(SCO lawyers) " are not really working for justice, but for their piece of the litigation reward pie."
So few lawyers these days give a damn about justice. it's a profession obsessed with the big payout, not driven by anything but a passion for money. (note: I am speaking in broad terms, there are still a few lawyers out there fighting the good fight, very few lawyers...)
I had a pair of these come with my old GeForce 2 (gts deluxe (?) - can't remember all the bloody codenames and digits) and played Theif with them... but all it really succeeded in doing was giving me a headache. perhaps the tech has gotten better, but they just seem to be rehashing tech from 6 years ago
the vast majority of religions are completely open source... you can inspect the source of the bible and many people have forked it over time so we've ended up with KJV, GoodNews bible and mutliple spin off religions such as jehovas witnesses, catholicism, protestantarianism, fundamentalism etc. that's not to discount the other open source religions such as buddhism, doaism etc... by definition a religion is open source... by definition a cult is closed source.
"you fucks being a bunch of cheap faggots"
I'm not a cheap faggot! I don't trawl the local nightclubs for a free quickie... instead I pay for an escort service... wait, what were we discussing again?
For those planning to protest this can I suggest doing it naked... a bunch of big throbbing cocks in front of parliament house is bound to get the message accross that you can't filter what people see.

and today that number is 1 billion:)
I would imagine that most pirated copies of windows wouldn't use auto update, you don't want your pirated OS contacting the developer whenever it feels like.
that's a great idea, then all the public wifi spots will get shut down for being accesories to copyright infringement and there'll be no more public wifi for anyone. Screw all those people who think they are so cool sitting in cafes using their shiny mac book pros, eh!
iinet being sued the week after they agreed to start filtering content on the internet.
I know that they were doing this to prove that filtering won't work, and hopefully this will help prove their case to the Aust govt... but I doubt it... the Aust govt will probably decide that this is exactly why the filters need to be stricter...
the filter trial iinet is going into has NOTHING to do with MAFIAA... the filter trial is to block kiddie porn (although it is not really about that either, but about control over the masses). Eventually I assume that the Aus govt will extend that to include copyrighted material and any anti-government propoga
"he can do whatever the hell he wants (except DUI as it's illegal)"...
doing drugs is illegal too... but you aren't against that?
perhaps what you mean is that he shouldn't DUI or operate heavy machinery under the influence becuase that would endanger others?
saying "don't do this because it's illegal" but then saying it's okay to do other illegal activities will just confuse your child... tell him instead the rules of your house and how they cross-section with the law (using a venn diagram i suppose), and discuss how those morally and ethically are different.
Let me break this down into deductive reasoning
Program designed to catch terrorists
Program does NOT catch terrorists
Logical conclusion: Program does not do what it was designed to do. therefore it is a failure.
Now, if the program was designed to deter terrorists you might have a leg to stand on, but there would be no metric that could be used to determine failure or success, because for all we know the terrorists are no longer interested in taking down Planes... in fact... terrorists are fairly intelligent and creative and don't do the same stunt twice... the TSA either does not understand this or just wants a power-trip and any excuse will do.
Shoot first ask questions later...and if they were trying to get out of a terrible storm , or if they have a mental dissability / don't know where they are or if they are wounded and looking for help... you'd come home see them, grab your gun and kill them in cold blood? Moron.

in australia our money is made of plastic, so I'd go the toilet option... chances are it won't flush too easily.
they aren't forcing a religion on their workers. they are forcing a cult on them.

unfortunately this is a rarity to the point that this sentence is considered by most to be an oxymoron.

yes... it is a PC.
the different OS doesn't stop it from being a PERSONAL COMPUTER.

geez, I hope you copyrighted whatever they quoted so you can send a DMCA take down notice, or better yet, sue them.
