  1. Re:bullshit on Hatemongering Becoming A Problem On Orkut · · Score: 1

    ok, obviously you don't understand me.

    he/she thinks that this lifestyle is defined as sin in the bible? he/she writes and talks about it thats wrong because they might end up in hell.

    sin? hell? yeah, so what? his/her argumentations are based on a religious set of beliefs and personal views which can't be used to define whats right or wrong. hate and intolerance live and grow on prejudices and dogmatic viewpoints.

  2. Re:bullshit on Hatemongering Becoming A Problem On Orkut · · Score: 1

    baseless? let me cite myself:


    it is wrong to use any religious text to promote hate and intolerance based on the argumentation that it is written there and must be true and the way to go.


    this actually explains what I am thinking about guys using religion (or any other ideology) to blame others for their choice of lifestyle.

    Is it really "discrimination" or "hatred" if I dare to save them from the hell fire by telling them that what they do is wrong?


    Yes. I can't support this argument.

    As I said, this is latent intolerant and discriminating.

    nuff said.

  6. Re:Parent is flamebait and trollish. Mod down. on LokiTorrent Shut Down · · Score: 1

    I watch alternative and european films.

    the new copyright law in germany is just as bad as the DMCA I would say (max. 5 year prison for copyright infringement).

    I quite addicted to movies and I go to the cinema and I hate to see those german MPAA-clone advertisements and commercials called copyright infringers are criminals. in one of the commercials they have two hard-core prisoners watching two young adults as they are sent to their cells while they talk about who of them gets their ass first. the message, as I understand it: if you are a copyright infringer it ok if you get raped in prison.

    just sick.

  13. stop! on RSS/RDF/Atom Aggregation in KDE 3.4 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    please stop to import more and more third-party kde apps into official kde packages.

    furthermore, stop to keep dupe apps:

    - Noatun / Kaboodle
    - KPaint / KolourPaint

    almost the same GUI and they serve the same purpose. ignoring the little differences now.

    I don't use KDE as my main desktop, but I have KDE installed because I use one or two apps
    and dupe apps are just useless. remove one of them and stick to the most promising.

    I messed around with Gambas and I have some VB experience, but I never enjoyed programming with
    VB. Gambas may have some nice concepts and I could write simple apps with it, but its BASIC syntax scares me.

    I wrote my first programs with BASIC, but with growing age and more exprience with other
    languages I couldn't see any advantage in using BASIC-like languages. I think that I prefer languages with a C-like syntax.

    hmm. under-paid cashiers/clerks working countless hours smiling around with a mental vaccum.

    might have several reasons.

    this is like taking the expensive bananas and
    selecting the cheap ones for checkout (you get a printed label with the product and its weight).
    I'm not sure how many cashiers realize this type of cheating when you checkout.

  21. Re:$30K? on LokiTorrent vs. MPAA · · Score: 1

    I agree.

    I used P2P and BitTorrent to get legally questionable content. I would never pay for pirated material and I would never support a legal defense fund of some P2P/Bittorrent site.

    I'm not buying CDs anymore. I tried iTunes - but its DRM-shit doesn't work for me because neither Mac or Windows is my main OS. All other online music shops don't work for me either because they use some Windows Media DRM-crippled stuff as well. I don't feel the need to have the latest CD by some artist I like. So I get my music from online radios.

    I go to see a movie once per week. Its called a Sneak Preview with a reduced price. You get to see an un-released movie a couple of days/weeks or even months in advance. Our judgement of the movie the week before even has some influence on the movie distributors. Sometimes I feel that I finance infrequent movie-goers. I would never ever download or watch some Telesync/Cam release. I don't understand those idiots that prepare them or watch them just because they want to see it in advance and/or without paying for the movie ticket.

    I download US-TV-shows, because a) I don't get the US-stations/networks that air them b) the dubbed episodes are shown months later over here.

    Software is something different. If I have to use some closed-source app to get something done for my studies I have no problem of downloading that app.

    Yes, the website explaining how it was done is show-and-tell. I don't care how many bikes have been hacked.

    stealing is if someone collects a bike/the bikes and doesn't return them.
