Yep, still funny. Maybe not so much for me, I even might actually be rather pissed. But it's still funny for $everyone-1.

See, I just don't buy the "what if it happened to you" argument. When it "happens to you", you get all emotional about the newly acquired status of victimhood and can demand outrageous compensation and/or punishment. Here's something from an actual conversation on Fark, paraphrased: "What if it was your family member who was a victim of medical malpractice, would you still be for the compensation cap?" No, of course not. I'd want to sue everyone involved for as much money as possible (perhaps... a THOUSAND DOLLARS! *pinky to the mouth*) because I'm a selfish lazy bastard who'd prefer not to work**.

Hopefully with this out of the way I can move on to the second part. Am I correct in understanding that your problem with this is that the photos were taken and published without anyone's consent and knowledge? How is one then supposed to take pictures outside, ask anyone who could end up in the frame for permission to take the photo, and then contact them before publishing anywhere, as suggested in the original post? Next time I go on a trip somewhere, would you come with me to ask the people for permission in photos such as this? I took it myself so obviously I'm a huge asshole for putting it online, even more so considering that the original 2560x1920 image contained much more detail and thus potentially incriminating information. Are those two dudes 1/4 from the left holding hands? Perhaps the local anti-ghey community will be interested.

We were already subjected to random search at every movie these days. Check out this flyer that now hangs ever 2 feet and above every ticket counter at every theater I've been to lately:

This will do nothing more then make the big theater chains more afraid and implement more ridiculous policies that in the end only make non-pirates stop going !

First, Firethorn, I take it you've never been in combat nor experienced any "live fire" situations?

Nope, have you? I consider myself lucky to have avoided that so far. Still, it's been a distinct possibility several times.

Nor do you appear to be experienced with assault rifles and other weaponry.

hehehehe...

I'm not a high-speed low drag individual, but I'm not unexperienced.

With the latest Sig automatic rifle I could take out most of a crowded football stadium in under five minutes - a slight exaggeration, but only slight!
Are you talking about this rifle?

Still, Slight exaggeration? Surely not! It's a gross exaggeration! Unless you're talking about a non-college, non-professional stadium, occupancy for my example football stadium is 81,067. A standard 5.56 magazine is 30 rounds. I own a AR-15, and have a number of 30 round magazines. The rifle, combined with 10 magazines(300 rounds total) is fairly heavy. I would be able to carry substantially more, true, but I'd be encumbered carrying that much and not moving very quickly. After all, a loaded magazine weighs .45 kg. A hundred loaded magazines would be 100 pounds to carry. That gives me 3000 rounds. I consider 300 rounds to be a decent range trip. 3k rounds would also cost around a thouand dollars, buying cheap.

Even carrying a hundred pounds of ammo, and killing somebody with each shot, you'd only get 3.7% of the stadium goers. More realistically, they'd trample more of each other trying to flee than what you'd kill.

Besides, talking about automatic rifles is totally besides the point when we're talking about a shooter using semi-automatic handguns with 15 round magazines. One of them a .22!

Your suggestion as to what occurred at Virginia Tech is both highly insulting, highly ignorant and most obscene. There were unbelievable examples of heroism and valor on behalf of the faculty and students there - something sadly lacking from those politicians in elective office today

What, the truth? From what I've read, NOT ONE PERSON IN THE BUILDING WENT AFTER THE SHOOTER. Yes, there were heroic acts I can only hope I would be capable of- but barricading a door, while smart, is not precisely heroic or valorous. Two professors held the classroom doors closed while Seung-Hui Cho shot him, one succeeded, one did not, both died. One went to investigate - and ended up shot. Being a hero, perhaps unfortuantly, requires one to be successful.

I DO NOT CONSIDER HIDING UNDER A DESK to be heroic, much less valorous. Read some decorations for medals of honor for heroic and valorous acts. Do you consider hiding under a desk or jumping out a window to be equivalent to, while wounded, grasping a lit flare and hauling it, while it's burning you, to the back of the aircraft to throw it out, like A1C John L. Levitow?

All I was saying was that if we'd trained the students there to consider offensive actions in such a situation, it probably would of resulted in fewer casualties. Even a fatally wounded individual would have probably been able to disable Cho long enough for others to finish the job.

Heros still exist today - I'm just questioning if they're being trained for the correct responses.

Where does our current elected officials come into this? This sort of thing isn't going to be initiated by these individuals. Nice ranting though.

Secondly, choosing the most clueless sci-fi writers - especially at this rather late da

Because, in some ways, we're now at war with CCP.

Personally, my goal is to defeat BoB or destroy CCP trying. If CCP has to cheat blatantly and repeatedly in order to defeat us, people are going to notice - and we'll end up with story after story on Slashdot, each one exposing CCP as The Company Running The Rigged MMORPG. And each time, people are going to unsubscribe, and people who were going to subscribe are going to change their minds.

Here's a screenshot of a thread where one of the developers involved with the scandal asked why their login numbers were going down. The responses are, to say the least, amusing. I'm told the thread was locked and deleted soon afterwards.

Hmm... is this an homage to Tron? Where are the lightcycles?

Just move the car into the building to see the real world:

Apple has 3% of desktops. Is this a sign of failure? At some point, it was...

The Zune has done very well so far...

If the leap from Zune 1 to 2 is as big as XBOX to XBOX360, Apple's in for a trouble.
