   Consent is irrellevant. We have a society specifically to police each other. And because we suck at both policing each other and achieving consensus and cooperation, we have government. In terms of profanity, if someone says "man, I ha

   What you're talking about are ego defenses. And yes, it is in part projection. But the two cases are different. When you see one person who is personally or socially powerful, and that person is a champion of one thing you strongly bel

   Your argument is shit. (Another Linus quote) And here's why. "I'm a bastard. I have absolutely no clue why people can ever think otherwise. Yet they do. People think I'm a nice guy, and the fact is that I'm a schem

    What counts as a tech conference? I don't see most industry conferences or sub-genres like hacker conferences. Also, I notice you're dynamically loading content on every page view? Do schedules change every few seconds, or couldn&

    And you should talk to cops about the effectiveness of attackers with blades against a trained officer with a holstered weapon closer than 21 feet. But both those and the pepper spray/taser fails are outliers, they are not the norm. In

    The care and use of a gun (especially in combat, in close quarters and urban environments) adds multiple layers of complexity. I would rely on multiple layers of complexity for defense, since that's how modern security design works. A

    Okay, so that question was too specific. New question: is the reason one might want to have a gun in an emergency simply to be able to injure, maim or kill someone regardless of a specific reason? If you say it's "for defense&quot

    I guess this prompts two questions: 1. Just what are you prepping for? 2. Are you willing to kill someone to protect your few months' supply of baked beans?

    Linux? Or a Chromebook. They'll only be able to do like, two things with it, but at least Google has tools that replace most office-type apps. I'm going to say Chromebook is the slower but simpler solution.
