Haven't those discussions been largely mixes of new people? I think it's fair for the people who didn't get a chance to weigh in the first time to have their own deliberation about it.
- talmand 12y agoBut you don't understand, once it's been posted it never needs to be discussed ever again. If you didn't read it the first time then tough luck. My theory is the half-life of a subject is ten years before absolutely no one is bothered about it being discussed again.
- xnull2guest 12y agoI understand and I disagree with this sentiment wholeheartedly.
- lotsofmangos 12y agoI can cheerfully discuss the same subject ten times in a row on the same evidence, reach a different conclusion each time and still consider the exercise worthwhile.
- joelrunyon 12y agoI'm pretty sure this is sarcasm.
- xnull2guest 12y agoI didn't consider that. I hope so.
- talmand 12y agoIt is indeed sarcasm. This is one of my pet peeves on sites like this, the assumption that if a story was discussed once then everyone for all time can just refer to the appropriate thread and heaven forbid an alternate thread pop up. It's as if having a different discussion at the same time or at some point later by people who have not heard of the story before and most likely have no clue the previous thread exists is a serious problem.
- ForcesOfOdin 12y agoThank you. I know that feel. As for the OP : it's probably Russia, pretending to be Chinese hackers working out of North Korea. Destabilization indeed. North Korea's 1000 IP internet (seriously, their whole country, USA has almost 1billion IPs) was shut down for a long time recently. Things are moving! Speculate! Speculate! Speculate!
