Listen, I can't get involved. I've got work to do. It's not that I like the Empire; I hate it. But there's nothing I can do about it right now... It's all such a long way from here.
Yes, I agree, and it always should be the individuals choice. The MPAA and RIAA are simply trying to scare people into believing that choosing not to spend money is illegal.
Generating magnetic fields around the climber could shield the habitat module from the radiation as it climbs through space. But it may be difficult to beam enough power to the climber to generate such a shield.
If only there was some way we could run a really long cable up to the the climber...
So Who hosts perverted-justice.com? I have no interest in protecting sex-offenders, the law will deal with them. But I do hate bullies and people who try to control what people say and think.
Play them at their own game, and hope that some day, the truth will out.
"As part of efforts to restructure the company and focus on our core business, we had to make some cuts and the company has not had time to readjust its production."
So making plastics blocks is not your code business?
Obviously the correct way to deal with those who have a different point of view is to call them terrorists and then forcibly eject them from the planet.
I imagine a world where hateful messages were thrown at us from every direction through advertising would be quite different from the world I live in now. I also admit that perhaps I myself see the world through rose-tinted glasses.
My hope is simply that by not censoring things we disagree with we can as a society have a discussion about them. Men have always discriminated against one- another, be that becuase of religious beliefs, political beliefs, or financial status. Discrimiating against somebody because of the color of their skin is just as rediculous.
Let the racists have their say, so the world can turn around and say... "Right, we've heard what you got to say, and you're full of shit because..."
I really don't think censoring them will help anything. How many banned films have you seen? Banned books you've read? How many of them did you watch/read to see why they were banned.
If you censor something, you give it weight. IMHO Rascism and Racists don't deserve that level of credibility.
I take offence that. You're implying that the world is full of mealy-mouthed, small minded people with nothing better to do that to tell people what they can and can't say, so that they don't have to hear somethign they don't like.

Censorship is definitely worse than racism or hate. You can't pretend a problem is not there just by sweeping it under the carpet.
If you take away the racists right to free speech, does he become less a racist. We need to have dialog around these subjects. Censorship doesn't help any body except those with rose tinted glasses.
I sent money to someone I didn't even really meet on the internet. I bought Secret of Mana for the SNES on Ebay. Should he then post my personal information? What if, instead of SoM, I bought a quadruple-headed dildo, complete with ground effects, on Ebay? Is it okay then?
Okay? Jeez! Guy it would the best money you've ever spent!

I think you've hit the nail on the head. I agree whole-heartedly with everything you've said. Have you ever considered open-sourcing yourself? (http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/11/06/2 144219)

The rebel alliance will almost certainly be crushed without re-inforcements

In which case I apologise whole heartedly and beg your forgiveness. Does anybody know where the toilet is?
That would be Irony. We're well know for it in the UK, but sadly not a lot of it makes it across the pond

I not sure what's scarier. That someone submitted this story, or that slashdot posted it
You joke, but surely it's just a matter of time.

If you don't want to read Racist blogs, don't google for them.
The best form of censorship is self-censorship.
I read the post title as "Lesbian Conference Video DVDs on Sale".
How disappointing
"A non-believer! Persecute! Kill the heretic!"
While I'm on the subject... Christians, Catholics believe in one god, as do Muslims. If there's one god, where's the problem?
Can't kill them.
Last I had heard though, she was missing, and the evidence was only circumstantial. Have they found a body?
The hardware to run Duke Nukem Forever
It's true. Korean women are hot.
That's not a bug, it's a feature!
Damn right, and besides Bush is too powerful now for it to work.
Okay? Jeez! Guy it would the best money you've ever spent!
