  1. Re:Giv'em computer access! on Blaster Variant Creator Pleads Guilty · · Score: 1

    A job's pay should be commensurate to skill/learning/productivity/diligence--even with mundane yet necessary tasks. My point is that victims shouldn't have to pay any of the living expenses of debtors forced into profitless welfare "living." We need to progress past the failures of so-called penitence/penitentiaries for crimes such as stealing. Government should promote the principle/potential for restitution instead of tax-penalizing the victims of that crime in order to support/facilitate the rapidly growing class of jobless/welfare/criminal/homosexual/masturbating inmates/primates.

    He owes a debt and *we* have to start paying for his room 'n board after he loses his job--his means to pay? At least let him work online for an anti-virus or anti-spam company. Don't take away computer access as done with Kevin Mitnick.

  3. Re:you weren't baited... on Why Wall Street Wants Google to Fail · · Score: 1

    In case anyone is wondering how the U.S. came to allow and protect the privately held international central bank cartel (deceitfully called the "Federal" "Reserve") that creates fiat "money" to lend to debtors, I have a few links to short papers, essays, FAQ's: http://www.1nun.net/articles/Constitution.htm Also, search for the book: The Creature from Jekyll Island - A Second Look at the Frederal Reserve (4th Edition 2002 by G.

  9. Samsung 955DF CRT switcharoo on Are Review Units Better Than Store Versions? · · Score: 3, Informative

    The early Samsung 955DF was a perfect 19" flat-black screen CRT with .20mm dotpitch. The control panel was a rectangle in the center that when pushed, slowly slid diagonally down to reveal the control buttons. Very slick. Early Samsung 955DF

    Now the "Samsung 955DF" has controls on the front, the screens are much more reflective and oily-looking, and black appears grey even when the brightness is all the way down. More recent Samsung 955DF

    If someone takes code currently under the BSD license, modifies it, makes the changes private, and sells it for a profit, would they be subject to penalties too?

    Yes, I do. And do you dare think He likes His name so used?

    Matthew 28:18 And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."

  17. Re:Jesus fucking tapdancing christ on Law and Virtual Worlds · · Score: 1

    I don't like your subject line (and neither does He), but I agree with this idea: our government has a full-time job punishing counterfeiting already. Although some see a fine-line between virtual/game money and the ex nihilo fiat "funny money" Federal Reserve Notes made for and by profit-seeking non-Federal/private shareholders who lend to our Government, our FRN's are nonetheless given to us by our Government, which was given the authority to do so. If the Government considers every programmer's form of money to be protected by law, I would shake my head at its financial wisdom : ) I hope/pray the Government won't (continue to) waste my tax dollars.

  19. Design, Intelligence, Absolute Ethics & Hot Wa on Did Life Originate Underwater? · · Score: 0, Troll

    With all the intelligence we can see and appreciate in our design and the intelligence that we can hopefully recognize in ourselves, you expect me to believe that all this intelligence came from hot water and random circumstances? When we presuppose God wasn't the creator and instead have hot water and inorganic material to thank, absolute ethics are all wet and we may find ourselves in hot water after we die. Well, maybe we will wish for water.
