    hell yes. When the police so blatantly violate their civil duties and constitutional limitations they should face the absolute full wrath of the legal system. There is no excuse for this kind of abuse of power.

    Did you bother to read the link you posted? That is precisely the ideology that I was referring to. I am aware of at least 3 different meanings to the word fascist, all of them can apply in this context.

    Its been my observation that local school boards are the breeding ground of fascist police statists at every "opportunity" I have had to deal with them. After all, children are not citizens, they are not even fully human. The constitution, morality and common sense need not factor into any decision made by local school boards in regards to the safety, education and indoctrination of school children.

    The difference between real time strategy and turn based strategy is the amount of time you are given to take your turn before it is skipped.

    A turn based strategy gives you large or infinite time to plot each turn, while a real time strategy game may give you a fraction of a second. However they are, fundamentally the same at their core.

    The internet industry was already given tax money to implement infrastructure once. That money was distributed to shareholders as profit. And since there was no punishment clause, they never had to implement the infrastructure that they agreed to.

    They also went through a massive geo engineering project to prevent the natural course of the river from moving west of the city away from the city of new orleans. To save its port economy instead of building a different god damn port.

  15. Re:Pay no attention! on Federal Judge Says Corps of Engineers Liable For Katrina Damage · · Score: 4, Informative

    Its paranoia, but partially justified paranoia. In 1927 they did blow the levee to prevent economic damage to New Orleans (and causing a flash flood that killed several people south of the city).

    They did it once? why not do it again? The circumstances were different, and it wouldn't work this time. And the water wouldn't have anywhere to go. The "rich" french quarter was "saved" by being the oldest part of the city, built on dry land before the levees and higher than the rest of the city. Its a ridiculous notion, and not correct, but sometimes ridiculous things happen.

    These kinds of emergency notifications should be as hard to opt out of as possible. For a real emergency as many people need to know about it as possible. Unless of course "this is a test of the emergency broadcasting system...".

  17. nihilist on Building a 32-Bit, One-Instruction Computer · · Score: 4, Insightful

    vaguely reminds me of the nihilist language joke. A language that realizes that ultimately all things are futile and irrelevant, thus allowing all instructions to be reduced to a no-op.

    GIMP isn't ready for serious users because its called GIMP. The word has a fairly long history and association with homoerotic bondage and would be seen as sexually deviant by most people. Someone not familiar with GIMP will have no idea what it actually does and have the above pretext as the only clue. These people with either be terribly offended and avoid it, or be sorely disappointed when they don't find the kink they thought they would.

    Actually no.

    Pirate bay has poor organization, finding exactly what you want can be difficult.

    You can not start watching a film from a torrent in 10 minutes.

    You can not (more than likely) finish downloading a film from a torrent in the length of that film + 10 minutes.

    However, that 10 minutes of advertising needs to pay for bandwidth+licensing, could be a very slim profit margin, especially if they don't use a live video peer to peer solution.
