    I have no intention of interpreting the statute, when United States Code says "United States means a Federal corporation."

    If I am wrong, then how can "United States" own land in the United States of America? How can State of California own most of California? How can State of Oregon be a landlord over Oregon? United States is a corporation, and everyone thinks its a classification. They are all corporations; only people can own land, corporations aren't what walks on foot. United States has a President, it can hold monetary instruments, invest, profit, it can go bankrupt: United States is a corporation from Washington District of Columbia; even so, any code bears witness of incorporation whereas that United States is not a party to the Constitution of the United States but exists as a legal fiction in equity. Searching through Constitution Society, it appears that it is separate from the States united.

    You surmise all corporations must suffix their name with "Corporation", such as Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or it's not a corporation? That isn't a regulation to names, but a trade-mark.

    Then you go about drawing where none is drawn for jurisdiction. If you try to reference code to law, it will not match; code only needs to be compliant with law, it is encryption so as to not tresspass on another law that it means to be compliant with. In codes, did you not know that quoted material is acknowledging foreign matter and is not a patent to subjection? You've quoted nothing, but have only your codetalk to construe and re-define somthing that is already self-explanatory in the code. And to that code, which I have no patent, I quote "United States means a Federal corporation" and that is all I have to say about that. "United States" has no jurisdiction, only investors. In United States Code, it acnkowledges a feud between the United States and the United States of America; is somthing smelling fishy yet? When this country had gone through its disorders in uncertain times, how do you expect it to re-organize?

    You shouldn't suggest what you will never quote. Federal Rules of Evidence is a code sold by the United States Congress. If you need to use it, then that means you are not a party to the Constitution. Rules from a foreign feud in Columbia are a foreign suggestion to neighboring states, but evidence is just plain and peaceful common sense.

    I showed the content of USCODE, and am being slandered by you.

    How's that tinfoil hat fitting? First, just because you see the word "corporation" used in a sentence doesn't mean that somehow it's a business being run by investors just like whatever private-sector company you love to hate.


    You didn't read. "United States" is being used as a noun, and is completely different from plural the United States. Is that I have greater comprehension that you lie that I am wearing a tinfoil hat? The USCODE authors have yet to acknowledge any error.

    Then you start trying to define words other than their use in the Law of Nations. Then you try to redefine "federal" to somthing else. Use the etymology. When if I write "apple", it doesn't mean a computer; "Apple" is the construment for a computer that you are looking for.


    The sections of code you're reading don't convey anything at all like what you're saying they do, and you of course know that. What you're trying to do is increase the "evil" quotient associated with the word "corporation" just because it's fashionable to do so, and because when that works, you can then tie that word to people you don't like (politically, for example), and spare yourself the trouble of having to actually explain rationally what you don't like. It's like using the word "witch" 400 years ago - a catch-all instant condemnation (but only for other people already caught up thinking that way).


    Stop insulting for curses not written. I am not conveying anything than what is not already said and done; I'm only pointing that there is admiralty, equity, and law; If you can't comprehend the nature of a dispute, then you wouldn't know. A corporation is for limiting liability; if you think that is evil, then don't create one. I didn't say I hated corporations. If every word I've written is hate to you, then I hope not to offend. Think of me as an entomolgist; I just classify based on behavior; "United States" is a corporation, the United States approaches in admiralty, the United States of America is de jure. I didn't write anything with one element of hate.

    I think it is becoming fashionable to the day for people to accuse eachother of hating corporations. I'm not the conspiracy theorist that you want me to be.

    "United States" means a Federal corporation. United States is not the United States. United States is a noun, while the United States is plural.

    And when I quoted the requirements for instrumentatlities; oaths, affirmations, declarations, affidavits; tranceiver utilities:

    (1) If executed without the United States [...] "I declare (or certify, verify, or state) under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America...

    (2) If executed within the United States [...] "I declare (or certify, verify, or state) under penalty of perjury...


    What I intend to show is that if you are not in the United States, then you are in the United States of America. That USCODE is patent to United States, and it is only acknowledging that fact relative to the code; first citing United States requirements explicitly, then falling-through to acknowledge that it is chartered from the United States of America. Doesn't that seem strange to you? It's like there is a boat called the "United States" floating on the High Seas known as the United States of America; if you jump citizenship, then you're in the United States of America and all its sharks (the people). This explains all the admiralty flag law. I've found that the United States is foreign, not allowed anywhere near the United States of America, and is host to a corporation "United States" from within the Washington District of Columbia. Is Hawaii part and parcel to America?

    To give some force that one United States and another United State of America are in admiralty, consider these two public notices...1, and 2. I'm just saying, it looks like fishy fishing. I didn't volunteer to be an employee or citizen of either the United States or the United States of America; I'm just born on soil at California; peace, love, groovy (not grovily).

How can the people choose a government above them that doesn't correspond to reality? Simply because all government today is implemented in corporate form. I've looked across the Constitution for China, and it is verry sadenning to see it explicitly dedicate powers to various entities that perhaps could not be immediatly changed but by revolution, and worse is it bares false witness of itself by saying China is a "Socialist Republic" every other sentence.

    United States, however, is separate from the United States of America because according to Title 28 Section 3002 15a, "United States" is a Federal corporation. And thus the struggle in America is just this; you have federal government and then you have a federal corporation called "United States" in that federal government.

