So true, you could see elements of Gurny in Picard.

It's better to have loved and lost

Moderators are a special kind of special.

I got banned from the entire site for "circumventing" subreddit bans, which was because some of my alts were fed subreddits by the algorithm that I was not supposed to be on.

On what specifically? I am referring to sugar's relationship to obesity and the way insulin behaves in the blood when confronted with sugar and fat.

"Point us to an post about a guy given a job he is clearly unqualified"

That's literally my point -- the post isn't about the person in charge of the ministry! It's about them testing Collabora and the users just having too many issues with it. I guarantee if it was the same exact story and the minister had a male name none of you would have done this deep dive and criticism.

And why do you think she is unqualified? The Minister of Digitization doesn't need to be an expert on digitization, they need to be competent at high-level management and understanding how laws and policies work. Did she do something wrong? Would someone else have somehow convinced the 37 or however many employees who tested it not to hate it?

Yeah but for some reason Slashdot commenters jump to targeting people mentioned in the stories when they have a female first name.

Sugar should have a dis-honorable mention here. Remember the board is *legally* obliged to produce a profit for investors and until harm to human health is in the realm of plausible deniability they will continue to do so. Make legal consequences for boards and things will change.

Ahhh the human body, such a profitable place to dispose of many waste products.

The size in metric would be about 2.5 kilometres.

Oh, fluffernutter.

ICE is only convenient because of a hundred years of infrastructure build-out. But you think having an electrician spend two hours running a 50 amp line from your panel to the side of your house, which takes a few hours, is somehow an insurmountable block.

"Nice horseless carriage, Mr. Ford, but can you produce enough to switch *all* transportation to it? As of today, call for horseless only transportation means that personal vehicle ownership becomes impossible. To put it differently, you can drive your horseless carriage only because other people drive horses."

US male life expectancy is 76.5 years. If I tell you every year that you're probably going to die by the time you're seventy-seven, and you hit seventy-eight, do you now believe you're immortal?

Islamic states have a horrendous record of human rights violations. US citizens have more constitutional human right than many countries other than the UK and Iran isn't even on the list. Islam's treatment of women and homosexuals is so bad that seeing women and homosexuals ignorantly professing their support for Islam is offensive to any person who, like me, has spent time fighting for human rights. The ignorance in their position reduces human rights for all because it erodes the rights of two groups of humans, men and children.

In *Western* countries women already have more rights than men and children so creating gender parity with human rights means granting MORE rights to men and children, for example increasing their bodily autonomy and access to services so it is similar to the rights women have.

To bring it back to the conversation we are having; Corporations should not have human rights at all. Human rights are for humans.

Audiophilles will be convinced they can hear a difference. They can't, but they will be convinced of it.

"And the UK handed you the brand new computer industry on a plate by destroying all the computers it had built during the war while not requiring that you do the same with the licensed copies you had built."

The UK decided to destroy its computers on its own, don't blame us for your idiocy. "Require"? What were you going to "require" we do? And how were you going to enforce this "requirement"?

And what licensed copies are you talking about? Britain shared the Bombe (which was basically an upgraded version of the one the Polish built, but of course Brits insist they're the geniuses who broke Enigma), but ENIAC was a US production.
