Speaking as someone who has been a Graveyard Support Vampire King. (graveyard shift supervisor) You work those shifts for a few reasons: 1. genetics- some people are just better able to work at night 2. Club Kiddies - most IT places say you have to work one day of the weekend, but if you work the Saturday 12:30 to 8:30am shift your up at night to go clubbing all weekend. 3. the money, theres a shift premium at most places, they pay you a few dollars more an hour to take less calls. With that in mind you get a very interesting crew.
I have served in the Canadian military as a peacekeeper in places where for political reasions we wernt allowed to shoot back, we just kinda had to stand there and be shot at. I know how much war sucks for the grunt, but think what happens when it dosn't. Think about what happens when there isnt a push by civilans for speedy resolutions for a war. if war was cheep and didnt cost human lives your goverment would still be in vietnam, or they would have conqured it. Are you so wrapped up in manifest destiny that you wont look outside your own borders. if war stops being a tragity for the people fighting it there their is no reasion to stop fighting. The war will go on forever, wars arnt ment to go on forever, there are a quick solution to long term problems, war shouldnt be a first resort, but a last one.
Long and short, when we let robots do our fighting for us, it becomes so cheep to make war that its cheaper to make war then peace. his is why I feel that people should always be required for the front line, war has to suck so it will always be a last resort.
You guy should sue your government. your national anthem is flagrant false advertising. you are most defiantly not the land of the free and the home of the brave. your the land of the indentured to corps and the home of the paranoid.
Come to Canada, we will let you have your freedom, just leave your violence back in the US.
I will not work with ANY company that works with those evil *deleted*. I will no longer use e-bay or paypal. they want my business back, go neutral or allow all religious groups to delete auctions.
between the hydrocarbons, the ice to produce hydrogen and now the plasma its really starting to sound like the place to open a cosmic truck stop is Saturn, its got like tonnes of energy sources waiting to be used.
everything you have written here makes perfect sense, there just a few problems.
1. the objective of a politician is to get into power and stay there, as long as possible. therefore anything that could remove them from power will be struck down, as they are the ones voting on it.
2. your under the mistaken impression that enough voters care about what happens in government. The Americans have been so brow beat into thinking that their vote doesn't matter, with that much voter apathy I doubt you could get enough people angry enough to get those resolutions passed.
3. America is heading to a police state, there arnt going to submit anti police state legislation.
sorry but if you setup content filters on my hardware then you will have to scan my information to make sure the filter works, if you scan my data and get a copy of something that I have written (the the virus thats set to be transmitted to you) then you will be committing corporate espionage as I have a corp (costs about $250 bucks to setup in Toronto)and you are viewing corporate data.
I'll take my millions now, save you time.
Ok, but I don't follow his God, I'm a Astru Priest (follow the Norse gods) so what does it matter if I see an image of him, I might think "hey hes a cool looking guy" but thats as far as it'll go. A true believer wont case because their religion shouldn't be whats in front of them, but whats in their heart. I would think they would/should be more concerned about making sure they fully believe then what the people who pay lip service think.
but that may just be me.
I gotta know, why is it so disrespectful to show a picture of Muhammad? and if pictures are so bad why do they not ban cameras outright? I don't understand, and I think explaining it as opposed to just complaining would help out a lot here. Educate people, it works better then explosives...
2008: IBM's "skynet" named jokingly after the terminator franchise goes online.
2010: Military and civilian networks are all tied into skynet
2011: skynet becomes self aware
2012: skynet nukes us all and its robotic servants hunt the last remaining humanity, fighting them is the resistance.
personally I'm glad my name isn't John Connor
ah http://www.prospector.cz/Free-Internet-services/Web-proxy/ , without you I would be torrent-less...that is of course if I lived there. Fortunately I live in Canada the Tortuga of the internet, where the torrents flow like water and our government is still afraid of its people.
is this like a update or a reformat?
because if its like a reformat that this might be the cure for aids...think about it...HIV wipes out your immune system right? well if you let it then hit your body with a new immune system then it might fail and the person might be cured...I'm just a tech but in the computer world if a virus wipes out your securty software you install a new piece from a protected source and kill the virus...
Slashdot Mirror
tried to read TFA, much to my surprise it isn't there...someone got the story?

then the gas companies will hush this up fast. There is no way they want people making fuel.
can I ask a silly question... if you don't like your government that much, why do you not revolt and over throw it? if you want your freedom, take it.
do Asimov law's apply to replicators? if not how long till whackjob's start making weapons in them?
