I don't think you deserved a -1 for that, but you do deserve to be woken up to the harsh reality of the world where the US courts do whatever the fuck pleases them at the time and the government doesn't give a shit about what they said the law was yesterday when your tax dollars come to arrest you today.
The judge would likely rule that bitcoin is money then imprison you for contempt of court until you stop talking about Citizens United.
I'm glad one person remembers optical media and its lack of this side effect
Funny, I remember optical media being unreadable just months after it was burned. Sure, you can say don't use cheap media, but how do you know your media is good?
Freeway driving is trivial: you don't hit what's in front of you, you don't hit what's beside you. Basic sensors can pull off both of these feats. You get bonus points if you can stay in a lane, but plenty of shitty human drivers manage to pull it off following those two basic rules.
Getting off the freeway is where it starts getting difficult. Even google maps sometimes misses the exit and tells me to turn right while I'm doing 60 over an overpass.
Why didn't they call it 4X since it's 4X the pixels?
Because then they couldn't steal the thunder from the real 4K 4320p standard that was being worked on, which everyone would have just sat out a TV generation to wait for.
TV Tokyo is promising 4320p (now called "8K" just to keep one step ahead) broadcast for the 2020 Olympics. Are you sure you want to buy that "4K" TV now?
So what you're saying is that his wife is 600 pounds, ugly as hell, can't hold a conversation, is batshit insane, hairy as a bear, stinks like a used rag, and doesn't even put out more than once a year, therefore he only married her because she'll kill him?
Burden on the living? I suppose you keep all your pets alive after they've long since lost the ability to walk and feed themselves and not shit themselves and spend their days in constant pain.
After all, it's no burden on the living, only a burden on the dying.
I'm not sure which I'd rather do on my deathbed: live out my last months unable to move or communicate with tubes jammed in every orifice, or die of thirst. If the law treated all deprivation equally, then if I had to choose what to be deprived of, I'd have to choose Oxygen, at least based on the stories I've heard of people accidentally getting killed by CO2 in enclosed spaces. Sadly, I don't get that choice.
If the second case is true, then we could change regulations on the management of companies, maybe require more input from smaller share holders, or specifically prevent interlocking boards - if you are on the board of directors for one company you can't be an executive at another for some period of time.
While I think it would be beneficial to eliminate incestuous relationships between CEOs and boards, it'd be impossible to eliminate them entirely, they'd just make ever wider circle-jerks to make sure they get what's coming to them far enough down the line the government can't connect them together.
The first is the better option. I think it would be easiest to solve if we simply unilaterally amended all the corporate charters so that all corporate elections require either an option of a binding "No" vote, or else to consider all "Abstain" votes as a binding "No". Not the current practice of the CEO putting the pay package his brother on the board assembled to a vote with a choice of "Yes", and he gets to cast the first vote.
No, in his scenario, the tor exit node is run by a government that is watching all the traffic come out. Then they see your iPhone connection come out with your name, phone number, GPS location, etc. and can match that to all the other streams of data coming through the same circuit.
Hey David, I am fine, You were in ABC corp. for 3 years and you recently moved to XYZ corp., how do you feel about the difference, enjoying your new workplace?
If I received a text like that I'd know it was from a bot. I am fully aware I was in ABC corp for 3 years and I recently moved to XYZ corp, I don't need a reminder.
How about:
How's the new gig?
Hm, maybe I better patent bots that actually talk like a human?
something tells me tor is underutilized in this department
As it is, bittorrent won't work correctly over tor (tor's anonymization is (theoretically) one way, unless you're leaking your identity to everyone) Best you can do is be the leeching node that nobody can connect to and get whatever exit nodes you are using at the time hammered with everyone trying to connect to "you" for that one last little piece. People do it, but if everyone did it, nobody would be able to get anything.
What's needed is to rewrite it to listen on and broadcast hidden services rather than your IP to the swarm so the other members can connect. If anyone ever did it, the bandwidth consumption would probably destroy tor.
drug websites are even more hated by the government than tpb, and they aren't going anywhere any time soon
But not as hated as tormail, and the government seems to have done it in just fine.

every customer to call Comcast tech support
Who will lie to them and tell them it's not Comcast's fault. See also: Sandvine.
If it's good enough for nuclear launch code, it's good enough for my bank card!
A comparison in six words:
"It's OK when we do it."

two wrongs don't make a right.
It's only wrong if they don't want it, and their claims and actions say they do.
"Otherwise I wouldn't have married her."

Or maybe he's just into all that.
Yeah, God forbid the people who want everyone else to live long and suffer be exposed to the same fate. What an asshole!

Yeah, well, I'm Lord High Ruler of the Unknown Universe. Says so on my business card.
"Don't look at me, I'm just a CEO"
I'm pretty sure the guy at the top was in on the ruse too.
Guess who his boss is?

That's unthinkable!
To liberals, the only way to become higher is to cut off the feet of anyone taller than you.
To Republicans, the only way to become higher is to crawl up the bodies of those below you.
Neither side would ever consider, just for a second, to try standing up.

Except people tend to talk louder on the phone than in person
And they'll be screaming over the jet engines on top of that tendency.
But can PoE run while you're at work, collecting trillions and trillions of cookies? Wonderfully moist, delicious, tasty... sorry where was I?
