    Most people's understanding of how a computer works is essentially, "by magic." By the time you finished explaining this setup, they would already have concluded you are either a terrorist or some kind of evil wizard. Probably both.

    So it would actually benefit most consumers.

    That's fine if it's optional. But I don't see anything beneficial about a requirement of what color car I can drive.

  21. Disassociation on KY Appeals Court Nixes Seizure of Gambling-Linked Domains · · Score: 1

    This kind of thinking by the political leadership of Kentucky

    I appreciate you disassociating Kentucky's citizens from it's current political leadership. When this story first broke a few months ago, Kentuckians were just as surprised as anyone. All that was known about the administration was that it intended to leverage gambling to bring more revenue into the state. What happened came completely out of left field as far as I'm concerned.

    I'm not embarassed or ashamed by what happened, however, since.. I didn't vote for him.
