing helps even a little, I'd use it.

On the recent out-of-copyright topic someone pointed out that copyrights lapsed on various Betty Boop works for clerical reasons.

I can tell you a definite NO on that one because of recent work with the Betty Boop licensor, they very focused on protecting their brand.

Just as Open Source should be so that it continues to attract developers. Seeing stories like this validate the strictness in GPL3. The constant efforts to subvert the GPL really shows contempt for the developers and contributors.

Consider the consequences

I consider that to be anything but moral. In fact it is better described as an evil form of eugenics. The very fact that you could come up with it suggests there is something very vile and anti-life arising in people such as yourself. When the implications of the tyranny you were suggesting sank in, I could only conclude there is something fundamentally human missing from you.

The enforcement is as follows:

Clearly, only a woman's choice matters to you. What astounds me is the casual hatred and anger in suggesting "forced anonymized paternity" whilst trampling the rights of both fathers and children to know who they're connected to, or are you just proposing to trample the father's rights? The fact that you got up modded in a celebration of cruelty means you can now credit yourself for making the world a little darker.

Basically you're suggesting the creation of a planet of psychopaths through parental alienation, something known to be worse than sexual abuse of both genders. Your essentially proposing for children to be born into evil, I do hope you are able to turn yourself and others away from it.

You are disposable. if you want to feel really shitty

Much the same way a woman over 30 becomes more and more invisible. Career will not fulfill most people's souls. You could try having a relationship with another women however, statistically, you're more likely to encounter domestic violence in F-F relationships.

If you don't find a man on your level, which is lower than you think it is, you'll be left alone with your emotions for the rest of your life. A job for which every man knows he is always needed.

It's just so sad that there is no love for men and children in the cult of feminism. No humanity in it.

Unless this amoral evil is all coming from your extremist views, I think you've clearly demonstrated feminism is a hate movement.

As for your unrelated comments about religion

You are the one who brought religion into the picture. If you aren't even aware it's religion, then your lack of self-awareness is especially pathetic, but typical of religious people.

Specifically which of my comments in this thread or this topic did I bring religion into this discussion?

Never mind, there's no having a rational conversation with you.

Alternatively your world view has a fragile basis in reality and you're too confronted by the idea that I may actually have a point.

Tell us more about how your religion doesn't have a fragile basis in reality.

We're talking about the impact feminist control over reproductive policy has had on the falling birthrate that has occurred. It would seem you are not capable of having a rational discussion with me when you come up with a non sequitur like that. I could talk to you in hard numbers however it clear your not prepared to have a sincere conversation about them and what it means, which is a shame because I actually respect some of your views.

It seems you think I'm against abortion, I'm not. What's concerning is if you look at the abortion rate for the last year it makes up about 90% of the falling birth rate when excluding all other considerations. That tells me that there is a serious issue in western society regarding reproductive policy so it is only logical to look at where the control of that is.

Here are some things for you to consider. "The time to fix the roof is when the sun is shining" and "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable" both from JFK. The fundamental inequality in reproductive law against men and children is the driving factor here and it's not even possible to discuss it.

As for your unrelated comments about religion, I'm not particularly religious however you'd have to be a fool not to uncover the wisdom encoded there. It was the ancients that said "There will come a time where ignorance is celebrated as virtue and lies celebrated as truth", it looks like we are living those days.
