The notion that *if* it had been left unattended in a bathroom, some rando could have thought it was a bomb. People seem to gloss over the fact that Ahmed had the clock with him the whole day. :dork:

Just wanted to let you guys know that I am currently soldering a CPU in my studio right now. It boasts a record breaking 0.00089nm architecture based on my patent pending, gold-plated diamond transistor design. Ahmed doesn't know what he's up against. :dts:

In all seriousness, I think the damage to the general quest for innovation will be far more er, damaging, than all the shit surrounding this specific incident. As I said before, school should be a place where children are encouraged to foster their curiosity and work from it. Personally I am of the opinion that it's more about stepping on them until their will to do anything but conform expires, but slap my ass and call me a cynic bastard. A lot of inventions have been fraught with peril. Chemists have blown themselves up, electricians have electrocuted the fuck out of themselves, machinists have lost limbs, etc. Where does this idea that life is an immaculate white walk-way come from? If you want cool shit, you have to go get it. Sometimes that involves danger. :eek: Won't somebody please think of the children?!

I am more concerned with the fact that what some rando uninformed cunt fucking shit-stain thinks about something they know nothing about would be guiding public discourse.

Ugh, yeah that's disgusting. One more reason to lose faith in humanity.
Doesn't shift me from my point that the initial reaction from the school and police was a knee-jerk one.
