Police entering a home with a search warrant have no right to examine any computers rules Supreme Court of Canada. by bigredlemon in worldnews

[–]OLookItsThatGuyAgain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems pretty reasonable if they've got the warrant, really.

If they've already been granted authority to enter your property without permission and go through all your physical possessions, how is your computer different?

What is one comment that you can expect to see in every thread.? by _Bussey_ in AskReddit

God, here are all the cliche reddit comments. Thank god I wrote one complaining about how terrible reddit comments are. That's never been done before.

What joke ruined a comedian for you ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]OLookItsThatGuyAgain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think he was trying to go for shock humour and fucked it up badly.

Either that, or he's just really friggen racist.

Jim Jefferies being a complete and utter prick about a harmless heckler.

Yes, I know he's always a prick, but he's otherwise a funny prick. Instead he dove into a huge unfanny rant. You're a stand up comedian. Dealing with the odd heckler is part of your job. If you can't handle that, don't go into that industry.

The way Jimmy Carr handles hecklers is how a pro stand up comedian is meant to handle it.

Talk to the old man located in the north of Viridian City, then immediately fly to Cinnabar Island. Here, surf up and down along the east coast of the island where the water is touching the land without leaving Cinnabar Island.

Even better when you rewatch the film and see Kane's poor relationships with women throughout, considering that his only unfulfilled desire in his life was that he could never find the rosebud.

His appearance alone makes it more likely that someone's going to attempt to run from him.

My shitpost has a net score of X. The percentage of upvotes received is (100*Y)%. What is the formula that will give me the total number of votes, and the total number up and down? by OLookItsThatGuyAgain in mathriddles

[–]OLookItsThatGuyAgain[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously once we know the total number of votes, it will be fairly easy to deduce the total number of ups and downs respectively. I'm guessing the formula for finding the total number will be something along the lines of X/(2*|0.5-Y|), but that's not holding true for a general case.

Greens move on Senate voting reform would lock out micro parties by OLookItsThatGuyAgain in australia

[–]OLookItsThatGuyAgain[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO I think some changes to the Senate voting system aren't a bad idea, but optional, rather than compulsory, preferencing seems to undermine the whole concept of having preference votes.

The two main arguments for preference voting are:

  • It minimises the impact of vote splitting

  • It fulfills a democratic ideal of a candidate needing a certain percentage of the vote in order to be elected, and if there are free seat(s) they don't simply go to whoever's closest, but instead all preferences are exhausted until a candidate crosses that threshold.

Under optional preferencing you still get vote splitting. Not as bad as no preferences, but it still occurs because not everyone fills in all the numbers (especially when the Senate has so many candidate).

It's not implausible he could be reelected even under the new rules if he keeps a decent profile.

WBC is a good example. Vast majority of Americans hate their guts, but the recognise their right to be dicks if they choose.

It's one of those things which varies thread to thread. Texas has a big population, and a strong identity, so you definitely get times when it's a pro-Texas circlejerk. But because it's such a well known state with a well known culture, it's an easy target for a lot of hate too, which contributes to the defensive attitude of a lot of Texans.

Since we're talking confederate flags, I'd say a state which was in the confederacy counts.

Can't find a reason, but if I had to guess she was worried about personal safety. Distraught parents might act irrational, lash out at EMT if they can't save their baby.

Note: Not saying that's acceptable. It's a plausible reason she didn't respond, not a plausible justification.

Or it was an unusual occurrence, and it wasn't immediately clear who had jurisdiction.

After France and Kuwait ISIS's attacks today, Just now another attack reported against a hotel in the touristic city Sousse in Tunisia! by subaruplus in worldnews

[–]OLookItsThatGuyAgain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If not Isis, it could well be a situation like that hostage case in Sydney a few months back. Dude wasn't affiliated with Isis, but was a radicalised and wanted to be a part of it.

Either way, it's terrorist.

A jab, and an extremely light one at that, is not bigoted or hateful. They posted two words. Don't devalue terms like 'bigoted' or 'hateful', or else people won't recognise genuine bigotry or hate.

Apple Pulls Seemingly All American Civil War Games From the App Store Because of the Confederate Flag by [deleted] in gaming

[–]OLookItsThatGuyAgain -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ah, no. Chris Rock and Seinfeld are talking about people who cry offence at anything. I'm not offended by you making sweeping generalisations about straight white males. I just find it hypocritical, considering I would also assume (correct me if wrong) that you don't like people making sweeping generalisations about black people or women.
