    I dunno, I'm comforted by knowing that no matter how bad our politics get yours are so much worse and I'm a Canadian so some Americans might consider me to be an enemy.

    Pretty much a nanny state.

    "Yes you are free, free without a doubt. If you do not have the price of a meal you are free to go without." -- George Sawchuck (It's okay if you've never heard of him)

    There's a difference between excessive meddling in a citizens life and providing for your citizens.

    and these just look like some cumulus lenticularis

    Thank you, that's the name I was trying to remember. I've seen photos of clouds that looked similar to these ones but they are a bit different.

  6. Re:Money on FBI Investigates Liberator of Court Records · · Score: 3, Insightful

    For the past decade your government has been opposed to liberty, the problem is that your entire country had your head SO far up you asses with thoughts like "We're the best country in the world." or "We have so many guns and the knowledge to use them that the government wouldn't dare take away our liberties." That you have completely missed that huge portions of your population live in 3rd world conditions and that your own government has taken your liberties from under your very nose.

    you felt the need to look up how to stop vomiting? On your iPhone? WHILE VOMITING!? Christ man heres a hint, your vomiting because your body wants to purge something, the best way to stop is to keep vomiting till it's all gone.

    Excuse me what!? I haven't seen a standard (flat head) wood screw in quite a while except when I take apart walls. there almost all Robinson(square) or Phillips(cross).

    It's going to be like the Taser all over again, harmless at 50' for 2-3 seconds not so harmless when the jackass police officer decides he's going to teach a punk kid a lesson and blasts him with it from 6 inches for 2 minutes.

  10. Re:What? on Google Project 10^100 Reaches Voting Phase · · Score: 1

    Completely ignoring the fact that it's through all the tracking that Google became such a great search engine. What the hell do you care that Google happens to know that your looking up recipes/18th century steam engines/donkey porn, it will never get traced back to you unless your a real idiot and don't secure your own computer.

    But the whole "we reject math and logic because the numbers feel to small" sounds like the results of retarded anti-schooling.

    Welcome to America, here's your churro.

    I admited to doing it for the "hallavit" a few months ago, I'll even do it again. I download Music, Movies and Games because I want to and I don't give a damn what anybody has to say.

    Also I have much better things to spend the $70 there charging for some games these days like hookers, drugs and alcohol. Also I do try to give smaller indie developers my money.

  13. Re:Premium content on Micropayments For News — Holy Grail Or Delusion? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Funny, I can's seem to find a tag in the HTML standard I notice the tags which ARE in the HTML standard seem to work just fine. But I digress, I'm assuming that like most Americans you are profoundly arrogant about your own country and have simply setup a misstep on my part with slashcode as a straw man to attack me with.

    It's the same as any other volunteer work, you have absolutely no obligation to do the work but if you don't then your not going to be invited back and your work will be refused.

  21. Re:hacking on Congress Mulls Research Into a Vehicle Mileage Tax · · Score: 1

    Right, because cop cars wont be equipped with RFID readers the moment this becomes a legitimate method of identifying cars. In fact it will become even easier, the reader can automatically scan every car around it and look it up in a database then tell the officer what he SHOULD be seeing. of course as someone else pointed out during rush hour and such it will be difficult for a police officer to match what the computer says he should see with what he does, but when your going down a quiet street and theres a nearby cop being told he should see a red Ford and instead he sees a beige Toyota you can bet he's going to be having some very hard to answer questions for you.

    That will be about as effective as changing the license plate on your car. How far do you think you would get before a police officer caught on?

    Except it's not "free", energy is energy whether you get it from the gas in your tank or off the grid it still costs you. Of course you could put solar panels on your roof to charge your car but those also cost money.
