Now, Facebook has tried hard to make that less true with features with tagging of images that build up their own database of historical information that is a bit harder to move over to another site.
But to support your argument it would not be that difficult to write an application to export your entire Facebook account details. If you were smart about it you could even keep the names and facebook ids of each user who has used the migration tool and as people shift across using the tool they would get there old lives back.
Governments are generally about the economy and slowing internet access down by %86 and dropping us into the dark ages is probably not a good idea in this day and age.
I think it will be just easier for Rudd to sack Conroy and he will look like a saint for doing so.
I also have no idea why an independent goverment run ISP is not set up and parents are urged to sign up for it and they can have there own content manipulated and monitored by the goverment and leave the rest of us out of it. Kind of obvious its an invasion of privacy otherwise.
Firstly The Government will always be able to manipulate the firewalls rules anyway. Privately ran or not. I doubt there is anywhere in the contract that says they are forbidden to do so
Secondly if they know about these child porn sites, why don't they spend some money on locking people hosting the filth up. Or at least demand it be shut down fix the problem at the root. I am sure something more can be done, no one wants to spend any money though.
Finally, I am not big on conspiracy theories but we in the west are all getting our privacy interfered with and our freedom of speech could so easily follow. Governments are making it so easy to hear what you and everyone around you are saying that is whats scary.
Once a scheme like this is in place it probably not long before the Government make up there mind to filter out sites which boast "terrorist content"
Yeah I agree this sucks no *BSD Support is unbelievable.
Thank god for the GNASH people but really they should not have to carry this weight.
Bring on Moonlight!
Hopefully it can help make the internet accessible to all who a a big part of building it once again.
Yeah you don't have to use wine but I agree its totally fucked for people who run FreeBSD.
I hate Adobe!!! The day an alternative looks like becoming popular I will do everything I can to support it. I don't really want to waste my time on open source flash projects because Adobe does not want to give us a chance to help them or ourselves.
Also very amusing are large very wealthy companies have websites that are still not accessible to people who do not have flash for what ever reason, its laughable these webmasters are a joke.
We cannot be like the rest of the dictatorships and communist governments and hide from the fact that this is reality and we are infidels in these peoples minds.
The more we are educated about this kind of behavior the more we will know what to think of these morons as time goes on this is a problem we in the west are going to have to deal with.
Really if anything its a good thing these videos are online IMO, they are only making fools of themselves and educating us in the west of there ways and activities.
Like I just got scammed by web sense! RSS Spam Its a new type of advertising scam, writing slightly interesting articles and posting them on news for nerd sites with a little wrap about your self at the end.
Google for Character map and you will find things like below:
http://www.atm.ox.ac.uk/user/iwi/charmap.html
Or you can just use the Character map I am sure a lot of window systems have, Gnome I am sure has one.
More like NASA lied in the first place so they did not have do do anything about it.
"Oh yeah 450 to 1 chance, right, um, we'll get right on it...damn kid"
"Oh yeah I am terrified of bot nets, the poor routers oh god won't some body think of the routers. Those terrorist have really scared me this time...lets read employees emails thats going to stop them!"
Lets face it thousands of employers around the world go through employee email all of the time this is nothing new the only difference is you can get the sack for having fun now.
Good way to get someone locked up or thrown in gaol, all you need to do is spoof some emails and boom instant terrorist.
Yeah I know, I think its just a lot for some people to deal with so there is plenty of denial going on around the world that it is getting so critical.
I understand what you are trying to say, I think that way to! Why are we just burning such good stuff? Nylon, Plastics are handy for so many things. Obviously it sucks because it ends up in landfills but if its used appropriately for important things it would not be much of a problem.
It's just the disposable society we live in at the moment really.
I have real problems buying ANYTHING with the famous and hopeless 'Made in China' label attached to it.
I spend extra time to seek out products made in the West.
Its my own stupid fault if I actually pay for a
product thats made in China and expect it to work and last.
I even try to find western made electronic components if I can, German stuff I find superior and it is plentiful in certain fields.
Its getting frustrating here in Australia with quality tools, brands like Stanley and Makita have begun to sell out even more and it is becoming increasingly difficult to find tools that are made in the west, for some that might not sound like a problem but for me I frequently use drills etc and to have them pike out constantly is expensive and its a major waste of materials as they just end up in the bin constantly, poorly made products have a major impact on the environment, everything becomes so disposable its just ends up in a landfill.
What scares these days though is food that is "Made in China" here in Australia supermarkets have created there own brands ie "Woolworth's Select" and If you read the back of the packets a huge amount of their product comes from China and surrounding countries, fair enough if my new cordless drill does not work properly but when my Fruit and Veg has problems, I have problems.
I recommend trying to seek out quality products, most things I own now have been manufactured in the west I feel more relaxed going about my day to day activities knowing my chisels wont blunt or break whilst working on soft pine and my food is not going to contain MSG and my dogs toys aren't painted with toxic goo.
Lately NOTHING I have purchased in China has been good quality and lasted and I always end up regretting buying the product and feel guilty and ripped off when it ends up in a landfill after a week of use.
Off topic I know but I thought it was an important point to make.
That may be true, but the LHC is being built for several reasons, one being to prove the theory of the Higgs Boson, they need to see it, obviously some doubt surrounds the maths behind these concepts or else it would need not be proven it would be fact just like the sky is blue and the earth orbits the sun.
Hawking Radiation has never been observed, it is unproven nobody can tell you for certain it actually exists.
By turning on this machine scientists are 'hoping' they will observe hawking radiation amongst a whole lot of other things.
I am kind of annoyed about this LHC because the CERN website tries to tell the public that we are all safe from MBHs because of hawking radiation, but this is clearly a lie when hawking radiation only exists in theory, I do not appreciate being lied to particularly when it comes to science experiments.

Yup ricochet is not a problem unless there is a mirror or other light reflective surface around.
Why don't they just install a picture of bill gates with a whip or something. Ubuntu here everyone comes!
I thought the exact same thing, I notice all the cows around here pointing south!
Yeah, shame flash is so popular though.
Oh well we all know he is good at making something out of nothing.
He is perfectly suited for the role of trying to make something out of Vista.

Thats not a chair, This is a chair. Well sorta, but thats what you need if you're a real hardcore programmer.

I beleive you are paying for a pathetic product. Good point though.

Cool now all Microsoft needs to release is a second life so that you have time to sit there and go over you're first one.

Mate, you are spot on!
Yeah breaks are the most important I would agree.
Not only for you're eyes but you're neck back and respiratory system, I find myself shallow breathing whilst concentrating heavily, hard to avoid.
Believe me, I do.
