We really need to take the USA out of the internet-control. About everything is illegal in the USA and we should not take the risk they keep shutting more and more sites down. Yesterday it was for the children, today it's for the really rich and bad guys (riaa) and tomorrow it's because you tweeted you would go to LA and dig up Marilyn Monroe to party like there is no tomorrow. The world is in need of a new internet, a true internet without the current system of root-servers. A 100% decentralized internet, or in the event that isn't possible, an internet where the rootservers are in international waters. It's become to dangerous and we need to act. Fast.
With all due respect to every democrat in the US, only our government is afraid enough to be your allies... The public opinion is a bit different from that. Having said that, nothing wrong with Joe US or Jane US, but most people here consider * i steal your resources and threaten you bully-US* not a friend;)
Here in the Netherlands, where it is perfectly legal to download a movie (can't upload though) we have these since VHS...
First a FBI warning, an institute that as absolutely no rights or business here, then a RIAA warning (again, no business here) and then the Dutch 'Brein' Warning...
And then a couple of trailers I have on interest in... All in all you're going to lose between 5 and 10 minutes of your life being told lies that piracy is stealing (which of course it isn't)
Man, I the only movie I ever bought was the Godfather collection, v2000, VHS and DVD... Because those are the only 3 movies good enough to tolerate that shit! (Although in practice, I just watch the torrent....)
I always found it a shame that such a rich world as the elder scrolls has, was only single player. It seemed to be missing that true interaction at times, while it's still and incredible world. I would applaud this, but I think we all know this will be a paid monthly subscription and they will find a way for micro-transactions. Personally I feel that is a shame for such a rich world.
The lasting thing one should want in a plane is when the landing is rough, or even worse, a crash, is to be getting hit by the Ipod or Ipad from the guy sitting 17 seats behind you. In the event of a crash where the cabin will fill with smoke in just seconds you don't want to be navigating the exit lights while avoiding slipping over a tablet or other gadget. What if the guy next to you, at the exit-zone, is sitting there with his tablet when you need to (e)vacate the plane? That is costing you precious seconds, and seconds is all you get when there is a real emergency. Please don't lift the ban. In time people will pay with their lives. A low weight tabled, phone or other gadget will do a mighty good job at becoming a projectile in the event of a really rough landing.
So true! I tell people all the time I have read Schopenhauer. I often leave out the part of not getting through the 150+ pages of pre-word though... That guy makes me want to go all Zen on motorcycles. Then again, Nietzsche is even worse. Fascist idiot that was.
I don't think you understand me. Not trying to speak up for MS at all. Speaking up for a guy who changed lives. On the pc - for the worst. In Afrika - for the better.
And next time, show some balls. Use your account.
Long time linux lover here. Long time hater of MS policy and business practice. However, this man, who was once the richest man in the world has in the latest 15 years of his life great things for humanity. Things that actually make a different for people. I don't care how much you hate windows or Gates as the former president of that company, but surely you can't be against him spending so much of his fortune (and sure, he has enough money to have a comfortable life even with doing this) to make lifes better... Give the guy a break on this part. He has spend a fortune on his foundation and did so with many great projects that actually got shit done. (no phun intended)
Not really related, but for me kde 3.5 was the time I switched all stations to flux.
Before I used flux on my older hardware and KDE on my main-pc. It looked good, worked good. Had all I need and lots more.
KDE 3.5 was a complete new experience. Getting shit done seemed to be less important than getting shit look good. And I look good from myself, by nature. So I only need to get shit done. KDE 3.5 and above and the new Gnome got in the way of that. At least for me. But they look great, I have to give them that. The eyecandy is great.
Now it's getting interesting and I sure as hell hope you don't use xorg's xserver to boot that nice KDE of yours. If you do, you are using the code of a terrible human being! (at least, parts of it)... Now, grow up, kid.
Come on fanboi... If you like KDE by all means, use it. No need at all to respond like this, with personal attacks and a child-like manner of expression. Love to hear about the stupid hardware choices I made btw.
I remember when they first started out. Their gui-system would replace windows, but better. With less bloath and more freedom for users. Those days are long gone.
I do hope the guys at kde understand that this will mean a new (and probably) big lost of users. AMD should get their drivers straightened out, but I can't help but have the feeling this will bite KDE in the butt and not AMD.
Still a shame those gui's became so bloathed and slooowwww. And thank God for fluxbox and the likes.
Hmmm, ok, maybe you should download or rent the docu Gasland. Without a lot of words it shows us what all those other studies except this 1 (in texas, done under supervision by a guy who has on his cv: and my experience in private firms......) have to say. Until proven (!) in practice... like it should be... I will stay with my current and correct opinion. This method is not only dangerous, it's a scorched earth tactic. As all the wells that are currently in existence have proven. So now it's up those guys who did this research to provide us with proof they are right.Let us now hope they won't start a 'proof pit' near anyone you or me, loves.
So, who payed for it? Are there any ties with the oil-industry? Via-via-ties do count. I ask this because every other investigation I have seen all have the same thing in common: Putting about 3000 different chemicals (mostly very toxic) into the ground is a mayor threat to drinkingwater and should never ever be repeated again. Except in Texas apparently. Only that is reason enough to just not continue this. The cost don't weight up to the benefits. (Not even on an economical scale)
Lol... apple would (and does) lick many a heel just to be able to get those slaves there... Apple wants cheap slaves. China provides them. Apple will have to comply. And not don't forget, the Chinese market is a bit bigger than US and EU combined. China doesn't give a fuck about apple. Sure, it's nice for them they are there, but seriously apple doesn't make a different for China. China however, makes all the difference for apple. Yeps, apple is screwed and rightfully so. Apple hates copyright infringment, so they will understand this court order more than anyone.

While I agree the 2 others are better, I still find the ending of 3 one of the best scenes of all time.

Oh wow... that eh, yeah that is kind of idiotic. The copied movies already had more value, but this will only make that worse.

Of course they force her... she is 16 and looking good!
But to be true, I think you are right, in retrospect, the LAN / play with a couple of friends-thing would be way more awesome!
Hi, I'm a modder, your first-born, is it a she and around legal age? I''ll give you my mail, oh wait, doorbell...

But, does it run linux?
During take off and landing... YES!

Ah I am sorry, I didn't realize it was me that was attacking without any knowledge on the person instead of the topic. My bad. Have a nice day. Kid.
