The attack is the community changing behavior spontaneously. Really I just wanted to use the word irono-recursively.

I'm not suggesting to do it. Also, if it's broken already (because it's a video game), forcing it to evolve would be fixing it, not breaking it. I'm just curious.

Hackers. Chaos. Fun. What's not to love? (Hypothetically) Is the system totally vulnerable to an attack like this?

I don't perceive any injustice. So I pissed off some people in Russert's thread today. Pissing off people on the internet is part of life. I think it's a video game, and could be better. That's what we do, make stuff better. I'm not sugg

It's badly written. Another thing is people eat bacteria shit in the form of yogurt and cheese all the time. So it's not like they should have a problem putting it in their cars. Those are some cool bugs though... If you could break down

I'm reading your words, not your mind. Goodnight. The widespread reaction shows how sick our culture is, not anything about Russert. I liked talking with you because you made me rethink what I thought. I still think I'm right, but you mad

I'm not emotional. You are wrong that everyone is emotional to some degree. Your rules are also wrong in certain cases. I would say more in email. Too far off topic here. I'm looking out for the blind spots of all my teammates who are d

My evidence of collusion includes the quotes by Tim and Cheney's press person at the Scooter Libby trial, and these quotes. These are not little linguistic tics, but well documented propaganda techniques. What you find dirty and distastefu

We crossed edits again. I don't think the presidents prerogative to set the agenda extends to colluding with a supposedly free press to deceive the american public. The way Russert questioned the VP was part of that collusion. (Hey, I noti

If people are debating whether or not Hussein is obtaining aluminum tubes for his WMDs (the ones he has "too") the propagandist wins. When Russert postures like this, he's miming the false dichotomy the propagandist wants people to be argu

My edits crossed your post. I pointed out the parts that are clearly propaganda techniques. It isn't propaganda for me to quote him like this. I just located the examples of subtle propaganda. See, the entire system isn't supposed to be

Yes I read it. Russert has been pissing me off for years. "VICE PRES. CHENEY: Who did the anthrax attack last fall, Tim? We don’t know. MR. RUSSERT: Could it have been Saddam?" "MR. RUSSERT: What, specifically, has he obtained that you be

You are right. I do have a certain amount of malice towards him. Because he was on TV tricking america and laughing and playing and making people like the parent comment think he was all sunshine and jolly ranchers while at the same time

If all of your comments are getting upvoted, and none are getting downvoted, you aren't being contentious enough. Divide people. Argue your point, forcefully, and let the people you think are wrong downvote you. It tells you more about t

Not at all. If I am trying to reverse engineer a bread recipe, and find CO2, I will have confirmed yeast may have been used. It's logically equivalent to "Scientists confirmed yeast could not be ruled out." That happens all the time. Ther

Yeah lets all keep our heads in the sand and only talk about how much dead propagandists loved puppies and eulogize them without mention of their flaws or extensive and subtle manipulations. That will show everyone how smart we are.

I think melatonin works really well for some people. If I take one mg melatonin, I sleep great, natural, and wake up 8 hours later, refreshed, ready to go, feeling like it's morning no matter what time it is.

You can't find other interviews with Dick Cheney, because he only let Russert, Limbaugh, and a few others interview him. Giving a few questions that skirt the real issues is exactly the problem. Then, Dick Cheney can say he had a tough int

To oblige you, here's your chance to downvote me again. :) I agree this shouldn't be here at all. But, given that it's here, we should say what's true about it, instead of letting the conventional wisdom be all thats heard. I thought di

Russert and Falwell are two heads of the same hydra. Falwell's job was to enflame the masses into voting against their economic interests, and Russert's was to pretend to be legitimate to give the most powerful and corrupt people cover. T

Millions of people die each day. This in itself is neither good or bad. Death is not some horrible thing. It's not good because he won't trouble me. It's good because all the thousands of people Americans are basically torturing overseas

I know the american tradition is to not speak ill of the dead. But I've never been one for tradition, so... One less fevered ego tainting our collective unconscious. Good. Fair to both sides of the aisle?. Which is why Dick Cheney prefer

This is fun. I haven't thought about this for a while. You are completely ignoring the experiential aspect of reality. Buddhism (at it's best, at it's worse it's as bad as the others) treats meditation as a science of interior experience.

I remember old Dracula movies, where they would find Dracula in his coffin then put a stake to his heart and hit it with a mallet. Microsoft must be looking at Snow Leopard like Dracula looks at that stake when he wakes from his unholy slum

I'd say it's a distillation, rather then a rehash, but I see what you mean.
