I'm sorry, I think I'm going to need a citation for that "incredibly popular" claim. Or is it that I run in the more moderate circles, so I am unaware? Is he popular among everyone, or popular among tea-party nutter…
Ted Cruz is an extreme outlier. Everyone else in the Republican party hates him. Please don't take his dumb remarks as representative of anyone else. Here is a quote [1] referring to how Mitch McConnell (Republican…
Sorry. To me, it looked like the issue had already been politicized, and I was just throwing in a quick sarcastic remark. Didn't think it would be taken too seriously. I get your point.
You don't get it. That would only be wrong if a republican president did it. When a democrat does it, it's fine.
Extreme liberals do not want "equal opportunity". What they actually want is "equal outcome in all circumstances", which is obviously never going to happen, not even under socialism/communism.
I don't really understand the "greedy old white men" part of your comment... What do you mean specifically? By the way, touch screens in avionics are gaining a lot of traction in the commercial aviation market. See one…

Netflix is unusable on my Apple TV. I can't even get through a 20-minute TV episode without it dropping to sub-480p quality and/or stopping completely. I've never been able to figure it out. I have the latest generation…
He didn't say anything about the quality of Windows RT / Windows Phone products. Sounds like he was just implying that they have a relatively small installed base compared to iOS / Android products. That's pretty hard…
I agree with your main point that long-term health is very important, but I'm hoping you're not saying that healthy food and tasty food are mutually exclusive.
In my mind, I think of Soylent as "food for people who don't like food". In the same way I think of Nickelback or American Idol as "music for people who don't like music". There are millions of these people worldwide.…
Because on the internet, and especially in internet comments, the world only exists in black and white. Something is either 100% true for everyone everywhere at all times without exception, or it is 100% false. There is…
Haven't similar products existed for a while now? I wonder how Soylent compares to a product like Ensure, or other meal-replacement powders / shakes that have been on the market for years already. Is Soylent…
I'm sorry you feel that way. I simply looked on the front page of HN, and didn't see any Microsoft / Nokia-related articles. So I went out and found some on another site. I can't control what is on the front page of HN.…
Again. So. Much. ANGER. RAAAAAGGGGGEEEE!!!!!!! Addressing your last paragraph: But why am I arguing with you? You've made it perfectly clear that you don't feel that I'm welcome here. You'd rather live in an Apple…
...it's actually a pretty big fucking problem. LOL, what is it about Apple that brings out so much ANGER on the internet? Seriously, I'm just having a field day, reading all the comments on HN, Ars, The Verge, Reddit,…

Ok, let's start over. Hello, how are you?

Actually, I'm not sure. Is it really not technically straw man? I think it is, but am tired of typing and I feel like I have wasted a lot of time in this thread. Everyone have a good week! See ya later.
Of course we could all imagine a bunch of made-up names for rooms that would be inappropriate in a business setting. Nobody is arguing that no such names exist. My problem is simply with your entire approach to your…
Except that there's no room called the "Coworker Fuck Room", so that's a straw-man argument...
That doesn't sound accurate to me... You're not always talking to everybody. On Facebook you can create friend lists, and then post things that are only visible to the people in the chosen list, in the same way that you…
"a guy that didn't bother to use comments or any documentation and his idea of versioning system are a bunch of folders" What does this have to do with the Objective-C language itself?
Let me get this straight: you are looking for healthy, sensible meals at a place called THE CHEESECAKE FACTORY. Are you serious? Read that again and think about it: the name of the place is The Cheesecake Factory.…
