Ya know what? I drive my car alone. Just me. To and from work. What in the world do I need a four-door car for? All I ever use is the driver's door. I think the next time I buy a car, I will ask Toyota whether it would be easier to start without the sedan, both in terms of development and hardware cost.
You are a fucking moron. So what happens when a loser objects? He attempts to force his will regardless of the "game over" staring at him in the screen. Jeez, as it is, people cheat in any way possible when playing games. What's to stop the "players" you describe from killing each other before playtime to gain a competetive advantage? Gee, it might even escalate into the old-fashioned kind of warfare.
When we are confronted with people who don't even recognize the value of free speech and idea exchange, the value of allowing citizens to direct the course of their own lives, or the value of maintaining their reputation when confronted with obvious propagandistic lies, WTF makes you think they will sign, much less abide by, your proposed treaty? Keep in mind the one thing they say that you can bank on is that they want us dead.
These people NEED to be stopped, not negotiated with.
...I had my reservations about Freenet because I was concerned that the content that got distributed could be bad stuff that I wouldn't want on my drive regardless of encryption or the legal nature of the network, like say child porn (ugh). But if Freenet was used for IP addresses and maybe file indexes (not the content)...
So you are OK with some information on your drive that requires executing an algorithm to convert to "content," (e.g. child porn) But even now, Freenet does not put "content" on your drive; it puts information that requires executing an algorithm to convert to content, (e.g. child porn).
The USPTO makes patents publicly available. They are in written form, but that's still speech. The figures? still speech. Hell, translate them to SVG and read the damn file out loud if you want to be a stickler.
If I stand on a street corner and read a patent out loud, can anyone who hears freely implement that speech?
The absolutist, "no matter how they twist it, it's still speech" thing has limits.
I happen to be able to recite arbitrarily long subsequences of the digits of pi. The trouble is, I don't know the index of the beginning of the sequence.
Answer me this: have any "Nation of Islam" members been fingered in any terror roundups? No? Why? They are not the Islamo-fascists we are looking for. Your usage of the word "fascist" to describe a member body of the FREE PRESS in this country would be laughable, if it weren't for the fact that that kind of reckless use of language dilutes the real meaning of such words.
For instance, I could call you a "fuckwad" right now, but I'll save that for the true fuckwads. You are merely a "dimwit."
For this and other reasons, lawyers must be required to act entirely on their client's best interests, not on their personal judgement of the client's guilt or innocense.
What if it is in their client's best interest to be taken off of the streets?
You, a sociologist: "Nevertheless, I could comprehend almost everything"
Wolfram, a soon to be very famous scientist: "And if people actually start to understand what I've figured out, then I think I'll be forced to be a very famous scientist."
I love the fact that his own PR is all Emperor's-New-Clothes quality logic.
Meaning is an illusion. All things are meaningless.
I sincerely love hearing that from people like you. The fact that you would take the time and energy to say such a thing, and not simply kill yourself is a testament to your hypocrisy. Do those of us who find that life is meaningful a favor and cash in right away.
I think what's going on is more like this: mathematicians are especially bad at empirical testing, and at taking empiracle evidence seriously, therefore they more easily delude themselves into believing that they understand it all.

Love the sig. Check out my patent, which I will grant you royalty-free rights to use, and together we will karmakaze the galaxy as father and son!

Nah, it works great for those of us who use the same password for everything, and just don't need the extra security anyway.

Yeah, I was going to ask my lawyer about this, but he wouldn't know either, not being a law student.
Fascinating how insular the life of students is.
First they came for the pop-under ads, and I did nothing because I was not a fan of pop-under ads....

Wow. These guys sound just like leftists.
And after review by their peers, they can announce their "convictions." What's the problem here?
