Oh, they'll probably wait to see if it actually passes in court. If it does, they can sue these filmmakers for profiting off the Batman name. Because they probably weren't before.
Tough on crime has basically always meant unfair on crime, which is against the constitution. The cruel part of 'cruel and unusual punishment' still applies even if it no longer becomes unusual.
Though your point makes sense, I'm fairly sure Slashdot is banned in China. It will take a little longer for them to catch this as people resubmit the information elsewhere.
Yes, but if we give up the right to execute children they'll all become terrorists and try to kill all the adults! Won't someone think of the children?
Well, the summary IS the article. Seriously. Just in more words. It doesn't make the point that we need art as much as academics. It's just against math. What did math do, run over his dog and crash his car?
Now you can cook chicken with a Tesla Coil! The possibilities are end... well, you're still only cooking things with a tesla coil. Maybe you'll become a master at it and keep the chicken from being horribly burned in the wrong places, or not cooked at all in others. You could be the first man to be arrested for aggressive chicken handling!
Not even slightly surprised this is coming from Australia. You guys really need to do something about reworking that government so the party that doesn't win anything also doesn't end up in power.
"More than 1,000 people" isn't enough people to be able to extrapolate this kind of issue out. Of course, people in Washington are gonna push this article to try and get the stupid thing made, because if you don't read the article it seems to back them up. No one should have the power to shut the internet off, because we all know that there'd be a high level of invasiveness for the government to do this. However, the most likely option Washington would take if this unpossibility happened would probably be they went to ISPs and had killswitches installed there. Regardless, I'm not so paranoid or short sighted to be afraid of the Chinese taking over my home PC to launch a missile, because that's an idiotic line of thinking. Why on earth do we need this thing, anyways? Say the worst case scenario happens and the Chinese decide to launch a cyber attack on us, and everyone's computers go down. Then what? Seriously, besides a day of no productivity (like Christmas! yay!) what's the issue once we get everything running again? Are we worried that the Chinese will find out the specific website of browser porn that some average guy looks at? The kill switch is another distractionary measure, because it's idiotic. We don't need it, as it does nothing. We don't need to talk about making one, because people aren't actually always that stupid. This again, comes down to people educating themselves on the issue.
Actually in PUFFERY (not puffing) I don't think you can make the claim "your messages will get there before you send them". Advertising is all bullshit, but it has to be specifically unprovable bullshit, because I can prove your messages will never get there before you send them.
The fact that people have patented even more outrageously stupid shit. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if they got the patent. Remember that USPTO is no longer taxpayer funded and hasn't been since '93, so their livelihood comes from people filing patents.
You don't have to agree with what the soldiers do, or their orders, or their mission. But all anyone is asking is for all you trolls to understand that most people who join the military did not do it so they could shoot people without a penalty. Stop overgeneralizing and painting the soldier as the bad guy. A soldier that's here at home isn't shooting anyone. Lay the blame where it belongs, at the feet of the businessmen who claim to have America's interests at heart. Ignore the small issue, ignore party lines, they don't matter. Getting this country moving again is what matters, and neither side seems to have an interest in that. Otherwise we wouldn't waste time yelling about gay marriage and terrorism and health care. Read the issues and learn what they mean. It's the least you could do. The uneducated have no right to complain.
They always complain about "hurting the little guy" for whatever reason, but they hate the little guy, whether it's a new artist or a smaller publishing company. I just didn't know they had always been that way. I guess their dogma won't change until they go the way of newspapers.
Hey man, it's cool. If the rapture DOES happen, the Christians are stuck here with us. No where in the Bible does it say they get a free ticket out of the apocalypse. In fact, I dare to say that most of them think they get a "get out of hell on earth free card" because of the Simpsons episode.
Slashdot Mirror
Slashdot is not, but Anonymous Coward is.

I am honestly wondering what kind of seeds we got from Antarctica.
It will be Stuff That Matters when she's sent to Juvenile Detention before she's old enough to question her parents, or the legal system.

Mainstream isn't, unless you mean nerd mainstream.

Or they'll sue me.
Exactly. It's still ridiculous even if they go to ISPs.

You didn't have to change that many words, did you? That speech works for everything!
WP:OR should be renamed to WOPR to keep with the trend.
It's simply capitalism over artistic endeavor and appreciation. After all, if people enjoy your art for free, you won't have gained any money.
The only thing I feel for trash compactors is the need for Threepio to shut it down.
It's weird to have sex with food.

Yes, there may be less competition on the PS3. But is there a market?
