Right. And he donated to help eliminate gay marriage in California; to me, that counts as persecution.

Well, then, you are a fucking asshole.

What's ridiculous about it? People who would deny homosexuals the right to marry are reprehensible. It's not too hard to understand.

Not really, I just think you've done a very poor job of equating "a difference of opinion" with "civil rights". And that's really what it boils down to: the anti-same-sex marriage side is just wrong on this

I don't think any time I'd spend with those types of people could ever be meaningful. Honestly, they can say they're "not scared of gay people" all they want, but the actions of a person who would donate their mon

He donated money to prevent gay marriage. It's not really much of a stretch to conclude he's a homophobe. His intentions are pretty transparently obvious.

Wow. Coinbase's userbase is almost exclusively male. Just an interesting observation.

big-budget shows can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars per episode to make. HBO has very deep pockets.

An effective FTC and more widespread use of the Sherman act would be nice in the US.

Misrepresenting what happened in order to strawman it, and then self-posting it to HN. Fantastic way to get hits, I guess.

That's probably because he isn't really in charge of it. But he makes a better figurehead than the last bozo I guess.

Yeah except this time they absolutely deserve it.

There's a Supreme Court case that just finished up, too, which affirmed that Americans have the right to import these books. So, import away!

Ideal? Not at all. All it's doing is driving down the signal-to-noise ratio on Facebook, because the only things that can afford to throw bad money after bad money to reach users are massive corporations.

I fully expect ARM to take a huge chunk of Intel's sales over the next ten years. And not just in the mobile department, where they already dominate. I mean server rooms and even desktop PCs.

Sounds like a simple case of not enough stages. Promoters don't seem to care, either.
