Sorry to say buddy, but you already do. The government controls the lives of most people. Sure that may suck when you have to pay taxes, or you get a ticket for speeding, but on the other hand, that bored borderline sociopathic teenager from the rougher sides of town will actually think twice about breaking into your house, because the executive branch of the law will probably catch up with him and he will be in shit.
Problem is, we get the worst of both sides. We still have to pay taxes and speeding tickets, and the government still wants to seize our guns, downloaded movies, and pron, but doesn't have time/money to stop the bored borderline sociopathic teenager from the rougher sides of town.
Content on Facebook (and any other social networking site with privacy controls) isn't for public consumption - it's for consumption by those whom you've marked as friends
If it's shared among your 5,000 closest friends, I'd call that pretty public.:p
The people of the jury don't (or shouldn't) know anything about you, so probably have no "agenda". They do have biases, but it's doubtful that all 12 would have the same biases.
I want a financial management program that downloads directly from my bank. Gnucash doesn't do this. Quicken does. Last time I tried Wine, it did well to run Solitare, let alone Quicken. And even if it ran Quicken, why should I go to the trouble of running it on an emulator when I can run it on genuine Windows?
This is slightly OT, but on one of the sites I've been on, one of the women made a reference to her "girlfriend", and I naturally thought "lesbo". However, she later admitted that she was really a "he".

It wouldn't bother me if you got the info from Wikipedia - as long as I got to edit it first.
Meh! First we had people verbing nouns. Now we have them nouning adjectives.

The only thing within 5K of my house is the grocery store. Almost everything else is farther, including my job.
Then he should tighten it. I hate people who let their cases loose.
I was 27 once. But it was so long ago that I can't remember it.
OTOH, by the time you reach my age, there aren't that many totally new situations.
Because when you stop for the light, some idiot rear-ends you.
Does that mean Apple will go back to the PowerPC platform?
Actually, I have better privacy outdoors. When I'm indoors, I'm likely to be posting on various sites.
So, OLPC is switching because x86 costs a leg and an ARM?
QA process? What's a QA process?
if they would put police on the street. Apparently, spy cameras don't deter knife crime unless someone actually gets arrested for it.

With all the thousands of Debian packages, I sure hope someone wrote one named "you".
I don't need norton, even on THAT OS. I have no problems with Avast.
I don't know about the modern netbooks, but with some of the laptops I've had, they only do the sleeping part reliably. Waking is iffy.
IMO, Gillian's Isle was far better than Survivor, American Idol and Amazing Race combined. The old crap clearly beats the new crap.
I've been through parts of Illinois, near the Iowa border. Trust me, it IS a cornfield.
If anyone can find a good medium, Google can.
What's wrong with being schizofrenic? :) Although I do use "Cro Magnon" at a number of other sites, I also have quite a few other identities.
Also, I've seen some Cro Magnons that aren't me, so you can't really track me by my /. identity.
Good for you. Sadly, people like you are in the minority.
