Serious / Re: Theresa May says the internet must now be regulated following last night« on: June 04, 2017, 09:19:22 AM »but they already mass collect data how does even more spy laws help? It doesn't. It'll drive extremists who are determined enough to go further underground, use more ip-hiding networks/whatever other methods there are to plan their acts without alerting the authorities. That in turn means the government will be more intrusive and suspicious of anyone otherwise innocent for using similar tools for other purposes, e.g. Tor, VPN's, Proxies and whatever other tools I don't know about. So the end result is the general public will have a lot less privacy (not that we had much left online what with GCHQ,NSA, and whatever laws that have now been brought in to legalise heightened internal security), and terrorists will have initially a harder time organising without being caught, but rogue lonewolf acts will still pass through the net regardless, and will likely increase as it becomes harder (these attacks highlighting this point - "three recent terror attacks in the UK were not linked by common networks" - so one group/individual goes ahead with his plan, and then other groups mobilise at the same time for maximum effect). This kinda sums it up; Quote The attack last night doesn't exactly need huge deep web forums and encrypted servers to plan. Three nutjobs rented a by-the-hour van, grabbed some knives and caused chaos. It's also fucking great that the Tories have tried to quickly sweep in pornography as part of the deal because everyone's too shocked about terrorism to make a fuss. 695

Serious / Re: So Trump is pulling the USA out of the Paris Accords« on: June 02, 2017, 08:03:11 AM »Global warming is fake, climate change isn't. Guess what, climate changes even if humans didn't exist.Yes, its natural. But the rate of change has been accelerated faster than sonic on chaos emeralds. Species around us do not have time to adapt to the changes and die off. Your grandchildren may never see certain fish or mammals. It doesn't even have to be the warming part of CO2 that fucks up the environment. Carbon gets regulated on Earth in the Carbon Cycle. Long story short, it goes in the atmosphere (naturally via volcanoes or artificially by us), gets absorbed by the ocean, deposits on the seabed and then gets shoved back in the Earth's crust to be eventually erupted again. Now that's all fine when you have steady state (Influx into Earth = Outflux to atmosphere), but when we add to it in such a short space of time when this process takes millions of years, is when we fuck over the system and clog up the processes. First, we fuck up the atmosphere. Currently we're at [/url=https://www.co2.earth/daily-co2]half the CO2 ppm levels[/url] as the Cretaceous period, back when glaciers were limited to mountains only, sea temperatures were a consistent 42 Celsius (y'know, Hurricane/Tornado/Cyclone weather), and the temperate climates at the Cretaceous Poles (i.e. about halfway up Greenland for comparison). Oh, and the seas were high. But we're nowhere near that, so that's great, right? Well, we're already fucking up the oceans too. Short of just warming the oceans which kills off corals, there's also the increased acidification as the oceans take in more Carbon, make more acid, etc, etc, which kills off anything that's sensitive to pH, fucks up reactions in the oceans, and generally makes things more shitty. I put those links up more for general reference rather than straight fact-checking, but the information's all there in journals if you can access them. Throughout my course in Geology, there's always a topic regarding this shit every year, and the data available supports more towards us fucking shit up than not (and in the cases of the opposite being supported, it's down to a reliability issues/lack of data for palaeoclimates). 698

