LCD Display/Image Capture Device
Jon writes "Remember jokes about clueless newbies trying to fax documents by holding them up to the monitor? Perhaps they were just ahead of their time. Toshiba has developed a combined LCD/optical sensor, according to EETimes. It isn't monitor sized yet, but in a few years, perhaps?"
Of course not, dim-witted liberals are fucktards and can never realize that they are THAT FUCKING STUPID.
Remember jokes about clueless newbies trying to fax documents by holding them up to the monitor?
I've just tried this... and IT WORKS !!
Anybody notice that all of a sudden, everyone's sig lines have vanished off all posts in Slashdot's databases??? They're all gone!!!!
/. user and saw my cutesy sig line there when I views my own post. Now there all gone, ALL GONE!!!!! It's a conspiracy, I tell ya.
Is this some disk space saving thing that they just had to do, or is something just borked? Sig lines were there and working fine just earlier this morning, I know because I posted a message as my regular
What the fuck? Did you read the fucking story? You're a goddamned idiot. It appears you have no idea what this story is talking about. Screen grabs have nothing to do with this. The capture device is pointing outwards. Holy shit, you're dumb.
In response to your bullshit: civilians die in war. But this kid's suffering is tiny in comparison to the suffering that Hussein perpetrated on his own people for decades.
So the only way to fight evil is more evil? Glad I don't live anywhere near your world.
Answer me that and I'll be on board for whatever you want to do, dickless.
Indeed.
Death by collateral damage is far, far, better a fate, than death by status quo.
Too bad we can't charge and prosecute all the peaceniks for "contributory rape".
You could've hired me.
> So the only way to fight evil is more evil? Glad I don't live anywhere near your world.
LOL! Sorry to tell you but... you already do. It's fight-fire-with-fire. Saddam kills tens of thousands of his own... well fuck him, we'll stop that. We'll kill tens of thousands doing so, but then it's over
Only a putridly small mind couldn't look ahead far enough ahead. YOU TEH LOSE.
Military hardware and men who signed up for it.
120,000 civilians who couldn't even vote in their leadership die.
Ya, the U.S. is so fucking moral.
Simple. Go to war and destroy their military, not one live Japanese set foot on U.S. soil. They weren't invading US!
Only a putridly small mind couldn't look ahead far enough ahead.
That's not a nice way to talk about Reagan, Bush Sr., Rumsfeld and Cheney. (I'd include Bush Jr., but in his case it's true)
Here is the full story. Why couldn't any of them look far enough ahead? Or does your narrow mind only apply that to people you don't agree with? When will the blackshirts hit the streets to rid us of the "Liberal Menace"?
Sorry again! You wish the US to just not realise it fucked up, and therefore keep on supporting hussein? does consistency mean that much to you?
You're living in an imaginary theoretical world. poor you
Saddam killed hundreds of thousands, possibly millions (600,000 in Iran-Iraq war, 100,000 plus in Basra, 100,000 plus in Kurdish cities, using chemical weapons).
Sanctions were killing and/or putting at risk millions, according to UNICEF.
War is evil, but it's the least evil option
does consistency mean that much to you?
Big words coming now.
Hypocrisy: Noun
1. Insincerity by virtue of pretending to have qualities or beliefs that you do not really have.
So why pretend that now was the time? What was wrong with 1991? What was wrong with 1985? Why now?
Try this on for size: The Reason Why.
Along with these three, I propose a new requirement for any man who would be President of this nation:
1. You are 35 years old
2. You are a Native-born citizen
3. You have been a resident of the United States for at least 14 years.
4. You serve at least one tour of duty in your countries armed forces in combat, not flying a desk at home, in combat.
You know, that response would actually be interesting towards terrorism. Can you imagine after 9/11, if the official response was "Well, those buildings were getting kinda old. Now we can replace them with bigger and better!"
Seriously. Terrorists would be dumbfounded; they'd have no point in continuing their activities. Letting terrorism provoke a violent response only affirms its effectiveness.
Of course, in reality, this course of action could not possibly be taken; violent response is 'necessary', and they know and expect that. Unfortunately, the main reason it is necessary is to avoid the appearance of being 'dickless'. Which, obviously, is never the best reason for action, and perhaps less obviously, is very ironic.
That is not to say that war is never necessary. Just that it is more 'necessary' than necessary (i.e. war, although it should be, is not currently a last resort).
I refer to them as speed bumps.
Who's the bigger idiot, the idiot who posts a idiotic comment or the idiot who wastes server space on the idiot. Or the idiot who wastes even more time and server space pointing out the general stupidity of both idiots?
