"If you're such a goddamn genius, tell me again why you're not rich?"
Not everyone wants to be rich. Unlike Mr.Gates, my role and mission in this world is to improve society, to help solve the worlds problems and to make this world better than it was before I was forced to live here.
Some people don't live to make money, just because you and Bill Gates are diehard capitalists does not mean I and everyone else gives a damn about being rich and making money. I will not sell my soul for a dollar, I will not lie, scam people, backstab people, and exploit people for money. Sure you'd lie to someone and trick people for money, you are as sneaky as Bill Gates but some of us have morals.
I mean, I'm assuming here that the constant complaints about being too poor to even fucking eat (transposed, humorously, with news of your purchasing a new MP3 jukebox) indicates that you're not, indeed, rich.
I purchased a "new" Mp3 jukebox? Not recently. I have an mp3 jukebox I purchased like 6 months ago, annnnnnd I didnt use my own money to buy it. When you do your research on me, please get it right, Mp3 jukeboxes can be purchased used on ebay for cheap, and in some cases you dont pay a dime, if you get financial aid and loans which you pay back later.
If you think for one minute that either of those two men just sat on their asses and magically became rich, then you've got a whole lot of the world to learn about outside of your pampered college environment.
Oh yeah, and last time I checked, it just so happens that you were studying Computer Science. Funny, huh? They don't do a goddamn thing all day if it's not sitting on their asses. Bet that makes you feel really guilty.
Bill Gates dropped out of college, how is he working harder than I am when hes a damn dropout?!
Pampered college environment? That makes no sense, how exactly do you get through college WITHOUT working hard?
Oh yeah, and last time I checked, it just so happens that you were studying Computer Science. Funny, huh? They don't do a goddamn thing all day if it's not sitting on their asses. Bet that makes you feel really guilty.
When did I say I was studying computer science? Guess what, you are WRONG.
Its not hard work to come up with ideas, or steal other peoples ideas, I have plenty of ideas, theres no shortage of ideas, and thats all Bill Gates does for a living now, he goes to meetings and comes up with ideas.
Thats not hard work to me, to me its harder to actually do slave labor, how would you like to work 12+ hours a day in 140 degree Iraq like our troops? That is hard work. How would you like to work in a factory all day?
You are lazy, just like Bill Gates the dropout richboy who just used his money to buy and steal ideas all his pathetic life.
This same thing happens in the USA in ghettos. Look at gang leader, the gang leader goes to the poor community, flashes money around, talks a good talk, and suddenly has a million followers.
Think of the black panthers, luis farakhan, jesse jackson and others who basically go to poor communities, and talk and suddenly have a million followers.
Yes when you go to people who have nothing, and then find some devil, be it the white devil, or the american devil to blame it on, well its easy.
Hitler did this to the jews, the jews were the cause of all germanys problems, just like to certain republicans, its the blacks and hispanics who are taking all the jobs.
Every leader usually blames some evil people or group of people to gain support, George Bush even does this. "Those evil towel heads!! the axis of evil" etc kinda crap he says sure it gets the Americans to support him and blame all terrorism on the arabs.
Fact is, Bin Laden does what all leaders do, go to the people who have nothing, offer them a way out through heaven and religion, brainwash them into commiting suicide while at the same time convincing them to hate by telling them "Well its that evil white american man causing all these problems!"
And you know what, when Bush the White American male goes on TV and calls them all evil, well it just confirms it. When we drop bombs on them you know what, its like what the republicans do.
"Well, lets lock all those who live in the ghettos in the USA in prison, lets get rid of welfare, let them get jobs and work their way out"
Well this makes it easier for the gang leader to recruit and say "See! I told you the white man hates you, Look at what hes doing locking you up in prison and cutting all your programs!, join me and sell drugs, at worse you'll be in prison and at best you'll be rich!"
Bin Laden isnt doing the terrorism, Bin Laden is the educated intelligent speaker/leader. Buddha also came from a rich backround. Thats not the point, the point is Bin Laden couldnt go to ghettos throughout the middle east gaining support if everyone there had something to lose. People would think twice about killing themselves if they actually had stuff to lose besides a mudhut. I mean come on.
Yes it just so happened that Bill Gates and Warren Buffet are the hardest working men in the world,
I mean Bill Works so hard, look at him in this picture working hard thinking of ways to profit off other peoples ideas http://www.microsoft.com/billgates/
We all know Mr.Gates works harder than the sweatshop workers of taiwan and china who work 12 hours for a dollar.
That will never happen. When our population increases too much to support the darwinist conservative ideology, we will just go to war and kill some people,or stop sending food to countries and let them starve.
How about we make a site which lets people rate their boss, and if the boss gets enough bad ratings hopefully the higher ups will see the data and fire him.
When Bill Gates spends the fucking money, we wont have to patch the software every second of every day.
Yes every OS needs patches, even Linux and OSX, but on Linux and OSX, most of the bugs are in server software like Apache, not bugs in the Kernel itself!
Maybe if Microsoft released a better OS itself we wouldnt have to worry about our computers being hiijacked via a simple virus, perhaps if the OS didnt run in root all the time, perhaps if they checked for buffer overruns and used their damn money we wouldnt have to check their security for them by hacking their damn OS.
I mean look at the guy, he has what? 40-50 billion dollars? Then you have Microsoft with maybe 50-100 billion dollars in excess cash just sitting in the bank.
Something is wrong with this guys brain if he cant spend a penny of his money to fix his OS even when little script kiddies are hacking it.
I mean come on, we have governments, (including ours) using this piece of shit OS, we made this piece of shit Bill Gates the richest man in the world, and he cant even spend his money?! Whats his plan? To put all his money in a little room and then spend hours of every day counting it?
Maybe if Microsoft were to invest $14 billion in R&D like they are supposed to, they'd have a secure OS!
Bill Gates is just a greedy bastard and refuses to admit it, he is the richest man in the world but hes trying his "best" to fix his buggy OS, all on the cheap of course, using indian labor and spending the least amount on R&D possible.
We should get a refund, all these billions we gave to Bill Gates, and he cant spend some of it to fix his damn OS?
He is trying his best? What a load of bullshit!!!!! Microsoft just refuses to spend their #$@! money!!!!

