wow. what great progress for america. i'll never pass a credit check, i owe hospitals & drs about 70k+, and it is gonna get a lot more soon (i have ongoing issues).
add in that employers will soon have to run your name against the 'no work' list (brought to you by the ppl who gave us the 'No fly' list) and easily 20-30% of this country will be denied the oppertunity to earn.
great to see this progress we are making here in the 21st century....
the fact that game money can be sold for real money, there is a tangeble loss of money.
pretty soon this is going to start hitting the courts. items in online games all have an exchange rate with real currency. fwiw: i played star wars galaxies from launch till last year. when i quit, i sold my account for 400$. that's real money, and you can bet if someone tried to jack me for my space dollars, i'd sue / get the law, whatever.
going to be really funy though when this starts becoming common law fodder.
exactly. i take morphine 2x a day, for the last year or so, and i actually have a life again. before that, i was stuck in bed or in a chair all day every day.
so i get sick and moody if i don't take it. try missing a dose of your prozack and see what happens.
ill take being dope sick over constant pain every day.
clinton was impeached for lieing about a bj. now that bush has violated the rights of every person in gitmo, broken the law to spy on everyone, and in general ignored laws that displease him, can we impeach this pos now too?
the goverment is corrupt. we need to format and start over with a fresh install.
i support a death penalty for gov corruption / incompetance. all public servants should face 2x the penalty of a normal citizen. im tired of assholes who get elected just to increase their wealth.
when the 2nd revolution comes, there will be a few changes. 1) police will face 2x the punishment a citizen does for every crime. police get 0 tolerence for bending the rules. they enforce the law by example as much as anything else. 2) the basic unit of society is the citizen. goverment exists to serve that citizen. goverment has no rights to tell a citizen what to do with his / her body. you can take what you want, you can kill yourself, sell yourself, whatever. so long as you do not infringe on another citizen. 3) the highest crime shall be corruption / incompetence in a public servant. this will be punishable by death in a painfull and public mannor so as to be a deterrant. if you want to serve the citizens, then serve.
within 10 years, the idea of gov corruption, and lawbreaking would be a faint idea.
it can't happen soon enough. the current gov is corrupt and needs to be formatted.
won't be long before you have to show your internal passports at the road checkpoints. the no work list is coming soon brought to you by the same ppl who gave you the no fly and no transfer money list. but you upstanding citizens will have your universal id card to prove who you are.
but don't start protesting too much, or your name goes on the list. then you can say bye bye to that house car and life. isn't facism cool? tony the tyrant says 'It's GRRRRRRRREAT!
record companies are still ripping off the artist? wow, in related news, the sun came up today.
which is why any artist with a small clue is selling thier own product online. weird al is mainstream enough he should be moving cd's from his website and put them on itunes himself.
duh.
i feel no sympathy for any artist that continues to bend over and offer the record companies a running start.
that's why you say fuck the big shows, and go to your local bar and catch local music, or the guys who don't sell out the big ticketbastards arenas.
but then, im in austin, so it's a lot easier here. but no matter what, get out and support your local bands. tickets are cheaper, hell you might even get to fire one up with the local guys.
dolphins are evil. one day they will attack en mass and try to take over. i know you think im crazy, but it _WILL_ happen. porposes are just their lacky servants. whales can't be trusted either.
smedly is an idiot. the game is going down in flames. the only good thing you will read anywhere are by soe employees posting them. jedi is broken, you must buy the new expansion to level, there are no quests for characters > level 30.
the new targeting system is a crack monkey's idea of a joke. read the forums and see the death of swg. i was there from launch in 03, and canceled my accounts today.
swg is rotating at increased velocity around the water disposal oriface... my question for smed-head:
why are existing players being shortchanged in the Next Great Experiment? no level based rewards unless you regrind your template. swg has always been one of the grind = content games. why is this hated model being pushed again.
and do you think it is acceptable that jedi are only viable if they discard the saber and use a ranged weapon? is master jedi rifleman your vision? because that's what will happen..

this is a great article showing just how pure capitalism is nothing but rape & pillage.
this kind of crap is why america is heading down hill fast.
there will either be a hack / crack for win32 or someone will just write a nice win32 client that ignores all that moronic drm.
ms will do nothing but lose share over this.
they should be killing atlantis. what a fetid pile of poo that is...
:)
but no, they kill the good one and keep the crap. oh well, i think mansquito is on again

the system is broken from the top down. the only solution is to format the goverment and reinstall. this image is corrupt.
they would pull an apple and say, ok, we'll take our windows and go. im sure the eu would crap a fat one if that were to happen.
and i would laugh my ass off. can you imagine the chaos?

that's just stupid.
not even clever. ooo, i glued a hard drive to a poster.
the good thing about google, is they don't white out area 51. see http://www.livejournal.com/community/the_unexplain ed/37956.html#cutid1 here for more
here's a nice what if:
i record something and copyright it.
i then ul that file somewhere.
i now have a nice entry tool.
alternate:
record & c/r.
upload the file to someone with a public share
attack that person's comp
look at it this way, now you have a way to take down ppl you hate.
