You're not getting it- He and his friends had a great time it sounds like, he had the satisfaction of not being pushed around by some boneheaded rule. They did it their own damn selves.
Dang people, live a little.....enjoy life.
I cannot believe that I am on/. having to encourage anti-social behavior. What the heck has happened to this place? Do we only feel like being anti-social if it involves sitting safely in our houses and downloading copyrighted material?
The UNU has long been known to be the UN (and hence the American-haters) shill. The addtition of the moniker "University" at the end plays on the Western world's granting of instant credibility to universities as placing of truth-seeking and teaching without bias.
The UNU is nothing more than a bunch of Marxist propagandists that will use any useful lie and distortion if it suits there cause.
To call UNU a university is an insult to real places of learning.
...including the one of her in a kawasaki jacket, the brand she mentions repeatedly? did they pay her for promo?
I find your comment stikingly cynical. FYI, morotcyclists are very brand loyal- you're are a "Kawasaki rider", or you have been a "Honda Man" all your life. These people started out on a certain brand of trail bike at an early age and build trust in a product that, if not properly built can take their life. This tends to make morotcycle riders stick with a brand they trust. I think (but don't know) that European riders are even more into "their brand" than American riders since they (and their car brethren) tend to form clubs and riding groups based on the type of bike or car. Perhaps some of our European friends on/. can go into this further.
Free software does have the side effect of removing high priced, rehashed software from the market.
Perhaps if you could back up your conjecture with facts.....cold, hard facts that are from a verifiable, unbiased source then more people would be likely to believe what you say. I desperately want to believe you......but just because someone on Slashdot says it's so.....
I work for a small company that makes money by selling proprietary software. I'm the DBA, and get my work done using primarily free tools (MySQL, PHP, Perl, Apache, Linux, BSD.) I also write open-source software on my own time. Everybody wins.
Very interesting perspective. I would even agree that, for now, everyone does win. However, in all honesty I have to wonder what happens when the software you wrote for free causes the business where you write for pay to go bankrupt?
No, pathetic is the word that I am looking for. Dump the guilt and the anger- life is better that way. Human life anyway. I never thought that I would meet someone that felt guilty about his humanity.
Please don't bother to respond, I am thru wasting my time on you. You have nothing more to possibly offer me in this conversation, freak.
...and therefore, it's worse to kill the animal than the baby.
Look, I am not going to get into an argument with someone who does not consider the sanctity of life of their own species of the highest importance. Not worth my time. Come back when you have some understanding of the value of a human life vis a vis a fucking fish.
Please tell me that you are not so void of emotion that you consider a scientific explanation of the relative worth of our species a valid excuse for infanticide.
I do understand that science such as you mention could be fascinating in a disconnected, morbid sort of way but I hope that is then only basis for posting such a remark.
...it's called "Animal Cruelty" and people do go to jail for it
Yep, you can get more time for beating a dog than a child. Sad state of affairs when a society treats its children like animals and its animals like children.
..if you can't count on 20 Nobel laureate scientists to make an honest, apolitical assessment of the state of science in our government...
Why on earth would you think that anyone associated with a University (most scientists are) these days is anything but a raging leftist-liberal? The statistics prove this (go find 'em yourself lazy-ass) and there can be no doubt of this influence on these scientists.
I stopped reading Scientific American because of the political bullshit in there. Scientists have gotten so political that your statement about trusting them is laughable.
The politics of this is blatant and I'll listen to scientist's political opinion's about the same time I'll listen to an actor's political opinions'
I realize that this is Slashdot but repeating the mantra "'president' with the IQ of a wet sock" shows you to be too stupid to do your own research and implies that you simply gave up your brain and now let the NYT do your thinking for you.
Your comments about religion and your repeating of easily disproven fallacies about the south show you to be more racist and bigoted, with less facts that those you look down your nose at.
I only hope that you are just simply punk kid that is enraptured at his professor's mindless, Chomsky-inspired rants but who will eventually grow up and see the ignorant, non-critical thinking, lemming-like error of his ways and join the rest of us in happiness, success and prosperity.
If not then I guess you will have to simply rot in your hatred and continue spewing hate-filled, propaganda-filled lies like how 'ignorant' the west is based on 500 year old history. In the meantime I will pity you for about the ten seconds that your pathetic, ignorant rants are worth.
He's the fucking governor- FIRE whoever's giving the info
You ever worked in government? You know how freakin' hard it is to fire a government employee? Why do you think government employees act like they can't be fired?
Is this the 'Evil' Google suing? If you are true to your beliefs then this requires you to condemn Google. Doubtful that you can do this since it requires you to turn against not the 'Evil Borg' but one of open source's 'best friends'.
What say you? Hypocrite or not?

With attitudes like this, we would have waited for the proper government bureau approval before dumping the tea in the harbor.

Don't but it if you can't afford it.
Try it on for size.
The real question is not that but how much stupidity costs......
Mr Sagan probably said it better than any of us can.
Yep, mod me down as troll. Fear the truth you gutless, no-integrity wonders?

How appropriate since we are apparently the New Rome .

In the same exact way the original poster deduced his 'truth' from nothing.
Can we consider the point proven?
You ever worked in government? You know how freakin' hard it is to fire a government employee? Why do you think government employees act like they can't be fired?
Do try to at least attempt to find the truth before you presume to speak with such confidence.
