I have a long rich history of posts with bad grammar, typos, and awful spelling. Believe it or not, its rare that someone is asshole enough to point it out since most people can get the joke. I think the whole 'lets point out spelling errors' posts are made by people who have nothing useful to post and feel like they need to make up for it by pointing out problems with other people's posts. Sad really.
I can see why making an electronic voting machine is such a difficult task. I mean, the code to add numbers together depending on what button was pushed sounds like some really hairy stuff.

Should I be held liable for a virus that plants child porn on my hard drive?
No, you shouldn't because if a virus did plant some shit on your hard drive you would be able to prove that the data was from a virus very easily.
It would be different of Kazza was never installed and this was just some lady who was framed or something which is pretty easy to do on a cable network so, that might have happened. But, basically, she has nothing to loose so why not lie? She can't pay the money, she has some disease, and basically her life can't get any worse. Might as well fight it and hope for donations.
Its all relative. Maybe you don't want your tax dollars paid to people who want to stop 12 year olds from buying violent/pornographic material. Personally, I don't give a fuck one way or the other. I mean, if you add up all the taxes I've ever paid in my life, including sales tax, it probaly paid for a couple f-16 paint jobs and a pack of Bill Clinton's condoms. So if some do gooders want to take 1/1000000000 of a penny out of my taxes and pay some elected people to attempt to help parents raise their children in an age where parents pretty much need all the fucking help they can get, well, go right ahead.
It doesn't 99.9% of the people. Passing the law is not going to raise taxes, raise the game prices, or anything like that. Even if all the people worked on legislation YOU thought was important, hurricanes will still come and kill people. The world will not end if kids get carded when trying to buy a rated M game.
And what will happen next is more people will die because some already crazy abused kid will shoot some folks and blame it on mario and we'll all be back to square 1. Welcome to america.
But can't your parents technically take any right you have away? If minors had the same protection adults did, then it would be illegal to penalize kids for talking in class.(name on the board). Parents would not be allowd to restrict their childrens driving, or put them in their room for fear of civil rights violations. You can't just lock someone in a room against their will, but its ok for parents to do so.
Sorry, were you not able to make out what I was trying to say because I forgot the S? Oh..you were but you had to comment on it anyway.
News flash, state legislators/federal gov control almost every aspect of our lives. What we eat, what we drink, where we live, what we drive, how we drive it, what our kids can buy, how they are educated, what we pay in taxes, so on. You as a single person basically have no say in anything. Do you think because you get your starbucks every morning and an everybody loves raymond re-run at night that you are truly free? Your just as much a slave to the system as everyone else.
Err, I don't think they would be draining New Orleans if they were not involved with this legislation. Thats kinda a job for the army core of engineers.
By your logic, everyone should drop what they are doing and make a feeble attempt to help plan for disasters or run down to New Orleans with a bucket. We have experts who are supposed to deal with this stuff, Army, National Guard, state and local authorities. I doubt they need some CA state legislators down there trying to help.
My point had nothing to do with underage rights. It isn't the government's job to make decisions about how you raise your kids.
I don't see you grumbling because kids can't buy beer, smokes, and porn. Why is this such a hot topic for you?
Why does it matter if people under 18 are pissed off. They can't vote anyway. Technically, you have no rights until you come of age so. Be patient. One day you too will be 18 and you can buy all the hot coffee you want.
I'm sad to say my state is on the bandwagon, and the charge is being lead by Democrats. From the article: 'Michigan Governor Jennifer M. Granholm has announced that she will sign legislation later this week that will make the sale or rental of mature or adult-rated video games to children illegal... The fine for anyone caught selling a "violent title" ( apparently defined by the bill as real or simulated graphic depictions of physical injuries or physical violence against parties who realistically appear to be human beings) to minors will initially be $5,000, and can go as high as $40,000...'"
So...basically, your for selling adult rated material to children or I am missing something? Let me guess, your under 18 and your pissed you won't be able to buy the next version of topless titi BMX racing without your mommy's consent.
Ever heard of Weapons of mass destruction? Its one thing to compulsively lie, its another to do it and get people killed in the process because someome tried to kill your daddy.

Well, I bought Norton for mac and when I ran it, it said:
"Updating Virii Signatures......"
"0 Signatures updated, there are no virii for mac you idiot"
Can I return it?

Lets see
if(button==1)
TirdSandwitch++;
else if(button==2)
GiantDouche++;
As you can see, there are millions of bugs that could happen in this scenario.

Err, I don't know...maybe the missing ozone layer has something to do with it?
Theres nothing like the smell of a GUI patent infringment case in the morning!

ewww, you use EXT3? Why punish yourself? Try Reiser, XFS, or JFS.

If LAMP can scale well enought to handle some of the biggest sites on the INTERNET, I think it can scale to handle a company intranet.

Can't microsoft invent anything on their own and launch it rather than looking at what other people do and try to kill it?
Too bad I just patented overhauling patent law!
