    Ahhh I get it.. you are proposing an alternative marketing model..

    Someone send N Korea a copy of War Games (Please purchase it legally so that the RIAA doesn't start a Nuclear War)..

    Does anyone else wonder why they put clothes on her? Is clothes part of her anatomy? Noooooo.. So you have to look at clothes instead of the human body. Typical sex hangups..

  4. Re:"Google, of course, recommends Chrome." on Browsing the Body · · Score: 2

    These statements are misleading..

    1. Opera doesn't have support for WebGL. I just installed their Opera 11 and it's not mentioned.
    2. Opera works very well and I use it daily as my primary browser. Has many new features and many older features that have been adopted by other browsers.
    3. Opera was doing scaling graphics back in the 90's when everyone else was stuck with WYSIWYG..

    Not getting into a browser war here. I use Opera, Firefox, Chrome, and IE in various sistuations. Just countering your spread of mis-truths..

  5. Google chrome beta install workaround on Browsing the Body · · Score: 1

    On Ubuntu 10.10 I had to uninstall Google-Chrome (not to be mixed up with Chrome) and THEN install the Google-Chrome Beta. Then it worked fine. If you want to check this, install the Chrome Beta, then go to Synaptic and look for google-chrome. You will see the standard version is still installed and the beta is not. At least this his my experience as of this morning..

  6. Rephrased.. on Today's WikiLeaks News · · Score: 1

    I probably didn't say this in the best of ways.. a failing.. but basically.. I hate the attitude of do what you are told to do and be a good soldier with no questions in your mind about your actions in regards to your morals. I realize that sometimes this has to be the way the world is but I still hate the rationalization that people make..

  7. Re:Bradley Manning on Today's WikiLeaks News · · Score: 0

    Yes and when Nazi Germany was rounding up Jews and their law was that you should report your neighbors and turn them in and as a soldier you were to shoot them, rape them, or stuff them in an oven because your superiors told you too. Well, you can call it "entering a trust compact" or you can call it "fear of reprisal if you refuse". My point is that if you blindly follow your formula for trust then you empower abuse in the system. That is what secrecy does for them. Permit abuse and injustices in direct conflict with our constitution and stated morals. Whistle blowers are a necessity to a free society. Ideally as would freedom of information, as in everything. He didn't benefit from this actions in anyway. He did't profit from it. Thus his intention must of been meant for the good of our society. Not to hurt it but to enlighten it..

  11. Re:Stop using risk as basis of argument on A Nude Awakening — the TSA and Privacy · · Score: 1

    I don't think people object to security. It's common sense.. What they object to is "stupid" security. I watched a video on youtube of a german guy going thnrough a rapidscan and then aftewards pulling out of his clothes, a detonator, explosive, timer, and a battery.. No one caught it.. Those "smart" terrorist "study" now to get things past airport security. They know how.. They have brains and they use them. So to put in place "stupid" security that doesn't work. It's well... stupid!

    If this is the case, then why are they getting away with it?

  18. Re:These documents should not be released. on WikiLeaks Under Denial of Service Attack · · Score: 1

    Following the anology.. maybe your wife would re-evaluate your marriage if she knew what you were saying about her to others? The government has become too secretive and too "we know what is best for you, so shut up or we will charge you". It will be interesting to see if there is any meat to these leaks..

  19. Re:These documents should not be released. on WikiLeaks Under Denial of Service Attack · · Score: 1

    perhaps some people's view of the world is more than "my country" against "your country". If the human race get's its shit together and works for humanity rather than their little piece of the pie, then we have a much greater chance of surviving a world that is being stripped of resources..

  22. The new terrorist on TSA Saw My Junk, Missed Razor Blades, Says Adam Savage · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It seems like the TSA has become the new Terrorist. If you do anything except what you are told, dispute anything, video capture anything, make any noise, try to back out, it doesn't matter, they will charge you and arrest you. The airports have become a police state. All this effort, when it's obvious it's not working and that if "real" terrorist wanted too, they could hit some other target much easier.. This is just a shame..

    What if down the road, you do not have an ISP to switch too, or they all really just work for the same parent company or follow the same money making policy. What if I come out with a fantasic new web site and can't compete due to throttling unless I make a special deal with them.. There is a problem..
