But of course, your (typical) reaction is what terrorists are hoping for. If everyone said "no biggie" like the parent poster, we wouldn't have terrorism because no one would be terrorized.
Of course the person who mooches access bears responsiblity, but so does the person who put up an open access point. A better analogy would be to compare it to an unfenced pool that a homeowner puts in his backyard. It's called an "attractive nuisance".
she is more relax so her legs are spread apart, showing her love triangle. Anywow, a guy was walking the beach and sees this girl. He thinks she is advertising (Broadcasting SSID) No signs around this girl that say private (encrypted) or must have permisson to connect. So he connects, la'de'da'la
Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know you were stupid. Why didn't you go all out and bring up Nazies while you were at it?
What, do you also stand in an adult video store and complain that they don't have Disney movies? Don't wander through the Action asile of games at Best Buy and wonder why they are all rated for late teenagers, take the time to look around and you'll find an ocean of "kid safe" games.
Doubt it. Because even as greedy a pig as the director might seem for making well into nine digits and still wanting more, the studios are EVEN GREEDIER PIGS for trying to keep the director's money for themselves.
Exactly. This is what bugs me about people who bitch about how greedy baseball players are whenever a salary dispute comes up, completely ignoring the massive greed of the owners.
But looking back it on, it doesn't seem very different from teenagers who used to etch carvings into their desk or spraypaint the walls.
Nonsense, how could you be more different? One was physical vandalism that costs thousands of dollars to fix, and the other, while a headache for admins, caused no physical damage or data loss and made a nice screen saver. Try comparing apples to apples.
.. that doesn't beleive that heavy-handed government intervention is the solution to every problem?
No, there are a great many people who are paranoid that any attempts at public oversight or regulation are the acts of big, evil guv'ment, and would rather bitch about it than do something constructive (like asking the legislators to do something about spam in general, rather than this well intentioned but boneheaded idea).
Who's to say he hasn't? Moreso, these chicken hawks might be a little more cautious about war if it their own kids stood some danger of dying in it, as opposed to someone else's kids.
O'Connor's dissent was surprisingly terse and (*gasp*) conservative!
Um, no. Conservatives claim to support states rights, at least when it's in their interests (*cough*Florida*cough*2000*cough*). So in desenting she was not being sterotypically conservative.
Next time, please do your homework first. -D
Phone call for Mr. Kettle, Mr. Pot is on the line...
Except there are no liberal justies on the SC. There are conservatives, super-conservatives, and not-conservatives. Not being conservative does not mean you are liberal.
don't forget the early sittings of the Supreme Court have denied women the franchise
Which ones would those be? Women were explicitly allowed to vote after an amendment was passed, but I've never seen any feminist provide an example of where they explicitly were denied the right to vote.
Congradulations, lefties, you've just formally subordinated one of the most basic human rights to the good of big corporations. How do you like them Apples?
Considering there are zero "lefties" on the SC, you can blow that out your ass.
If you're going to be completely irrelevant to any rational discussion, why not go all out? Why don't you whip up an essay on the price of rice in China?
Why should Microsoft, or any other corporation, use its money and waste its time providing patches and other OS updates to people who have illegally obtained the OS?
Because leaving all those machines unpatched hurts their own customers, dumbass. They need to fix their priorities or risk loosing the privledge of getting our money for their products.
Why not spread some of the blame to the hackers, crackers, and script kiddies?
Because there's no control over those hackers, crackers and script kiddies? Duh? However Microsoft does have control over how it does updates to Windows, and trying to deny updates to pirated copies, they hurt their own customers from those vunerable machines that then spread worms/viruses/spam.
Adjusted for population, Iraq civilians have a 911 every couple of weeks.. And since you went there, adjusted for troop levels and advancements in battlefield medicine, infantry duty in Iraq is every bit as tough as infantry duty in Vietnam. Now count the total of American casualties, pushing 2,000, and compare that to the last Gulf War. Then you can stfu about us "kicking ass".

His previous directing credits included The Frighteners, Heavenly Creatures and Bad Taste. And he gets a 3 film mega-budget movie to direct?
Because he had the rights to make LOTR. If Newline wanted LOTR, they had to work with Jackson.
whilst all the liberal judges (yes - some of the liberal judges were appointed in compromise by Republican
Except there are no liberals on the SC. Merely being to the left of a super-conservative such as Rehnquist does not make you "liberal".
The liberals ruled that it fell under federal law and was therefore illegal.
Except there are no liberals on the SC. Merely not being a super-conservative like Rehnquist or Scalia does not make you "liberal".
No problem, now that the Iron Curtain has fallen they can just set up their hospitals next to the local Dominos.
And just what does that do to disprove my point, Mr. Genius? There are millions of conservatives that aren't religious fanataics, either.
Still think it's irrelevant?
Considering nothing like that is ever going to happen - yeah, still irrelevant. Next?

Why haven't you?
Who's to say he hasn't? Moreso, these chicken hawks might be a little more cautious about war if it their own kids stood some danger of dying in it, as opposed to someone else's kids.
Not being super-conservative does not make you liberal. There isn't a single liberal justice on the SC.

None of that justifies having the photographer own the copyright. Hiring an extremly skilled photographer should mean a higher bill, nothing more.
Oh, just put in a link to a population counter. :)
