I ripped a CD yesterday.

I wrote on a magnitude English better quality than 90% of the world.

The biggest difference between transistor radios and BT hardware is that BT will never give you a prize for being the 9th caller.

I’m just starting “blasphemous” and “inscription”. I just completed “Axiom Verge”.

An (American) football team my family follows used to have a coach that got so upset over plays and calls that he would advance onto the field gesticulating and screaming, causing the team to get penalties.

Did they council this guy to control himself? No. They got someone on staff to physically restrain him when he lost his mind. Like the kid’s only job was to grab the coach by the belt-loops and keep him off the field.

I love this story because it’s about a masculine man engaging in a masculine activity who cannot be expected to control his own hysterics. I keep it in my back pocket for when the “men are stoic, women are emotional” BS comes up.

This is not about stopping bot-scrapers, it’s about charging them.

No recoil, but you might feel a little sting.

This is the first one of these I’ve upvoted.

Your search has still only turned up a forgery.

I’m trying to imagine the user that both needs a text editor in the command line, yet is uncomfortable outside a gui.

I write scripts all day, but closing a program without clicking the little ‘x’ is scary and weird.

American Football: no time outs.

Play it just like soccer. Ref’s calls are final, and the clock doesn’t stop unless their is an injury.

It would make the game much more fun to watch, cut the runtime by two thirds, and force teams to hire athletes who can maintain vigorous activity for half an hour without dying.

This is a real thing. They’ve got a website, a facebook, and a youtube.

What’s the deal with people hating on astrology? DAE get the vibe that there’s more to this than “astrology doesn’t work”?

The thing is that even in the James Randy world of people taking advantage of the credulous, astrology is still a pretty small fish. The skeptic doth protest too much.

I love all the little ways observant Jews try to lawyer their way out of the inconvenience of their own religious observance.

For example, some elevators in NYC run continuously on Shabbat, stopping at every floor so nobody has to push any buttons.

I just love the contradiction of an all powerful, omniscient God that can be so easily tricked, delightful.

Domestic GPS is plenty accurate to use in weapons. It must be accurate to <1M to be useful for navigation. If google maps can find your iphone in your house a missile can too.

I suspect that the Government has plans to make the signal less accurate or even turn it off in the case of an emergency.

GPS is also trivial to jam or spoof since the signals are weak anyway. In Ukraine the EW space is so flooded that they use wired drones, and old rockets with inertial navigation are popular.

I swear baby, this is my first early access. This has never happened to me before.

Crush patriarchy. That’s the system that’s failed these men after all. It wasn’t progressive values that promised them women to dispose of. It wasn’t feminism that promised them easy success and automatic status.

It’s the promise of patriarchy that has “been stolen from us”. And it’s the restoration of patriarchy these men are clamoring for. Men want their privilege back and the Left can accommodate them for the low low price of jettisoning feminist values from the movement.

This is really the most Democrat bullshit ever. Left politics is getting more support than ever, but we’re going to get obsessed with pleasing the groups that hate and oppose us instead of championing the issues of those who support us.

Don’t confuse patriotism with nationalism. Patriotism is love for one’s homeland, nationalism is a delusion of blood and soil.

I was tired of being a Darwinist. Now I follow the writings of Dickens; I’m a Dickhead.

Capitalists are so fucking innovative that they’re trying to replace unpaid human labor with robots that are worse and cost money.
