Every democracy has a congress or parliament or council of corrupt bastards, that's just the natural way of things... but the US congress blows the most BIPS - billions of dollars per second.
I was walking down the street today (in Australia) and marvelling at how comfortable and safe life is compared to how bad it could be if we didn't have a legitimate government and an enlightened citezenry. So notably not nasty, brutish and short like in Iraq or Somalia.
Err.. anyway back on topic. Die, SCO, die! Death by lawyer is too good for them. I would like to beat Darl to death with a cricket bat, starting at the feet and working my way up.
The US ruling classes have discovered an amazing innovation in tyranny: they can slowly and steadily keep turning the screws, and so long as the exploited classes are allowed to bitch and moan about it, they will believe themselves to be free and happy and never get beyond just bitching and moaning.
The whole reason you're free to speak out against your government and corporations it that your whining doesn't matter to anyone but you.
When the Chinese rulers eventually cotton on, the yanks will have one less thing to be smug about.
Ah. Seems reasonable then. The tasering part is pretty cool... over here security guards just put you in a headlock and walk you out. When will people learn that the existence of protective laws is not a good enough reason to be rude to bigger, tougher and better armed people?
By the way, I bet if the taseree had been a middle-class white guy we'd never hear about it.
I know the University of Sydney, where I studied, usually has tons of people on campus and at the library who are not students or staff of the uni. After all it's got a huge library that is useful to more than just students. Sounds like it's a bit harder to get into a decent library over in the land of the free. Why?
Any non-Jew on that land over there that we want to steal. This includes women and children. After all, the children will grow up into terrorists, and the women will give birth to future terrorists, so might as well get 'em early. Double points for a pregnant woman.
One per virtual desktop. I've mapped a single keystroke to switch desktops left or right... it's faster than alt-tabbing because you have a spatial map in your head of where the windows are, and it's certainly much faster than fiddling with the mouse. Plus using the whole screen for each window means less scrolling, which is faster again. I never really got into the whole mouse thing, though it's useful for some stuff I suppose.
There are correlations between football teams winning the final and more babies being concieved in the winner's hometown right after the victory. I suspect men get a testosterone boost when their team does well.
Now look at how Team America's adventures have gone in the last few years... bitch-slapped by Osama, humiliated in Iraq, lost all their fair-weather friends.... is it any wonder their eyes are lowered and their tails are between their legs?

But... Samba is created by an Australian team. DMCA won't reach them.
That might have been true before the recent "free trade" agreement.
They're numbers we assign to years, a measure of time. For more info on this little-known phenomenom see Wikipedia's Year entry.

How are you going to get a space shuttle into a library?
Or anywhere else.
Hmm.. just counted the edges on a d12. Maybe there are 30 after all.
Err... the edges are shared, so there are less than 30. I'm trying to figure out the exact number but my maths is too stale.
Pay peanuts, get monkeys.
And the current president... a dim bulb!
Some of us love onions and ketchup :)
There is no evidence, whatsoever, that any known vaccine can cause autism. The claim is pure FUD.

It's no secret that the one demographic you can count on to be child molesters is catholic priests.
Atheists also tend to be exteremely under-represented in prison... bleevers are bigger criminals than us. See these statistics.

Try working the graveyard shift then being woken up by these bastards. Religion has nothing to do with it.
Ah yes. The argument that you ought to be punished for what somebody else did. Er... maybe did. Sounds pretty fair to me.
Anyone remember the CueCat?
You can't give geeks a free gift then cry when they use it for something other than you intended. That business model has been proven unworkable.
Umm. You own three dogs of a species which has been completely wiped out? Are they starting to smell a bit?
1: email, 2: terminal (tabbed), 3: browser (tabbed), 4: misc crap.

See subject.
I *really* hate it when these idiots claim what they're doing is science:
"Webvastu, a fusion of two sciences Vastu Shasta and Internet (websites)."
"Go hang a salami, I'm a lasagna hog".
Gold!
