  • Ok, the title comes from the linked article, but they aren't banned from "mentioning anatomy". They are banned from showing pictures of reproductive organs.

    I don't know why some people seem compelled to take a story that's plenty horrible as it stands and give it a deceptive headline... seems like I'm seeing more of that recently. Are we really in a post-truth era?

  • This is the obvious response to the terrorism-inducing Republican meme. A recipe with a mount-watering picture in response to every regurgitation of that reprehensible lie would have been awesome. A bit late for that now, I think it's dying down ...

  • You could have actually done the thing and shared the link instead of that annoying animated GIF that won't stop. We get it, you're so clever.

    Here's the link you couldn't be arsed to provide: https://archive.ph/gPlLT

    EDIT: Looks like it doesn't get past the paywall after all. Oh well, the more you know ....

  • I haven't checked the veracity of reports like this, but I've heard this and it makes me think her vagueness has got to do with $$$, not votes.

  • The only assumption he's making is that, if you refer to yourself as "pro-life", you mean what everyone else in America who calls themselves "pro-life" means. It's a reasonable assumption, I mean, that's the way words work.

  • Sounds like you better not vote then.

    Note: I'm only giving you this special advice, everyone else definitely should vote.

  • They aren't marginalized or 'left behind,' though they feel excluded. They want to keep their white, Christian, male privilege.

    That pretty much sums it up -- do I even need to read the article?

  • We used to have these shit developers and I accepted a lot of bad code back then -- if it actually worked -- because otherwise "code review" is full-on training, which is an entire other job from the one I was hired to do.

    The client ditched that contracting firm, and the devs I work with now are worth putting in time on code review with -- but damn, we got hella shit code in our codebase to deal with now. Some of it got tossed, some of it ... we live with.

  • Distro wars, like the old vi vs emacs wars (showing my age, I know) is not entirely serious. I never understood sportsball fandom, but it's kind of like that. Debian is my home team; if you use Fedora, you're from out-of-town.

  • If your point is that Harris's campaign team is full of people looking out for corporate interests, and that reflects poorly on her prospects for taking the side of the people when our interests oppose theirs ... ok. It seems like you got a couple of snippets of evidence supporting that thesis: go, get your ducks in a row, and make a blog post with lots of links laying out the evidence as you see it, and we can consider it.

    Making a headline that's clearly deceptive when considered to be a description of the linked article (which is totally what it is; there is no wiggle room on this) is not going to do anything but annoy people and get them to vote down your post, even if the information considered on its own is something we'd want to know. Someone else will post it with a reasonable headline, and we'll vote that one up.

  • Here's a reference for those who don't recognize this.

  • Yeah, it's gotten so bad I eventually ordered a USB cable checker to figure out what any given USB cable is capable of (and to see if the cable has gone flaky, which seems to happen a lot). I haven't received it yet so I don't know if I can recommend this item, but ... gosh darn you sure need something like this.

  • You're going to make me look that up, aren't you? Here's a good summary of said 'groomer mod' scandal.
