I'm just saying that I'm starting to feel played by the whole experience so far. You can set a metronome by the timing of story event, seriousness, and wide circulation. You can then set an atomic clock by the precision, volume, and timing of the reply from the other camp. It's like a bad movie.
It isn't like this is even the only ace up their sleeves. Kerry is starting to look like a fallguy to me. If these incredibly brilliant people that have come up with incredibly brilliant ways to attract the press (and have been hugely ignored considering how serious this is), and a live demonstration of a fucking monkey hacking a voting systems doesn't get some of them to ignore their bosses and partisan politics long enough to wake the fuck up and start doing their god damn jobs, Bush will delay the elections long enough to build up more public support in some catastrophically successful way. Think about it.
You used an explicative and it perfectly conveyed exactly what you were thinking. As far as saying fuck, well, it's good enough for Dick Cheney. It's just a word. I for one applaud your use of the word fuck to relay your idea. One would hope you wouldn't mod yourself down for doing it. As for Doom3, I'm more annoyed they didn't release the Linux server binary. There are more Linux game servers on the net than anything else. They definitely dropped the ball. Most of the people I know that run quake3 servers simply haven't bothered with a doom3 server specifically because they don't have any windows servers, and don't even see the point in setting one up since using Linux.
So it's perfectly ok to mod down a message that conveys 100 percent factual information if you don't like the method with which the information is delivered? That's called moderation abuse. Please put your petty sensibilities aside the next time you are a moderator and use the moderation system properly. Poor moderation, like the kind your are describing, does nothing but ruin an otherwise excellent online community. It's not a freaking important job. All you have to do is remove the crap, and promote the good stuff. It's an important point in this case, and 100 percent THE TRUTH. I have one of the most popular Quake3 instagib servers up right now, and it takes a hell of a lot of traffic because it's sitting on an awesome network. I would have had no problem putting up a Doom3 server had they released a binary. THAT is on topic. THAT is relevant to the story. Using petty objections to caps and the word FUCK to justify a downmod is not only ludicrous, it's juvenile. Be an adult.
Oh yeah, I remember that game. The game I QUIT PLAYING BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T RELEASED THE FUCKING LINUX BINARIES. It got boring. I was all fired up to put up a Linux dedicated server too. Too bad they dragged their feet.
I remember feeling this way about the recent "Time Machine" remake. On the bright side, you can grab yourself a bunch of friends and beers and play a decent drinking game by drinking everytime the movie panders to some special interest group, political ideology, or minority that was not in the original story.
Nobody has made a solid state amp that behaves like tubes. There's plenty of decent overdriven pre-amp sounds, but nobody has gotten creamy overdriven poweramp down. To get that sound, I use a traynor ycv40 with a THD-Hotplate attenuator so I can drive the poweramp section of the amp into delicious overdrive while futzing with the pre-amp to get the sound I want. The benefit of the Hotplate being that I don't have to deal with authority figures knocking on my door to get good poweramp overdrive. I'm quite fond of mullard tubes, but they are pretty expensive. Lately I've been very impressed with the JJ/Tesla tubes. Speakers make a huge difference in "getting that sounds" also. Most people automatically identify with a 4x12 closed back cab loaded with Celestion greenbacks, but once again they are pretty expensive. I'm very fond of 2x12 cabs with one greenback and one Vintage 30. The 70/80 speaker that comes stock with the YCV40 is great in an extension cab, but I'll stick with V30's in the amp because they sounds better in a halfback cab than closed back. The 70/80 is the exact opposite. Ones you have the right tubes, cabs, and speakers, it becomes a careful balancing act to get everything to "break" when you want it to simply by playing with your guitar volume controls. I'm happy enough with my setup that I have sharpied lines on my control plate in case the knobs get bumped. The way things are now, if I put the volume knob on my guitar at about 5, I get awesome mellow clean sounds. If I hit the strings really hard, it just starts to break up in the preamp. Turn it up to 7 and the pre/power amps both start breaking (and sounding incredible) unless I'm VERY light on the strings. Anything past 7 starts sounding like a vintage PLEXI in full blown overdrive. You simply can't do this with solid state amps. They can mimic a piece of it, but not the whole enchilada.
In so much as having no sense of humor. That and the blatant censorship is starting to happen. I've actually noticed "politically incorrect" posts disappearing completley. I got my first warning about posting as an AC today. That's kinda the point of posting as an AC. So everyone else can ignore it. If things keep up, it will be just like Fark where everyone is scared to death to speak their mind for fear of bans and censorship.
While you are correct, on a macroscale you have a "competing selfishness" syndrome. Person A is out to screw Person B badly enough to put their bigotry aside. Person A belongs to group 1 while Person B belongs to group 2 and they both have their own biases. The sum of their collective work gets de-biased by person C who has no bias. The information gets collected and eventually some semblance of truth emerges. This isn't always the case, but how would we ever know?

Dude,
There is now profit to be made in "owning" a large group of infected windows machines for sending spam, and packeting sites. Think about that.
Let us all take out a moment to consider how to best 'repay' the spammers who followed for the 100 years of 'joy' they have given us.
I have the kind of love for spammers that makes me want to light them on fire and throw them down a flight of stairs. That's love baby.
