....and, Cuba has lots of sugar. But the land of the free is still mad at Cuba for actions 50+ years ago, so the country remains embargoed and impoverished. Russia, China, Vietnam? They're all good buddies now, lots of forgiveness to go around. Cuba? Fuckem.
Next time we'll just leave you to it yourself, then.
+1 Oh, how I wish I had mod points!!
...except that we all know that the USA absolutely won't leave it alone. As the USA has anointed itself the global top cop, defender of *freedom*, and great tutor of democracy and super-de-duper gubment, it can't help BUT get involved.
Never mind minor matters such as the Military Indu$trial Complex....
mod points, shmod points: keep your stick on the ice, and your head out of your ass.
...not to mention that unions are responsible for the decrease in child labour. Why does he hate children? Please think of the children. I wonder if he beats his wife. I'm convinced he's a terrorist.
...so the people who seek to deny or limit my right to keep and bare arms are no better than the Taliban? Good to know!
I have plenty of t-shirts, plus many short-sleeved dress shirts, and I've never felt my rights to wear them have been limited. Granted, both Homer Simpson and Sipowitz have given the dress shirts their blessings, so I *know* I'm in good company, hence the Taliban can go fuck themselves, remaining single, so this decision doesn't affect them....
Problem is I have a life. My friends use Facebook to organize social events, they won't keep up if I change my phone number ever month or two.
Problem is, I, too, have a life, and I don't have a Facebook account. Are your Facebook friends all so shallow that they wouldn't/couldn't erm, I dunno, PHONE you? or TEXT you? or EMAIL you? or KNOCK ON YOUR FUCKING DOOR?
This bullshit "I need Facebook or I won't have a life", doesn't indicate a lack of life, it indicates a lack of brain, so yeah, perhaps the same thing.
Brilliant! If you happen to be of the correct age and nationality, you might get this, the other 99% of readers will have no clue as to the reference....
What do you do for NHL games that are blacked out of NHL Center Ice because they are shown on national or regional cable television? Last year the freaking finals were shown on what is now NBC Sports Network, a cable channel.
It may take some searching, but running xbmc>navi-x or 1channel, I've been able to find *most* games blacked-out on gamecenter. I cut the chord (satellite dish) 6 weeks ago and I'm not looking back, saving $100 per month....
Well, not to put too fine a point on it, but it doesn't seem to be working.
Isn't it?
Whilst the "content-cartels" occasionally ruin the odd-person's life, hundreds of millions, if not a billion, people continue to share files, every second of every day. Young whippersnappers under 30 don't even *get* what the fuss is about (or why we even *share* (or own) music files when there's spotify, grooveshark, pandora...)
And I do think it's tragic, and despicable, that even one person is ruined by the various aa's and their/our bought-and-paid-for politicians/legislatures.
Ultimately, the few sporadic *gains* by the bad guys pale in comparison to the sheer number of those who don't feel threatened. Or who rightly believe it's an amoral issue unworthy of their attention.
It's not unlike weed use. Are the anti-weed folks winning? Sooner or later (measured in decades...) common sense does indeed prevail.
A lot of us may not live long enough to experience it, though.

B-but what if she's like, super HOT, and I really, really want a second fuck? It'll last more than 4 milliseconds next time, honest!

...social democracy....
The mere use of those two words, especially together, caused almost half of the USA readership to disregard your post.
cheers,
Protip: I'd mod you up, but that would be cuntish.
Apple stands behind no one. It would cast a shadow on the shiny.
Very well-worded and insightful comment. No mod points, just letting you know.
cheers,

I threw fedora away and went with slackware.
As for the neckbeard, it's chest hair, you insensitive clod.

Thank you for my morning smirk.

...Posting as AC to keep these whack-jobs the fuck away from me...
Indeed, because posting using your usual nom de plume: i'm.afaid.of.CoS would lead them right to your door.
You dismiss their *magic*, yet you fear using a pseudo on /. ?
THAT is irony, Alanis....
cheers,
Cut the guy some slack. He may actually be the one person on earth who can fix a borked Windows box without reinstalling from scratch.
You're so wrong on that, AC.
Millions of us have fixed a borked Windows box, without installing LFS. We use one of the thousands of *nix distros, Slackware being my preference.
cheers,
If they're pirating Apple software ... then they would enjoy that.

Now THAT is funny.

Yes, I agree wholeheartedly. Why should we be subjected to articles about stuff you know nothing about?
Indeed, the articles should only relate to areas of your expertise, like realtime midget scat porn, and arithmetic for 'tards.
Looking forward to your daily updates.

It's a shame you don't feel the same way about code tags....
cheers,
You promised to never share our secrets in public.
It's over.
But is it moral or immoral, that's the actual question.
It's amoral, so there is no question despite the best efforts of many to categorize it wrongly.
