I learned at a young age half of your job is just making sure people like you and trust you. I'm not saying lie to them or be deceitful, but have a good personality will take you pretty far. If you have a good personality and skills the sky is the limit.
I dunno why he's getting down modded. I'd rather be told click on the coke ad than type something I can hardly read. Then again I have trouble seeing so I might not represent the majority.
If these keywords weren't generating revenue for the ad buyers they wouldn't bid on them. It's really that simple. Those names make money for marketers with those ads.
In a senario like that the wealthy would be safe, because they could afford a private police force. They middle class neighborhoods would be safe, because they as a whole (neighborhoods setup with stuff like HOAs) could afford a private police force. Poor neighborhoods would be more than likely ran by some sort of gang (a lot are even now).
I don't think you read what he posted correctly. He was happy when he had them then they stole them from him. It's like me selling you a car then deciding I want the car back. So I go to your house take it from your driveway and keep your money.
Um, yes it is. If you're living in an anarchist society you can use whatever you want for money. If you want to use bitcoins that's fine. All you have to do is find someone willing to do business with you in bitcoins. If I want to use goats that's fine to. No one would be forcing you to use any one thing as money.
According to various types of political anarchist (there's more than one group communist anarchist, ancap, etc) living in an anarchist society would be an improvement to civilization and not the fall of it. The view of a society is subjective. Some people place personal freedom above all else. In order for them to have the personal freedom they want a central government can't exist. They view the government as an entity that exists solely to rob, murder, and kidnap anyone who doesn't agree with their arbitrary laws.
In their society there would still be a need for money, because they would still be doing business with each other. Money is anything someone else places a value in. If you want to come work for me then we'd sign a contract that outlines what your job is and what compensation you require. I could pay you in gold, silver, goats, beads, etc.
What I said probably only pertains to ancap, because that's the only group I've actively read anything on. I plan to get to the other groups though.
If you or I believe that's a viable political structure is a different conversation.
There is a major difference between political anarchy and chaos. In political anarchy you still have order, but instead of a central government controlling everything it's done with voluntary contracts at the individual level. One of the core beliefs an anarchist has is personal freedom via volunteerism is the only real kind of freedom. There will still be a need for money in a society like that. It could be gold, silver, beads, goats, or whatever the two people doing business agree on.

For me personally, I hate dual booting. When I get stumped or just need a momentary break I'll load up WoW and dink around (go fishing, talk to guildies, etc). Then something will hit me I'll tab out or shut it down completely and go back to working on whatever the problem was. If I have to dual boot this isn't possible. The only reason I have a Mac is because it's the closest thing to Linux / Unix I can run that has native clients for the games and other programs I want. To be quite honest I'd never buy another mac again if I could get a native (or decent emulation) WoW client once my Steam library is all available on Linux.
Yes, I know you can run WoW in WINE, but it was horrible the last time I checked it out. I check it out every so often just in case it's gotten to the same level or even close to the same level as the native OSX client. Hopefully this will be a smashing success not only because he deserves it to be, but other game makers will take notice and possibly start developing native Linux clients for their games.

It's probably not which is why I'd never use it. It's proven that's where the government hides it's backdoors.
You could if you were a cromag, but then you'd probably just eat them for dinner.
My great grand-dad did and there was a person sitting in the airplane. If I remember right he just had to pay a fine.

Someone who has never been in that position won't understand.
Depends where you are. There are many parts of the country that it would.

It's not I'm searching for a bondsman. It's more of I search for a name and oh look an ad. I need one of those *click*.

A private police force wouldn't consist of rent-a-cops. They'd consist of people trained just as well as the police are currently.

An "oh machine" has already been created. I don't think we really want that super smart though.

There is more to the world than US. I've never heard of Verizon, Comast or time warner
First time to slashdot?
Why would the world be safer?
If I have to read about an attention whore I'd prefer them to be bat shit crazy. It makes the stories more interesting.
I thought of this when I read the summery http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rvQrLbxO_A
I can understand his frustration, but national treasure? That's a little ridicules.

Gold is even useful in a real anarchistic society.

Replace EVE with WoW and I'd completely agree with you (I'm not saying EVE sucks or anything of the sort, but I play WoW and not EVE).
