    Adolf Hitler: psychopathic monster or just misunderstood?

  5. Re:Hypocrisy on Hacker McKinnon To Be Extradited To US · · Score: 1

    If every country that the US would want to force its laws on had an extradition treaty with the US, then yes. That's more or less the point of an extradition treaty. Remember, Britain voluntarily gave this man up; it's not like the US sent anyone in to kidnap him.

    Well to be frank, the UK is our Bitch... and the US has sent people in to kidnap all sorts of people from all over the world...

  6. Re:Hypocrisy on Hacker McKinnon To Be Extradited To US · · Score: 2

    This assumes that the crime took place in Britain: a laughable proposal. It is true that the person doing the deed was in Britain at the time

    Well then I hope you are ready to goto trial and jail in some African hell hole because what you are saying is that US LAW is valid for every human on earth.

    Consider this overly-simple example.

    1. African Country passes law stating "It's unlawful for anyone to access any server in their land unless they are a Citizen."
    2. African Country posts random links all over the internet.
    3. People click on these links.
    4. African Country demands these people be deported to stand trial.
    5. Profit!

    Bottom line this man is a citizen of the UK. He was not in the US when he committed said crime. If the US gets to enforce it's version of LAW on everyone else in the world then every other country gets to do the same to US Citizens regardless whether YOU think their laws and punishments are silly or extreme.

    Like I said... nice assurances. I wouldn't be surprised if you're right, but there is nasty crap in smoke residue, so I wouldn't be surprised if you're wrong. Citation?

    O come on now stop being such a jackass. No one is getting cancer from working on a smokers computer. Hell I've worked on them for years and yes they are nasty as hell but for apple to clam it's a safety issue is BS. Put some damn gloves on or just come out and say the real reason. Smoke screws up fans and makes this sticky dust that clogs heatsinks and seems somewhat corrosive to contacts.

    Hey I got an idea, maybe let smokers open up their systems to blow the crap out now and then would be helpful? O wait... that means they won't have to buy a new one... nevermind...
