You realize that some references actually diminish your argument? once I saw the token [newsmax.com] I just stopped reading. That site is nothing more then insane right-wing propaganda. If you take anything you read there seriously, I feel sorry for you.
The fact that you use the word "liberal" as some kind of insult only proves your idiocy.
I mean, I'd have to find an image that 'represents' the gallery, crop it, save it, upload it, etc. It would increase the amount of work per link by 10 or something. I could write software to automate it, but it would still be a pain, especially for remote moderators.
I don't know if you're uneducated or just a jackass. Hitler may have come to power through the machinations of 'democracy' but the Nazis hardly stuck with it. And it's not like they started killing Jews the first day they were in power. It took a long time under Nazi autocratic rule before the atrocities really started piling up
Well, as far as internet streaming goes, that's out of the question. But 24gbps isn't unachievable with today's broadcast techniques. There's also a question of how compression is done.
A cluster of ASICs could be used to decode the signal.
Now that is a very narrow world view. While I agree that slavery is wrong, that is very much a western philosophy. Most of Asia believes very strongly in a class-based system in which it is morally wrong to try to be anything other what you were born to be. This is, in our view, border-line slavery, but for them, it is the right thing to do.
An idiot is someone who speaks with authority on a topic he or she knows nothing about.
You are an idiot.
Lower caste people in India today may believe that reaching outside of their caste is morally wrong, or they may not. But they are still free to do it In fact, Indian university caste-quotas similar to affirmative action in the us, and Lower castes are firmly represented in government. How many slaves were there in congress in 1822?
And outside of the Hindus of India, no where else in Asia, certainly not post-communist china or Capitalism obsessed Japan, Taiwan, South Korea and so on. You basically have no fucking clue what you're talking about beyond a simplistic misunderstanding. The caste system is wrong, and bad, and it may have been like slavery hundreds of years ago but it is not today.
Free-love? Well, if you don't find it morally objectionable to sit idly by while people live lifestyles that will lead to an early death from AIDS, then okay, its not morally wrong.
Ever heard of condoms?
Atheism? Well, the same reasoning can apply. If you believe, as I do, that people who do not believe in God and His son Jesus Christ are going to spend an eternity in hell, would it not be morally irresponsible for me to not at least try to warn others of the impending danger even if they won't agree with the problem
There's nothing wrong with warning people, (although it can be very annoying) but there is definitely something wrong with trying to control them if the only ones they can hurt are themselves.
Fortunately, Uganda did not take this view point, and through the teaching of abstinence, has turned from having one of the highest rates of infection in Africa to having one of the smallest."
Sex education programmes in schools and on the
radio focused on the need to negotiate safe sex and encouraged teenagers to delay the age at which they first have sex. Since 1990, a USAID-funded scheme to increase condom use through social marketing of condoms has boosted condom use from 7% nationwide to over 50% in rural areas and over 85% in urban areas. The social marketing scheme involved sales of condoms at subsidized prices or free distribution by both the government and the private sector. The scheme was also backed up by health education and other public information. Meanwhile more teenage girls reported condom use than any other age group -- a trend reflected in falling infection rates among 13-19 year old girls in Masaka, in rural Uganda. And among 15-year-old boys and girls, the proportion who had never had sex rose from about 20% to 50% between 1989 and 1995."
While putting off virginity loss was one aspect of the campaign, it was accompanied by a huge increase in condom use. Up to 85% in cities.
And don't even be trying to deny it..int domains are hard core.
What always amazed me was those hosting providers who won't allow adult content, until I figured out their racket. Basically they know a lot of people will buy bandwidth for projects and whatnot, and then never actually use it (I've certainly done that). But with adult content, everyone knows it's not that hard find people to give it too, and so the system breaks down (at least for the really cheap providers)
One person caught AIDS, and I think maybe 4 or 5 other people ended up catching it as well.
But what you forgot to mention was that the entire porn industry stopped production for a month, so that every single actor and actress could be tested and re-tested to make sure that the "outbreak" was contained. There were only about 40 people who could possibly have been infected in the time before that guy got back from brazil and production stopped. And it's actually very unlikely to get aids from a single sexual encounter.
AIDS rates in porn are much lower then for the general population. It doesn't make any sense for the DOJ to be going after these people over that, particularly given that the DOJ's announcement hit before this the outbreak.
The foundations that have made America what it was are rapidly disappearing.
Oh puh-leez. The foundation of America was built on human slavery and the massacre of indigenous peoples. On Jim Crow and cold war hysteria There were a lot of high-minded ideals about the "equality of men" dancing in the minds of the radicals of the 1770s (and don't think for a moment that that's not what the founding fathers were at the time), but it took a long time to get it implemented.
The morality of America today, like everything else in the world, is better now then it ever has been in the past. Only the sickest person could honestly say that homosexuality or free-love or atheism or hip-hop or whatever is more morally wrong then the enslavement of man.
