Re: So it's basically...All your face belong to us !

Big Brother requires human faces to stamp upon forever.

Re: I think..

But since they took the insane, violent tack of actually CONDONING the murder of an innocent victim, someone they never knew, that did nothing to anyone in their group personally other than disagreeing with their ideology, and that they never even met

This is what makes Nazis Nazis. They decide that an entire group of people are less than human and then go looking for members of that group to harm.

Re: Flaws in this pudding

Fuckwit.

Re: Threesome

To improve the user experience, of course. At least for exhibitionists, anyway.

Re: None of this is levitation

What do you need to do during the 50 even years?

Re: 0th

If an AI decided that humanity needed to be saved from itself, might it decide that murdering a hundred million climate change deniers to halt their drag on progress was an acceptable price to pay for ensuring that seven billion people had a better opportunity for life, health and happiness?

Re: As much as I hate nazis...

who might actually have a point concerning white people on projection to lose all major homelands within mere decades.

Homelands? Remind me, if you want to talk of race, who is the intruder in North America? Were you in favour of white people wiping out Native Americans, enslaving black Africans and then segregating and disenfranchising black people after being forced to free them? Yet all you have to face is being outvoted, if people do actually vote en bloc by ethnicity in favour of something which you don't also favour.

This is what happens when you forget that people are people. This is what happens when you are taught to hate: you teach yourself to live in fear.

Re: Right back at ya...

I look forward to the spiral of escalation. Not.

Re: In my newsfeed 'highlights' today

This is 2017, right?

Yes, 2017. The year when the most appealing people in your newsfeed are fictional hereditary rulers wielding power by sword and dragon.

Re: Over my dead body!

He's trying to turn back the tide. Surely that makes him a Cnut?

Cnut was demonstrating to the sycophants, flatterers and bootlickers in his court that the king couldn't hold back the tide, something Khosla could learn from.

Workers on scaffolding around the tower face a significant risk to their hearing if the bells, including the quarter-hour and half-hour chimes, are allowed to continue.

It'll be immigrant workers who are being pandered to like this, forcing the patriotic Great British bell to be silenced just for their lazy comfort. They'll be laughing all the way to the bank -- with our tax money!

Are you asking if they were swastika-friendly? He's refused to say.

And for anyone who is a fan of big numbers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oh-My-God_particle.

The Stormer has been spewing hate for four or five years. It's telling that it took a high-profile murder for GoDaddy to act (although in fairness I don't know if they've been the hosting company for all that time).

Someone else's tax dollars at work...

I expect they're due to be fitted with something a tad more powerful than cream pies.

Re: now there's an idea ...

I'm in.

We should be able to get it to go supersonic by dropping it from a great height.

Just an outline thought.

Re: Give that man a cookie

the Tories would surely not take a risk on having a leader with such a thin majority,

I'm sure the Rees-Mogg wing of the party would be happy to revive the old tradition of having a party leader promoted to the Lords if their rotten borough should fail to do the right thing.

Re: And they wonder...

If you appoint corporate whores to important offices, then the government appears to be nothing but a corporate whore to be despised.

But... but... Trump is draining the swamp. I'm sure he is. He said it on television in front of tens of millions of people, so it must be true.

Re: Colonization dilemma

Even a weekend in Slough is so much nicer than Bognor in the rain.

You just need a counter-script script.

Caller: "Am I speaking to Mr X? My name is Dave. How are you today, sir?"

Me (reading from counter-script script): "Fuck off and get a proper job." *slam*

Re: Seems a bit early to be drawing the curve

That wasn't the data used to make the estimate. The LIGO events just prompted the question.

Ask and ye shall receive.

Re: TL;DR

CEO response: "Trebles all round!"

Every time some corporate scumbag fiddles his way around a regulation designed tor reduce pollution, to benefit his bottom line, I think "This arsehole is trying to kill me." He's not necessarily a sociopath. He thinks he's doing the right thing for his company (not to mention his career), but he doesn't realise -- or perhaps doesn't care, or dismisses it as something he can't do anything about -- that the cumulative effect of his actions, and the actions of everyone like him, is making the world a worse place to live in. He thinks he'll escape the worst of it, because he'll have the money to isolate himself and his family from most of the consequences. He's just perpetuating the vicious circle instead of trying to break it, and wilfully undermining those who are trying to do so.

We'd all like shinier, more affordable, toys to play with, but we're adults and can recognise that paying an extra (£|$|€)10 for something is worth it if it reduces the impact of manufacture on the environment we all depend upon to live. When I was a kid I loved Frosties, and would have happily have eaten them for every meal, but it didn't take me long to realise that my mum was right to not let me do so. The people who are selfishly acting against the intent of legislation designed to make the world a more survivable place need to face jail time to ram the message home.

Re: Investigate a cloud

I'd hate to have to piece all of that together to figure out what's going on.

Isn't it enough to know that they're scamming people? Untangling their business structure is a nice intellectual exercise,. but -- other than perhaps for training purposes -- it has no practical use unless you are planning to file suit against them and want to know in which country you'll have to do it.

It seems that Larry Page doesn't do anything or know anything, he has found his perfect role in life.

A bigly political career beckons.

I think you're the one in dire need of recalibration.

The synergistic modularity of your post is mission-critical.

It's a ball of plasma, mostly, not a ball of gas.

Re: Sadly I have bad news

What about someone else's kid? Anyone got a spare one they don't need?

Re: Not a clue

We don't have the slightest clue.

On the contrary, we have quite a few clues and we're gathering more all the time.

Where did you go to school? I want to know so that I don't accidentally send my kids there.
