For strong womyn everywhere: "Internet Plus Equality"

[FAST6191]

So for tertiary education a 78, 22 split where http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/00000.html says the US population is 77.7% white.

Me thinks that the author may wish to read up on the concept of statistics.

Is there still a legacy? Well given my grandparents were adults, indeed birthing my parents by this point, during the US Civil Rights Movement and basic stats/logic (have your grandparents ever got you a job? Supported your education?.... or indeed basic grandparent hypothesis in evolution) then it is all but certain. Likewise it may take quite some time to even out -- most of the wealth creation would have happened in a time where safety, environmental concerns, the need to provide pensions... (all expensive gigs, though still ones that probably want to be put ahead of pure profit) were not such a concern.

Edit
Pingouin7 I must thank you for linking that site. There is some genuine stuff there but the signal to noise ratio is skewed so far towards hilariously bad (and thus very amusing) that it was a wonderful read this evening.

Getting mixed signals in this comic(?).

Let me take the Ferguson shooting as an example: was the fact that a white cop shot a black person racist, was the fact that media reported on "white shot black" racist, was the fact that people protested the act of "white shot black" and it's handling racist, was all of that racist, was none of it racist, or am I simply way to white and therefore racist?

Wait, torrents aren't P2P now? I have met some people espousing the concept before (usually along the lines of "Ew, gnutella/shareaza, dirty p2p stuff. I use torrents".

Also yeah, damn legit advertisers wanting to steer clear of shady torrent sites.

Anyway I had never actually seen one of those before, I would be willing to give it the benefit of the doubt and think that maybe some of the stuff without the fundamental technical misunderstandings could have touched upon something.

Finally, reported for linking torrent sites.

Ok, show of hands: who has seen adds on any shady sites (as which I usually label this kind of torrent sites) in the last five years aka. wanted to test if their antivirus snakeoil works? But I guess tools like Ad-Block and No$cript are to be shunned for being anti-inclusive.

Also: While there is a chance this has already been posted (even though a thread search suggested otherwise): Warning: If you have at least a basic understanding of programming languages don't read this while drinking anything: https://gitorious.org/c-plus-equality/c-plus-equality/, the first really working programming language that is based on feminist principles. Also be sure to read the code examples.

Also quite informative: how bitbucket was "asked" to take C+= own: https://bitbucket.org/site/master/issue/8629/harassing-repository#comment-7380632 (at first they resisted as it wasn't against their TOS, but then they caved, changed the TOS, banned C+=. YAY.)

That is some effort put into making a joke. Mind you it would probably end up a great esoteric language.

Denial isn't just a river in Egypt.

Spoiler

An estimated 3.5% of adults in the United States identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual and an estimated 0.3% of adults are transgender.

The Williams Institute


I'm really curious how 99.7% isn't considered the default.

Critical misunderstandings, an obvious lack of research, and a farcical conclusion? From Beatta Anita? Say it ain't so!

Too bad she took down her original Bayonetta video where she reveals that she didn't understand the game at all and argued for segregated bussing after people called her on her shit. Also, too bad the internet never forgets.

Whaaatttt ohhh nooo ads are targeting the main demographic of users who go on that site , how dare they !!! (adblock doesnt exist her world)

On a serious note, was there any reason for her to make that video, ads aren't going to try and appeal to the minority.

There is a fair body of research that says profanity lessens pain.... hmm.