The Flood / Re: How do you deal with stress?« on: May 29, 2017, 12:07:09 PM »
Usually it's work related, so I keep at it. The stress is coming from not knowing or understanding something, so the only remedy is to work at it until I do, or accept that it isn't my expertise, like maths. If it's a looming deadline, working will solve it, because doing something else to "remove" the stress doesn't actually do the job, it's making the deadline closer and the stress higher.
What I do doesn't really remove the stress, it just keeps me focused enough to work through it rather than freak out about it, get nothing done, and then have a bigger problem to solve later. For bigger things like planning for my future and jobs and all that depressing stuff, I follow the age-old plan of "I can't stress about it if I don't think about it". 700
Serious / Re: Autistic student plants bomb on London tube as a prank« on: May 27, 2017, 11:56:02 AM »Here's a more credible source http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-40059351 It's not an excuse, it can be an influential factor that can lead to shit like this, as it has before (There's other more reliable and impartial BBC links to this story, but this one is the most comprehensive). It doesn't mean every autistic/aspergers person is going to decide to do shit like this, but when you aren't thinking in your right mind, having an underlying mental condition isn't going to alleviate the problem. In Damon's case his symptom of obsessing over things got him obsessed with weapons a bit more so than a 12-year old does about guns-n-bombs-n-stuff. The dude got 15 years, I'd hardly say that was lenient because of his autism. He put a bomb on a train, simple as that. 701

I think the UK laws on driving are a bit mad. Not Finland mad, but you need a license for any form of bike, trailer, minibus, etc... basically anything that isn't a 5/7 seat car.
Meanwhile, my Dad has his license since the 90's and the day after he passed he drove a 2-ton truck down the M25 to London, and his license covers practically everything short of operating a tank. 707

I liked Prometheus. Wasn't an Alien-type film, but it wasn't trying to be. Only gripe is the crappy "Prometheus school of running away" meme.
Covenant was good. A bit rushed for time near the end though. The woman went from... Spoiler ...being pretty passive, pretty devastated by the death of her husband... Spoiler ...grabbing a gun and swinging around on the sky loader tether to kill the Xeno, with her swinging huge pair of balls between her legs. But then going back to the other way around once back on the ship! 716
Serious / Re: re: assumption of guilt for sexual assault, rape, and abuse« on: May 19, 2017, 12:22:01 PM »They were probably asking for it anyway. It just gets the uninformed and ignorant riled up because it implies that it was. Or it's because rapes were previously left unreported because the victim would get negativity thrown their way (slut-shaming or what have you), or the suspected rapist was someone of power or fame and would've been laughed or bribed out of court (See Jimmy Saville). Ironically I'd say it got worse when stuff like this came up where it's quoted; Quote Affirmative consent must be ongoing throughout a sexual activity and can be revoked at any time. which has been warped into something like this, where people believe you can revoke consent hours/days after the fact and most people wouldn't take that seriously. 717

When you then go on to say shit like this; Quote Well Sep7agon is gonna get its own video now. I'm not even sure how I'm going to start it. Quote Changed my mind. You guys aren't worth a video anyway, and quit posting shitty reaction gifs you stupid Asian bitch. Quote I'm only prejudice to those who give me shit anyway. Quote There isn't a single shred of humanity on this forum. Not even a little. Quote Nothing is harder, than trying to make a bunch of fucking idiots understand... Quote Do you not stop and think? Are you stupid? Quote You have no understanding, so just fuck off. Quote Kid... grow the fuck up. Quote These people wouldn't stand a chance in real life, I would be savage Deci to them and defend myself by burning them back with proper wordplay. That's just this thread alone. Chally in total has said <5 things in this whole thread, and none of them have been "God what a shite video, everyone shit on it" He linked it, made 3 sarcastic comments, and left it there. You're the one who's elevated this to drama-tier and could've been left with your first post. 1-2 pages tops, everyone would lose interest, and bam, shows over. C'mon man, it takes two to tango. You've been in self-depreciate mode since this thread began. Barely anyone gives a damn about your videos being posted here, they're on the internet because you want people to watch them and you haven't been forcing them down our throats. Get yer chin up and move on from it, because you care about this place and what we think waaaaaay too much. 719

If you can't take criticism or shit-talk from a small forum that about 30 people use, how would that translate when (and if) you made it big on youtube?
This place is far tamer than the rest of the internet and a shit-ton more than the youtube comments section. And I doubt anyone hates you. We want you to get a grip because you go off on a self-hating rage when something doesn't go your way, and here it never will. |
