Oh, and even if there were a crime, it is not against the law to not report a crime. Therefore, there was no unlawful order. Now, please, shut the fuck up.
Again, you obviously have no clue about what you are talking about. I do know about the law of war and the law of the land. I suggest you check out the treaty that ended of the First Gulf War.
You have no clue what you are talking about. By releasing classified information, Bradley violated a law order. More importantly, it was a treasonous act during wartime which may have provided aid to the enemy. He can try to claim it was an unlawful order, but that is what will be decided at trial. And, I will tell you straight up, it wasn't an unlawful order.
You should spend time in the military and learn the law before you speak about either.
Actually, if you are contempt of court, the judge CAN order you to white wash your own wall covered with graffiti you wrote. And, if you refuse to do so, the judge can put you in jail until you agree to do so, and put you back in jail if you fail to do so.
1.Cutting people with knives is a crime. 2.Surgeons cut people with knives. 3.Surgeons are criminals.
Please demostrate how this fits into that form.
Someone who has committed a crime before is highly likely to commit a crime in the future. In humans, previous behavior is a good indicator of future behavior. First, one doen't need a facebook account to get a job or otherwise function in society. Second, punishment was included because of a specific act by the defendant that almost no other drunk driver has done, making light about her crime on facebook. And, you don't tie your example in your second paragraph to your argument in the third.
Seriously, if you are going to try and argue logically, you should learn a little bit about logic.
You sound just like my junky ex-girlfriend. First heroin, then "roxies" and "xanies' all self-prescribed for "anxiety". She also said drug companies were making drugs more addictive to get people hooked. She convienently overlooks the fact all her junky friends were never prescribed their drugs of choice. She loved to talk about how herion was better than oxycontin because it was more natural.
Yes give someone dugs they aren't prescribed. I have no doubt you are yet another drug abuser "self-prescribing". I have little doubt a hang nail or just wanting to get high is burried in that etc.
No, Mostly, it is stupid fucks abusing the drugs who are the ones becoming hooked. Don't abuse drugs and chances are you won't become addicted to any thing.
Oh, and apparently prescription heroin is available in the U.K. Your argument is invalid.
You are going to get a lot of people saying "There is no problem." You are going to get a lot of people saying "Fix this problem with my favorite distro" You are going to get a lot of people saying "Fix this hardware problem that gives people problems"
In other words, you are going to get denial or narrow and self-serving answers.
The people that should be asked are people who don't use Linux. Get a bunch of people who have never used Linux, find out what applications they use, load up machines with Linux and their apps or the FLOSS equivalents, and have them use those computer. Then, ask them how to make Linux better on the desktop.
I use Windows 7 on my gaming laptop and I have switched mice in the middle of games, and even plugged in my N52te and had no problems. I have had Linux fail to recognize TV Tuner cards which worked perfectly with Windows. And, the Windows apps beat the shit out of the Linux apps. And, it is not WinTV.exe and nothing else.
Apple made OSX specifically for Apple hardware and only licenses it for use with Apple hardware, so you are using a false comparison. Try installing Windows 7 on 20 differnt laptops and see how far you get. Are you done being deliberately stupid, troll?
Yes, a vendor makes a system specifically for use with Linux, using tech that Linux has drivers for, and sets up Linux on it for the customer so it just works.
Now, try installing Linux on 20 different laptops and tell me how you do.
a) Pics or it didn't happen. b) Apparently you don't know the difference between a script and a compiled program. c) In other words, you are using the same version of the X Window System. No big surprise it continues to work.
This. A thousand times this. Way too many people and companies are using the browser as a general purpose network GUI. Stop expecting to be able to shove everything and the kitchen sink into the browser and expecting it to be able to handle it all quickly and securely without a single problem.
Really, people, it needs to be referred to as the "Linux Desktop Market" and not the "Linux Desktop". That way, there won't be post after post of computer geeks posting "What do you mean Linux on the desktop is dead? I am posting from a desktop running Linux right now."
At best, the market for desktops and laptops running Linux, preloaded or otherwise, is a niche. At worst, it is effectively non-existent.
As long as popular Windows and Mac OS X applications are not available on Linux, there will always be a reason NOT to use Linux. And, as long as one can run a VM with Linux, even a Linux killer app will be available on both Windows and Mac OS X
The same thing that would happen if I took clock.exe from windows 1.1 and tried to run it in windows 7.
Please post a screen shot of this occurring.
Except I have scripts that...
Is it that you don't know the difference between scripts and complied applications or that you know the difference and are making a false equivalency or that you are deliberately extending the discussion to something not being discussed (scripts) to "score points" (red herring) or that you are extending the example beyond the original endpoint of the discussion (moving the goal posts)?
I still have an old version of syncterm on my system that has x11 messaging support for being controlled via other application. It still works today on a modern x.org server from a perl script.
How about using something from X10, assuming you can find it?
If one is that close to the blast, one has to worry about shrapnel and the pressure wave. Those are much more dangerous than the heat of the explosion.
Yes, because following the directions one is given by one's boss is so lame. I mean who cares if I do what I am supposed to do and am paid to do, right? I will get something done and if it doesn't suit them, fuck'em, right?
The fact that Anonymous is able to get literally thousands of people to agree on a common target, launch a program(which they developed), and stick with running it for more than a few seconds with little to no feedback from it is truly a remarkable feat of organization
That is a false statement. A hand of people decide to attack a target. Thousands of sheeple out to stick it to the Man are running the program with little or no knowledge of what the program does, how it does it, or who is actually being attacked. The programs are developed by a small group of people and not the thousands of sheeple.
Basically, Anonymous consist of a very small group of deciders, some or all of whom are the technically skilled group who created the tools, and a massive group of idiotic followers who simply do what they are told when they are told so they will feel like they are empowered when they are just sheep. These same followers think that DDoS the CIA's public website is the same as hacking into the CIA's internal network and servers. They mistake tearing down posters for doing real damage.
I remember a/. comment from a week or two back that mentioned a colleague/peer who was told he had to submit reports on the number of new lines of code produced every week. Through editing and refining the software, he ended up with a net loss of 20,000 lines of code (and submitted -20,000 in his report).
The me see if I have the straight. He was told to submit a report on "the number of new lines of code produced". He didn't produce -20,000 lines of new code. He "edited and refined" the code which could mean many things including writing new code to replace old poorly written code. If he replaced 30,000 lines of crap spaghetti code with 10,000 of new, tight code, he produced10,000 lines of new code to replace 30,000 lines of old code. What he did not do is produce -20,000 lines of new code.
In other words, according your summary above, he did not follow direction in reporting which means he failed to answer the question asked. If I were his manager, I would have seriously considered firing the "colleague/peer" you mention for being stupid and not following directions. At the very least, I would have had a very direct conversation with him about why he couldn't follow simple work reporting directions.

Assange IS an enemy of the United States. His words and deeds show that.

It is not a fallacy of accident. A fallacy of accident has the form:

It is called market research.
Yeah, I call bullshit.

Name something Linux does that Windows doesn't. Or something that Linux does better than Windows.
Not get viruses and trojans, dumbass. Duh.
Yet. Just look at Apple and OS X.
Yes, a vendor makes a system specifically for use with Linux, using tech that Linux has drivers for, and sets up Linux on it for the customer so it just works.

Or, we could stop trying use the browser as a general, all-purpose UI and start writing secure network application frontends.
This. A thousand times this. Way too many people and companies are using the browser as a general purpose network GUI. Stop expecting to be able to shove everything and the kitchen sink into the browser and expecting it to be able to handle it all quickly and securely without a single problem.

I think you have that backwards.
