If thou gazest long into the Pit, the Pit will also gaze into thee

Twitter Temperance League starts off the New Year with a fresh roasting of Bora Zivkovic who crimed against women today by coming back onto twitter without asking their permission and without wearing his cilice. https://twitter.com/seelix/status/418468189022871552 https://twitter.com/seelix http://...

Return Of The Jedi is a fucking shit film BTW. I'm just throwing that out there coz it's on now. What a pile of utter, fucking shite. I can see the zips on the fucking Ewoks costumes for Christ's sake. How on Earth did this get famous? How come Luke can use the bastard force to make C3-PO float on ...

I don't want to demean the legacy or courage of any veterans, as I feel anyone who serves, especially during wartime, deserves our respect & thanks. But is it not a bit hypocritical to laud the fact that the war veteran A fought in was a so-called Good war, while dismissing as irrelevant that veter...

When it comes down to it, though, Zimmer, Shermer, etc. are really following the correct strategy. What Myers dearly hopes is that a target will react in kind. Once he's brought his target down to his own level, he can just unleash the flying monkeys. The one lethal weapon a person who exists at a ...

Phil, try Rayman Origins if you like 2d platformers, really though all you need is Xenoblade Chronicles.

I blame Twitter. Twitter is no good for nuance, and very good for publishing every ill-considered brain-fart you may have to the world on the one hand, and outrage and bandwagons on the other.

The important thing is probably that PZ Myers recognizes that he is no longer part of a radical feminist movement. This shift is not a shift in his position (since he was critical of TERF radfems when he declared support for â€œRevolutionary Feminismâ€), but an acknowledgement that this side he wa...

Will you allow LOLCODE, or Malbolge, WHITESPACE, the language where the source code consists entirely of whitespace? These programming languages each in a different way satirize aspects of, or approaches to, the art of programming. I wouldn't allow it. While there is place for any kind of satire in...

The whole free software movement is a political statement. Adding a satirical repo doesn't get in the way of your use of others repos, anymore than having "A Modest Proposal" on the shelf inhibits your use of a a bookstore (even less, as a bookstore has physical limits on the books it can contain)....

Agreed, there's something very wrong when satire is forbidden. Software repositories are NOT the venue for sattire. Why not? They are places for you to store source code for software, not to make political statements of any kind. Just like the ER scan machine at the hospital is not the place for na...

Physics has a fine-tuning problem that it cannot resolve, therefore RAPE. NOW SPREAD THEM, YOU WHORE, I WANT IT.

So fine-tuning is a problem in physics. Great, but there's nothing even elite hjoomuns can do about it right now barring a breakthrough, much less the crayola-eating ones here.
