  1. Global Warming freaks are crazy on What's the Carbon Footprint of Bicycling? · · Score: 1

    And this is why the global warming freaks are crazy. Ultimately taxing carbon is like taxing breathing. Everytime you breathe you expel carbon. Everytime you piss or shit you expel carbon. Everytime you eat food you're freeing sequestered carbon. Anytime you are LIVING your life you are participating in this cycle and you're not algea or plants, you do the other part of it.

    The most ridiculous thing in the world is to think that it's A.O.K. to limit and tax and blame people for living their lives.

    'Walking is not zero emission because we need food energy to move ourselves from place to place'

    Seriously, what the fuck? Why don't you tell people to just go off themselves. Stop eating, stop walking, stop breathing. Just off yourselves. Is that what you're really getting at? If someone comes out with transportation that has a lower "carbon footprint" than walking, let's say growing living bamboo into a vehicle that sequesters carbon as you ride, are you going to try to guilt people out of walking too? Then you have to eat less because you didn't expend all that waste energy walking and we can ration everyone's food too right?

    Well, before someone posts: "yeah man you should off yourself", I'll tell you this, if it comes to that I'd much rather kill YOU.

    But until then, let us live our lives without this fucking preachy-ness.

    No, they really don't. Can we please go back to when professional artists made the graphics and let the mouthwhores go back to reading their teleprompter rather than faffing around with a big screen.

    "We have proof" is very well accepted to mean that the person is IN POSSESSION of such evidence AND prepared to show it.

    Perhaps there should be changes to the law, to make small claim's court responsible for minor copyright infractions by users.

  5. Welcome to the libertarian viewpoint. on SETI Finds Funds For the Allen Telescope Array (For Now) · · Score: 3, Insightful
    Welcome to the libertarian viewpoint. We do away with income tax and you get to spend your money on things you care about. Put it to use where it's most efficient.

    Fund a telescope array, feed the needy, keep non-profit hospitals open, invest in the local electric car startups, go part time at work and volunteer at the local EFF. I'm willing to bet you can spend your money better than the government can. Crowdsourcing could be the way of the future of the government would just get off your backs.

    No more bridges to nowhere and tax refunds for G.E.
    No more occupations, murder and wars.

    You're quite a bit less likely to have a burglary in the US than you are in Australia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, New Zealand, the UK, Poland, or Canada.

    That's probably because compared to those other countries you're more likely to get shot in the face for burglary.

    The only part I really take offense in your post is that you call M$ haters mindless. We're absolutely normal people who don't have the memory of a goldfish.
    And you know what? With what they have pulled and tried to pull, they deserve all this hatred for the rest of our lives. Fuck them and Fuck you for being so ignorant.

    How can you do any inflation analysis and exclude the rest of the world? Dollars don't stay neatly inside the borders and there's also something called currency exchange.

    By the way, inflation is the increase of the money supply. Price increase, bottlenecks, increased demand whatever you want to talk about are symptoms of inflation.

  15. Everyone here is wrong on this. on Apple Store Artist Raided By Secret Service · · Score: 3, Interesting

    The way I see it he did two things and both of them are perfectly legal:

    1. Use computers that were made available for him to use by the apple stores
    2. take pictures of people in public places

    Taking pictures of people in public places is legal many times over, it's not even worth discussing.
    Using the computers that were put there for public use, is completely legal as well. He did not sign any contract saying what he would or would not do on them, there was no agreement signed that he would not install software on them. They're just offered up for public usage and installing software is such usage.

    I don't see anything legally, ethically or morally wrong with what he did. In fact, I hope he sues the bejeezus out of the thugs who broke into his house and stole his equipment.

    The entire language about 25% vesting per year has no other purpose being there than to con people.

  19. Re:Bitcoin to revolutionise economy on Bitcoin Price Crashes · · Score: 3, Interesting
    LOL, even a child can figure this exploit out.

    You as a bank lend me $100. I deposit it in my account with you. You now have $100 in deposits and can lend me $1000. I deposit it back into my account and you now have $1000 in deposits and can lend me $10,000. Repeat ad nauseum. In actuality, between us we only have $10 and not $10,000.
    Now I suppose we could reverse the situation If I just paid all my loans back. But that's not possible because you don't want the principal back. You want principal + interest.
    Where does the money come to pay the interest? It doesn't, because it doesn't exist.

    In fact, the same ponzy scheme is played out at the currency level.
    For every $ the FED creates and disperses into the money supply, they charge interest on. Which means, they want that $+interest back. But if they only gave out a $ but they want $+interest back, where does the money come from to pay the interest? It doesn't exist. It can never be paid back.
    The only solution is to create more money. And that's why we're in the shite we're in today and why the $ is worth only 4 cents of what it used to be worth.

    With all the shit talking people do here on RMS, he's right on a lot of fundamental things. This includes his campaign against cloud services.

    The only reason you would have your host rename your blog or account with no regard to you is because you are not your own host. People enter into these disgusting one sided contracts multiple times per day and then they're surprised when the party holding all the cards actually plays them. It's the definition of stupidity.

    Willingly signing your rights away and then run around crying when you get shafted. Then you run crying to the politicians because now you need them to fix it, you don't care what they do but something must be done about it. And of course they seize the moment to push through whatever power grabbing measures that only go one way, ratcheting away everyone else's freedoms too with all sorts of unintended consequences.

    Same reason I'll never get a damn kindle.

    Let me try to explain how I read it. Simply put, you cannot hijack the GPL license by using technical tricks if your intention is clearly to hijack the license. Doesn't matter how you do it, you throw a jury trial in the mix and when your intentions are recognized you stand a good chance of losing.
