Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

It's true that there was a nuclear deterrent, but the truth is that wars against major powers with nukes happen all the time (even if they never happen between them). Countries without nukes can fight against countries that have them without really any fear of reprisal, because no one ever wanted to use a nuke ever after Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
I'm not sure that's something you can litigate.
How dare you almost trick us into that

Dis fuckin guy
No really, you wanna talk about gender identity? Let's talk. (My brain.)
Also, not directed at you kaleedity, just in general. :P

I don't have a clue what he's talking about. The government isn't using phrenology to make predictions about where society is heading.
We use socio-economic data to make projections, but that's in no way darwinism.
Weaker and Weaker Bloodlines is a nonsense term. Idiocracy is kind of bullshit.
Anglo-Franco-Prusso-Scando-Scoto-Tahitian.
Why wouldn't you be able to litigate that? It certainly sounds like malpractice on it's face.
Iowa?
@jacobkosh
And course, Into Darkness
(i don't know why i used hapsburgs instead of habsburgs)
yeah if the facts are correctly stated its straight up malpractice
There was no reason beyond "EVERYONE MUST HAVE A GENDER ASSIGNED FROM BIRTH!" to do the surgery, it was completely unnecessary medically and the child could have decided at an older age whether he wanted to be a male or female
they just said "Fuck it, female" and chopped the twig and berries off, it sounds open and shut to me
Hah! It was all a clever ruse! Now I'll make jokes whose punchlines center on pernicious racial stereotypes!
So I'll talk about your... baked goods of low quality, and your... imperialism, and...
Gimme a while on this one.
DAMN THEM

seriously chopping a baby's penis off without any medical justification is kind of indefensible
Well, it wasn't me. As far as I know, that is.
Apropos nothing: I cried during Shawshank Redemption again. Bubbly, manly tears.
And red.
Like a lobster.
Television.
Television fixed Europe.
Europeans saw other Europeans on the TV and found out that they weren't that different from each other.
It's really interesting to me. I know very well how competent my compatriots are at dealing with gender issues outside the norm (read: most people here probably don't think this birth was possible) and I'm interested in what people locally think of this situation. That is, if I wasn't worried about absurd negative reactions.
I generally go with the dact that each people I am descended from has been conquered by at least one of the others. One of these days I'm going to sue my ass for reparations.
Pfft, you can't hold a battle in China without killing a few million people. Like six of the top ten bloodiest wars take place in China. And that's excluding WWII.
after reading the rest of the article, yeah, there's more specific details that make the malpractice obvious
AYRES v ODERA [2013] EWHC 40 (QB)
Courts expect drivers to be aware
that their vehicles can hurt people,
and to act accordingly. When a
pedestrian is hit while behaving in an
unusual way, however, it becomes
more difficult to establish primary
liability and contributory negligence.
The facts
Mr Ayres and his friends had been
drinking in Leicester city centre,
and were walking to a nightclub.
Ayres began ‘larking about’. He left
his friends and walked out into the
middle of a single lane road in front
of a moving car, driven by Mr Odera,
and dropped his trousers. Odera
stopped. Ayres then continued to
walk across the road in front of the
car. Odera drove off and, as he did
so, his car hit Ayres, who fell and hit
his head on the kerb. Odera’s car also
ran over Ayres’s leg.
The decision
Odera argued that even though his
vehicle had struck Ayres, primary
liability should not attach to him.
He had been faced with driving
conditions which were far from
ordinary, and was entitled to try to
extricate himself from the situation.
He relied upon the decision of the
Court of Appeal in North v TNT
Express (UK) Ltd.
The claimant in North had also been
drinking. When a lorry driver refused
to give him a lift, he climbed onto
the front bumper of the lorry, holding
onto a windscreen wiper rather than
an adjacent handle, and refused
to get off. The driver moved off
slowly, with the intention of driving
a short distance and trying again
to persuade him to get down. The
windscreen wiper became detached,
and although the driver braked
immediately, the claimant was struck
by the lorry.
In North, the defendant was placed
in a dilemma because the claimant
behaved in an “offensive and
thoroughly irresponsible fashion,”
and had been pulling at the
windscreen wiper when it became
detached. The Court of Appeal held
that, in all of the circumstances, there
had not been a breach of the duty to
take reasonable care.
In this case, however, the court
felt that Ayres did not create any
immediate danger when he moved
across the front of the car, because
it was stationary. It should have been
apparent that he might take longer
than usual to walk past as he was
inebriated and could not move freely
with his trousers around his ankles.
Odera could have avoided any risk by
remaining stationary until the claimant
had moved clear of the vehicle. He
was therefore liable.
However, the court found that Ayres
was also at fault. He deliberately
placed himself in the road in front of
the vehicle. He should have known
that traffic lights ahead were likely
to change and Odera would want
to move forward. It was Ayres’s
inability to move at a normal speed
that led Odera to misjudge his
position and mistakenly to believe
that he could pass by without striking
him. Contributory negligence was
assessed at 20%.
It's one of those situations where there is a legitimately interesting discussion to be had but realistically it would devolve very quickly the second some mouth-breathing hateful bastard speaks.
EDIT: Also, wut?

That sucks.
Ok, I've never seen this app before, giving it a shot. Apparently they press save and no file appears on disk. Simple enough. I grab the source from our server and take a look.
Let's see if you guys can spot the coding error.
private void SaveFile(String filePath) { // TBI - [Coworker's name] 08/10/2008 }It's actually from pedigree following in horse racing and me slipping a bit because I'm starting some real work. You haven't been right about one of your clarifications, why bother trying AMFE?
I'll talk with you about it in detail later, Will, but the main position of mine I wanted to make clear was thinking that technology would put an end to evolution doesn't really have a firm grasp on how selective breeding works, and understand how and that natural selection has been occurring for millennia.
Of course, I've learned from history and wouldn't look for genetically superior individuals in a Mendelian sense, I just feel individuals should be given the ability to achieve to the best of their abilities, and that man was not born to serve, but chooses to obey.
Again, thisis pretty tough for me to write on my phone, and I'm gonna handicap a few races do some calls. Feel free to make a thread with whatever papers you feel debunk Darwinism/greater Meme theory and I'll be very interested in participating.
