Connecticut To Store Biometric Information
AugstWest writes: "I just got word that when I renew my driver's license, I will have to submit to allowing the CT DMV to store biometric information, as well as smile for facial recognition software from Viisage to be able to continue driving. I am so appalled, I don't even know where to begin. With all of the national law enforcement agencies opening up their databases to each other, is this the first step in taking a surveillance society to a tracking society?"
First post!
too late again :(
In treating this subject Plekhanov contrived completely to ignore the most urgent, burning, and politically most essential issue in the struggle against anarchism, viz., the relation of the revolution to the state, and the question of the state in general! Two sections of his pamphlet stand out: one of them is historical and literary, and contains valuable material on the history of the ideas of Stirner, Proudhon and others; the other is philistine, and contains a clumsy dissertation on the theme that an anarchist cannot be distinguished from a bandit.
A most amusing combination of subjects and most characteristic of Plekhanov's whole activity on the eve of the revolution and during the revolutionary period in Russia. Indeed, in the years 1905 to 1917, Plekhanov revealed himself as a semi-doctrinaire and semi-philistine who, in politics, trailed in the wake of the bourgeoisie.
We have seen how, in their controversy with the anarchists, Marx and Engels with the utmost thoroughness explained their views on the relation of revolution to the state. In 1891, in his foreword to Marx's Critique of the Gotha Program, Engels wrote that "we"--that is, Engels and Marx--"were at that time, hardly two years after the Hague Congress of the (First) International, engaged in the most violent struggle against Bakunin and his anarchists."
The anarchists had tried to claim the Paris Commune as their "own," so to say, as a corroboration of their doctrine; and they utterly failed to understand its lessons and Marx's analysis of these lessons. Anarchism has failed to give anything even approximating a true solution of the concrete political problems, viz., must the old state machine be smashed? And what should be put in its place?
But to speak of "Anarchism and Socialism" while completely evading the question of the state, and failing to take note of the whole development of Marxism before and after the Commune, meant inevitably slipping into opportunism. For what opportunism needs most of all is that the two questions just mentioned should not be raised at all. That in itself is a victory for opportunism.

No, I don't trust in god. He'll have to pay up front, like everybody else.
Malda wrote a special script on the relation of Lunix to Microsoft, entitled Slashdot and published in Perl in 199-.
In treating this subject Malda contrived completely to ignore the most urgent, burning, and politically most essential issue in the struggle against Microsoft, viz., the relation of the revolution to the OS, and the question of the OS in general! Two sections of his blog stand out: one of them is historical and literary, and contains valuable material on the history of the ideas of Trollaxor, egg troll and others; the other is philistine, and contains a clumsy dissertation on the theme that Bill Gates cannot be distinguished from a bandit.
A most amusing combination of subjects and most characteristic of Maldas's whole activity on the eve of the VA Lunix IPO and during the dotcom stock bubble period in America. Indeed, in the years 1999 to 2001, Malda revealed himself as a semi-doctrinaire and semi-philistine who, in politics, trailed in the wake of the bourgeoisie.
We have seen how, in their controversy with the trolls, Malda and Hemos with the utmost thoroughness explained their views on the relation of the Lunix kernel to the OS. In 2002, in his foreword to Malda's Defense of the Subscription Program, Hemos wrote that "we"--that is, Malda and Hemos--"were at that time, hardly one year after the dotocm stock (price) collapse, engaged in the most violent struggle against ringbarer and all other discordians."
The trolls had tried to claim Slashdot as their "own," so to say, as a corroboration of their doctrine; and they utterly failed to understand its lessons and Jamie's analysis of these lessons. Trolling has failed to give anything even approximating a true solution of the concrete gayness problems, viz., must the old trolling machine be smashed? And what should be put in its place?
But to speak of "trolling" while completely evading the question of the fact that most Slashdot editors are censoring fascists, and failing to take note of the whole development of Slashdot before and after the Subscription programme, meant inevitably slipping into opportunism. For what Michael Sims needs most of all is that the two questions just mentioned should not be raised at all. That in itself is a victory for Jon Katz.
smackhead. you deserve to be on one of the re education trains.
Shut the hell up. We saved your ass in the war, buddy, never forget it.
Snotty little Microsoft biatch.
Submit a patch or stop whining.
1) Never-never Land
2) The Moon
3) Communist China
is to your kids. Tell them how and why Daddy was the forefather to having their rights trampled. Explain to your parents why they have to get on the train and go to a 're-education' camp. That would be a real soul-searching article. Yesiree.
I claimed nothing AC, I said *thank goodness I don't live in the US*. Hope that helps.
LOL, it's ironic that an AC should say that.
is it fair to point out the jungle asswhupping's you've had since?
yeah, but he's right. You are obsessed with the US. I bet you also make fun of "American Pop Culture" while wathcing Britney Spears on MTV too.
you sound like eurotrash. (or possibly a whiny Canuck).
sure it's fair, but and it's funny to do it sometimes too. But if we're going to be realistic, it is true that Europe wouldn't have been able to stop Hitler without the help of the US. (Economic & hardware help before officially entering the war, and with troops, kicking ass and taking names after).
and the US military definately learned some lessons in Vietnam, but it's applied those lessons well. Fact is that the US is a sleepy giant that likes to be left alone. Wake it up and you will regret it. (Why can't Arabs figure this out)???

Why do you visit an obviously US-centric site with only microsoft skills and a sorry excuse for a resume (if you even want to call it that)? Some people just want to cause problems.
