    Likely they will have to document their process for the FBI.

    They can divert some power from the Bitcoin mines, leaving just enough for life support.

  2. Prudes = Pervs on UK Gov't Launches Public Consultation On Porn-Site Age Checks (bbc.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    More often than not the most obnoxious prudes are the biggest, most offensive perverts. Authority and punishment make them very horny.

    It's easy to look at the government and blame them for laws like this, but time and time again it's this corrupt lobbying organisation that pretends to be a charity that's behind it all.

    Well yeah, the government is to 'blame' for the laws they pass. The lobbyists aren't at fault, I don't care how corrupt they are, the government is not required to listen to them. They can turn their back and tell them to piss off.

    Actually I just stumbled in here wondering on what planet 190 degrees centigrade is room temperature.

    I'm only asking where you got 4.5%, not 100%

    Movies, war, movies about war, they all sell very well. We have Zero Dark Thirty, American sniper, 13 hours... Business is business. The idea is to keep the game running and the money flowing. Looks like Russia is giving a little push to Iran. I wouldn't worry about it. They just don't have the capital to keep it up for very long, not while the we and the Saudis keep dumping oil to depress their petro-dollars.

  8. Re:Less Obama on Iranian App Helps Users Avoid Morality Police (reuters.com) · · Score: 1

    Why don't you try comparing Russia's condition and market share to what it was eight years ago? You just might find we are winning the war. And since their petro-dollars are worth shit, the threat is further reduced. The latest news is our new buildup in Eastern Europe. Now's the time, right? So, really, what is your complaint? Let the proxies and mercenaries fight the wars for us, more money, less American blood. In the Game of Empires our position has never been better, and is getting better still.

    And where did you get that 4.5% nonsense? That might cover the toilet paper, if that.

    Khomeni was an asset. The U.S. knew the Shah was sick and going to die, and they didn't want those 'liberals' to get all chummy with the Soviets. They took him (Khomeni) out of his hibernation pod in, where was that, France, right? This precluded that threat. Can't argue with success. In a variation of the same theme the Soviets were driven out of Afghanistan. Rile up the locals and give them a bunch of weapons, and wait... Carter wasn't "fooled" at all. He (the 'team') played a good game, and it worked. Destabilization is serving its purpose to this day. The whole religious angle is a ruse to sell the war. And if you don't believe me, then take a gander at our best buddy Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, etc., all just as fanatical as Iran. More so, Iran hasn't invaded anybody outside their borders in a very long time.

    Eh whatever, the government has full content of the governed and reflects its wishes. The numbers tell all. 95% reelection rate. All the bellyaching is bullshit.

    To tell the truth, I wouldn't change a thing. In fact, I kinda hope you don't. I'm one of the more content people around here.

    If the people want the government to set and enforce the rules, it is their choice. The issue is a local one.

    Pretty obvious, let the people of Austin decide, and if Uber doesn't like the results, screw 'em. Some local guy can start up a similar service.

    Well, that's the rub, isn't it? The TV is not supposed to be a recording device.

    This the first article of the day. The last one was 14 hours previous. Are some articles not showing up? Or did I misunderstand the question?
