This does not exist in this system, there is no possibility of ever being deemed innocent in this system
The entire DMCA framework, while having good intentions, is "broken beyond repair"
No, there were never any good intentions in this legislation, it is being used exactly the way it was intended. It was sold to the public as something completely different, but should that surprise anyone anymore?
Has it occured to anyone that the problem is not with the people or the cars, but with the laws?
The majority of our traffic laws and their limits are designed to be broken on a regular basis by everyone.
They are designed to be revenue generators, not to keep the roads safe.
Agreed, these useless knuckledraggers need to be punished for shit like this or it will never end. Better yet, how about we start with disbanding all city police departments. After all, that is where the vast majority of our crime comes from. After they no longer have immunity they will end up in prison where they belong within a few years at the most. If we start seeing the same thing from county police they should be disbanded on a case per case basis. It is no secret that the extreme corruption is found primarily in city police departments and to a lesser extent in the county police. There is a reason for this, the state police actually have standards for hiring, with the possible exception of Virginia.
True, this would only make their deliveries take less time since now they can get sleep while they travel. They will have to be woken up in each state though, since they have to get gas in every state they drive through or pay taxes on it twice.
The man was a legend, and was usually right. This was probably the truest thing he ever said too.
The first amendment was not written to protect popular speech, it was written to protect the speech that was unpopular, hated, derided, and frowned upon. All attempts to limit free speech are for the purpose of gaining or retaining power, there are no exceptions.
Wow, finally someone else that noticed that the bill of rights did not use the words "legal citizen" at any point. It fucking said "people," which means that those rights apply to all people.
It doesn't mean that since someone is a citizen of another country you can ignore their damn rights.
Dude, they are all owned by the same family. The only reason there are different "points of view" on the different stations is so they can use different messages to control different groups.
I will agree with you on KDE. It is by far my favorite interface.
What I like the lest about Gnome 3 is how they made it extremely hard to access many of the basic settings. For example, the last time I gave it a chance I was trying to play music on my laptop while I went to sleep(It's hard for me to sleep without music in the background). In order to keep the screen from glowing in my face I shut the lid and the music immediately stopped. I thought, oh I'll just tell it to not go into sleep mode when I shut the lid... There was no way to alter this setting inside the GUI at all. I searched with google for over an hour to find a way to change it, but nothing worked, not even editing files directly. I finally said fuck it and installed KDE. 10 minutes later(slow ass connection) I was happily listening to music while I drifted off to sleep without the glow of the monitor to disturb me.
This is not the only reason that I hate it, but it was the last straw for me. If you can't have basic options in an easy to access manner I will not use your interface.
No, they still have flash player in the repositories and you can opt to install it during the OS install. Also they provide some closed source drivers.
RMS is one of my heroes, but he is too extreme on a few things.
I've watched that one before. It was pretty good. I liked the way they simplified many of the ideas so that the average person could understand what they were saying.
I do think it is an interesting idea, I don't give it much credence though. I still like learning about those kinds of ideas, it is always important to be able to look at things from multiple perspectives and try your best to look at them without your own bias. The looking without your own bias is the hardest part by far though. Those of us who try will always struggle with it, and those who don't try will always exclaim that they have no bias.
I expect others to poke, as you put it. If nobody is willing to ask questions and look for answers then we will never know what is true and what is a steaming pile of bullshit. That is why I always ask questions and mention other alternatives. In this case I think the guys working on the Electric Universe theory may be heading in the right direction. Their ideas are not bulletproof, but like true scientists, when the evidence doesn't support their predictions they explore different possibilities.

I haven't heard about this weirdness around the moon yet, got a link?
It could also be those massive magnetic fields that we know exist but refuse to acknowledge any possible source for.
I'll bring the popcorn.
What? A helpful AC? Shit, everyone to their bomb shelters, the end is here!
I like your line of thought here.

No way in hell I would bet against that.

Sadly this has proven true in the last several years.
Because I demand that my computer do what I tell it to. Also the reason I only use Windows for games.
That is the only way it has ever worked in history, and to keep it that way you have to break out the metaphorical pitchforks often.

Possibly because he is a psychopath who is trying to be the president by stirring up as much hatred and bigotry as possible to get votes?

It checks out. She could dazzle me with her looks or with science! Preferably both.

Gnome 3 is the worst user interface I have ever seen. In fact it is the only one worse than Metro. If I was forced to use it at my job I would quit.
Likely because people who use Linux know how to turn it off. Hard to make money off of it if nobody leaves it on.
