  1. Mutants are very real on The Rights of GM Humans · · Score: 1
    I have here a list of names of identified mutants living right here in the United States.

    Here's a girl in Illinois who can walk through walls. Now what's to stop her from walking into a bank vault, or the White House, or into their houses?

    ...and there are even rumors, Miss Grey, of mutants so powerful that they can enter our minds and control our thoughts, taking away our God-given free will.

    Now I think the American people deserve the right to decide if they want their children to be in school with mutants. To be taught by mutants!

    Ladies and gentlemen, the truth is that mutants are very real, and that they are among us. We must know who they are, and above all, what they can do !

  5. Re:Interesting thought: Build new shuttles! on Columbia Accident Board Preliminary Recommendations · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Don't forget the loss of public image the US got. I don't know if it can be translated to numbers, but in the long run, the US lost, in the war, more than what was conquered.

    Now millions of people, worldwide, are loathing the US. Millions of potential Bin Ladens got angry. Millions of consumers are boycotting American products. Does it have a price ?

    I think the US shot their own foot, and I don't think the economic costs will be limited just to the war price tag.

    This is another American lie. Keith Packard, American official, is NOT free, he was easily subjugated by our dauntless troops. And he possessed not a fork, but a knife of mass destruction.

    Note: I rewrote this message because some infidelic moderator modded it as offtopic. But I have no fear. Will trench my post and resist to the negative mods.

  11. Hacker's diet on Lose Weight The Slow, Boring Way · · Score: 1

    I read some comments that said that FAT is essential, and I, as a doctor, can affirm: It's not.

    While I must agree that when a virus destroys your FAT it's a really bad thing, if you do things the careful and proper way, FAT can be safely replaced by NTFS or even EXT3.

    Some people recommend replacing FAT for FAT32. The problem with this is that FAT32 supports bigger volumes. But when you're on a diet, you want a smaller volume, not a bigger one, right ? So forget about FAT32.

  12. Re:Preemptive legal action on Federal Judge Rules Against Reverse-engineering · · Score: 2, Insightful

    A judge, as in this case, is not likely to accept preemptive lawsuits because all he can claim is he wouldn't use them

    If a nation can perform a military preemptive attack with no proofs beyond reasonable doubt and expect the world to accept it, then why should a judge of this very same nation refuse to accept preemptive lawsuits without proofs ?

  13. Preemptive legal action on Federal Judge Rules Against Reverse-engineering · · Score: 1

    that Edelman had no legal standing to be granted such permission because there was no imminent threat he would be sued.

    What does "no imminent threat he would be sued" mean ?

    They could have sued Edelman preemptively, based on the fact that he possesses mass reverse-engineering tools,
    and they could even try to link him to dangerous hacker groups, to wich he'd supposedly give these tools.

    Hey, this argument works for countries.
