What I mean is, why was it allowed to hold meetings to determine if someone is a communist? How is that different from holding hearings to see if someone is a libertarian? Why would either be permitted?
I understand the time they took place in, I still don't understand why it was permitted given that the US was a democracy.
Did you see other roaches? Just because you see one roach doesn't mean there is an infestation. It could have been on someones luggage or towel or anything.
It doesn't work like that. If what he did is a crime, then the money raised and then given to him is profit as a direct result of that crime. Which isn't allowed.
I'm genuinely curious, I lived in Montreal for a year.
I always thought it was just the arrogance of the Quebecois that they refused to have anything to cater to the majority English speaking population, even though they put on quite the tantrum to make English speaking areas be bilingual.
But so what? I'm not American and don't know much about that era, so please excuse my ignorance.
However, it always confused me how it was legal to hold hearings to see if someone was a communist or not, and punish those who were.
In a democratic country like the US was supposed to be at that time, people should be free to hold whatever view or opinions they want. If that included communism, so be it. Indeed, there should be no reason a communist party couldn't exist to have a chance at being voted in.
Surely everything McCarthy did was unconstitutional?
You said Linux had the same preventative technologies that windows has. I pointed out that:
Fedora has SELinux, and everyone complains about and disables it
AppArmor is an extremly lightweight form of MAC, and only Ubuntu implements it correctly. It also only applies to applications that ship with the distro.
Most distributions don't include applications compiled with support for DEP and ASLR, despite the support being in the kernel.
You were able to concede that applications need to be compiled to support ASLR, so that's something.
I also disagree that Windows has less vulnerabilities than Linux. As a security researcher, the linux philosophy regarding security is horrible. There are many quotes from Linus and Greg K-H saying they don't treat security bugs any differently than normal bugs. To them a 0 day that can give a remote root shell is "just another bug".
The Windows dev team started taking that shit seriously about the time of Vista, and they have really done a good job.
Vulnerabilities are a pretty poor measure of security, but if you really want to use that metric, let's compare Ubuntu, the most popular Linux Distro, with Windows 7, the most popular version of Windows.
According to Secunia, a pretty reliable company for these sorts of things, Windows 7 has 310 vulnerabilities, while Ubuntu Linux has 1199 vulnerabilities.
Just to make that clear, Ubuntu 12.04 has 889 more vulnerabilities than Windows 7.
Most Apple people don't bother to evaluate alternatives, they simply stick to Apple. Which is also loyalty, it just happens to come form blindly following.
Seasons 1 and 2 were instrumental in Showing who Walt is. It wouldn't be the show without showing him at his starting point. Gus was great, but it is Walt that makes the show.
That's funny, because I still don't know of a legal way to watch movies.
I want to download a file on my computer and play it as I like. No DRM, no special player needed. I watch from different computers at home and at work.
I generally delete it after I watch it, so would be fine with a rental.
Having to subscribe to a service that is only watchable in a browser with a shitty proprietary plugin is not a sufficient alternative, IMO.
This is because the people don't want a a 3rd party. Not really.
It really isn't that hard to start a political party and get on the ballot in each state...in almost all cases, if you have enough people to support you, that's all you need.
Even when you had something massive like OWS, which had enough support to vote themselves in as a party and change things...they don't.
The system is in place. It's just that no one uses it.
Slashdot Mirror
He operated servers and conducted business in the US. Extradition.
Not to say I agree with it.
KFC is still extremely tasty. You just started believing a change in ownership resulted in a change in the recipe and quality of the food. It didn't.

Really, you overreacted.
Sleeping in clothes with the light on...lol.
It doesn't work like that. If what he did is a crime, then the money raised and then given to him is profit as a direct result of that crime. Which isn't allowed.
You overreacted. A single roach? Really?
not all people react the same way to bedbugs....
Where do you get that from?

You sir, are most certainly a dip shit. Using a URL shortener to hide the fact that you're being a dipshit.

I had thought it was open source all this time. Huh.
If your ping in a game is normally 50ms and it starts being consistently closer to 90ms, then it's right to suspect something is up.
OK, I'll bite.

Are we done?

I just read up on that...that's actually really disturbing! Many peer reviewed studies supporting that finding...eek!
I haven't seen nor heard of any proof that reptile aliens don't secretly live among us, disused as humans.
Not at all. Decent is subjective. Obviously there are alternatives to android, i.e. other options. It just requires compromising quality.
crazy.....I didn't realize things were so rigged....
Well, no, you didn't refute anything. You even admitted you had a very poor understanding of the things I was talking about.
I replied showing your points to be incorrect.
As I said, other people reading this can judge for themselves.

Let me pay $3 for a download, and I gladly will.
How about:
2. I get a lot of stuff I wouldn't pay for for free, knowing it is subsidized by those who truly like it.
3. I pay for stuff I truly like, supporting it.
The great thing about 2 is it increases exposure for people who wouldn't have had access to materials otherwise. A net benefit for society.
I can live with some rich people not being as rich.
Do you have more information on this?
How is it their only option. I have an android phone because I think it is the best mobile OS...I have a loyalty to it.
I considered Apple, Blackberry and Windows Mobile..none of which were better in my opinion. So it's hardly my, or anyone's only choice.
