    Yeah! because the chances of young, professional looking Americans, hiking on the border of Iraq and Iran and being CIA agents is PRETTY INSIGNIFICANT. Hell, my friends and I all wanted to take a hike through a warzone and 'accidentally' get lost into a neighbouring country but the travel agent said that trip was SOLD OUT.
    /sarcasm

    Just the actions, manerisms and behavior of the woman since she was freed already has CIA written all over them. Put that together with the propaganda and where they were and I'd start wagering money on it.

    Oh wait, I'm sorry, did you actually have proof they weren't CIA?

  4. Re:No bugs, Nothing went wrong on SEC Blames Computer Algorithm For 'Flash Crash' · · Score: 4, Insightful

    A program that runs as designed but produces a undesirable result has a "design flaw" which is a class of "bug". Such things need to be "fixed".

    What program are you talking about? If you read the parent post you will notice that no single program had an undesirable effect. The market as a whole entity was what failed, the failure was not in any individual program.

    If you want to know what I think, the market didn't fail. What was a failure was the response of freezing markets and reversing trades.

    Those trades were made by consenting adults in good faith or the trading systems that they entered into willingly. Money was lost and money was made. Fuck anyone who got burned, that's a normal day in trading. Or it should be, but unfortunately if a enough big players lose enough money they reverse the trades for them.

    How fucking stupid are you?

    You're implying that you would like to see ads for things you are interested in. Well fucking wake up mate. There are lies, damn lies and then there are advertisements. Whatever useful information contained in an ad is completely outweighed by the bogus fucking lies they will tell you with the intent on selling you. And if that's not enough, they're obviously going to leave out anything that would encourage you to not buy their shit.

    Worst of all, have you ever even watched an ad? If any ads were reality, then chosing the right toothpaste would make you FUCKING HAPPY AS BLISS and using the right condom would get you laid by a supermodel and drinking the right liquor would make you a million dollars.

    Seriously, if you are clueless enough to ever even contemplate that you might benefit or enjoy watching an ad; you're already sold mate.

  17. Re:Best way to fix it on No, Net Neutrality Doesn't Violate the 5th Amendment · · Score: 1

    And right now, the "free market" continues to be at the mercy of a handful of parasites who, on getting into the right positions...

    These "positions" are government-granted and ENFORCED monopolies.

    The only reason comcast, verizon and whomever else is able to even *threaten* to do away with net neutrality is because they have government granted monopolies and *I* as a consumer, don't have elsewhere to go.
    If they were not government-granted monopolies and tried to do away with net neutrality, I would immediately switch to a different provider.

    The fact is that while the government played a beneficial and very early role, it is now first and foremost playing a deleterious role on net neutrality, freedom of speech and freedom from persecution. Not only through it's private partnership monopolies, but also through laws like the Patriot Act , No Electronic Theft Act (NET Act) and The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 .

    Let us not forget that the U.S. government, with assistance from major telecommunications carriers including AT&T, has engaged in a massive program of illegal dragnet surveillance of domestic communications and communications records of millions of ordinary Americans since at least 2001. And also the U.S. government is no longer providing full habeas corpus on domestic soil, to United States citizens.

    The truth is much more complicated than "is the government good or evil". The government, as in fact a single individual, can be both good and evil; And the issues have to be fought individually.

    In this case though, the most important thing to point out, is that the government is not "our saviour" with respect to net neutrality, because it is the oppressor pointing the guns at us and enforcing the monopolies of the private firms who are trying to fuck up the internet.

    Take away the government-granted monopolies, government spying, government oppression and government control and you take away just about all of the threats we are fighting against with this net neutrality issue.

  18. Re:Ever been to Brazil? on $200B Lost To Counterfeiting? Back It Up · · Score: 1

    Because of Brazil's 60% duty on imported goods, an a very unfavorable exchange rate, a pair of Nike sneakers made in Singapore for $5 in materials and $0.30 in slave labor costs about R$600

    $5.30 to make the shoe + 60% import tax = $8.48.
    At the current exchange rate this is R$14.8

    Not only this but I can also point out the proposed human symptoms (which also come from correlation type studies):

    4. Promiscuity and greater conscientiousness (in women)
    5. Studies have found that toxoplasmosis is associated with an increased car accident rate in people with Rh-negative blood. The chance of an accident relative to uninfected people is increased roughly 2.5 times. This may be due to the slowed reaction times that are associated with infection.

    Slower reaction times and 2.5x greater chance of being involved in car accidents don't sound like a way to make a better football player.
