It doesn't matter if you assume he doesn't have "some random hacking program". The rules of good computer security are p. clear. You wait for a specialist.

It's not about a warrant, it's about cyber-security. It's just plain terrible security practice to do that rather than to wait to bring in a forensic specialist who can do it on a more closed system.

Harmon elaborates, "As the episodes go by, the more kind of relativistic sci-fi premises we explore, the more we sort of walk Morty and the audience down the road of, 'If we can jump off the cliff and as we're about to hit the pavement clone ourselves so that only our clones hit the pavement, but they were really us…

Homeland Security Investigations.

Don't you check the photos on Glass by plugging it into a computer? I'm pretty sure that it's against procedure to just plug shit in without taking precautions.

No, he was questioned by the relevant government authorities (Piracy is part of DHS's purview because ICE is under the DHS Umbrella) after he was caught pointing a recording device at a film screen.

Sorry, I mis-typed. I meant Moffat's run on Doctor Who.

Because it's got all the same problems as Moffat's run on Sherlock, and Moffat's the one that's really been pushing the "Celebration of a Great Man" angle.

I think it is trivializing it. First off, very few of these people are actually sick because very few of them presumably have these traits to the point that it's pathological. Second it kind of perpetuates the myth that the mentally ill are somehow more creative and insightful than normal people, which just plain…

As an actual, medicated psychotic this makes me kind of mad even though it does make sense as an extension of the steady development towards the idea of a "spectrum" in lieu of the older binary conception of symptoms.

See, no. Those people generally do not actually exist. Generally what happens, in my experience, is that people write off people who disagree with them as "smug hipster twats" in a ludicrously simplistic way because that means being able to avoid introspection about what they're into.

Scientifically speaking, the answer is almost certainly no. In fact, spoilers actually increase the pleasure most people derive from viewing. So suck it up, dum dums.

I think that the whole MLP "thing" is done a disservice due to the sexist nature of a lot of the criticism. Watching My Little Pony is weird because it's a show for small children, not because it's a show for small girls, and we should be heaping the same amount of scorn on people who still watch Disney films.

No, a lot of it is depressingly unironic. In fact, a lot of Bronies actually hate the concept of irony and bristle about "Hipsters".

Ray sexually harassing Cyril is something that he's done before though. Everyone at ISIS has no real respect for sexual boundaries.

See, this episode is dumb as fuck. I mean WELP. KEITH OLBERMANN. DOING SPORTS. WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT. WE'RE
BOTH BIG FANS OF OLBERMANN, EVEN THOUGHT WE APPARENTLY DON'T KNOW THAT
HE'S BEEN DOING SPORTS COVERAGE SINCE 1992, EVEN ALONGSIDE HIS
NON-SPORTS MATERIAL.

I wasn't joking. Their patents are really messed up. One of the the least awful ones allows them to evaluate how many people are in the room and what they're doing for the purposes of deciding how much to bill you for on-demand video.

I don't think the left actually does that though. Especially since the left is pretty much disenchanted with Obama on every issue. I think it's perceived that way because a lot of the criticism is racist and a lot of people don't want to admit that that's a factor.

The system is fundamentally broken, sure. Especially the prison system, which seems to basically be a recidivism generator designed to provide free labor, but on the other hand a lot of criticism of Obama is genuinely racist because it's coming from Republicans, and whether the people parroting the talking points are…

Did I fall for a troll? I've been drinking steadily since it's the holidays, so I might've fucked up.
