I think this is a ridiculous sentiment.

You can often tell who speaks from a place of complete and total ignorance on this subject, the (willfully) ignorant will try so very hard to equate driving shit-faced with driving on marijuana.

They couldn't be more different. Not a popular opinion, I know. It's also an ignorance-free point of view.

You're a knowledgeable lot, so I think I'll put this question out to you all.

I'm looking for a budget pair of cans, I usually spend about 20 bucks because I'm both cheap and poor. I was considering the HD202's, I usually get by with HD201's but the cords short out and fray after a year or so of everyday use.

I only have two requirements: over-ear headphones with a comically oversized cord

appreciate any recommendations in advance.

I'll never be able to say enough good things about VLC, it changed the way I interacted with video permanently. I haven't thought about a codec in years.

only wish I found it sooner.

do season tickets never expire? that's pretty neat.

I've never thought to look in to how a season ticket actually works, the stock comparison is an interesting one and puts them in a different perspective for me.

>Net neutrality means no preferential treatment for any traffic.

I don't know how this can be open to interpretation, by anyone. self-described "t-mobile fan" or not.

I think it's a perfect example of lackluster security oversight when it comes to the IoT.

people want a webcam they can plug in and use, most people don't consider the features it offers nor do they secure it beyond what is enabled by default. webcams are a thing, like it or not, and they use the internet, like it or not.

if you think a rascally teenager turning your webcam lights on in the middle of the night is bad, wait until he changes your e-fridge settings and all your food spoils.

What about paying people to provide security services?

Eyewitnesses might not be foolproof, but they're better than a cost effective dummy camera after a murder has taken place.

I don't think the murderer in this case was deterred at all, perhaps an intimidating rent-a-cop would have allowed the murder to occur near a working security camera where the police could have gathered useful information about the crime.

The solution is to look at the questions asked.

If you're asking loaded questions, you're getting loaded results. If the results in question are college sexual assault statistics and no one bothered to ask "have you been sexually assaulted" then that's what I would call loaded.

>Personally, I believe Zuckerberg is sincere in wanting to connect everyone in the world with each other.

>I feel sure he doesn't think of it as a land grab, even privately.

why?

has this really slowed down at all, even since refunds were introduced?

people buying greenlight votes in bulk and selling unchanged asset packs hasn't gotten any better from what I can see, and Valve has made it clear they don't mind letting shovelware through the door as long as they get 30%.

why would it stop?

now that's knowing your meme. well explained!

This is really cool, the illusion is honestly fantastic.

I love how the "inputs" mirror the way they do, just like the image itself.

wow. no temporary stopgap stave offs? no big national stage partisan drama?

any chance he doesn't end up in prison, though?

I might be naive, but I'm under the impression that the book doesn't get thrown at white-collar criminals in the US.

what are the odds he just ends up on probation?

AMD has consistently impressed me with stuff like this, definitely going AMD this time when it's time to upgrade the ol' GPU. Nvidia be damned.

what you are condoning is not politely asking, as if that ever got anything accomplished in this world. polite requests can be politely ignored.

you are condoning bullying. bullying is threatening and demeaning in a way a shirt can only hope to one day accomplish, for the record.

I'm a big fan of the update blog posts they do over at Dolphin.

>When people refuse to behave themselves, they get shunned.

and who decides what behavior is acceptable? you? don't make me laugh.

you, and those like you, are bullies. plain and simple. cut and dry. black and white.

some might even call you "thought-bullies."

Actually, what you call "calling people out" is literally indistinguishable from bullying. You justify bullying another person with "bullshit" qualifiers from a imaginary moral high-ground while in reality being no better than the bullies you grew up with middle school.

>which has given you the mistaken belief that it makes up a large portion of activism.

but, the point made was that no causes are free of it, but neither are they made up entirely of it. (it being "intellectually malformed pseudo-activisism" in this case)

I don't think anyone said it makes up a large portion of activism, or even implied it.

I'm starting to think my bad teeth are going to kill me before stem cells get around to regrowing them for me.

It's the same as opening the fridge, finding nothing you want, and going back a bit later with lower standards.

It's not that there is nothing there, your standards just need adjusted before you can appreciate what is there.

I guess the same can be applied to cable, but you have to really lower those standards to appreciate dozens of home shopping networks, reality TV and infomercials.

the people who dream up this nonsense are so out of touch that when they see that empty bench year after year, they're more likely to blame the shy students for not using the tools given to them than accept that it's a poorly thought out concept.

>That is, Coca-Cola supplies and products were required to transit a Soviet occupation zone, while being transported between the Lambach bottling plant and the Vienna warehouse

man, what a logistical nightmare. can't imagine having to deal with something like that if I was trying to get coca-cola from A to B. they must have been grateful for the "unusual consequence" of almost no soviet-zone stoppage.

also, some people just like to try and be as hurtful as possible, regardless. especially on the internet.

I've certainly been guilty of lashing out at someone with whatever I felt might cut deepest. being impotent to resolve your (technically unjustified) rage can lead a person down a dark path.

thank you for making my point better than I could have.

I couldn't disagree more. Schools & cities both ought to live in fear of lawsuits to stop this kind of nonsense from occuring as a kneejerk reaction and give common sense an opportunity to prevail.

Since we call whistleblowers traitors, maybe we should call yes men traitors too.

Is this not treasonous?

that's the recommended course of action, IIRC.

personally, I prefer to do all my gray market drug purchases on the ol' regular internet with a prepaid debit card.
