If Gmail doesn't have your real identity, you're breaking their usage agreement. Google wants only real names attached to Gmail accounts. They're lax in enforcing that rule, but that's what they want, and someday they might purge all the psuedonyms away.

No, but nice try. :)

I'm pseudonymous online — 'Remus Shepherd' is not my real name, but it's the name I have used online for 18 years. Finding out my real name is not difficult, but I like separating the two. At a minimum it keeps advertisers at bay.

Damn you people are fast. I realized my error about one minute after I hit Submit, then edited my post to make more sense. Kinja really needs a 'Review before posting' button. :)

Half a Gig of RAM? Is that useful? I don't know much about tablet RAM sizes. It needs at least 32 Gig of storage to compete, though.

You believe in a much better human race than I do, I'm afraid. In the world I've seen, people *do* care whether their next door neighbor is gay, and they want him to die for it. That's why the closet exists.

It is not a matter of shame, it's a matter of whether or not you can be persecuted for your actions or beliefs. How can you say it's okay to strip the anonymity of a pedophile, but not okay to strip the anonymity of a rape victim, a closeted homosexual, or a whistleblower? You might take this on a case-by-case

It's ripping the mask off of someone who is not a criminal, but whose behavior you disagree with. Can you see how that can go wrong?

I did have something to lose, I was outted over my sexuality, and it nearly destroyed my life.

Somewhere, a religious man is thinking that he can't wait for the law to catch up to God's word. Somewhere, a patriarch is thinking that he can't wait for the law to catch up to a rape accuser's false charges.

Sure — to the police. Not publicly.

Look, I understand the urge to hold people accountable for their actions and stop creeps, trolls, and predators. All that is good and righteous.

She should be freaking out. She should also be getting tested. The test unfortunately involves a spinal tap, which is enough to make people freak out all by itself.

My main activity in dreams is fighting. Fighting bugs, demons, supervillains, my father — fighting is mostly what I dream about. And because I dream lucidly I've gotten very, very good at fighting in them. I would totally pwn Dennis Quaid in Dreamscape.

I don't have a problem lucid dreaming. Where I have a problem is in not using too many superpowers while lucid dreaming, lest I break my suspension of disbelief and wake up.

At what point does it stop being an Easter Egg and start making the program worthless? Maybe I really didn't know what the Matrix was about; Siri wouldn't help me any.

This battle actually happened in the fanfic Fallout: Equestria. The unicorn won. (She detonated a nuclear megaspell under the grey goo's center.)

His natural looks aren't the cause of your impression. As a physicist myself, I have to say that the choice of eyewear and hairstyle is everything. Unkempt hair only looks good on scientists and hobos, and hobos don't wear professor Peabody-style glasses.

It should be named 'Jurassic Pigeon Coop'.
