    Don't agree with you on changing pecking order in high school. Just growing big tits over the summer will greatly improve your rank. Or, for a guy, learning to play guitar and toss your head like Bieber will greatly improve standing.

    I guess I've been doing it wrong. I've been going by how much it sounds like they know more about things that I don't know about.

  3. Yeah, a fiction book totally represents what someone truly believes and would not edit for content, clarity and customer, amongst other things. Nope.

  8. What are "people guns"? Do they "fire" when pissing or ejaculating? Or are people the ammunition in a really large gun? Puts a new spin on "guns don't kill people, people do".

    Your sentence is hard to parse, but sounds like you're saying that the device is authorized by owner, which is not illegal. Not sure what point you were making that the GP didn't already make clear.

  10. I don't think you understand laws. You can't make laws for other countries. You're missing the point the crimes committed happened in the US where US laws were broken. Your incorrect analogy would somehow require not wearing the headscarf IN Saudi Arabia.

  15. Did you reply to the wrong post? Your reply makes no sense when talking about offsetting large investment in streaming provider server cost. The user is the downloader, not uploader nor the one transcoding the files. So I have no fucking clue what you're talking about.

    You can do what you want, just that you'll be held in contempt by Justice of the peace guy. In retrospect, it's a bunch of very bad sounding threats, but you'd probably cry foul to the judge that is supposed to penalize you for the contempt. Fuck gag laws that aren't related to actual fucking human safety. I understand protecting undercover spies with a gag rule, but you get your shit civilly "stolen" and your customers lose their minds with conspiracy theories because the guy can't just say, "hey, these fuckers just came in and took all our stuff". I feel that rage...

  19. Re: Maybe if you offered HBO Now in Canada on Cable Giants Step Up Piracy Battle By Interrogating Montreal Software Developer (www.cbc.ca) · · Score: 1

    There's no issue with the premium movie channels in Canada. We've had HBO Canada for years now. I don't do on demand, but I assume it's available with cable. Some argue you get better value with HBO Canada and the super channels than paying for 4 movie networks in the US. I've had Canadian and US satellite for over 20 years. The need to keep the US subscription is coming to a near end. There's still some content not yet in Canada, like USA network, but largely I'll watch Canadian Sat because I get east and west networks instead of West in the US.

  20. This is supposed to only be used in extreme cases where evidence is highly expected of being destroyed if the usual process is followed. You're supposed to present a shit load of evidence and meet three tests. It should look like a slam dunk on a criminal since there's no counter evidence presented. One is generally correct. One is half stretched and the 3rd is bald face lie. They should hardly be granted, but most lawyers are scum. It's fucking abused like a $2 Tiajuana crack whore.

    Good on him for hiring the right lawyer to get the Anton Pilar order thrown out. When it happens, you think, "how the fuck does this happen in Canada?" When this happened almost 2 decades ago, a high priced lawyer was brought in who was supposed to be a specialist in APO, but failed to get it overturned despite Bell lying in the APO request by leaving out contrary legal rulings (judge did not like that at all) and hiding the fact the business operated in the open. But the fucking lawyer saw Supreme Court case and didn't push for search overturn. I fucking hate lawyers as a result. Fuck Bell in the face, too. APO's are abused and used as a tool to crush the little guy. They should be stopped ASAP.

  22. Re: lol know nothings on Are App Sizes Out of Control? · · Score: 1

    App developers are not embedded developers. Not all embedded developers should call themselves that. Also, modern C compilers often get optimized to the same assembly as you'd hand code. At least from reading a thread where a guy went through 4 compiler optimizations and compared the output to see how optimized the options were. Conclusion: I don't really need to code in assembly anymore.
