  1. Re:May I be the first to say on Julian Assange To Be Extradited To Sweden · · Score: 1

    You are not a lawyer. Neither are you probably a swede so stop trying to debate the case. He was charged and should answer said charges not hide like a coward.

    So, before you attempt to troll how about a big mug 'o STFU.

  2. May I be the first to say on Julian Assange To Be Extradited To Sweden · · Score: 1, Troll

    Good, and good riddance. He allegedly did something against the law in the country he was in and needs to go face that charge otherwise he is simply a coward. This has nothing to do with some conspiracy theory that the US is out to get him because of his job, trust me if the US charges wiki leaks or him with something they will TRY and extradite him no matter where he resides jail is just a plus.

    This all smells of a lawer smoke screen to get pity on an possible sexual deviant / predator and certainly a coward afraid to face his charges, either way not exactly a role model.

     

  3. Re:Old news ... on FBI Releases File On the Anarchist Cookbook · · Score: 1

    Yes sir!
      Proudly next to my copy of "Steal This Urine Test", "On the road", "Dharma Bums", "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Tests", and other Beat / Hippy / Yippies literature. I found though a lot of the material of "steal this book" to be out dated and no longer relevant even when I read it over twenty years ago. It was more to read as a period piece for me then anything else.

    No I did not steal either of Hoffman's books. I would still recommend reading them if your interested in the 60's counter culture.

    Assault on a Police officer with a door knob. Yeah you read that right told Miami police to pound sand at 3 AM after they woke me up talking about a dead body smell (was the refig in the apartment next door which was off and had gone bad) with no warrant. Closed the door and got my ass handed to me when the door knob hit the officer and he claimed I assulted him. Spent the night / next day in MIA prison waiting for bail facing 7 years for assault, & resisting arrest.

    fuck miami, and 'the man' that live there! sorry had to be said.

    "....Your peronsonal need become corp needs."

    To an extent yes but, what is acceptable as a Corp expense or write off is watched and you can be sure while abused at times, is enforced.

    "How can you embezzle from your company if you are the company?"

    Very simple take company money for something personal or not directly related to the company. This is first year business school material. If your company is public you get hung by your shareholders, if your a private co i.e. your the company get hung by the IRS. I'd take the shareholders I think.

    btw companies do pay tax on income that is retained. Which even in the states with no loopholes means that small businesses often pay little or no taxes, but large companies with deep coffers are not excempt.

    I have a 3gs from beginning of this year so I'm not eligible, but my wife is and has been waiting for a few months for the 4g to come out.

    It now looks like she is going to either wait for apple to issue a fix or go with an android phone. If anything I know she is not alone and I'd guess she probably represents 2 or 3% of potential customers that are now not going to buy this device.

  18. same bullshit as the airlines on Paperless Tickets Flourish Despite 'Grandma Problem' · · Score: 1

    Airlines have been doing the same thing for years now which pisses me off to no end. Not that there is a scalper problem with flights but good luck if you can't use a reservation because you can't refund it or transfer it to someone else, and they haven't been tickets since the early 80's.

    Basically they did it to lock in customers, prevent 2rd party sales, and keep customers from being able to get money back. Happened before and I'm sure nothing is going to stop ticket master from making it happen again I'm afraid.

    Also this means everyone should be saving their SHSH blobs via Surak or using umbrella. I personally have them saved with both just in case. Last time Suraks servers dumped and I lost my 3.1.2 backup.

    Remember 4.0 means Apple won't sign for 3.1.3 releases, so in order to roll back or jailbrake you need a tss server, or to rely on Suraks server if you need to restore.

    High Tech Pool Hopping who would have thought.. We did the same thing back in the 80's except with no internets we went to the area of local townhouses that had about 10 pools and preceded to jump the fence on one or two to take a midnight dip. Its amazing none of us drowned or broke our necks trying to scale the fence after 1/2 a dozen beers.
