JayleneSlide, to politics in Meet the Anti-Feminist Women's Group Leveraging Their 'Independence' to Convince Americans to Vote Republican

“I got mine, fuck you.” With a little dash of “Nothing like the afternoon delight of some bootlicking.”

I know plenty of staunchly feminist women whose entire personae (or life goal) is the 50s US housewife fantasy. But, that’s still a matter of self-determination. Nothing about the GOP’s actions indicate self-determination is part of their platform, except for oligarchs. This is yet another play in their ongoing Big Lie Tactic: tell a big enough lie enough times, and people will start to believe it.

Copyright infringement, DRM circumvention, and “hacking.”

See: Aaron Swartz

On January 6, 2011, Swartz was arrested by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) police on state breaking-and-entering charges, after connecting a computer to the MIT network in an unmarked and unlocked closet and setting it to download academic journal articles systematically from JSTOR using a guest user account issued to him by MIT. Federal prosecutors, led by Carmen Ortiz, later charged him with two counts of wire fraud and eleven violations of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, carrying a cumulative maximum penalty of $1 million in fines, 35 years in prison, asset forfeiture, restitution, and supervised release.

Negative. I worked in pharmaceutical automation, management, and auditing software, specifically tracking and auditing (read: “near real-time chain-of-custody”) of delivery of Schedule II and cancer drugs from institutional (“enormous”) pharmacies. It was actually rather fascinating work, as are most compliance automation software suites.

Maybe they’re competing with Samsung for shittiest Android overlay? I used to be an Android developer for mission-critical software. We devs all had a large spread of devices for testing, and I would dread the Samsung and Huawei testing. One of them was always on my shit list, with the other keeping pace.

JayleneSlide, to world in Yacht sinks after latest incident involving orcas in strait of Gibraltar

There is no standard definition, though the term generally applies to vessels with a cabin intended for overnight use. To be termed a yacht, as opposed to a boat, such a pleasure vessel is likely to be at least 33 feet (10 m) in length and may have been judged to have good aesthetic qualities.

That said, I’m all for training and arming the cetaceans.

JayleneSlide, to world in Barcelona is parched — and angry at quenched tourists

Yes, we live on a ocean-going sailboat, so we have tight metrics on consumption rates for everything. The 4.5 number comes from our average monthly consumption.

Average water consumption stats make my head spin. According to the article, Barcelona residents use an average 99 liters per person per day. 0_0 I know the residential averages in America are even more horrific, something like 50 to 150 gallons PPPD, depending on locale.

What the hell is everyone doing with all of that water?! My partner and I use 4.5 gallons PPPD. And it’s that high because we hand wash our dishes (no place to put a dishwasher).

The maintenance on the steel hull would require a return to territorial waters, at which point you’ll need registration (read: taxes). The tender you use to resupply would also require registration and often insurance to enter into marinas.
