I have netflix and comcast as well. I went nearly a month unable to use netflix on my ps3, then I switched to use the google DNS ( 8.8.8.8 ) and it suddenly worked flawlessly again.
Comcast has had other flaky reliability issues with their DNS service, but that specific problem of netflix never being able to connect is highly suspect.
The "Iranian spring" already came. It started the whole protest cascade in the middle east. It was called the green revolution, and it was crushed without mercy.
Social ownership and control of the means of production and cooperative management of the economy is communism.
Communism is an economic and political system that implements socialist ideals in one particular way. That is by no means the only way to include socialist aspects in the government and economy. You are artificially constricting the meaning, methods and possibilities of socialism.
Words and language are the source and method of human cognition. Without a proper, full and expressive language we would be no more than apes hurling feces at each other. There is a very purposeful war being waged on the meaning of certain words. The meaning of these words are being destroyed, limited or corrupted in an attempt to control the way people think to control what they are capable of thinking. The false conflation of socialism to communism is part of that war and you have accepted the dogma of those who would attack the most precious and distinguishing feature of mankind, our minds.
I understand what it means to be a libertarian. And he is not one. He is a liar, completely dishonest when he claims to be one.
A libertarian respects the liberties of the people, the "We The People Act" strips the ability of the supreme court to protect the peoples liberties and endorses states to infringe on those liberties. A libertarian respects the constitution to the extent that it respects the liberties of the people. Using the constitution as if it was an enumeration of rights and an excuse to deny the liberties of the people is anti-libertarian. There is no room for debate on this.
His voting against the civil rights act and connections to the Klan and neo-nazi are long standing based on his own publications, pictures, the testimony of members of those organizations in a court of law and records of campaign finance. It is the Paul supporters who attempting to spread propaganda and misinformation to deny his roots.
But if you are about to suggest Ron Paul, I will disagree with you. After writing the "We the People Act" and voting for the "Defense of Marriage Act" he is not what he claims. His connections to the klan and neo-nazi groups are just icing on the cake.
Not for that specific violation of peoples rights. There are however other areas where there has been some modest improvement, and other areas where the landslide of liberties removed has slowed to a trickle and occasionally stopped.
Ron Paul is completely unacceptable. He is a theocrat and Ayn Rand zealot who actively wants to gut the federal government and remove the supreme courts ability to defend citizens rights against trespass by the state.
He voted for DOMA, he wrote the "We the People Act". He is an anti-libertarian in sheeps cloths seeking to legitimize tyranny at the state level instead of the federal level.
Ron Paul is a theocrat and Ayn Rand zealot. Completely unacceptable.
Not even Gary Johnson meets my stardards because he endorses slavery through for profit private prisons exploiting forcing convicts to perform factory work that at the expense of paying wages to free citizens.
Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Reform. All are putrid vulgar fools. There isn't a single party that offers rational solutions to any of the problems we face and respects the principals that were supposed to make America a shining beacon of liberty. No matter what happens, this country is doomed.
Failure to replicate an experiment is not certain indication the the original experiment was flawed or manipulated. But it does wink suggestively in that direction.
You do realize that radioisotopic generators the size of a small fridge are used to power spacecraft all the time. And the Japanese have designs for fully self contained nuclear power plants the size of a bus.
Socialism is caring about society and and acting in a way that benefits society as a whole. Nearly all governments, save the most extreme autocracies have socialist aspects and it isn't a bad thing. It is a necessary part of living in together in relative peace with other humans.
Communism/Capitalism much more closely match your argument that it is great in theory but would never work due to human nature. Communism ignores greed as a fundamental aspect of human nature. Capitalism ignores deception, ignorance and poor planning by assuming that all players in the market are aware of all information necessary to make a fair trade in the market.

The article says the customer could use the official client to connect, doesn't sound like they distributed a modified copy of the client.
A sold copy IS a lost sale. A free copy isn't.

Battle for Wesnoth was decent.

Your definitions are wrong.
Social ownership and control of the means of production and cooperative management of the economy is communism.

rewording a paragraph and passing it off as your own is plagiarism, not copyright infringement. Two entirely different things.
I don't know enough about him, he doesn't have a lot of exposure in my part of the country.
From what I know he is a fiscally "moderate" (as far as republicans go) but socially conservative.
Not a fan of socially conservative, so probably no.
I understand what it means to be a libertarian. And he is not one. He is a liar, completely dishonest when he claims to be one.

Socialism isn't an economic system to be compared or contrasted with capitalism or communism.
It is the aspect of all government systems that seek to minimize harm to society as a whole. Nothing more, nothing less.
I would love to know.
But if you are about to suggest Ron Paul, I will disagree with you. After writing the "We the People Act" and voting for the "Defense of Marriage Act" he is not what he claims. His connections to the klan and neo-nazi groups are just icing on the cake.

The office of the VP Dick Cheney was responsible for the false evidence used to justify the war. Bush may or may not have been aware of that.
Ron Paul is a theocrat and Ayn Rand zealot. Completely unacceptable.
Not even Gary Johnson meets my stardards because he endorses slavery through for profit private prisons exploiting forcing convicts to perform factory work that at the expense of paying wages to free citizens.
And who will we side with?
Is there any valid alternative?
Gary Johnson of the libertarian party supports slavery VIA private for profit prison labor plus retarded economic beliefs.
Republicans have a far worse track record on civil liberties than the democrats, plus retarded economic beliefs.
Seriously, give me one person who respects civil liberties, has integrity, and is neither a theocrat or Ayn Rand free market worshiping retard.
And before you accuse me of being a communist, they suck too.
Someone is a war criminal.
Bush? maybe. Cheney? definitely.
But yes, Obama isn't much better.
I don't have anyone I can vote for any more.

How so? I'm aware of it, but I don't see how it relates to this thread.
You do realize that radioisotopic generators the size of a small fridge are used to power spacecraft all the time. And the Japanese have designs for fully self contained nuclear power plants the size of a bus.
What the fuck are you talking about? I don't know what it is, but it isn't socialism.
And only for the purpose of procreation...
And you better use a sheet with a hole in it to prevent unnecessary contact.
It goes back at least as far as the original Fallout.
Black Isle -> Bioware -> EA.
You seem to be confused about what socialism is.
Socialism is caring about society and and acting in a way that benefits society as a whole. Nearly all governments, save the most extreme autocracies have socialist aspects and it isn't a bad thing. It is a necessary part of living in together in relative peace with other humans.
