type in "Crack Dealer". I got a link on the right to some lameo cop killer who was dealing crack and shot a cop and died from lethal injection in texas. In the left column it gives me a local address, presumably for some poor schmuck who has the same name. oops!
that's kinda the whole point. RIAA says that P2P is only for bad evil traders and pirates and goes after the technology creators of the P2P software. We always said, hey, there are good uses for the technology other than pirating mp3's we just can't think of any right now, but regardless, creating the software shouldn't be a crime, using it to commit a crime is, but having it or creating it isn't. Riaa says, nonsense, it's a crime as there are no real reasons other than piracy to have p2p software. DOJ says we want to use it. RIAA says oh shit, now we have to get the pirates, not the software developers.
some serial rapist child adbucter murderer identity theft will get caught using this software and then they'll make a tv movie about him and then joe sixpack and his wife dailyshow sue will care.
speaking of which, sue told me that the daily show had something about diebold on it and that it was bad. WOW!!!
I'll pretend to be a customer who was confused and sell out free software and legitimate uses of reverse engineering and for that matter all practical applications of intelligence and education. Why the fuck not. For the right price...
WTF? Someone just woke up one day and said, "Know what bob? I'm a gonna go to Cambodia. That's right. Cambodia."
"What are you gonna do in Cambodia?"
"I don't know. But I think I'm gonna ride a motorbike."
"A motorbike?"
nods.
"In Cambodia?"
"Right."
"wow. Why?"
"I think I'll use it to send email. You know, there's a lack of email in Cambodia. And there are lots of motorbikes. If we could just get a motorbike to help us send email, the people of Cambodia would be able to get Nigerian spam just like we do."
"You know, now that you've put it that way, it sounds like a good idea. Motorbike, email, Cambodia, spam. Can I go with?"
"Well of course, Bob. I wouldn't have it any other way."
My phone has it. I can turn it off or on within the phone software. It's a sprint PCS phone, made by Samsung. I don't know what good it is, unless maybe I die in the middle of the woods, which of course, would mean I'd be out of cell phone range anyway, but whatever. Is there a website somewhere where I can type in my number and pull up my cell phone on a little map? If so, I have only this to say:
Here's to sweethearts and wives, may they never meet.
Didn't DOD's brain branch design the freakin internet? Now they didn't code up every site, but they laid the foundation (please, no al gore jokes, I'm being serious here). I think combining government experts with academic experts can produce some amazing results, and in some cases it's worth avoiding the private sector.
We said that the DMCA would be used to stifle free speech and competition. It got shut down today for lexmark, but it's still being used by Diebold. This is what we were arguing about. All of you, granted you're a small minority on slashdot, but all of you who argued that the DMCA wouldn't be abused, and we just wanted to steal music, and all that other shit should be learning that we were right back then about the DMCA, and we are right right now about the dangers of corporate controlled electronic voting.
The system will automatically see when a kid is outside of a designated zone at a certain time (for example, in the hall instead of in class) and it will shock them until they return to the zone. Of course, an override will be made available to teachers for bathroom breaks. Parents will be able to add rules to the logic system that will target certain behavioural issues. Such behaviours include: Getting a C- or lower, talking out of turn, falling asleep, cussing, talking to boys/and or girls, getting a hard on- a sure sign of inappropriate thoughts, talking to bad kids, or black kids (niggers, as the parents most excited about this feature refer to them).
See, there are only a handful of broadcast stations. The RIAA can easily pay for play with these stations to control the music they promote. With the internet, there are potentially millions of stations. Without these ridiculous royalty requirements, these internet stations are able to play songs other than the 20 on the list of RIAA approved songs for this format for this week. The RIAA hates this, because it makes it harder to promote the artists they want to promote this week. Notice how the only time you hear something from an artists older stuff is when that same artist has a new album out this Tuesday? It's not helpful to this week's sales to promote some album that has already peaked years ago - unless it's by an artist whose new album is on sale this week.
It's all about control, not fairness, not piracy, not IP. Control of the promotional arm of the music industy - Radio.
It's not just spyware. The fucker installs automatically, and secretly. It is a trojan. It should be illegal. Why is it they arrest virus writers, but if you sell it for profit, it's ok?
As long as electric cars look like electric cars, they will never ever catch on. I don't care if the damn thing can go back in time, if it looks like some kind of science fair project it's not going to win the hearts of consumers.
