The difference between you and the father is that you'd willingly kill someone. It's implied in the article that the father didn't kill him on purpose. To me, being a murderer is worse than being a child molester.

That's not true. I wouldn't kill someone (on purpose) for molesting a family member.

If you're talking about the father, then I support what he did to defend his daughter. I don't, however, support the fact that he ended up killing someone.

How do you know that?

WTF is wrong with you? Are you a closet pedo by any chance? I am glad that this happened in Texas, and not the state you live in for fear that you may be on the jury.

On a side note, I really -REALLY- hope that nothing like this ever happens to you should you decide to have a family. Because if it did, and you were to walk in on it, I have a feeling you would coddle the pedo, and try to tell him he didnt do anything wrong, and ignore the tiny girl that may not ever be able to have a family of their own. Its also good that the animal kingdon doesnt do this as well, I mean hell, the female lion would lick the poacher that killed her cubs right?

So basically you would be less upset about this if the guy killed the girl instead? so she would no longer exist and that's better than what currently happened have i got that right?

You texans sure are a funny bunch

I don't live in Texas, but thanks for the generalization. Once again, someone on the internet cannot read. Where, did I say anything about feeling better if the guy killed the little girl? Maybe you need to attend secondary education again, and attempt to understand English, and how to read context. I stated that according to Anaron, IF he had a family, and was to walk in on the same exact thing happening to his child that he would attempt to coddle the pedo, and tell him everything is OK. I said nowhere that I wished for the child to be dead nor die. Learn to read.

P.S.

I await your reply filled with sarcasm on how I may have spelled something or misused the word context.

I can read perfectly fine thanks, the texan comment was a jab at the poster after you i was just too lazy to quote them in.

Nice attempt at trying to attack my education I wouldn't be attacking anyones education if i was you after twisting anaron's post to suit yourself

Where, did I say anything about feeling better if the guy killed the little girl?

If you quote someone saying "To me, being a murderer is worse than being a child molestor." and respond with "WTF is wrong with you?"

Then you are disagreeing with their statement and implying a reversed role of "A child molestor is worse than being a murderer" he didn't state "A murderer is better if they are only killing child molestors" or anything of the sort stop reading into something that isn't there.

Nowhere did anaron state that being a murderer is bad and being a child molestor is good you added that in your self which is an easy mistake to make I wouldn't insult your education/intelligence for it but don't even think about accusing others of misreading/lacking education when you're the one who made such a significant mistake when responding to anaron

The context of this discussion is anaron's quote of "A is worse than B" you disagree with his sentiment yet disagree when I point out the decision you have made he didn't say "A is bad B is good" which judging by your response is what you've mistakenly read, don't go off on a nonsensical rant and then attempting to criticize other peoples educations when yours has failed you already in this discussion

I don't care about your spelling or misappropriate use of certain words what bothers me is this emotionally charged assault on someone because of some article and them having a differing opinion to you

You think because he feels it's wrong to kill people and this particular subject is touchy that's it ok to attack him which isn't right and he's probably right if sexes were involved spinning this around you would all most likely have a very different attitude to it (of course i can't speak for everyone here so yes this is a rough generalization based on observations i've experienced in this world)

I hope i haven't missed anything from anaron's posts that has set you off and i'm wrongly defending in that case i apologize in advance but from what i've seen so far that doesn't appear to be the case he's just sickened at the communities feedback and even siding with the actual father who did not intend to kill the person and questions the mentality of the people here?

So my education sucks in regards to me being able to twist something around to suit me. Maybe I need to apply for a journalism position with a major newspaper or tv network and use you as a reference. I would be top paid within the week.

Sounds good let me know how that goes for you :)

Seriously though I just find it annoying when someone says "A is worse than B" and somehow they get attacked as if they said "A is bad whilst B is good" it doesn't matter what the topic is about I haven't decided how i feel or what is right with this article. Just a pet peeve if you will :)

Totally would of done the same, in fact its probably just aswell he didnt have access to any kind of weapon or improvised weapon at the time. Even still I have to say if I caught some ****** doing that to my kid, the punches would be utterly and brutally vicious, i.e bleeding knuckles.

+10000 to that jury for refusing to do what that idiot judge demanded of them. That was an absolutely ridiculous request that would probably get at least a judicial review, if not disbarment here in the US. Looking at the article on Wikipedia, it seems as if Australian self defense law is pretty similar to that of the US.

Judge wasn't being a ****, just like the Google issue, the Jury is only meant to rule on certain things, the judge decides whether the self defence case will stand or not.

