Yes, and that's how I choose my presidents, based on pristine logic like yours. But have at it. You retards see problems when there are none, to justify voting for republocratic candiate A, and don't see them when they are there, to keep republocratic candidate B. The lunatics really are in charge of Asylum Earth, I just haven't figured out how I ended up here. Maybe because I keep hoping enough of you will wake up to truly change things?
Figures. I also ask the bush fanatics, and get lame-ass answers like this one. How does one let their brain rot enough to think like this. Have they surgically attached the puppet strings to your head and torso yet?
Why would you want either of them? If this was football, it would be somehow fathomable. But whatever. My sole, small consolation is that a fool like you is likely to suffer just as much as myself when one of these two boobs wins.
Doesn't really matter. Click drag a shortcut, open properties, and change the path it points to. It's even possible (if you know what you're doing) to pass args to rundll and the like and do some seriously funky shit.
Ah, the old "if it is so wrong, then complete these 9 impossible tasks!" challenge. I ignore laws that can't reasonably be changed. When I will wrongly be punished for ignoring these laws, I ignore them carefully and secretly.
Any congressmen or president that accepts money and/or gifts from corporate lobbyists, should be executed for treason. Show the unaltered surveillance footage of them accepting these gifts, and then show the firing squad footage. When this becomes reality, then we *might8 reasonably be asked to change laws. Of course, at that point... they probably wouldn't end up so twisted in the first place.
Situational? My ethics are quite solid. When someone starts filesharing what little I have created, I'm going to be quite flattered.
You see, ethics != laws. The few times they do, it's almost certainly either coincidence or an example of a really old law. Oh, and don't start comparing constitutions with me... even with the contortions mine has been twisted into, it still kicks yours squarely in the ass.
Oops, someone got ahold of the accounting folder that they give to the creative author. Go dig up the hidden accounting, the one that motivates studios from going bankrupt and never making more. With all these blockbuster movies that never make a profit, you'd think they'd have run out of money by now...
Don't kid yourself. If ever a $5 vial of nanobots can copy that Jaguar to the molecule, then "copying it" will be the same thing as stealing. The worst part? Bread and milk will also be intellectual property.
At some point, not only will the uber-rich own all real property, but even assuming you could get the resources yourself, the patterns will be property too.
Some practical advice: Polish up on your asskissing skills.
Don't kid yourself. This law was made for man, just not all of them. Most of us end up on the short end of the deal though...
This law can't be adapted. Things have gone too far. Here in ~25 years, they'll throw us a token decrease of 10 years, which will last a few decades. Then they'll go right back to what they were doing. The only power I have at the moment, is the power to choose not to be an asslicking apologist to the RIAA, and I choose to exercise that power.
Um, what makes you think I'm talking about a judgement? That was the legal fee. Should she have chosen not to get a lawyer? There is a big non-choice here, pay $5000 to a lawyer, or to a "industry association". Didn't even hear the results , I'm only assuming she wasn't found liable.
Breaking laws that were bought and paid for less than 10 years ago by amoral corporations for their sole benefit just isn't all that objectionable. Lower copyright back down to 20-40 years total, and I'll start to get a very strict "no excuses" sort of attitude toward infringement.
Yes, compare me to the wealthy that loot old people's pension funds. Of course it's illegal to violate copyright, congressmen were bribed repeatedly to make it so. I'm supposed to feel ashamed because I think those laws are less valid than some of the more fair, sensible ones? Fuck you.
All the ones personally important to me are. No way to know the others... but they don't hurt me nearly as much. And, supposing other people are more or less as cautious as myself, they'll do the same. It's all compartmentalized... those who don't follow that rule only hurt themselves.
Yes. A murder occurs, and there is only one stranger in our town this week. Let's arrest him, sentence him, punish him, and then we can have a trial...
Who cares if he might only have been acting guilty because he was in town cheating on his wife?
The one I remember, a girlfriend/boyfriend had broken up. The bf had took the computer with him, but the ISP bill was in her name. She couldn't track him down, so she paid the $5000, even though it's pretty reasonable to give her the benefit of the doubt that she isn't the guilty party.
Sure, they've nailed more than a few guilty... but they're not really concerned with guilt/innocence. Even when they cause collateral damage, they don't really give a shit...
Fuck you asswipe. I keep pushing it, because by nature it can be invitation only. I can't put up an asshattish sourceforge page and let every loser join at will.
As for it being a network, it's more of one than any of the alternatives. Let's see:
Freenet: 1) Takes a day or two for the cache to fill. 2) Impossible to publish anything on it 3) Within 18 hours, had 200 java processes running on my machine 4) I see kiddy porn links on the front page of all the "major indexes" 5) At best, web-like and email-like capability. Of course, good luck getting frost to work
Mine: 1) Static IP (IPv4 and IPv6) 2) If someone is narced, only they're in trouble. You're in another country, and since you know youre not a pervert, even if they try to railroad you, fighting extradition shouldn't be too tough. Not to mention, they don't want to extradite you, you won't remember some VPN config (the other end of the tunnel's IP address) 8 months ago.. they want an international search warrant, or to confiscate your router. 3) It's invitation only. Only invite those you personally trust, since they're the only ones that can hurt you. 4) It's a true routed IPv4/IPv6 network... run anything you want that works on the internet. 5) It's a chance for you, the little guy, to experiment with running anything you want. Email server? DNS? Anything goes.
But please, just mod me down without reading it, like the asshat commands.
Assuming its the latest MP3s. I have been known to trade things that are difficult to find, or so out of date that it's no longer sellable. For example, apple II software. Morally, I'm certainly not violating the spirit of the law, and it's arguable even about the letter of the law. The oldest a2 software will be 28 years old very soon, at which point it would have expired had corporations not bribed congress for extensions. I collect vintage computers, and some are inoperable because it's impossible to find software... and it's not like I can buy/license it either. If I find a copy, I'm making it available to others, copyright be damned.
A friend prefers Doctor Who episodes, some of which are lost forever. Others still exist only because people violated copyright.
When they start rolling it back to a reasonable 30-40 years, then I'll consider abiding it no matter what. Til then, fuck them all.
These icelanders hadn't been using a network like my own. Anonymity, each link to another person crossing an international border... it wouldn't have been infiltrated nearly as easily. Oh well...
Giving back, or buying something important to him on layaway?
The guy just barely making it who gives $20 to the Salvation Army ringer at christmas time is giving up more than Soros. Let me know when he gives so much that he only has a few thousand left, and I'll reconsider.
Hardly that, I'm rather careful when I make a statement like this.
You know those "psychics" that do the entire TV test for Amazing Randi's million dollar prize, and always lose? And I can't speak for you, but I have one or two crackpot friends that always try to claim that the psychics were nervous, or that Randi cheated them, etc. Not even that "these weren't real psychics but real psychics exist"... just that something interfered with them. It never occurs to them that these "psychics" were anything other than shucksters hoping to make enough correct guesses to win a million bucks.
What does this have to do with my previous statement? 2 things. First, both involve scam artists (psychics vs. politicians). Second, in both cases I can say with clear conscience and some enthusiasm... Anyone that thinks otherwise is probably a fool.
So, before you come to check me on something that I said very carefully in one of the few situations I would be compelled to say such a thing, turn on your brain and realize a person can make a statement like this once in awhile without talking out of their ass. Oh, and try to rebutt the real statement that I made, or is only my conclusion faulty?