MIT would be best to build the network themselves, create the protocol and everything, and just give it to students. If MIT builds it they can put it control mechanisms to help them control bandwidth.
They can also make it secure and annonymous so they dont have to police the network anymore.

What will stop people from using WiFi for filesharing? WiFi will become its own internet.
And, yes, I know about the students at RIT (or was it RPI?). But that was still a high-profile public network where information was available to the RIAA. Keep it between you and your friends, and you don't have a lot to worry about.
Oh, yeah, and the RIAA doesn't really care, because your friends don't have enough music that they're really bothered. But how is this different than just sharing on a private LAN or using SneakerNet?
Lets say I'm CEO of a technology company and I release a new device that when you plug it into the wall or put a battery in it, suddenly you connect to the grid of WiFi and can download from anyone else connected to the grid. No IP addresses, no way to identify who is who, everything completely annonymous and secure.
This would be the RIAA's worse nightmare, because anyone will be able to buy this device instead of a radio, go on their computer and download this music through THIS device, get free telephone calls through THIS device, etc etc.
I admit, we arent there yet, the technology is still being developed, but once WiFi is wide spread, I'm guessing within 3 years or so, this is going to be an RIAA killer technology.
A private Lan, becomes a WAN, which becomes an internet. Here is how it could work. I could connect my whole apartment building to the grid through one big lan, which connects to the next apartment, and so on and so forth until every apartment is on the grid. People could use something secure like a modified version of waste on the software level, the network could start with thousands of people, which could increase to millions of people as college campuses connect to the grid in mass, each campus will be able to connect to each other, each person will be on the grid, and because its a grid it will know where everyone is via math formula instead of IP address.
This will be impossible to stop, or at least very difficult, the only thing to stop it could be weather or jamming devices if the RIAA comes up with some technology to do that. IF the data is encrypted there will be no way for anyone ot know whats being transfered.
"The GUI runs on the user level, not the kernel level. As I said, your technical arguments are based on ignorance."
Don't you think I know the difference between the Linux kernel and the Linux OS? If the best arguement you can come up with is to redefine the definition of Linux, I suppose you conceed and I officially win.
If you want to ignore the benefits of collaberation and portability, buy yourself a copy of Windows. That's what you really want.
I dont use Linux for portability, I could care less if it runs on every piece of software every designed if it runs slowly. Mozilla does this too, its portable, and because of that its slow as hell.
Java is portable, and because of this its slow as hell. Portable code is never better than native code, and I dont own every piece of hardware on planet earth, I only care about how the software I run happens to perform on the hardware I use. You compability fools should run your java based OS, there are many of them for you.
By the way I'd sooner run OSX before running Microsoft, Microsoft thinks like you, trying to make everything compatible with the older versions of Windows, therefore they have a messed up API, and tons of bugs. Compatibility slows progress, its a fact, perhaps if Windows dropped trying to be compatible they'd have a secure unix based operating system by now.
Others simply don't have the qualifications to go to college.
Over 80% of people graduate highschool. Over 90% of people have at least a GED or above. Meaning less than 10% of people do not have the qualifications for college. "Socialsim is not inherently bad in my opinion. I think society has an obligation to help people to a certain extent. You can't just let stupid people starve. But the difference I see on this board is how much help is really helping or just enable people to mooch off the system. I have to say from my years of experience I think people are overly ignorant of how people fall through the cracks. Everyone just assumes, you get fired, you go on UI, you get on welfare, someone will always take care of you. Not so, if you look a little deeper at the details."
Its not easy to go on welfare anymore because conservatives want to remove all the safety nets.
The more safety nets we remove the higher the crime rate, this is why when conservatives take office crime seems to rise, and the prisons fill.
Filling the Prisons, or Welfare, which sounds better to you? People who cannot find a job will rob you before starving. Think about it.
Most immigrants are on welfare or in prison. I dont know where you get the "immigrants are successful" crap.
Hispanics make up the majority of immigrants, and guess what, the majority of prisoners are hispanic, the majority of the people on welfare are hispanic, and most hispanics are poor.
Take a trip to california and look at the immigrant ghettos, projects, slums, high crime rates, messed up urban schools, etc.
Please tell me that you see the same immigrant communities I see, Arnold is an exception, hes not the norm, it usually takes a generation to work your way up, the first generation immigrant lives in hell here and works their way out of the dangerous crime/drug filled ghettos that you are too afraid to drive through and would most likely roll your windows up when you pass.
I can tell you arent an immigrant, which is why you make such ridiculous comments and have such high optimism, ignoring the fact that immigrants do fail.

Republicans want 100% of the wealth while the rest of the losers get exactly 0%.
Expect lots of people to starve to death even in the world of robots.
When wealth isnt distributed, crime goes up, terrorism goes up, etc etc.
The idea that we can fight terrorism with bombs isnt very smart, in the end the only way to solve this problem is with jobs, education, etc.
This isnt going to work because I refuse to give up my job to fight terrorism.
Which is why we have poverty, prisons, welfare, and the republican party.
So let them try to sue 60 million people, they cant sue everyone in the world.