There's a bit more to it than that, it was just a ruling directive.

My point is that in the US, a judge wold not be allowed to demand that a jury ignore a self-defense plea in a murder trial.

It's crazy this thread got this big.

Look, if a grown man is going to sexually assault a young girl (or anyone for that matter) he should pay the price. It just so happens that in this case, the price was his life. Too bad so sad. **** that guy. This world is better off without people like him.

Here's an apt question for you; does a rubber stamp make people killing each other somehow better than this guy?

This thread is a great example of why "mob justice" doesn't work. Then again I wasn't too surprised about the verdict in Texas, that place has produced some of the "finest human specimens" of all time, like George.

    • WhatsApp is getting usernames, and you can reserve your preferred one now

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      WhatsApp is getting usernames, and you can reserve your preferred one now by Fiza Ali Sharing your phone number isn't always something you want to do, especially with people you've just met. Whether it's someone from a class, a local community group, or a sports team chat, handing over your number can feel like giving away more personal information than necessary. That's exactly the problem WhatsApp is trying to solve with its upcoming usernames feature. The company has announced that users can now reserve a unique WhatsApp username ahead of the feature's wider rollout later this year. Once usernames become available, they'll let people connect without revealing their phone numbers. It's a change that makes a lot of sense for group chats. Right now, everyone in the group can see your phone number. With usernames enabled, that won't necessarily be the case when someone contacts you for the first time. WhatsApp says it's opening username reservations early because more than three billion people use the app, meaning plenty of people are likely to want the same usernames. Reserving one now gives users a better chance of securing the name they actually want before the feature launches more broadly. If your preferred username is already taken, WhatsApp will also offer a built-in username generator to suggest available alternatives. The feature isn't only aimed at individual users. Creators, businesses, and organisations will be able to claim the same username they already use on Instagram or Facebook, making it easier to keep a consistent identity across Meta's apps. Furthermore, privacy is a big part of how WhatsApp is introducing usernames. There won't be a public directory where people can browse or search for usernames. Instead, people will need to know your exact username before they can start a conversation with you. Additionally, users can also choose to enable a username key, which adds another layer of control by requiring people to enter that key before sending a message. Once the feature rolls out, people who choose to use a username will no longer have their phone number shown when messaging a person or business for the first time. If you want to reserve a username, make sure you're running the latest version of WhatsApp, then head to Settings > Account > Username. The tech giant says usernames will roll out gradually over the coming months, and users will receive an in-app notification when the feature becomes available in their country.
    • How do you future-proof a home or small office network?

      By sphbecker · Posted

      When I think about a network, there are really two aspects, the hardware and the wiring. So here is what I would do for both. Wiring: Use Cat6A for the patch panel, outlets, and all structured cables (cables installed in walls). Run plenty of Wireless Access Point (WAP) cables, as a general rule, assume a signal can only pass through 2-3 walls and can't pass through a floor (that is conservative, but trust me on this if you want strong WiFi)  Cat6 patch cables are fine for now if you don't plan to run 10gig, those are easy to replace later if needed. Run OS2 single-mode fiber to anywhere you think you may have a server or sub-switch. (yes, single-mode for everything on a small network, don't mess with multimode unless you have entire racks of servers and that minor module cost and power savings will matter). If you really want to future proof, also run fiber to any high density WAP locations, it is likely that WiFi 8 WAPs will push the limits of 10g. Run 6-12 pairs of single-mode fiber between your MDF and the building's MDF, even if you only need 1 or 2 pairs now, those extra pairs will pay off down the road. Hardware: (its easy to say "get all the features incase you need them", so instead of futureproofing, I am going to take approach of suggesting areas worth investing in, and areas you can save money). Don't overspend thinking you need every feature on every port. You don't need 10g on every port, you don't need PoE on every port. Don't overspend on redundancy either, unless you are ready to buy two of everything, don't waste money buying two of some things and not others. Dual power supplies are worthwhile, but probably not HA or multi-path redundancy.  Get 1 "distribution layer" switch that your router/firewall will connect to as well as all your access layer switches below. This should be a 10g switch with a combination of copper and SPF ports and should be a fully managed switch. Given that you said it is a small network, I suggest also using that distribution layer switch for servers and WAPs, meaning it will need PoE. Speaking of wireless, get good professional tri-band WAPs, and either turn on the band stirring options, or limit 2.4 to an IoT only SSID. This will provide a solid WiFi capable nearly everything but the highest of bandwidth clients...you could even consider skipping wiring workstations depending on usage. Access layer switch for workstations and printers can be cheaper switches, 2.5g is a good sweet spot between price and future proofing, but even 1g is fine for most individual clients (the kind that could probably be fine on WiFi). You can consider saving a little on access layer switches by only getting 1 PoE switch for whatever needs it (remember your WAPs are connecting to the distribution switch, not here), and non-PoE for your workstations, because desk phones are falling out of favor. You can also save money here by not buying managed switches if you don't need them--but really do some soul searching there, if you go this route, then anything that isn't on your workstation VLAN would either need to be connected to the distribution switch, or its own switch. Also, don't feel like you need a fancy fabric stacking switches for your access layer, that is the point of the higher-end distribution layer, to remove the need for things like that at this level. Home Hardware: I'm realizing the above assumed an office setting, if this if for your house and home lab then the above still applies, but you'll probably want everything managed and PoE, just because, but you probably also don't need multiple access layer switches. if your total port count is below 24, just skip separating distribution layer and access layer and just get one nice switch with the features you want. For home use, don't worry about home running every device to the main switch, there is nothing wrong with running sub-switches for your media areas and office, those essentially become your access layer, just look for sub-switches with a 10g uplink so sharing bandwidth isn't an issue.
    • Google Meet brings Gemini note-taking to AI Pro and Ultra subscribers

