  1. Usually it's just addressing the "cartoons/anime are for kids" mentality. To that I simply state "since when do kids shows have R rated gore?" and this mention of an R rating is enough to stimulate further conversation. Then I usually point them towards elfen lied ep 1. What the F comments are common at this point but they're hooked.
  2. "There's no communication with people anymore, everything is done by instant communication" The kindest way to put this is that you sound like one of those people who posts those cartoons where kids are poking a book questioning what it is. It's an ageist concept designed to relegate the younger generations communication methods as lesser of importance due to their speed and brevity. If you question that statement, you will first have to ask yourself how an email is not communication while postal mail is. Moving on, old world times: Parents could actually be a parent and use classical conditioning on their child in public to approval of others (compared to now with the no smack laws) I could go wherever I wanted, as long as I was back before dark (streetlights on) We'd freely leave bicycles on our front lawn without them being stolen. The biggest change Is not the PC, it is the cellphone. But that's not what's made it all different. Population has been exploding in most of our more "developed" countries. With that anonymity became a factor, and opportunity based crimes went from "nah I know that guy" to "who the hell is that? F him it's mine" The other thing of note is the value of honour. Back then your word meant something. Nowadays due to the anonymity factor we have tons of bold liars.
  3. That is not trolling. It is: -Violation of Blizzard's EULA -Federal Cybercrime as defined as "criminal activities that specifically target a computer or network for damage or INFILTRATION" -A cryptlocker style virus, which I cannot possibly post enough expletives to describe how stupid it is to make as they've taken down entire hospitals before resulting in loss of life. -Debugger attempt is a worm style virus. All of the above point me towards telling people that if koby were to take your information to the authorities, I believe there is still a standing 30k bounty on heads like yours which would solve server costs for a long time.
  4. A hue change of an NPC from a game I play, that counts as derivative content and became mascot of my ingame "gang" for a while (before we got a bad wall-e knockoff)
  5. Fair call, I assumed you meant PC for your watching. The grace time in between episodes is usually good for a quick toilet trip/snack run for me, so I wonder if for keeping things original, you could set up a "skip these chapters" option in your media centre? It might not be good for older h264 files, but if you're doing your own edits then I'd assume you're able to quickly punch a few of these in for end of intro (and possibly beginning of credits) Alternatively, separate files in a subfolder for extras/previews. Sorry to press into this, I just feel that the original format should be preserved as much as possible.
  6. With the case of XSS attacks, it's direct malicious code injection and that opens up an interesting legal loophole. Your computer has been attacked and files have been injected. This is a federal crime (same as a virus maker) that can pop up the Exclusionary rule which is constitutional law. But this also directly challenges the fourth amendment under : "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized." It states that probable cause is NOT enough for a warrant, unless it has a description of exactly what is expected to be found and where. Illegally obtained evidence is referred to as "evidence acquired by violating a person's constitutional protection against illegal searches and seizures; evidence obtained without a warrant or probable cause" In this case, probable cause is a completely unknown and because the security of the hard drive has already been compromised, no files can be proven to belong to the user, nor can they be disproved as a plant. TLDR> bill of rights says no.
  7. For some shows where it shares nothing, it isn't so bad doing this. For others, there are often key differences, even scenes that plain don't pop up as they've been cut that may be seen within the small glimpse of the previews. I think if you're binge watching that bad, what's the harm in clicking next ep?
  8. I believe swear words are filler words, that serve best in speech rather that written form, because the emphasis provides a lot of context. Example case: Someone says "You staring at me?" You reply "Fuck" - Regardless of above context, can be: -Sexual invitation with upwards inflection, -Resignation to inevitable perceived conflict said long and drawn out -Questioning when said quickly and in a higher pitch (more often with "da" in front) The context can go in many directions beyond this, and I often find those who are so against swearing, are usually narcissists who have issues understanding these context cues. Rather than admit a potential flaw in their self, they would rather relegate things they don't understand as "stupid" than to admit this lack of comprehension. And so they label them words of ignorance, as that's all they have the capacity for. This is most clearly evidenced by the ones that show hostility at swear words in conversations they are not a part of. The irony of this statement is that some of them will be offended, and in being offended confirm their own narcissism. Ain't it some beautiful shit?
  9. At a young age (below 10), teach them how to block. And then lead them onto how to counter hit following a block. If you teach them how to punch people outright, they will punch people. Nobody's kid is perfect, and maintaining calm focus during these years - it's plain not going to be 100% of the time (temper tantrums) and you'd be naive to think otherwise. Now at a slightly older age or after a few too many fights (10+) then you can teach them about striking. At this point they at least have the capacity to realize they will be creating trouble in an emotional state. They're concerned with their image. They understand consequences fully enough to make a call that attacking is not a good idea to get what they want. The easiest way to explain this is that anyone can throw a punch in anger, but it takes a calm mind to not be hurt yourself. So you want to train this instinct, self preservation, with avoiding injury above disabling the attacker. To avoid injury you must remain calm. And being calm is the essence of self defense.
  10. 12:00 on the dot is noon, but by the time we can conceive of it changing (less than a second) it's already after-noon. So 12pm being 12:00 - don't think of it like that. 00:00 is midnight, 12am as the counter starts there. So it makes sense to have 12pm as noon as otherwise you'd have two different AM 12's I hope this helps
  11. Wondering how I get into the IRC nowadays

  12. Leech Leech Seed Seed hearts for no greed

  13. http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/177448-turok-dinosaur-hunter-nintendo-64-screenshot-an-angry-dinos.png That's a pic of turok, hope it helps for the comparison
  14. While first choice would be sephiroth's masamune with alucard's anti freak guns a close second - superhuman strength is needed to wield. So for actually usable - if ANY weapon, the huge tank from desert punk that's only defeated due to being outsmarted. If handheld only, goku's power pole as it defies laws of physics and leverage is always an excellent strength multiplier
  15. This exactly, one use of omega blaster would leave nothing left of the hulk, save his shorts due to this being the dbz universe of indestructible clothing