I'm not trying to denigrate the United States. We have done great things, but that doesn't mean we should whitewash our past. We've made a lot of progress, and there is still much father to go.
Now granted, this is an extreme example, but once you start down the slippery slope of justification and compromise, where does one draw the line? Think about it.
Wherever you want. If you think X, Y, and Z are 'bad' then you simply ban those things, and nothing else. That's why DUI is illegal, and drinking is not.
Also Nazi Germany was definitely not a democracy. There was no 'slippery slope' of jew-killin' that lead to the holocaust. Everyone with decision making power wanted to get rid fo them.
But who are you to say whats 'right' and what's 'wrong'. I'm sure there's some concoction of drugs that would make you want to spend all day jerking off to porn if you took it. I don't think something to remove sexuality is much better.
I don't make any money off the "daily pr0n" links to galleries, only the "paysites" links at the bottom of the page.
A couple of pay sites have "hosted galleries" that people can submit to TGPs without doing the work themselves, and I've linked to some of those with my own ID. However, I've never made a dime off of it. Autopr0n is not a big website. Analog doesn't track unique users, but his to the main page (rather then the framing and redirect pages) total about 3-4k per day. Autopr0n makes about $50-$60 a month, which is just barely enough to cover the bandwidth bill.
I'm hoping that my traffic will go up (The current connection can deal with 10-20 times the traffic before I need to upgrade, which could mean $500-$1000 a month), and since I've moved the server, it has been steadily from about 2000 hits per day after the downtime to 4000 today. It used to be I could only handle 3k hits per day, or 200mb. Now I'm serving out 4k hits/day and about 255mb/day.
So yeah, It's not making much money now, but I'm hopping that it'll grow fast enough to be able to pay for rent and food after I graduate in August:P
Like anything teh intarweb else the online porn world is full of a lot of crap. If you're willing to pay for good stuff, I'd recommend the hegre archives or the vulis archives. (yes, those are affiliate links:P).
As far as free stuff, a lot of it can suck. Especially if you just google "porn" or something. The good stuff is out there, you just need to know where to look. But many in this "community" (if you want to call it that) seem to think of traffic as a commodity that they can buy and sell. Most of the sites you see aren't selling porn, they're selling traffic. Namely, you. That's why you see so many pop-ups, garbage, and other crap. Not to mention tons of misleading links or whatnot. It wouldn't surprise me if the "passwords" you got were actually put out there by people trying to get you to sign up for a "real" account. That seems to be pretty common these days.
But yeah, for the most part the online porn world is festering along with the rest of the net, with spam and crap. These people are really "overgrazing the commons" They get lots of hits now, but in the end they alienate so many people who know consider online porn to be basically the same thing as spam. They may make more for themselves, but damage the industry overall.
Actually, if you could really stop all porn, people's sex drives would simply go down. You wouldn't have people out raping anyone. Really all you'd end up with is a bunch of bored masturbators fantasizing about a hot chick they saw at the mall or something.
Of course, while spankin' it will reduce the desire to have sex immediately afterwards, porn just makes it more fun. If you watched less porn, you'd think about sex less.
The same is true of violence and violent media. Watch violent media, and you're more likely to be aggressive. If you do something like punch a pillow or whatnot when you're pissed off, you'll just get more pissed off (but maybe fell a little better).
Some studies have been done on porn and rape, and according to the findings men who looked at violent pornography did change their attitudes towards rape (more likely to say they'd do if they knew they would get away with it, more likely to say it wasn't that bad) after watching tons of porn. But a lot of the "affects of porn" research is done with violent pornography, while the vast majority of porn out there is "normal" stuff, you know naked women hopefully making out with each other. It's totally obvious that "violent" porn would make people have "violent" sexual fantasies, but most people aren't interested in that sort of thing anyway.
Ultimately, each individual is responsible for their own actions, and trying to control speech, and artistic expression in order to keep "bad thoughts" out of peoples heads might work somewhat, but that doesn't mean it will prevent "bad actions". And a censored world like that isn't one I'd want to live in.
The people who this is going to impress were going to vote for bush anyway. But Ashcroft and particularly the FCC has pissed off the Howard Stern "beer and boobies" types. Stern bitches about Bush on his radio show now all the time. In the end, this is going to cost bush
It only takes about an hour to comment on links, and I have a moderation system so that other people can moderate if I'm slacking or busy. It works really well. As far as content, actually thousands and thousands of links have actually been submitted since I started the site.
Frankly, I really should be up to a jury to decide. I mean, He wasn't out spraying crops or anything. He was simply tooling around in his house with "harmless" bacteria and writing crazed manifestos.
Was he "practicing" terrorism? No. But neither were the 9/11 hijackers untill that day.
This guy was arrested for things in his own home. The Police are treating this just like finding a huge cache of explosives or something, when in fact its what (he claims) is harmless bacteria.

Polaroid actualy developed an instimatic movie camera, around the same time (and at the same cost) as consumer Camcorders.
