Actually, if you listen to what he said, he wasn't really that far off, especially when you consider that a good portion of his audience had (and probably still has) no idea quite what the internet really is. Never understood all the flak he got for it.
That's stupid. Artificially pricing goods is never a good thing, even if it's done lower. 'Requiring' is just a shitty concept, economically speaking. That's why GP said to fine them heavily enough to discourage such things; it still allows for free market competition, except they have to take the possibility of legal action into consideration as another factor toward that competition. Do you even understand what you just typed?
What a crock of shit. You do realize that at one point in human history people were slaughtered for religion, thrown into an arena to fight to the death, and tortured for being gay/the wrong religion/funny looking? And that this was government-backed activity in the same civilized world that is now somehow 'regressing?' When was humanity ever any less violent than it is now? I'll give you a hint: never.
Just because shit kinda sucks now doesn't mean there was any point in history that sticks out as some beacon of truth, justice, and love. Because it never happened.
It does cover private websites just like the ADA and various smoking bans cover private businesses. Do they care about your Quake website? No, but do keep in mind that there's a difference between 'private,' in the non-government sense, and 'personal.' 'Personal' websites are the ones that won't be affected.
what a crock of shit. lawyers are already on the payroll. you don't take a quick loss over a slow maybe win that you might have to maybe win again when the legal fees are the same either way. when you're talking about clients as big as apple, google, ibm, etc, from an accounting perspective, no. you're not going to pay your attorneys to 'hurry up and lose already.'
Yes. Free speech zones have been designated in various areas throughout the mojave desert, and you will be allowed to use them for 30 days preceding any federal election.
Future perfect tense. Your reading comprehension leaves a lot to be desired. Yes, you can be against continuing something on the basis that it should never have happened in the first place. That is not the same as arbitrarily bitching about things that have already happened.
Speaking of Islamic states, let's topple one of the most secular governments in the middle east and let the Islamic fundamentalists vote in a new leader. Nothing could go wrong there...right? I mean, it's absolutely right to demonize Hussein, but don't try to convince me that they were going to come in and forcefully change our way of life. Especially when Hussein and Al Quaeda were in direct ideological conflict regarding secularism.
Those who can't learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. It never ceases to amaze me how many flag-wavers see the bill of rights as an obstacle to be overcome. I realize full well the futility of bitching about things that have already happened, at the same time, OP's post was about CONTINUING the war. The money that will be spent when we're still fighting this thing 5 years down the road HASN'T already happened. Telling OP to shut up because he takes a stance politically indicates to me that you're just another flag-waver; may God have mercy on your soul.
My brother has a laptop that came with a Radeon. He games extensively on top of developing, and hasn't had a lick of trouble with it to date. This is Windows 7 x64 that I upgraded from Vista for him; had to uninstall the Radeon drivers before the upgrade then reinstall them afterwards. What I'm getting at with my rambling is that he's had no more trouble, driver-related or otherwise, than I have with my 9800gt on the same OS.
I did too in the late 90's and early 2000's. How much of that crap do you remember now? Bordering on nil for me, and as far as knowledge goes, nothing of value was lost.
Exactly. Everyone knows they're full of shit and they're grasping at straws. Hopefully any judge they bring this shit to will tell them to fuck off and diaf.
Slashdot Mirror
why is this modded flamebait? because people on slashdot can't see the acronym 'dink' without immediately thinking of something phallic?
dink = "double income, no kids"
obsessing over something are we?

Being fair is not the same as being an apologist, and you are acting like the latter.

But why is all the rum gone?

porn is horrifying enough in 2d. if they find more than a handful of attractive girls to eat cum from 50 men, then, MAYBE, 3d will be a benefit

Couldn't agree more.
When it comes to terms like 'indecency' and 'obscenity,' it's usually the right involved in the stripping of liberties.
Entirely missing the point.
Yes. Free speech zones have been designated in various areas throughout the mojave desert, and you will be allowed to use them for 30 days preceding any federal election.
You're right. Silence that dissident.
'We are.' Present tense.
we're gonna keep killing...

I don't think you quite understand the purpose of the first amendment.

Newegg makes it pretty easy to compare specs, and I'm assuming you know your price range ahead of time.
Fishnet stockings are always relevant.
