Zimmerman may yet be charged and tried as Scott was. It would not surprise me if he is (nor if he is acquitted). Of course, this will be AFTER he has been tried, and hung, by the national media and the likes of Maxine Waters ("HATE CRIME!").
...Show me where this happens with races reversed. Race absolutely changes how the law is applied. This has been statistically proven over and over and over and over.
I guess you are right. Look up Roderick Scott from Greece, NY in 2009, a black man who, under somewhat similar circumstances, was acquitted of first degree manslaughter after shooting and killing a young white male (who was where he did NOT belong in the middle of the night, apparently breaking into cars).
Where were Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton weighing in and making hay on that one? Where were the marching crowds wearing hoodies and chanting "We are Christoper Cervini"? Did Spike Lee ever-so-helpfully tweet the wrong address and send a mob to the wrong house, terrorizing people who had no connection to the case other than an unfortunate coincidence of last name?
The national media didn't even carry the Scott-Cervini story, let alone work overtime to twist it around as they have here.
Cherokee Indian on my mother's side. Provable through well traced genealogy, but I wouldn't waste my time proving it to you as I have no need. On my father's side, German immigrant in the early 1900's - legal, registered etc. as the records I've viewed (again through genealogical research) tell me so. Nothing illegal about it. To reiterate... my focus was on the word "illegal". used extensively throughout this discussion and, I thought, well understood as to its meaning and relevance. Your focus? Apparently only on being smarmy.
Better still, when the illegals show up to claim their latest 'benefit' of being in this country (their shiny new driver's license) grab 'em and ship 'em home. For Pete's sake, why call them illegals if we're not going to treat them as such?
Your second statement contradicts your first.... The fact that someone could "grab the info", essentially stealing/replicating your key without your knowing it is gone, makes this problem clearly different, and more dangerous, than a physical metal key, the absence of which is conspicuous.
Write a simple device driver extension to diddle with the hardware clock. Doing so at random intervals, with random-like changes (never straying too far from "real-time"), should defeat this fingerprinting completely without rendering one's local clock time knowledge useless.
Kind of like swamping a radar detector with a noise signal...
I picked up an off-the shelf USB 1.1 hub from D-Link that I used for years. I just also snagged a cheap USB 2.0 hub from Sam's Club that also works with my PowerBook's USB 2.0 ports. For the most part, hubs are hubs.
Lucky you! When I was a kid, my parents were too poor to buy a pair of walkie talkies, so they bought just one. My brother and I took turns talking to each other on it. Of course, the range wasn't too good.
Ahem. Last time I checked Ford didn't make Caddys. So I doubt they'd have any qualms about your taking one apart and selling the plans. They might even encourage it!
Or... you could learn the difference between "paranoid dilutions" which means exactly shinola, or "paranoid delusions", which has a real meaning (which I'll guess you intended), though I'm still not sure how "insightful" or additive it would be even if used correctly.
This is unlikely to work. I'm already receiving spam at my work e-mail address. Many of these spams start with either my first name or both first and last names. Exactly where they got it I don't know as I am usually pretty careful about newsgroup postings (obfuscated e-mail addresses) and using 'disposables' for certain Web site required sign-ups.
Me? I like the fight fire with fire approach described a few posts above. Keep free speech flowing, but make abusers pay by putting back-pressure on their ISPs.

Samuel L. Jones???
I'm gonna guess you meant Samuel L. Jackson.
I am tired of these m________ing snakes on this m________ing plane!

Every reference to that quote I've ever read attributes it to Von Neumann. (But it's spot on, regardless.)
I'm surprised nobody posted this one yet:
As John von Neumann joked, "Anyone who considers arithmetical methods of producing random digits is, of course, in a state of sin."

Um. Wouldn't that be a period 'halving'?
Development and change in general is undergoing a period doubling.
Actually, if you can't work on a file because someone else has it 'locked', that would seem to me to be synchronous collaboration.
And they're coming out with a porn version, "The Loin King".
Nope. It's so that the hearing impaired can enjoy them, too.
"You tell everybody. Listen to me, Hatcher. You've gotta tell them! Soylent Green is people! We've gotta stop them somehow!"
There is no "team" in "I".

Agreed. If the best technology always won out, we'd be using OS/2, have BetaMax rather than VHS, and all be driving Tucker automobiles!
Actually, I prefer 6 of 9!

Can you hear me now?
Microsoft AntiSpyware... Isn't that somewhat like Military Intelligence?

There's no accounting for/disputing taste...