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Google Meet brings Gemini note-taking to AI Pro and Ultra subscribers by Karthik Mudaliar Google's Gemini-powered "Take notes for me" feature inside Google Meet is now available to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers. The features work on Google Meet for web as well as on mobile, and Google says that subscribers can use it for meetings they host in many supported languages. As the name suggests, "Take notes for me" allows Gemini to listen to a meeting, generate a summary, identify action items, and save the notes as a Google Doc in the user’s Drive. After the meeting, the organizer receives an email recap with the summary and action items, while the notes can also be attached to the related Calendar event depending on the meeting setup and sharing settings. The feature isn't automatically turned on for everyone, though. Google says that all meeting participants are notified when note-taking is turned on, and users can start it from the pencil icon in Meet or enable it for future calls through Meet’s meeting records settings. For work or school accounts, administrators can also control whether the feature is available and may require explicit participant consent for note-taking, recording, or transcription features. The feature first launched back in 2024, when it was available just for selected Workspace users. Over the years, Google added refinements and more options, including the ability to enable it when scheduling meetings via Google Calendar. Google's support docs say that the feature currently supports English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish, but only one language at a time. Meetings with multiple spoken languages are not currently supported, and Google recommends using the tool for meetings between 15 minutes and eight hours. The new feature makes Google Meet closer to its rivals that have AI tools already built in. Microsoft Teams has recently started offering Copilot and intelligent recap features that summarize meetings, surface highlights, and help with follow-ups, while Zoom’s AI Companion can also generate meeting summaries from desktop and mobile meetings.

    • Microsoft finally launches WSL Containers in public preview

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Microsoft finally launches WSL Containers in public preview by David Uzondu Microsoft has announced that WSL containers, a feature that allows developers to run Linux containers natively inside Windows without the need for Docker Desktop, is now available in public preview several weeks after Microsoft previewed it at Build 2026. To use the new container feature, you first have to install the latest pre-release version of the Windows Subsystem for Linux by running a quick update command in your terminal: wsl --update --pre-release After installing, you'd get access to the new Linux container CLI (wslc.exe) and the programmable API. Microsoft said that the CLI has a "familiar format" that matches the toolsets developers already use every day. If you know standard Docker commands, your muscle memory will translate directly to wslc.exe, which even features a built-in alias called container.exe. You can quickly run a full Ubuntu KDE desktop container by exposing ports, or pass your graphics card straight into a machine learning environment to run PyTorch workloads. Passing the --gpus all flag inside the run command instantly links your hardware. Image via Microsoft As for the API, developers can now embed Linux container operations directly inside native Windows applications without exposing the command line to users. The team integrated the API directly into MSBuild and CMake, so developers can define container steps directly in project files. Apart from bringing the CLI and API into public preview, Microsoft also said that it's working on a new default file system called virtiofs to speed up file transfer rates between Windows and Linux. Microsoft also introduced an experimental networking mode named consomme, which resolves compatibility issues with corporate VPNs by routing Linux network traffic straight through Windows. One thing to note about WSL containers is that they don't run in your standard WSL distributions; instead, every application and CLI session spawns its own lightweight Hyper-V utility VM in the background. This basically reduces the chances of one app snooping on the container of another app.
