  1. Re:Not again on Inside the AP's Plan To Security-Wrap Its News Content · · Score: 1

    ...where are YOU downloading your mp3s? Without thousands of dollars of audio equipment, one cannot tell the difference between a v0 mp3 file (a rather high quailty mp3 file, true, but also the most common pirated music file to date) and an audio file losslessly ripped from a CD. Similarly, with movies, you have a huge variety of choice in the quality of the movie you're getting. You can go for the 700mb "single cd" xvid, or the 3.5 GB bluray rip xvid, or the 8 GB lossless dvd rip, etc. All for free.

    Probably feeding the troll, but... Do you actually believe that every member of the left in every country on earth is somehow *hiding* their love of death from you? I find it much more likely that they actually believe in woman's right to have an abortion, rather than using it as a facade for their sinister and satanic deathworship. Also, hate to say it, bud, but even if 99% of today's christians are bad christians and, according to various ministers or priests or you aren't "true" christians, they are still representative of their religion. You can try to wish them away, call them extremists or fundamentalists, but they are simply on the far end of the same spectrum that you're on.

    For Ubuntu, Debian, and Fedora mainstream (x86) flavours, bittorrent is the fastest method. However, when you start messing with the lesser known flavours (crunchbang, pclinuxos, puppydog) in the lesser known formats (ppc), a direct http download is simply faster. The PPC build of debian etchy only has like 4 seeds on it right now.

    If it had been leaked by uploading it to a server, would they ban the ftp protocol?

    I disagree. Being black is very, very genetic. Lots of research has been done to try to find the gay gene, and we haven't found it yet. I'm more apt to believe that homosexuality is caused by various environmental factors during childhood. Or that we're all bisexual, and then shaped to be gay or straight based on tradition and societal factors. Because I'm pretty sure it isn't genetic. Obviously it isn't a choice.

    There have been several reports http://cogprints.org/690/ that show that what men find beautiful is directly correlary to how long it takes the brain to process and encode into memory the face. Beautiful means simple, with few convex polygons. Period.

    I am reminded eerily of moot's attempts to distance himself from his own creation, 4chan. in fact, the two communities were eerily similar.

    That's because white people can be made fun of because they haven't gone through anything difficult in the past 3000 years.
