    Yeah, brute force is something the government is very good at.

    Google is pretty fickle with its applications. We'll never know how long gmail will remain online, until they decide to shut it down.

    Oh, like the other replies said, 'privacy'... You will have none if it is online in any form.

    Look - I know many of you *philosophically* justify copyright as something beyond a government granted privilege. Fine. Whatever.

    Eh, I guess I'll leave it at that. There's just no arguing with fanaticism.

  7. Re:The only ones who win are the lawyers. on Rackspace Goes On Rampage Against Patent Trolls · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Fines and jail time won't work. Asset forfeiture on the other hand could put a dent in this business. Just apply the RICO statutes. After all, it is racketeering.

    CHINA AIRLINES (worst record GOING)

    Nope. That honor would go to Air France, with almost as many wrecks as American and United combined.

    And if you want to bitch about maintenance, the repair work that caused Japan Airlines 123 to crash was performed at the Boeing factory in Washington. But all that shit happened a long time ago. The only places wrecking airplanes regularly these days are in Africa, Russia, Brazil, Pakistan, India, and a few other backwater countries.

  9. Re:China, Syria, Iran... on The Activists Who Bring Security To the Oppressed · · Score: 1

    Both Chile and Iran had people that accepted the US bribes and promises to support US policy.

    Yes, when you get an offer you can't refuse, that's usually how it goes.

  15. Re:Feinstein is an idiot. on Senator Feinstein: We Need Video Game Control · · Score: 1

    Do you really think that anti-liberalism promotes freedom?

    Well, that's quite a stretch.. There is not a single liberal in either house of congress or the oval office, so the word (outside FOX's definition) hardly applies, so I'll repeat to you from my previous post that any congressperson (senate and house) who says they are liberal is being untruthful... disgraceful, yes, but not necessarily to the ideals of liberalism since they aren't liberals and shouldn't be expected to hold up those ideals.

    UEFI isn't causing bricking any more than any BIOS chip in the past has.

    No?.. Okay...

    You may as well argue against memory controllers being integrated into CPUs or any northbridge/southbrdge chip being soldered onto a motherboard.

    Not really. I've never heard of software being able to brick anything through them..

    ...requires the willing participation of the client governments.

    Yeah right, tell that to the Chileans and Iranians, and take your pick of any Central American country. If they don't participate 'willingly', well, let's just say the US makes them an 'offer they can't refuse'.

    Technically yes, but we have allowed it to deteriorate into a corporate aristocracy, and completely abdicated our legal authority to it.

  22. Re:Feinstein is an idiot. on Senator Feinstein: We Need Video Game Control · · Score: 1

    I don't understand why anyone would vote for her.

    Because, obviously she brings back something to those that do, even if it's just an illusion. If she says she's a liberal, in the classical sense, then she is a liar. The real disgrace is that people still believe her and waste their votes and thus steal our freedoms. To me, it says a lot about them, even more than the good senator herself, and it's a reflection of the tyranny of the majority.
