oh please.. it's very easy and politically expedient to make a public statement that will have no influence on anything. It's one of the more common tactics in this charade to hide real intentions. Between your two factions, there is no opposition, only bickering..
You put the vote off on these laws until after the election.. So everybody will forget by the next election. They could've passed it without serious consequence.. Hell, nobody's protesting the wars. You think anybody gives a damn about this?
Fuck Obama, and all this stupid politics.. He and the party are on their side.. Always have been, in case you haven't noticed yet. It's time for the damn customer to man up and read their contracts, and mark out the parts they don't like..
:-) Nice try... but Linux will actually run the file check automatically if there's a problem, just like Windows chkdsk, or after a set number of remounts, a minor inconvenience that forces me to take a break and have a smoke... such a horrible life...
...this is a data breach affecting 77 million people...
Yeah, isn't it exciting? And after it's all over they might win a Spiderman box set, or a ten dollar gift certificate, redeemable at the nearest Sony store. Winners are responsible for taxes and fees. Must be present to win. Void where prohibited by law.
And these corporations, they're run by what, martians? See, it still makes no difference. All we are seeing is how power evolves. Humans are just the medium, not really in any direct control.
Personally, I believe that heckling the hecklers is the better way to go. It actually adds to the show and can draw a good crowd. Verbal abuse should be taught as a martial art in the schools.
You don't have call blocking? You can also turn off the ringer and let the machine pick up.. I don't let the telephone interrupt meal time or my sleep.
It won't stop them from raiding your house, or taking your machine from you at the airport, and just keeping it. Waddya gonna do about it? Eh? A bunch of nothing, that;'s what...
'terribleness' is in the eye of the beholder.. User 'outrage' continues to convert into dollars, however, your indignation is noted:-)
you know, it's really time to cut with the child like innocence over this privacy bullshit. The plain simple fact is, you have none. You gave it up a long time ago. You aren't getting it back. The only issue is them collecting what they can without getting caught..And then they'll make up something like a 'breach occurred'*.. pay the fine and continue onward.
You can't stop them from having this information.. You can and should stop them from using this information They are going to continue collecting it, with or without your knowledge/approval. It will be encrypted in the hardware, and there's not a damn thing you will be able to do about it.

An article about itty bitty peltiers? Do they come in white?

150 comments so far and only 4 about Slackware, all others talking about Ubuntu.
Well, when something is perfect, what's left to say or discuss about it? I mean, other than the one or two missing libs?
:-) Nice try... but Linux will actually run the file check automatically if there's a problem, just like Windows chkdsk, or after a set number of remounts, a minor inconvenience that forces me to take a break and have a smoke... such a horrible life...
I see no reason to believe that.
'Ordinarily, we'd be reassured by this...'
You would?! Why would anybody ever believe such BS? See, that the problem right there, you'll believe anything that looks all glossy 'n shit..
Name one... If there ever was a business where nice guys finish last, this would be it.

Was there even anything worth acquiring in this sale?
There was, but hopefully we dodged a bullet
You mean like 'Apple'?
Unfortunate for their customers, but it shows how unwise it may be to be a Sony customer
At around 29 bucks, maybe it's not so unwise to become a Sony investor..
...we live in reality...
We make the reality
And you know as well as anybody that any prospective legislation will never be applied to anything the size of Sony.
And these corporations, they're run by what, martians? See, it still makes no difference. All we are seeing is how power evolves. Humans are just the medium, not really in any direct control.

But let's not confuse "chinese government" with "chinese people."
What the hell is that supposed to mean? Is the Chinese government run by Albanians, or what?
I take it this will be a 'full service' station, nod nod wink wink

Turn off the detectors.. That'll stop 'em.. er. I mean.. ??
You wouldn't be claiming 'innocence', or anything like that, would you?

I wouldn't want them having this information.
