The online community has to learn that NO, you can't just do what you want. If you want a contract to be valid, then the other guy has to agree to it. The worse your contract, the fewer people will agree. If you worsen the TOS, then some of your people will leave you.
The problem is that they effectively said even if you leave, they're going to do it anyway. That's like your landlord still charging you rent after you've already been moved out for a few month - and he amended the lease without your explicit permission.

I support this bill in its entirety, and I've thought of a brilliant viral campaign: we have the lion from Metro-Goldwyn Mater bite off the foreskin. "Grrrrr.... RAWR!"
Most truckers don't pay for their own gas, the company picks it up. Doubling the gas tax is going to hurt big companies, yes. It might even put some people out of business. That's what happens when you raise taxes, but it needs to be done and it needs to be adjusted for inflation.
The worst part of American patriotism is that we deify leaders of the past. FDR, another revered leader, also put certain racial groups into concentration camps. I've seen plenty of liberals defend him as saying that he wanted to "protect them", which is just as sensible as saying Hitler wanted to protect the Jews.
Playing Devil's Advocate here, but I don't recall FDR getting any ovens fired up.
Aren't there more than a few "Paintball turrets" floating around on the 'net that basically do this already? I recall seeing one that was already for sale as a package.
I'd love to have one of these to get rid of the animals that poop in my backyard. Better biodegradable paint than cat shit.
And with a little hacking into an alarm system and replacing paintballs with ball bearings...

Hello fellow Gundam 00 fan!
Spelling mistakes... hmm... he's a hacker! GET 'IM!
Thankfully, here in Europe we have saner laws.
For now.
And a lot of the schools in Japan are hellholes exactly because of those rules. Sometimes kids need to be smacked upside the head.
That's where you pay a hooker for a blowjob, right?

Here's hoping for an EPIC win.
Reuters reports that Facebook executives were seen at a press conference pinky swearing, and gave the additional statement of "No takesie-backsies."
That chick in the top banner, is her name Tivo by any chance?

I thought the tech/audio fields preferred Mac for its advantages over Windows? (ProTools, Firewire, etc.)
I mean Jesus Christ Mac gets Garage Band out of the box and Windows gets, what, Windows Sound Recorder?
Way to ruin a good joke with those lame facts, man.
We wouldn't notice anyway. If you do a bit of WHOIS research you'll find that /. actually piggybacks on the server for mantrain.com.
Who would pay $107 for your books at a brick and mortar bookstore when you can get them for $100 for them (with free shipping) on amazon.com?
Someone who wants the books today instead of 3-5 days.
Why don't they just use arrows?
Right, because if something is illegal then that means nobody will do it, ever.
Can you do it with a Pringles Cantenna?

Yes, but it'd be boring when I put the video up on YouTube.
And as for a counter to home invasion, what do you expect me to do? Hook up a bunch of cardboard cutouts to a model train set?

Micromanagement is a meme attached to StarCraft.
Fixed.
Then the gas tax should be higher. Less people driving on roads in better condition.
A lot of people don't like the potential of having their location timestamped in a database somewhere.
