When they catch the person/people responsible for this, and they will, there shouldnt be a trial. They should be promptly executed. They gave no thought to killing/injuring others, and probably enjoyed it, so why should their rights be protected.

Anyway, glad none of my family in the Boston area were around there. Sorry for all the people who were tho.

Their rights should be protected because that's the difference between animals like the person that did this and a functional society.

His actions are so repulsive for just this reason, we shouldn't join him in this.

If people do bad things to people because people did bad things to people then Society is getting pretty well nowhere. Besides, for all you know, we'd be doing them a huge favor.

Just look at who posted that video on Youtube: NWOTruthChannel....

nuff said.

I don't want to get into a whole separate debate, however to be 100% fair that image (original + zoom in) didn't originate from the "NWOTruthChannel" channel. I have seen it scattered around the web since around 30 minutes after I heard it happened.

You know there are plenty of armchair professionals around.

But yes, let's don't get into a whole separate debate.

Don't get me wrong, I'm no conspiracy theorist, he just looks very suspicious, the way his back his arched made him look very calm and not running. This was just after the first explosion too.

If you notice, he has no direct LOS to the blasts, so he could not have seen them go off. Conspiracy theory. Nice try though :)

I have a friend from Boston who's also a member of Neowin. I really hope he's okay!

Prayers to the victims and their families, by the way.

Update: he's fine. I contacted him outside of Neowin (via texting on his cell). :)

He's a sweet guy, heh.

I think the picture of the man with most of his leg blown away really captures the horror of the attack. Too often those who are injured get overlooked, with everybody focusing on the number of fatalities. It's hard to imagine what going through that must be like but it certainly wouldn't be easy. :no:

I hadn't noticed the veins until you mentioned it, though I didn't spend a huge amount of time looking at the picture (it's pretty harrowing).

It was pretty crowdy over there

I thought this was pretty odd

not really that odd, everyone cheering is very loud if you've been to a marathon its hard to hear anything... if you are at ground level that is all you hear, go above people it starts to dull out how the sound travels plays a big role in that... the TV cameras where either in the road or above the level of most people, so they got hit by the sound wave pretty well... you are a person at ground level, it gets drowned out pretty easily

Amen. The days after I lost my right leg were indescribable. Wouldn't wish if on anyone.

What angers me is I've already got several friends on Facebook asking what country was responsible for this. As if America is somehow dissolved of all evil persons. We're so good at pointing the finger, never looking in the mirror. Some of the people making these comments have wished will-ill on our President in the past. Just absolutely baffles me...

I'm not one to cling to the news and follow minute-by-minute coverage so I'll just say that I'm really saddened by what happened. Sad for Boston. Sad for the folks participating/cheering at the marathon. Truly heinous act.

That article is still quoting 12 dead, a third explosion, and other nonsense we now know not to be true...

    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it

      By WaltC · Posted

      AI will never be the jobs panacea some companies fantasize about today. Oracle is likely using it as an excuse, which we will see a lot of companies doing, I'm certain. They love their "plausible" excuses for their downturns. A couple of weeks ago my wife asked me to call Krogers about some discrepancy in a online grocery order, and it will be the last time either of us does that. I'll just do emails with humans from now on... The AI experience was horrible--the obviously recorded voice started asking a bunch of questions about our orders six months prior(!) and saying, "Is this in reference to your order on January 6, for $****?" You say "No!" and immediately the next question is "Is this in reference to your order on January 29th, for $****?" again, I answered "No!"--and it was incredible--on and on it went like that for fully 20 minutes until we finally got to the present, and only then was I put through to a human with authentic intelligence... I wondered why on Earth the idiot AI didn't start with the most recent orders and work back from there, as it was something anyone with a functioning brain would have done. And why didn't the AI have enough sense to ask me what the problem was in the first place? It didn't take too much deduction to understand that the goal of this "AI" was to cause the person on the phone to hang up in disgust, with no resolution of the problem. That begs another question: why pay for a tool-free problem line if the goal is to avoid solving your customer's problems?... Fortunately, Krogers does have real humans capable of reading an email and understanding it, and if she sees another situation in the future that's route she or I will take. The online grocery delivery service from Krogers has been great, over all, but their AI truly sucks.

      AI is the justification that company administrators use to lay people off; it is not the end all, be all touted in the media (many of whom can't tell a microchip from a potato chip). Greed is main driving factor behind its adoption; the other is remaining relevant in the face of competition from other entities.

    • Firefox 152.0.2 is out with fixes for performance, translation, and cloud storage services

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Firefox 152.0.2 is out with fixes for performance, translation, and cloud storage services by Taras Buria A new bug-fixing update is now rolling out to Firefox users in the Release Channel. Less than a week ago, Mozilla fixed crashes on Intel Raptor Lake processors with version 152.0.1. Now, Mozilla has prepared yet another set of fixes that address problems with localization, playback issues of certain MP4 files, and performance issues on website that perform various encryption operations at once. Here is the full changelog: Firefox 152.0.2 is now available for download from Mozilla's FTP. Existing installations will get the update over the next several hours. The latest version will also be available soon on the official website, the Microsoft Store, and Neowin's Software page. You can find Firefox 152.0.2 release notes in the official documentation. In case you missed it, Mozilla released Firefox 152 earlier this month. The latest feature update brought reworked settings with a more streamlined user interface, JPEG XL support, new features for Private mode, a new way to mute a tab (just type "mute" in the address bar), and many more. You can find the complete changelog here. In other Firefox news, Mozilla recently published its roadmap, where the company detailed the upcoming Nova redesign and other features it plans to implement. Mozilla wants to make the new user interface easier to navigate and more modern, with a heavy focus on its privacy tools, such as its built-in VPN. If you are curious, you can already enable the new UI as described here.
