It's a very biased article though.

> You can’t just deny immigration in every country in the world and have the worlds oppressed and poor floating in international waters.

Well, you can and even much worse. Depending on how bad the migrant crisis get, we might well see that much worse. Those boats that the coastguard don't get to in time... yeah.

You meant to say 'delightful smorgasbord' of a language.

Don't worry; I'll forgive your insolence this time.

Managers have got to make it look like they are doing something, eh.

All these years and different flavours, and there's still something 'not right' with all Linux UIs.

Font rendering is one issue, but there's something else that I can't quite put my finger on.

We're talking about the UK here.

Ain't no sunshine.

Exactly. It's a quadruple whammy:

1. Most residences not being suitable for significant generation.

2. The return on investment is decades long (yes, so is double glazing, but that is useful for far more households), not that most households can afford it at all.

3. The total generation capacity is piddle, especially for government investment.

4. The materials that go into making PV panels are horrible to extract.

I'm not saying PV panels are useless, but they are not much of anything. Not something my lecturers at uni liked hearing/reading, but lo and behold pretty much nothing substantial has changed since. They're too busy blowing Sustainable Development smoke up their own arses though.

The issue there is that there are a few very vocal renewable energy proponents who just don't get that at all.

Merely mention 'hydrogen' and they go into a tirade.

Though really, the biggest issue is apathy.

While they are aggressive, it is optional and you are trying to avoid their revenue source. So there's reason to be so picky.

I just fast-forward or the the sponsorship segments out if they are too annoying.

Sometimes it's just better to settle for good enough, or in this case pretty damn good.

But no, some of you want the most convenient way. Only this time, that's painted a massive target on the back of what you want.

Which just paints an even bigger target on it.

When it was on its own website and hosted on its own servers, with mostly word of mouth (online) spreading it, Nintendo were probably not too happy, but accepting that it was legal.

But when Valve, who are sort of competing with Nintendo, host it and promote, that's another matter. Especially when many people do play games using it that they have not legally obtained.

Or, you know, it's just all symbolism.

The point is that what you swear is important to you and something you wouldn't want to let down.

I'm not sure why you are so upset about this.

Working for me and BoardGameGeek does not have a paywall.

You're either rewarded by the CCP in some way, or a useful idiot for them.

Having seen the absolute dire code some programmers put out (some being very well paid for it too); I'm very glad there are far fewer doctors like that and those that turn that way lose their accreditation and get shamed out of the field.
