Do these guys complain this much about releasing games on consoles too?

I'm pretty sure on Linux if you wanted to run Quake3 you had to run as root due to needing direct access to the GPU. Is Linux "retarded" too?

So, shouldn't you be in favor of the investigation into Biden? Since that is exactly what he did. "This plane's leaving in about 6 hours. If the prosecutor [investigating his son's firm] isn't fired, you're not

I wish my Computers and Society professor got the memo that you can get a degree just for showing up. Could have skipped that 20 page paper on software patents.

It launders and legitimizes their privilege. Presidents and supreme court justices only come from a handful of schools. This is why Joe Kennedy, the most wealthy and famous Catholic in America in his day, had his kids go to elite WASP schoo

At least Buzzfeed never tried to convince the American public that Iraq has weapons of mass destruction and therefor should be invaded and occupied. NY Times is already below Buzzfeed.

I'm just going by what the NYU College of Dentistry says. I assume they've thought a lot more about access to dental care than I have. >Dentists who are underrepresented minorities are more likely to serve communities in need a

Out of curiosity I just googled it, and yes, there is, and it's actually more serious than lack of diversity in adtech. If there aren't enough underrepresented minority applicants at Google, they will just have to hire an overrepr

Part of the pipeline problem is that you're not winning over the most high achieving minority students to stem. I remember there was a Mexican American woman in one of my calc classes that was easily the best student and smoked everyon

It's not punishment. The "most plausible scenario" is that he resigned "fully willingly".

Chris Lattner also wrote a compiler and gave it away, all without defending rape. Spare me.

I'm going to adopt this strategy. If you follow politics people will demand you pick a side which they can then use to attack you. If you just pretend to be stupid, it's harder for them to find an opening. Plus, pretending to be s

The Trump admin has been doing that stuff from day one with the "alternative facts" thing. I can't keep up with every unpresidential move these guys make. On the plus side, I did just see Trump just fired Bolton which makes w

I couldn't bring myself to even click on those. The media has cried wolf for so long with Trump, if I see a headline saying "Trump to start WW3", I'm just going to think, boy, the NY Times just keeps hitting new lows and

Regardless of one's opinion on Trump, the media basically switched from Russian conspiracy theories to recession paranoia in the span of about a week. That week being the time of Mueller's presentation to congress.

If your city has a bike share, try it out for a little while. The convenience of being able to drop off or pick up a bike anywhere is worth the clunkiness of bike share bikes for me.

No luck. I thought maybe it was cached somehow because of the way Facebook is linked from the start page, but so is Reddit, and putting Reddit in the hosts worked. Strangely, the hosts file doesn't seem to be read with Instagram either

It wasn't on by default, but yeah, once I turned it on, it entirely bypassed hosts for everything, not just Facebook owned domains.

I have a bunch of Facebook domains in my hosts, but for some reason Firefox 69.0 gets DNS from somewhere else and goes right through. Weird. The other stuff in hosts resolves correctly.

If not a single Republican voted for it that means the bill is entirely the responsibility of the Democrats. It is a bill created and passed exclusively by Democrats. The Democrats passed a Republican plan without one Republican vote. The D

It passed with not one vote from Republicans, so there was no need to compromise. Will your fake news post be downvoted? Of course not.

Why don't they just do what the NYPD did to protestors during the RNC? Unroll flexible plastic fencing around the protest and then mass arrest everyone inside the fence.

AGI is becoming like communism in that it seems theoretically possible, might usher in utopia or be really scary, and apparently intelligent people often believe in it. Along that line of thought one can imagine a scenario where some rogue

I like Apple's approach. When some scammy dev ran to the press with a sob story, Apple would expose all the shady shit the dev was doing. Sorry, but 99% of these whiney stories are the developer's fault. Don't violate the ter
