The only way to shut it down, is for large numbers of sheepH^H^HH^H^H^HH^consumers to not participate. Hum to yourself, enjoy the music you already possess, but do not obtain more. Do not go to concerts, do not buy songbooks, do not go to movies, do not rent DVDs, do not buy video games, do not in any way participate with the entertainment industry for several months. If they don't get the picture after that, drop out for good.
It's harsh, but it take sacrifice to win a war such as this. Let your representatives know that you are boycotting a source of revenue for the GDP, for the politicians pockets. The little musicians and actors most all have regular jobs to keep them from starving, and the big names...who cares? They got investments, don't they? There will be collateral damage, some innocent people will get hurt, but dang it man -- this is a brutal war for our rights
If only those calling themselves reporters were actually reporting. These days they cherry pick a few phrases, or even just a word or two here and there, mash it into something that be be played as a sensational sound bite, and then opine about it until a misconception is spread world wide.
I don't blame them for keeping the slugs out. At least they would have a tougher time distorting a transcript of the meeting.
Yeah, I'm aware (sheesh, I had no idea that I had to sit down when tossing those high flying zingers). The comment is more about using a product that is still under Redmond's radar. Better than groveling at the feet of the Evil Empire of Patent Trolls.
I was introduced to Middle Earth in grade school in the early seventies. By the time I hit 30 I had read the trilogy 16 or so times straight through, countless times of just having picked up one book somewhere in the middle (looking for something, no doubt), later surfacing to realize I head read the rest of the series. Read the Silmarillion in the space of a few days, enjoyed it and have re-read the book several times.
All that said -- I enjoyed the movies. Good story, compromises that were made didn't bother me, good visuals. I learned as a teenager, never expect the movie to be as the book is. I read a book, the movie is in my head. I watch a movie, the story is in my eyes and ears.
Yes, But I find there is much more non-redundant information in those publications than in the hundreds of 'me-too' rehashes of Microsoft's documentation. Anyway, I counted 25 English titles.
Even though it took a long time to get my own domain off their list after I left a mis-configured server out in the wild, I really appreciate all they have done over the years. Who will take up the mantle next?
I went to school for art as well, and then spent 25 years building stuff (trade show displays, furniture, houses, television and theater sets), so that when I decided to pursue a career in programming, all I had to do was learn a new language (or six).
Schools teach people to be cogs. It is safer that way. No leader (government, religious or business) really wants the schools to teach people how to think.
I'm alot more worried about being one of the 16,000 plus victims of DUI in America. Probably a fair number of alcoholic Chri$tian drivers behind those statistics.
That's why I support guns. I own them, I practice with them, and I think more people should be comfortable with them. When those authoritarian Chri$tian oligarchs start trying to take my freedoms by force (rather than by owning the government), I'll be ready to defend myself.
No, but he inherited the Iranian mess that that led to the hostage situation. Namely, the US backed overthrow of the popularly elected government of Iran in the '50s and the installation of the dictatorship of Reza Palahvi, the Shah of Iran. In 1979 the people stood up and took back their country from an often times brutal dictator (secret police, disappearing disidents, curtailed freedoms).
What they got in return might not be so wonderful, but it was their choice.
I was in Iran in the mid seventies, pre-revolution. Great people, nice country, superb culture. After the revolution, I was asked by several people, "How do you think that this happened? All those people shouting 'Death to America!'". I said to just think what it would be like here if the Southern Baptists authored a violent revolution and took over the country. Most people would start shouting "Amen, brother! Halleluiah!" faster than you could blink in order to avoid being 're-educated in the faith'.
The greatest threat to personal freedom and responsibility is the fundamentalists from any belief system.

Maybe it is a good thing that it is becoming an uber-crime when you look at this. http://www.madd.org/stats/1298
Your hand on a bush is worth two birds on the wing!
And don't forget that W's granpa was one of many making money selling oil to Hitler's war machine and dropping bucks on eugenics.
Too bad all that research on breeding better white folks didn't help his own family.

Thanks for the clarity. Refreshing.
Damn! I knew we should have stopped referring to 'pages' of memory.

All hail the daemon savior!
Ah yes, the French, never lost a battle; never won a war.
Funny---when I went to the prior post link---the link you submit is plain to see---on several pages regarding partioning.
Hear, hear!
Now I wouldn't say that...

They'd be dangerous.
A second? More like a minute after a few weeks of uptime. Some kind of serious memory leak somewhere in the stack.
Yessiree -- a gallon of gasoline has the same explosive power as a stick of dynamite.
Woo-hoo!
I've got a box full of 'em. Where do you want me to ship it?
