Please enlighten me as to the meaning of the following statement
"How in hell you make a religion out of a simple concept demonstrated by bursting a baloon is beyond me."
And this is not illegal.....
really....
This has Got to be illegal.
There is NO WAY you could be liable for the phone bill if you don't agree to the service.
I think you forgot that the Anti-DeCSS people wanted to use it to encrypt the cue::cat so that it can not be used in linux, resulting in the contiued world domination of M$.
It was also used to stuff ballot boxes in the Yugoslavia elections for the current president, knowing full well that when the roiting is over M$ would own the country.
In the next few weeks it wil be used to turn the vatican into the largest ever p0rn site & cause natile whats-her-name form the phantom menace to die in a grits accsident.......
The whole thing is being ploted by ELVIS (Gates is just a pawn here folks)
(I think thats all the/. theams covered let me know what i left out)
And the major labels
Yup UhHUH
They are only looking after my best intrests after all. and ANOTHER 300 boys bands all singing the same souless crap is in my best intrests.
And it is not like Record Execs have a bad rep in the morality department.
for instance planes do not have a mid-air collision what they actully do is have a "loss of seperation" or some times a "seperation of zero" according to air trafic controlers.
and acording to the US military thier missiles do NOT crash they "impact prematurely" presumably a miss is a "impact post-maturely" but I have never heard that one.
lets be brutaly honest all these are minor compared to "continue on" & "irrregardless"
One of those Desk-tops firewalls would be cool.

a new job
Street sweeper shotgun moded to use a belt feed.
A heard of buffalo can only move as fast as the
slowest buffalo, and when the herd is hunted; it
is the slowest and the weakest ones at the back
that are killed first.
This natural selection is good for the heard as
a whole, because the general speed and health
of the whole group keeps improving by the regular
attrition of the weakest members.
In much the same way, the human brain can
only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells.
Excessive intake of alcohol, we all know, kills
brain cells, but naturally, it attacks the slowest and
weakest brain cells first.
In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates
the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster
and more efficient machine.............
THAT'S WHY YOU ALWAYS FEEL SMARTER
AFTER A FEW BEERS!!!!
the windows 95 works well. no complants with Napster etc.
I have not attempted to put my linux box on as of yet, but there are web pages on the subject. (No time but soon.)
There are also hacks out there for increased bandwidth in W9X. Don't havent had a chance to see if there are hacks for linux also.
Great. Wonderful. In the United States there is a law.
But we were debating what "Freedom of Speech" means, not weather or not there was a law covering it....Or I am compleatly missing your point one or the other.
"How so? It's free speech, not "free speech, as long as you follow our guidelines". Nowhere have I ever heard any definition of free speech that says someone has to be "relevant or @ least meaningfull""
Why not? if your comunication is disrupting the flow of communication by others is it free speech or Vandalisim. Why do you assume that your right to be heard saying googah is any more important that anyone elses right to comunicate. Esp if your saying gogah impeades the right of someone else to communicate.
"That's fine. But then don't go on pretending that you are all for free speech, when you can't meet that ideal yourself."
I can't and don't claim to be pro-free speech. Free speach usually ends up defending something like kiddie porn or the Turner Diarys, quite frankly I can't see the social benifit of either, I am however in favor of responsable speech.
And no that does not mean that you can say and do whatever you want.
Freedom of speech REQUIRES that the individual be motivated to say something relevent or @ least meaningfull.
At some point there has to be a line drawn that says what is freedom of speech and what is static. This is what court battles are about, where the line is, for this socity today. (realising that the line will be different tommorow)
You crossed the line for the slashdot socity. Slashdot is not a social club. It is a news service, that allows people to post opinions. your opinions were found to be unwarented by five people (a sampling of the comunity). You were not Censored. You were told to grow up.
In short:
Freedom of speech DOES NOT GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO BE AN ASSHOLE. It gives you the right to express yourself as long as other people are willing to listen.
They are releasing a track by the Bare Naked Ladies, and they are not claiming that it is from the CD. In fact these tracks were released before the CD was.

@ some point even freedom of speech needs limits.
