LARPing has gotten a wee bit more serious since last time I checked !  Biggrin

"He told the BBC that Jimmy F was active on the forum, but had been acting independently when he engaged in something they call LARPing (Live Action Role Playing), which involves "infiltrating and baiting" individuals who may be planning attacks in Europe."

Brilliant BBC article on the end of an era. Growing up with Cassini-Huygens, the 15th is going to be an emotional goodnight.

It landed in the mountains. It's a tourist area, so it sees a good amount of population, but I don't know if it affected visitors to the waterfall or where I went camping last month.

There were 2 people aboard and they both died. I heard on the radio this morning that they were both identified.

Beginning in 2018, California will tender harsher penalties for pronoun-violations than for knowingly infecting someone with HIV

It is clear that the California Gov. has his priorities mixed up.

Yes, pronoun-violations are rude, but that's about it; it won't kill anybody.

On the other hand, knowingly infecting someone with HIV is pretty close to poisoning.

Also, this quote from the article:
Quote:“The most effective way to reduce HIV infections is to destigmatize HIV,” Weiner told CNN. “To make people comfortable talking about their infection, get tested, get into treatment.”

I mean, sure that may very well be the case. But, what does that have to do with knowingly/deliberately infecting people with it? Those two things are very different.

Oh well. I guess nowadays a mild offense is considered worse that damaging someone else's health with an incurable disease .
