    All you pro copyright posters seem to frame the argument in the same way "blah blah, jealous loser|thief|poor who has never created anything in their life".

    I have not pirated anything in over 15 years (at least not intentionally) and I think this extension of copyright lark is absolute bullshit, and pushed primarily by corporate concerns. I don't think copyright is useless, it's just extremely broken, and you are completely unable to address any of the actual points.. you just keep resorting back to ad-hominem.

    TL;DR ad hominem is no way to win an argument, your argument is weak, and you're probably a paid corporate shill.

  5. Re:So it's because they used a quote in advertisin on TripAdvisor Fined In Italy For Fake Reviews · · Score: 1

    You're a plonker. They specifically posted reviews themselves, one calling a restaurant named Tomato and Basil "the best chinese restaurant in Milan" . These reviews were neither reviewed nor removed, therfor, there needs to be indication that there is no filtering of the the user posted content (except for bad word filters.. maybe).

    The punching and gun grabbing is not in the testimony of the other man who was right there, only in the police declaration..

    Without his gun, he probably would ave dealt with the situation in an entirely different manner, and neither of them would be dead.

    1. He admitted the store robbery, go read that 180 page pdf up there.
    2. The cop is the only one alive, witness says he pulled up and grabbed him
    3. He was running, second shot made him turn, then he was shot more as he was raising his hands, at least that's the impression I get from the testimony..
    4. Inside the car is possible if the officer grabbed the suspect as the witness states, he would have been very close to the window.

    Go read the testimony.

    It's a pretty clear case of the police escalating.. for sure the kid did some dumb shit.. but nothing that seems to justify more than a visit to prison, and maybe a criminal record.

    In an extremely crowded situation, possibly.you'd be surprised how quickly humans notice other humans lying down and bleeding.

    Knives are scary, and in the right hands, a very effective short range weapon, but comparing them to a device that can accelerate projectiles to above the speed of sound is just silly.

    I'm not sure you understand what a hybrid seed is.

    It's a cross of two stable (true breeding) plant strains. The first generation has what is called hybrid vigor, which means it grows much better and stronger tan either of its parents. However, in the next generations, these hybrids lose the vigor, and tend to lean towards one or the other parent.. often plants not chosen because of their high quality, but for the high quality of their hybridized offspring.

    Hybridizing doesn't require fancy facilities or equipment, just some decent plant husbandry skills.

    Anyone that says GMO is fine is lying.

    Anyone that claims that GMO is deadly is lying.

    The evidence that ONLY time can provide will give us that answer.

    The only intellectually honest answer is "we don't have enough evidence to say either way".
