Sisko was a fucking hack. It was every other character on DS9 that made it what it was. Sisko was just there for the ride, being... I don't know, fucking weird all the time. Took him the entire first season just to get over the "I've only ever been an extra on shitty 80's shows" bad acting. He's basically just portraying a brain damaged and unnecessarily emotional black person for 7 seasons.
Piracy is easy because you go to a website, click a magnet link and then you watch the movie after it is done cooking.
Netflix is easy because you go to a website, click a video link and then you watch the movie after it is done buffering.
Spotify is easy because...
DVD or BluRay? I have two options; one is go outside and buy it from a store that actually sells the movie I want, which won't happen, because the movies I want are fresh releases, so stores in my area just won't have them until like... 3 months from now, or alternatively I could order them from Amazon. That's cool. I just have to pay the extra shipping tax and wait 3 days for the package. Which is exactly what I want, when I want to watch the movie right now.
It is the same rhetoric we've been using the last 20 years: IF YOU WANT TO STOP PIRACY, STOP FORCING US TO BE PIRATES. YOU ARE GIVING US NO ALTERNATIVES THAN TO STEAL YOUR STUPID SHIT, DUMBASSES.
And then we turn to the stories of people who were prosecuted religiously by the scientific community for presenting evidence of a theory being wrong. It's not uncommon for scientific evidence to go into the "Book Of Theories From Mentally Challenged People", where they're forgotten until 50 or 100 years later someone revisits the evidence and proves it was correct all along.
If you're running from the police, but stop when they tell you to stop, you will get shot.
If you're resisting the police, but stop when they tell you to stop, you will get shot.
If you're using common sense against the police, but stop when they tell you to stop, you will get shot.
The police in America doesn't exist to protect and serve the people, it's to protect the government against the people. It is literally an HR department with tasers and guns.
Do you have access to internal MS Research software? Cool, bro. Can you hook me up with some access too? Because you must've used the internal MS Research software to do your anecdotal testing some months ago, since you've got an opinion on how good it is at doing its job.
Cool kids drink energy drinks, and they drink alcohol and they do party drugs. So conversely drinking energy drinks and alcohol and doing drugs makes you one of the cool kids, right? Only you'll never be one of the cool kids, because frankly you're just an imitating loser, only now you're also an addict, and a point in a statistic which has no basis in reality, and which is created by people who never experienced being one of the cool kids, or one of the addicts. Or possible was one of the addicts at one point, but got better and had their opinion of the cool kids turn sour. So now they're after the least prickly of the three - can't chase down the drugs,
that doesn't work, and can't chase down the alcohol, that doesn't work either - DEATH TO ENERGY DRINKS!
There’s no point in acting surprised about it. All the planning charts and demolition orders have been on display at your local planning department in Alpha Centauri for 50 of your Earth years, so you’ve had plenty of time to lodge any formal complaint and it’s far too late to start making a fuss about it now What do you mean you’ve never been to Alpha Centauri? Oh, for heaven’s sake, mankind, it’s only four light years away, you know. I’m sorry, but if you can’t be bothered to take an interest in local affairs, that’s your own lookout. Energize the demolition beams.
I'm not entirely sure how this quote applies to the situation described in the article, but if we make the effort I'm sure we can find a way.
You're the only ones to blame for your own misfortunes. In the 60's and 70's, Americans were smart. Even the black community was smart, well dressed and upstanding. In the 80's and 90's, American got stupid. Now? Who the fuck knows what's going on over there any more. If the police aren't murdering people left and right, the politicians are trying to break the country down from both within and without. Since you're all living in a pile of shit, it's no wonder you get sick in mind and body, and that evil spiral is only going to continue until the system breaks down, and a new system can be made to replace it.
We just have to figure out how our unconscious mind is able to calculate intuitive decisions based on previous experience and knowledge, and connect seemingly unrelated experiences to form new original thoughts, and then emulate it all in a computer program. How hard can it be?
Why is it every time the human civilization stands on the brink of change, people get scared saying it's the end of the world? Sure we have no idea what we're changing into, we have no idea what our kids are changing into, but that's evolution bitches. That's how it fucking works. The environment changes, and we change with it. If we stagnate, we die for sure. The only way to survive is to continously mutate the species so that it may adapt. If technology is the answer to all our problems, we will know in a hundred years. If it's not, then we'll also know in a hundred years. Why is it such a big deal to worry about it now? Why spend all your time and energy worrying about things that aren't real?
Is CNET is a tabloid that has no editorial overview at all, and their writers can just post whatever stories they want? I'm just asking. I don't go there.

This William Wallace guy. I knew he was just a stickler for the man. Freedom my ass. Boo, I say. Boo!
Hello, random stranger on the internet. Here is a stack of untraceable currency worth $3 million. Please don't run away with them.

It's time to make some JAMBALAYA HUEH HUEH!
It's the rant that counts. Go stuff your logic somewhere the sun doesn't shine.
Pirates are okay, it's the middlemen you can't trust.
Do you not understand that the pictures were taken from that law firm and used on a fake website?

Maybe the first time, but not the $250,000 worth of consecutive times. By then it's intentional.
Around here they're doing iPads, not laptops. The yearly repair budget alone is killing most of the schools.

The police aren't supposed to shoot you dead, but they do on occasion murder people anyway.
It would be unfortunate if you had a concealed weapon on you during a police raid, and you had to die because of it.

They'd have to form an official Starfleet first though, no? Unless they already call it Starfleet internally. I don't know. I don't work at NASA.
I imagine just getting it up there would trigger a few alerts.
