So what? They can stick him in Gitmo until he dies of old age or gets mysteriously shived. Huge difference...
But then, you can't even write your own name.
I agree with you, except for the 360. Getting your customers to massively buy a fundamentally flawed product two or three times is brilliant.
Of course, I haven't bought one, btw.
That was true 10 years ago. The left in Europe either went to the center right as well or just went on full corruption mode (aside from the smaller parties).
There is still no-one on the left presenting a solution to maintain the Euro as we're nearing the point were it no longer matters.
"It seeks to put an end to the big-government utopia that you've been trying and failing to build for decades."
Right. Two wars, a concentration camp, the DHS, for starters, are obviously all the fault of the democrats.
Both parties are screwing you, but the republicans are much much worse. This much is obvious for anyone outside America. I hope.
"And be wary of clauses that allow them to change the license at will to a future version that may not be to your liking, or that they may interpret to say something it doesn't say."
It's better to trust that the law (or even case law) doesn't change or to believe that who wrote the license is perfect and made no mistakes.
Hey, that reminds me, why was the GPLv3 written again?
Le sigh. I obviously meant the ones who had 120000 of their fellows killed in the wars, not to mention the ones who were tortured. Assuming those are even, how about the Iranians, Indonesians, Chileans, Cubans, whatever the Panama residents are called, Nicaraguans and so on and so forth?
Or just, you know, how about presenting the leaders and soldiers involved in torture to the Hague?
But hey, go celebrate that you killed a guy, it only took 1.25 trillion dollars, 120000 direct deaths, countless cases of torture and enormous loses of liberties in the civilized world, not to mention the violation on international laws and foreign sovereignty and internal widespread increase of corruption.
Meanwhile, Valery Plame at least got a movie, unlike 9/11 first responders got squat for complications incurred for their bravery in 9/11, and your own soldiers who were treated like pure cannon fodder. Thankfully, one way or another, it seams chance WILL come to your country, if only via bankruptcy.
Meh, I should really work on getting to the point.
He equated the op to police work, which implies a lot of things that are just different, and he sounded very much like "we'll do what we want whenever we want" that makes you have so many friends.
I don't really think there is a problem in outright shooting the c***, americans just shouldn't pretend you're being noble and that it isn't about revenge at this point.
Alrighty then, can the middle easterns do a black ops on Bush because he caused the hundreds of thousands of innocent relatives? You know, eye for an eye and all that.
Double standard much?
Not that I care for Bin Laden, mind, I just think he stopped mattering on 9/12.
Increasing taxes rarely, if ever, results in a net increase in revenue.
Unless you're increasing taxes on those who barely pay anything and just like big bank accounts as an extension of their penises. Like, say, Wall Street executives that pretend there is money where there is none and make everyone pay their million dollar bonuses.
You could always do what other democratic countries do and change the constitution, even by referendum you'd like. It's not the ten commandments and set in stone, you know... It doesn't seem that your governments will have many checks and balances in a few decades, at this rate.
Don't forget XNA, now you can develop games for the monopoly OS and easily port them to their console! What a deal!
Shame it's illegal to do that, but Sony and Nintendo don't want to look bad and sue them, for some reason.
To me, that really brought to light just how much the people at Top Gear are biased towards the cars that they like and against the cars that they don't.
And this was new to you? I think it's so strikingly obvious that anyone wanting to learn anything about cars isn't getting anything from Top Gear. I watch it for the Lulz.
Do they have gaming controls yet? Do they have Nintendo's games in it? Have they stopped making them obsolete every 6 months yet? I think I'll buy the 3DS, thank you very much.
No, we don't have legal drugs in any way, shape or form. I know, I've wanted pot for ages now. What we have is decriminalization of use, and even then you can't possess much and you have to agree to counseling. Sorry, but we're no heaven.
So what if it's static? You might have your finger up your nose, how nice it would be if some cute girl your trying to meet sees your stupid face? Sure, it's a tiny example, but it's more than enough to beat "can't be bothered to blur stuff". Don't people say don't get drunk and place the pictures on facebook? What if Google does it for you and screws your candidacy for a job, just because it costs them a few dollars to have someone blur it? Sure, the case in the article sounds silly and is probably brought up by people who don't understand tech, but privacy is a nice thing that we (Europeans in general and specifically the Portuguese) like to take for granted. Even our public figures seem to be able to defend themselves against tabloids publishing extremely private things. It makes me feel people actually matter, not money for money's sake. I really don't understand how Americans don't value it at all, since they get so bothered when someone looks at them the wrong way. But if it happens so that someone is making money, then it's ok.
Regarding email: email is private, if Google looks at it and shares it, they would be seriously fucked. Hell, the European Commission is looking into privacy very seriously now as is, and I believe they'll reach an important consensus on some of the digital privacy rights we should have.

And the DS and the PS1 and the PS2 And the Wii...

Because he doesn't use them, hence, they don't matter.

And by 'he' I mean Sycraft-fu.

I didn't know the CIA had jurisdiction in Pakistan, but I guess as long as it's part of Earth, the police force of the world can do whatever.

Pretty much. Especially with Bloglines problems at updating feeds.
Ask Salvador Allende, Che Guevara or Rafael Trujillo, to name a few.
Yes it does. However, it is a brick without being activated on a computer, so how exactly does it work in your scenario?
Pray tell how an iPhone user can use it without a computer.
Windows is a monopoly. It's illegal to use a monopoly to increase your presence in another market. AFAIK.
Don't forget XNA, now you can develop games for the monopoly OS and easily port them to their console! What a deal! Shame it's illegal to do that, but Sony and Nintendo don't want to look bad and sue them, for some reason.

Gaming controls. For actual games, not 5min wasters like the iphone.
