    How about we skip the states and just go for Canada it gets cold as shit up there. I heard stories that they used to have (maybe still do) electric dipsticks to keep your oil from getting too cold and causing your engine to crack when you tried to start it.

    Why would you leave your phone on your dash? Whats the point of a cell phone if its not with you. Plus your just asking for someone to break into your car. As for your backpack thats another dumb place to put your cell. If you are wearing emo pants so tight you can;t fit a phone in your pocket you got more problems.

    So to have longer hdmi cables you just have to shell out $90 for a converter box plus the cost of an extra hdmi cable and the cat-6 cable. That's not too much of a waste or pain in the ass (insert trademarked sarcasm punctuation here)

    Lol there is a difference between easy to use and easy to keep virus free, You have to remember that Dell's primary consumer are computer novices at best. Most computer users would freak seeing a CLI and like being able to buy whatever software they see in BestBuy and just install it.

    Actually its perfectly legal for you to download a copy but if you distribute any of it (which you do while you download with bittorrent) its illegal.

    One thing is if they picked the top 1000 torrent files there are probably 10 or more copies of whatever the newest movies at the time of the study. So out of a thousand I would figure 10% of the thousand torrents were probably just differant cam releases of 7-8 movies. I didn't RTFA so correct me if they accounted for that.

    Most people don't to heavy video, audio, or photo editing. The most people usually do are crop and resize photos for facebook or myspace and small editing of video for youtube. I used to do video editing on my old 466mhz celeron with 64mb of ram. Sure it was slow but most people don't need to edit and preview in real time.

    Besides FOX Broadcast and FOX Cable are separate businesses, so again there's virtually no influence.

    PepsiCo and Tacobell are different companies too. Ever see Coca-cola in a Tacobell? No you haven't because they are both owned by Yum! Brand Inc. That means even if you franchise you have to serve what they deem appropriate. You want to sell coke instead of Pepsi sure you can do that if you become a McDonald's instead. I mean you only have to eat the cost of remodeling and buying the approved appliances oh and don't forget about all those logos you have to change.

    Local channels like FOX 8 are nothing more than a franchise. They get to use the FOX 8 logo, air FOX shows, and use clips from FOX news but they still have to follow guidelines.

    Not everyone who drinks alcohol over does it and causes harm to ones self or others, but there have been alot more families ruined by drunk drivers and a lot more organs that have failed b/c of alcohol than from marijuana. Even heavy smokers are much less dangerous than heavy drinker. No I don't believe smoking weed is much less of a health hazard as a lot of smokers will try to tell you but when it comes to a lesser of two evils I think the scales are tipped very very far in marijuana's favor.

    No I do not I'm sorry if I made it seem like I agree with regulations to force companies to have liberal shows

  20. Re:WTF on GOP Senators Move To Block FCC On Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    And the solution is to FORCE stations to air these shows, even if almost-no one wants to hear them? That's illogical. Talkshows should stand or fail on their own merits, as determined by how many people listen. When the liberal Air America went bankrupt it was sad, but that's the way things go - people weren't interested.

    It's just like horsewhips. Nobody was buying them, so they all but disappeared.

    Oh I never said that they should force stations to have liberal talk shows I think that is stupid. Unless they have viewers they won't have the budget to really compete anyways.

    But if you think that FOX 8 and FOX NEWS have no affiliation and do not share similar views your nutty.

    Well here in Cleveland when I turn on channel 8 there is a FOX symbol in the bottom corner. When the news comes on other than the local and sports stuff it is pretty Conservative in there views and stories. The actual FOX news channel might not be on the public airwaves but there views and opinions sure are.

    Oh and those liberal talkshows never really take off in part that its harder to get an ultra-liberal/hippy audience than and ultraconservative/religious-right one.
