  1. lawsuits on Monday Releases Cause Crashes · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    hmm how long before the moron who wrote this AND sf.net get sued. I more ocncerend about Sf.net since this is a DRM circumvention program that doesnt really have any other use. Intersting is the fact ath sf crew review software projects before apporving them, so it means they a are not just hosting this, but a party to it. Sucks for sf.net more than anything else wonder if it will impact OSDN and ./ and freshmeat. I dont see the RIIA and Apple letting this one slide by.

  2. Re:for those who have a karma..(Way Offtopic) on Linux for iPod Matures · · Score: 1

    Well, it seems the BBC is going on the offensive. Apparently Bush is the source of our problems in Nepal. Certainly news to me. I like how there is ZERO mention of the things that the Maoists do. The only time it is mentioned it is when quoting the US ambassador. On the other hand, apparently, the army lines up civilians and kills them. This is certainly sensational stuff certainly far from impartial. Also note the commies have been killing people since 1996..the army just got involved 2 years ago.

    believe what you want about AI or the BBC. Personal opinions dont really alter facts. I think that if your home was raided, your family killed and village burned, you too would see my point of view.

    No links since the western media (barring the BBC, but they are very biased) ignores it. This is what it is about.
    as for AI, they openly support these thugs and regualrly hold rallies in the capital.

  8. if you dont like itunes on New Tool Cracks Apple's FairPlay DRM · · Score: 2, Interesting

    DONT USE IT! there are p2p apps for people like you .seriously, this is just spoiling it for the rest of us that like itunes and dont have issues with it. No one is forcing you to use itunes. if you are going to pirate music use Kazaa or something like that.
    I see no benefit form this other than to hurt itunes. If you dont like the licence, boycott it dont break it for everyone else. This is akin to idiots who dislike starbucks and go around destroying things since, if they dont like it, no one else shoudl be able to use it.
    I like itunes, i have no problems with it, dont mess it up for me. just leave it alone if you dont liek the terms. Hey if enough people dislike it, maybe they will change things (though enough people like it that you are in the minority)
    The jerk that wrote this is a childish intolerant moron.

    Personal insults over minor typos are always a great way to improve a debate. Quite classy.
    Simply attackig communists doesnt imply much. Maoists and Marxists hate each other neither is less communist than the other. Just like Nazis an Communists hate each other. The hallmark of leftists is the desire for power, absolute power. I think you should live under a leftist gov or experience the rampage of Maoists before you tell me anything about leftists. Look at my sig. I have seen villages burned and people slaughtered all in the name of a "people's war". This war is havliy backed today by international leftist groups like AI and has been very effective. Before AI stepped in the death toll was about 2000 (this was in 6 years of fighting in 2001) since then with more money and modern weapons, they have out gunned the democratic governmnet and the civillian deathtoll refects that.
    You can tell me about the left when they have come to YOUR home, killed YOUR family and burned YOUR village down.

    dude, you need to rad upo a bit more . the terms left and right come from the french paliamanet after one of the revolutikons. Left side being the revolutonaries and right side being the former monarchists.
    I equate left with revolutionary groups that pretend to be for the people to shore up support then commit massive crimes when in power. This is the trend in communist and socialist governments. Thus the actions of the Nazis are a typical leftist gov. They have a name that is socialist and for workers and then they come to power.. compare that to communist govs all over the world. Compare the rethoric of communist groups before the revolution to those of other leftist groups right now and they all sound really similar (ie lofty promosies ).
