I didn't say it's got proof. I said it's got more proof than the Russia-Trump connection.

So, for negative conclusions about Assange we need to apply Occam's razor (if he's innocent why didn't he turn himself in), but for positive conclusions about him we need to avoid that and invent more and more complex, evasiv

And all they had to do was let him answer those questions. But they didn't let him until very recently. And soon after the interview they're dropping the charges. I will help you with your failure to understand: the worst scenario

At the time, Sweden was a better candidate for extradition because it has less limitations on extradition than UK in Assange's case (because he is a Commonwealth citizen). As for the 'if he was innocent', I see this argument

Yes, the 'how' is similar between the two, but 'why' and 'to what extent' are not. Like I said, in China primary motivator was improving literacy rate. The number of simplified characters (3500 out of 7000) clo

Japanese change was just a codification of simplified forms already widely used in handwriting, and is rather limited in number (cca 370 characters). Chinese switch was motivated by the desire to improve literacy in the country, which was t

There is a lot of shady stuff with Japan and USA surveillance. Japan has started fingerprinting all non-citizens in 2007. at immigration checkpoints in airports and harbors: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J-BIS The winn

It didn't just 'jump the shark' recently, it was designed with this goal in mind.

Sony's main motivation in providing OtherOS functionality was, as always, money. By being able to run alternative OSes PS3 was classified as a computer and not a console for tax purposes, and Sony had to pay less tax because of that. I

The main issues that drive hacking are 1) running homebrew/reusing hardware and 2) region free games. Manufacturers who enable both in some form see less hacking done on their consoles. Of course, hacking with piracy as the main goal a

The guy puts out a tweet daily while dropping a turd in the morning. Are you really trying to drum this up as something special and resource-hogging?

The primary motivation for rooting the phone in order to be able to modify the hosts file was to block ads in ad-supported free apps. Another low-tech method for achieving this was to put the phone into airplane mode while using the apps. W

By using the word 'standard' you're trying to legitimize something that's fully encrypted, impossible to code-audit and fully under control of Intel, while pretending to be your property and controlled by you. So yes, it

Yes, that's why I mention dishonesty in my original post. Most people who argue hard for not eating meat because of climate change actually have deeper motives (animal welfare/not causing animals suffering), and will use whichever

I made a slight mistake in the post, in "I feel I have a moral value to take care of myself and my health primarily" It should be 'moral obligation' instead of 'moral value'. I also feel deeply about helping t

Yes, I am fine with that idea. I do not like the subsidies either. However I think that the subsidies game is even deeper, and that it's responsible for many more negative things than just making for cheap meat - most processed food to

I agree with you as well. I dream of living a rural life and raising my own food, both because then I would know that my animals weren't injected/fed with anything unhealthy, and because I could make sure they lived a nice life an

I do not want to be a rich person, nor live a rich lifestyle. I lead a simple life, have simple and inexpensive hobies, and don't really spend money on things. Eating animal products is one of rare things where I cannot accept a compro
