You're on crack if you think the FBI isn't interested in IndyMedia. To quote Mr. Heron, "You got freedom of speech - as long as you don't say too much." IndyMedia participants say a lot.
touche. I sit corrected.
I forgot my own maxim (though I don't think I'm the first to say it), "Consider the intelligence of the average user. Try not to wince. Then remember that by definition, half of all users are _not_ that intelligent."
Jack Clarke, European product manager at McAfee, said, "So we will be seeing more Linux viruses as the OS becomes more common and popular."
Mr. Clarke is wrong.
I've worked on the oil patch, and all the Halliburton crews I've seen were maddeningly subcompetent. Bigger? Yes. Better? Nope. "Come again when you're ready to play ball."
I can't believe I read that. You are mistaken in your analysis. Fire up an IRC client and lurk on #debian or ##linux for 12 hours and you will understand just how ignorant your post is. Knowledgeable people love to share what they know, with average, above average, and below average users.
Sundays on #debian are legendary: "/msg dpkg sunday" for details.
Why are you ignoring the `conspiracy` sites? It doesn't take rocket science to figure out that they are on to something.
However, some rocket scientists have researched the situation, and clearly show that the `official` story is woefully flimsy. At which point, it would be wise to remember that you are likely being deliberately misinformed.
The fact is that there is no voting technology currently used anywhere that can collect 6 million votes in one 12-hour day and tabulate them with a 100% accuracy rate.
Lay off the ganja (I'd like some of whatever you were smoking, but only _after_ I post), or visit some countries other than your own. Marked paper ballots, counted by _humans_, typically two independant teams comprised of representatives from each major party, and counted in public. No-one goes home until both teams come up with the same numbers, and those numbers add up to the number of voters signing in to vote at the polling station, and nobody from the public has said, "You guys dropped one on the floor."
It is not rocket science, and with at least four people and two (usually opposing) agendas involved, the chance of a 'parity error' getting past is lower that the chance of a parity error read off of the RAM inside your computer. 100% ? Maybe not, but certainly more that four nines. Your suggestion of a 99% accuracy rate from machines is a red herring.
I tried "apt-get --dry-run --purge remove libgdk-pixbuf2 libgdk-pixbuf-gnome2" and the list of packages was _long_. I do not have a gnome-heavy system, either. Some choice selections:
bonobo galeon gdm gnome-control-center
gnome-help gnome-panel
gnome-session gnome-utils libgnomeprint-bin nautilus rep-gtk-gnome sawfish-gnome xchat-gnome
To put it kindly, that's an inane comment you've made.
Bush has made it abundantly clear that the current motto is "with us or against us", and his administration has successfully eroded several of the American populous' civil liberties^Wprivileges. Here's a suggestion: look up "northland" and "cuba" in your favourite search engine (though google is recommmended). READ the fucking document. Your government prepared it at considerable expense. Good luck getting through it without crying. You will then realize that, in any scenario you care to imagine involving the American government, if you are thinking "Our government would never do something that evil", you are wrong.
Punish people for voting the wrong way? You're right, there's no sign yet. That's only because there's not yet an official method to observe how specific members of the general population vote. Once that's out of the way, try voting for John Walker on your non-secret ballot. He's an American Citizen, after all. (Does the Office of the President have the same age restriction as Senator?) Brave enough to go on record as supporting him?
The secret ballot is not something to take lightly, and any thin edge should have everyone leaping up, loudly. No, louder than that, you fucktards. (no, not you, iamacat).
I know they are trying to ram it through committee, but have they really thought about this? It's crazy.
You've answered your own question. Yes, they have thought it through. ASF cannot be expected to budge on the freedom aspect. If MSFT gets any kind of patent-encumbered email system in wide use (if their idea for SPF becomes accepted by the IETF, that chance goes from 0 (zero) to possible (not zero)), I forsee SpamAssassin one fathom down on land.
proof that the World Trade center attack was actually coordinated by George Bush
Funny? Mods on crack. Consider: the Secret Service, knowing that at least four airplanes were currently hijacked on the eastern seaboard, allowed President Bush to remain in a pre-advertised location in Florida for 30 minutes, when SOP since about 1975 dictated immediate evacuation, as was done for VP Cheney:
'...put a hand on my belt, another hand on my shoulder and propelled me out the door of my office," says Cheney. "I'm not sure how they do it, but they sort of levitate you down the hallway. You move very fast." '
Source: CBS News.
Note that the agents with the Vice-President went by the book, whereas the agents with the President did not. Do you really suppose Cheney merits a significantly better guard detail? It should not take any kind of rocket science to figure out why no-one got publicly pilloried for allowing Bush to remain where he was. But just in case, I'll spell it out: He (and/or his guard detail) likely knew where the planes were going. Got a different rationale?
Thanks! A truely interesting almost-table, now I feel like a heel for swearing at you. What I notice is that the "Voluntary Load Reduction" setups (Duquesne) are targeted exclusively at "C & I" (commercial/industrial), not residential. I'll give it time. 40 years ago, no-one would have thought it possible for a video recorder to be in almost every home.
Those folk need a better webmaster - the font is... tiny and changing the font size makes the columns not line up, so you can't see what's referencing what. Took me half an hour to figure out what was going on, and I'm thinking I might still be misunderstanding it.
Some power companies already offer discounts for those in high heat areas if the end user allows the power company to turn off their AC during peak usage times.

Holy smokes. Please come back to reality, and when you do, be sure to not drink the kool-aid.
You've put a lot of effort into incorrect statements - and I do not feel it worth my time to refute all of them piece by piece. But here is a start: you have been fed contradictions and lies.
It would probably be worth _your_ time for you to refute what you have said. Take, for example, a close look at what the vice chair of the US House Intelligence Commitee had to say recently on the issue:
Think about who said that, as well as what he said, for a minute or two. Yes, I know, 'thought is irksome and two minutes is a long time.' But there are over a thousand american soldiers (and tens of thousands Iraqi civilians) dead for lack of sitting down and thinking for a moment.
If it's any consolation, I metamoderated the 'flamebait' as unfair. When they say "What follows are random moderations..." they aren't always kidding.
...in case a catastrophic show-stopper pops up,
Helloo, McFly... can you say beta ? Microsoft deserves to be roasted, crisped, nay, charcoaled if this is how they treat their customers. Microsoft should be objecting to this software being distributed by Microsoft.