Death by firing squad for treason, for all congressmen who accept gifts from corporate entities.
Figures. I also ask the bush fanatics, and get lame-ass answers like this one. How does one let their brain rot enough to think like this. Have they surgically attached the puppet strings to your head and torso yet?

I agree with most of what you say. But what about Kerry? This guy puts himself in for purple hearts for what amount to scratches.
They're both lousy bums, and they're the only choice we're being given. So, which is it, Kodos or Kang?
Ah, the old "if it is so wrong, then complete these 9 impossible tasks!" challenge. I ignore laws that can't reasonably be changed. When I will wrongly be punished for ignoring these laws, I ignore them carefully and secretly.

Then he can turn off sigs, and put me down as a foe.
Besides. Take a look at who called names first.
I've heard this is the case with new zealand, and to an extent, australia also. Oh well. That's about as close to a good excuse as they have, though.

Helpless to afford the $5000+ in legal defense fees they will pay even if found not liable.
These icelanders hadn't been using a network like my own. Anonymity, each link to another person crossing an international border... it wouldn't have been infiltrated nearly as easily. Oh well...
$2 bill is still in production, $1000 hasn't been for decades.
They'll never replace the $1 bill with a coin, especially if they make the damn thing the same size as the quarter.
I've done the same thing. Wish that Taco would fix some of the damn threading issues...
It's a shame that guy didn't see the 25 mile long antenna that was hidden pointing at his desk, he could have avoided the fatal rare blood disease.
