You don't think a life in prison is more expensive than an execution? Pa-leez no more appeals no more food and more room for the scumbag that just raped some old lady and got out in 2 years cause there wasn't room, less frivilous lawsuits by inmates awaiting execution who have nothing better to do. Yep you kill innocents every now and then and you jail innocents now and then...our system may not be the best but it isn't the worst either. To get a life sentance you have to be a pretty shitty fellow and you deserve to die...and that means right now...not when your 91 and cost us a heap of cash in feeding your worthless ass ( I mean that Editorially)
Been around for years I doubt that sparked anything

Maybe someone should give YOU to the nearest sex offender....maybe bleeding from your asshole for a few days would make you think a little more about kids getting raped...joke or not it isn't funny you moron.
While I agree with you somewhat I also think we are getting a little off point.
1. Should people be smart enough to realize some things for themselves without the 300 line disclaimer? Yes
2. Are people always that smart? No, hahah let me append that HELL NO...there are a lot of stupid people in this world that believe everything they are told. Too bad all of us smart people can't trust a damn thing anyone says anymore because you have to EXPECT people to be lying. But its the way the world works these days.
3. Do I think that those people that are NOT smart enough deserve whatever they have coming to them? Yes
4. Do I think there should be truth in advertising? Yes
And #4 is really the whole point of my argument. Do I need a warning on my fork...hehe probably (JK), no I don't but when does it stop?
"EVERYONE WHO BUYS PEPSI WILL GET A MILLION DOLLARS"
Will that ever happen? Probably not but that is because there will be laws and fines if they are stupid enough to make the claim. Its not to protect the 90% of us that are smart enough its to protect the 10% of us that aren't. But don't think for a second that Pepsi wouldn't do that if they could:
a) get away with it and b) get just a few people to believe it
As for calling pepsi to Verify this. Thats bull...every time McDonalds gives away a car I should call them to confirm that its for real?
"Hello? McDonalds? Yes I just won a free bag of small fries from one of those peely off things on the soda....yes is that for real? Are you trying to pull the wool over my eyes?"
Its absurd...and I think if you think about it for a bit you'll see that too...Whats the difference if its a $0.60 bag of fries or a $20,000 car or a $23M jet?
Thats the whole thing though. They didn't say a model harriar jet and he never said I want the one from the commercial. They said a Harrier jet and he said he wanted a harrier jet. You would be right if they said "7M points for a model jump jet" but they didn't. So the same thing should apply for a car promotion. If they offer you a new 99 porche and you win you get a 99 porche not a model of it ( unless that was what they said they were giving away).
Whether I believe they were really going to do it or not is beside the point. They offered a plane for 7 million points and didn't give it away. Did I think so no. They should not have made a false claim in their advertising. That is what false advertising IS. Or are you too stupid to comprehend that. Whats the difference if I say I'm giving away a new car for some stupid soda promotion and I don't follow through? Just because the cost of the Jet is considerably more then they shouldn't have to give away the prize? That is idiotic thinking. It comes down to this. If you don't want to honor your advertising claims then don't make them. End of story. And if they want to keep on doing it then the courts SHOULD rule against them. Maybe next time they'll do a better job of not bullshitting the consumer. And yes I'm a big "doofus" you fucking 3rd grader...and your a big poopyhead. I'm so offended
Yeah and give him a model of the Jacket they were giving away too right? If you offer the jet you should give the Jet a REAL jet... what if they used a model of a car when doing car promotions...they should give you the model instead of the promised REAL car?
Last I checked making false claimes in advertising is called "FALSE ADVERTISING". There is a reason for some laws ( No I don't agree with all of them ). It is to protect the average person from whatever/whoevever. There is regulation on false advertising to protect joe blow from Megacorp...If you have to give away junk to get people to drink your soda thats fine...but don't lie to people. And if you DO then suffer...and pay out 23 M for the jump jet shut your piehole and don't offer a damn jet again.
Who cares? I'm NOT from microsoft and I don't care for the company but he is right. Where I work I'm forced to use some NT servers because of the software we have to run on them. I for one would like to see the newest copy of NT Server a LOT more secure...whether I like the company or not. Will I love M$ with a more secure product...nope...it costs WAY too much and support is a joke and they still have to make the damn thing run for more than 7 days without crashing or doing weird shit but will I sleep a little better knowing that the product I DO have to use is a little more secure..hells yeah!
for $9.25 should receive a free copy since it was so bad. I personally think they made plently of money on the movie...what is the difference if a few hundred/(thousand) people have a crappy copy with bad sound and peoples heads poking into view from the row in front of the filmer...it isn't going to take any money away from the movie. If you see the bootleg and like it your going to see it anyway because you want the good sound and better visuals...if you don't like the bootleg you won't go see it. Think of it more like a "try it before you buy it" deal. After all the movie did blow...I'm sorry I spent MY money. Jar Jar must die
Does SMS allow you to controll a PC over the internet? I'm not familiar with its features. If not then there is a HUGE difference between BO2K and SMS Gary
I'm done posting but I wasn't spoon-fed life. I used to landscape and I used to do septic...I used to get into the shit holes and pull crap filters out and build leech fields I've seen the other side at $4.25/hr no less. Kind of hard hearing how good I have it from someone like you.
So I'm whiney because I work 75 hours a week,and most weekends. And make thousands less than you when you have to work the ocasional extra hours. No YOU take a look around and look at how easy YOU have it. I'm too worried about feeding my son and getting food on the table. And sometimes being able to spend time with him when I come home before 1am
Good for the nike workers. If my only skill was to make $70/pair sneakers I probably wouldn't bitch. But the fact that I have the skills and knowlege to make my company a heap of money entitles me to bitch about being over worked and underpaid. When you get out of High School and make your $5.25/hr at McDonalds you come back and post here. Asshole
No, nobody said I had to install it...nobody held a shotgun to my head. I don't use caldera...I use slackware. I like to be able to pick what I want to install. Even Winblows allows you to do THAT. As for people like you who just tout what others preach you make me sick. YES there are some that give Linux a bad name by defending it with flames etc. I am not one of them. Linux "got off the ground" by being an ALTERNATIVE ( look it up if its confusing to you ) not like everything else. Do I have a choice? Of course. Will I exercise it? Your damn skippy. Can I state my opinion? yep. Did I say I was FORCED to use this distro? nope. Nuff said
I love your installations options. Minimal Recommended Full install What about CUSTOM...how about I pick what I want to put on not ALL, SOME, or What we think is good for you. ( WORKSTATION AND SERVER ) what if I only want server stuff? Lets not compete by becoming what microsoft is...lets not lose the point along the way. I'd rather use PKGTOOL and get my system the way I want it. Gary
Aside from everything else you said 3 weeks is hardly an uptime to boast about. I'm sure a lot of other people can argue everything else you stated. And screw the beta I think all of you people yelling W2K this and W2K that should shut your pie hole until W2k ( which has been delayed for like 2 YEARS now ) actually gets to market and speaks for itself.
Doddering old bastard Ethernet is over 20 years old but you don't see anyone bitching about that do you? He is just pissed that he isn't the on the forefront of technology anymore and is reduced to writing shitty columns....
here here War is not about telling your enemy that we are going to bomb a building so they can evacuate first..its about crushing the other side...which we haven't done...
You have only had them for two months...wait until the "GLOW" from all the bandwidth wears off and you start encountering the true face of mediaone tech support....And if everything is fine 6 months from now you get in touch with me...I'll move...up here in southern NH northern MA they have their heads up their butt
