So you install Microsoft's Trojan^WSilverlight into Internet explorer, and you assume that you don't install anything more? Buddy, you're going to be running more software than you can imagine, all installed FOR you by friendly Internet people !
I stopped reading after the 3rd or 4th time they explained what something as simple as an ion was. Hello MIT, you guys are eggheads, not the Discovery Channel.
Look kid, you're different. Want to make friends, and by that I mean save your ass getting kicked? Easy - suck up to, and agree with what at least 51% of the rest of the class does.
If you can dump the effluent from your factories into the rivers and if you don't need to give you workers protective gear, its amazing how financially compelling your argument to build in China becomes. Obviously China will outstrip the workers paradises in Europe, and nobody, least of all the Europeans, are going to complain about polluted rivers and skies in China.
In the US at least, knowing a lot about ANYTHING makes you a nerd, a social outcast, the non-cool guy. Ask a coworker how their boiler works, or how to change their oil. Ask them how to chainsaw a tree. Ask them how to wire a switch, or pull a shot of espresso. Most will look at you like you showed them dirty pictures - "What? Me? Do actual labor?" Combine this with the steady erosion of the effects of causality (helicopter parents, welfare system), combined with the death of Civics as a school subject, and you have population of effete, spoiled sheep, ready to accept whatever shackles are imposed, in order that they be safe and comfortable.
It's Schernau's Razor - "if you do the work, then I don't have to". The IRS is in BUSINESS to collect, process, and audit (the incorrect) returns. They are not required to show any efficiencies, why would they? Every little Napoleon in the org chart beefs up his staff as much as he can.
As long as you do not place restrictions on your executive branch, anything can be used to facilitate a police state. If a cop has unrestricted rights to search you, your days of privacy are over.
It means that some IP spaces are used more heavily, and that if you don't care about getting a response (hello, UDP) then you can make your traffic come from anywhere.
The real question is - if you don't know what this means, why in gods name did the US Gov hand over the logs to you??
Does FreeBSD boot you into X by default yet? I installed the latest and told it "everything" and booted to a command shell. 'startx' returned an error. What gives?
Slashdot Mirror
Does this come with a free set of the magic underwear, or does that have to be bought separately?
How is this important? Go make me a sandwich.

This is trivial to anyone who doesn't live in a city. There's an entire country out there to hide in. Pack some food, and hide in the badlands of ND.

"Now Commander, that torpedo did NOT self-destruct. You heard it hit the hull, and I was never here."
Sure it failed.

My 02 VW is drive by wire, and has never killed me. How can Toyota of all companies, flub this so badly?
If you scratch the top of your scrabble board, you are not out $500.
It sounds like your wife is too fucking stupid to use a computer.
So nothing has changed, but the reach of the FCC grows.
Sounds like a perfect win for them.

The mighty webmeister, who invented looking at web server logs. Navel-gaze much?
But I wouldn't want to live in either.
It's the SKIES that are made of diamonds.
So you take a wave motion gun, and give it to some techs who make $15 an hour, and are union, and you expect them to care where it's pointing?

Since I have a car w/o any electronics, I'm fine. Not that a diesel Rabbit is really going to outrun a cop car anyway.
Ironic, that the mashed trees you so easily dismiss will actually outlast your fancy-schmancy tapes.

They pegged you?
You're not a troll, you're a douche.