As you point out, the press made a much bigger deal out of the hanging chads than they deserved. At least those people got to vote.
Actually, the biggest legitimate complaint about Florida was the consolidation of the voter rolls. Through the consolidation they were able to remove tons of mostly black, mostly democrat names by falsely claiming they were all felons.
The biggest threat with these touch screen voting machines, is that the money earmarked to pay for them comes with a clause that voter rolls in states that use the federal money need to be rolled up from the county level to the state level.
Which means not only will your state get these shitty ass e-machines made by a clearly corrupt company, but you'll also be at risk for having tons of names falsely consolidated out of existence.
Now, I'm no expert, but that doesn't sound like the America I thought I lived in.
Democrat or Republican, this is fucked up!
Here's the most comprehensive, and balanced article I've ever read on it. They attack both Democrats and Republicans, as both are to blame.
I don't really advocate killing. Pat Robertson admitted he was wrong. Therefore, my justification for force has been removed. Don't kill people, it's still a sin. And a crime!
Take them to court though, I'm sure you can win because court is about justice, not money.
Seriously, WE THE PEOPLE don't have the money to buy the ears of our representatives the way the corporate interests can. WE THE PEOPLE won't soon even really have the power of voting the bums out of office, if Diebold, Inc. gets their way. WE THE PEOPLE have few options short of throwing the tea in the harbor.
Here's what we can do.
Stop paying taxes, as they go to benefit some fucked up government claiming to be ours - but which does nothing in the public interest. Of course this would have to be universal, or the few fools who try it will get thrown in jail and the rest of us will pay even more to cover thier prison expenses.
Stop voting, completely. Don't even show up. When the next president wins with 2 votes it will be clear that these people only represent their corporate buddies. Of course, this isn't much use either, other than as a statement.
Hold the people behind these corporations accountable for their actions. If you can't do so legally, through civil suits or what not, do so through violence. If Mr. CEO of Evil Corp, Inc. were to take a bullet in the head following the latest introduction of an evil bill in the senate by the senator his company bought out, there may be less of that in the future.
People are running these corporations, which in turn 0w3n your government. The only way to regain control of this country, is to make the people behind these corporations pay. Pay in court. Pay in blood.
Is this too extreme? It's your country, you decide.
Hey, if Pat Robertson, a Christian Role Model that I look up to and learn from can advocate Nuking the State Department for the good of his country, I can advocate violence against crooked evil greedy CEOs for the good of my country. Or are you saying there're two sets of rules. One set for huge financial donors of the republican party, and one for the rest of us?
I'm ready to kill to protect my country. This is true against terrorist bastards, and it's true against internal threats as well. Try to rig elections in America, expect to die. We should take the men and women behind these corporations out into the street and hang 'em high, just like they would in Texas. A cheat is a cheat. A Fraud is a fraud. I don't care if you vote Republican or Democrat, your vote won't matter if these people get their way. We have no choice but to fight. I'm not advocating killing anyone yet, there are less extreme steps to take first, but if those all fail, then killing would be justified, in my opionion. It's for your country, after all. It might still be a sin, and God probably wouldn't understand. But I don't think it can really be illegal, because once your country has fallen to the point that elections are rigged, how can the laws of your country be valid? If you defraud the system, you defraud the entire system. If they can cheat, we can kill.

No personal phone calls at work, fine, no work calls at outside of work.
Then explain the need for a cell phone.
And get them to give you a company cell.

how bout we regulate the malpractice insurance premiums instead? Though I suppose that won't work either.
you don't fuck with 911 and not expect to get everything they can find thrown at you.
Now if he made it call pizza hut and they called it cyber terrorism I'd be outraged, but he made it call 911. He gambled and lost.
poke a dog and get bitten.
of course I did. There was internet porn pre-1993.
For the right price....

Imagine if apple would have shyed away from the ipod because of the "evil dangers of MP3". this never would have been possible.

Thank you, for a second I thought I was crazy. Then I realized this poster either quoted the wrong post, or is a complete idiot.

you know, the one from the IBM ad. It aired during the playoffs, so even joe-six pack knows who Linux is now.

It's funny that you have to go outside the US to find journalism like this. What the hell is that about?

Perhaps we should try killing someone instead.
