I still laugh occasionally when I remember an army career video I saw in school which featured (among other officers) a "Major Richard Head".
For at least the last fifteen years I've believed my ICQ account was lost forever, however seeing your post now I decided one last time to try logging in by guessing the password. And it worked!! I can see my old…
This is hilarious, but I think the most mature thing to do would have been to detect if the site is inside an iframe and if so add a polite link saying "click here to go to sqword.com and play this game ad free".
My wife interviewed someone who tried it (she noticed), so people at least do attempt this.
Doesn't seem particularly surprising, since poof is (was? I haven't heard it in decades) a derogatory term for a gay man.
Just that an article saying "group did evil thing X times" doesn't say anything good or bad about the group to me if I don't know how many times you would expect from any other similarly sized sample of people.
> Or you could be outraged regardless of the ratio That's a fair point.
216,000 sounds like a lot. Does that make French Catholic priests more or less likely historically to be abusers than the average adult male? Can't get outraged until I find out.
Sorry, I was trying to satirise the argument for why it should be Argentinian, where the fundamental (but generally unsaid) reason is "because it's close to us".

Sorry, I edited my comment at the same time you posted your comment - leading to yours to not have the proper context. (For the record I wrote something about things that happen frequently not being news)
If true, I think this would be the first ever case of a novel virus ever being developed in a lab and then accidentally released. If false, then it's yet another viral mutation / species cross over which have happened…
Agreed entirely. I inherited a system with 50k lines of unreliable shell scripts. I figured out ways to unit test them, do mocking, and pushed developers to unit test their scripts. I even wrote long articles of best…
Does clean living and healthy lifestyle help much with malaria and starvation?
It may be an odd thing to pick up on, but I'm sure the concept of murder-by-exploding-cow didn't come from Savage Run. For one thing a character is murdered the same way in the fantasy novel Skavenslayer, published in…
That made me laugh so much back in the day. But what was ridiculous back in the early 2000s is now a practically everyday event. My wife frequently uses a "find my phone" app to find her online device.
I've never understood this. If I gather evidence against somebody illegally, and it proves their guilt, shouldn't we both go to jail?
