  2. Re:Minnesota, eh. on Minnesota Supreme Court Rejects DUI Challenges Based On Buggy Software · · Score: 1

    It's pretty obvious to me that this was based on loss of revenue for a state that has the highest number of sex offenders in indefinite "treatment". It costs several times the amount to than prison. Add that cost to the new stadium. Several thousand cases will equal at least a few million dollars flowing into the economy.

    One of my favorite parts of Johnny Dangerously is that news article.

    Isn't it customary to get customer approval on a project when the budget goes up 10x? I usually don't leave a blank check at the mechanic's shop...

    If there's no national security secrets in the photos

    You mean like the fact that the release of those pictures is almost certainly going to incite violence against the US and its citizens? Kind of the definition of 'risk to national security' don'tcha think?

    I don't know how the pictures could insight people more than every show on TV mocking his life and death of various skits and scenarios.

    "no consequences for violence"

    Not in any game I've ever played. You take a level 1 trainee mage up against a "boss" dragon, you get turned into ashes. Not fun at all.

    I think you're missing the point - there's no consequence for violence that you commit in games. Take COD, you shoot dozens if not hundreds of human beings in that game and get rewarded for it.

    I'm up to 18000+ . I need a new hobby...

    We should start by examining worst offending influences. Its possible that violent video games can lead to violence, but misreading religious texts can lead to genocide.

    There. I fixed that for you. Now back to topic.