Wasn't a recent Slashdot article about IT employees being disliked when they have tattoos (skins/kernel patches) and multiple bodily peircings (kernel holes/virus infection sights/security gaps)? People want software that appeals to their eyes, not the truth of the matter. Most people creating themes for a window manager are not capable of defending themselves in such a intellectual battle.

How did you know I was posting through Windows98+Firefox because this combination is faster than WindowsXP+Firefox on this energy-efficient architecture.

    I've been following Apple for years (used to be key to my career), and I don't remember such a thing.

    I do, however remember that as part of an out-of-court settlement, they bought $160 million worth of non-voting stock shares (which they later sold at quite a healthy profit). To this day it's hard to find exact info on which case that settled, the two most likely are for snaking QuickTime code for use in WiMP and for snaking NeXT kernel code for use in WinNT (and by the time NeXT's lawsuit was settled, Apple owned them, hence Apple getting the settlement).

    Do you actually think a overly successful corporation could be so desperate and lacking "innovative ideas" that it would sneak a competitor's software into its own without asking "When and who gave us this brilliant thing"? Look at these companies! They have a base of lawyers payed more than their actual software programmers!

Seriously, if that is all the division between an OS can be, I welcome free software allowing people to move to any architecture they see capable to their needs.

    Many people do not realize that Apple is actually a worse corporate proprietor than Microsoft. Considering all these years that Microsoft has been unable to migrate x86 hardware design away from its legacy XT closet, Apple is jumping into the world with a completely new and recent re-implementation with Intel -- perhaps a feat Microsoft couldn't attempt without someone waving monopoly flames. Remember when Microsoft donated USD 160 million to Apple? Was that to keep the smallest competitor out of bankrupty and far from the predatory grips of anti-monopoly laws?

    The trend to migrate from the legacy XT PC design has been as recent as when Intel started marketing the beleagured "Plug 'N' Play" API. 3DLabs, no more than three years ago when disclosing its VP graphics chipset to compete with nVidia's GeForce vertex and pixel technology we see today, exclaimed to be migrating away from the VGA BIOS compatibility; none else would be compatible to post in VGA text modes!

    He stole nothing, he physically broke into nothing, he has seen nothing, he has been caught holding nothing. When crappy everyday news press start labeling everyone a "hacker" I think this world is run by Joseph Goerbles. It takes alot of relative merit to hold a label of any kind. For one, IP addresses belong to the ISP, not the subscriber; the software properly authenticated and was allowed access. I do it all the time at Slashdot: sometimes I auth as Anonymous Coward with the password "frommyparentsbasementIstabtheetaco"; Someone changes it to somthing else everytime it is posted though. Information crimes If it needs to be a secret, don't hold the secrets on a network-accessible computer or you're asking for someone with authentication to publicize the material. When I speak of "proper authentication", I speak on the train of thought that probability can be just as valid as authentication; guess a number and use it. I'm just using plain English, no in-fancy federal-code talk trying to conceal common-sense law in pounds upon pounds of codified indirect procedure used to anyone's bereft. You'ld think people just love eachother for accessing their server, and you're assumed to be not hostile until proven hostile. George Noory's information COASTTOCOASTAM.COM has the same crap, and I don't see anyone making commercial gain other than plastering stupid secret shit on baseball caps and shirts. Oh, that must be sooo detrimental to take secret information and make a fat cult of pudgy geeks that just gossip about trinagles in the sky. I know Slashdot makes many federal-like assumptions to its viewers; thinking we read hardware advertisements and the advertisements within the topic of those advertisements. The day those appointed to serve as "Government" can conceal information is the day the people are ussurped by lies. Look at how many spy and nuclear secret threats were feared by those supposes people appointed as "Government", and its they that have mis-used the technology the most!

    Interesting. An advertisment, disguised as an Apple article, disguised as a Linux topic. Interesting.
    ... and a dupe on top of that.

    We discussed this earlier this week when Dvorak trie d to piss on everyone's parade with the same opinion.

    It was BS then. Its BS now. All Apple on x86 does is give street cred to the idea of switching away from the Bitch from Redmond. Eveeryone else benefits at that point.

    In other news - the sun shines, the earth rotetes, life goes on.


    There! Now I've mastered the blockquoted blockquote and duped a most-likely duped post complaining of a duplication of an already duped article disguised to advertise duplicating of Apple OSX on IBM duped PeeSees. Those Intel people are just a bunch of clones.

    I totally agree with this statement, why not make one graphics layer for all applications like Mac OS X, instead of GTK, GTK2, QT, etc, etc.


    Say, that's a great idea! I hope you borrow the best features from each one, mangle it together, and call it GQTK2++. Sure, you're bound to be flamed to support all those pesky architectures, resulting in various code-branching, then after two years all your once-jedi buddies would break-away because they think you've lost your edge, but then it'll all implode when GTK and Mac OSX and whatever other mimicry assimilated inyou your project will be uber-created in your competitors biggest product. Then someone with the same spirit you once had those five years earlier will come along and complain abouth the uber-creator's software, and he'll create his own and open it to all the geeks of Poor kingdom under the title "GuhnooberOeSS-eXP++--." I'm behind you, man! So far behind that you can't see me yet, but I'm behind you! It'll be free, as in beer, right?
