When there's a breakin your system will patch the video security system through to you and pipe your voice to the house stereo speakers and "will simultaneously call neighbors notifying them of what is going on, giving them the option of being conferenced in to the 911 call so they can provide on-sight reporting to the police?"
Beautiful man.
Anyway, all I have to say is, why pay 15 grand for something that's linux-based? With enough know-how, you should be able to do it yourself.
Maybe there are some special proprietary pieces of software( I wouldn't know since the website is excruciatingly slow and the three pages I have managed to load have been quite uninformative), but this sounds like it's just all about the convenience of the set-up.
Umm, wha? The issue is not the legality of an entire operating system but rather localized sections of code in that operating system. In the worst case scenario, if it's found that this code is honest-to-god infringing, responsible community members will rewrite the areas that need to be rewritten, not that it will go underground and die or some such tripe.
I'm laughing too. Sometimes if you include something along the lines of "This is not a troll", or "Here goes my karma, but this just has to be said," regardless of whether the poster had any karma to begin with, or even if the post is at all controversial, it can get inappropriately high moderation, because the slashdot community likes to think that one of the values they hold in highest esteem is free speech, so anyone advertising themself as even the smallest martyr for free speech, gets buko kodos.
The initial post I replied to about conflicting collective values of the slashdot community has it dead on. I think the psyches of many slashdotters are confused and conflicted. They want to be told what to think by the community, and then have their intellect and opinions validated by hordes of like-minded people, even if the values they are fed are inconsistent.
There are two great paradoxes of the internet. Paradoxical because the promise is so often inconsistent with the reality. The first promise of the information age is that the internet will bring us all closer together; if anything, I say that the internet has fragmented society, by giving birth to more american subcultures in a smaller amount of time than in any other era of history. It's becoming more and more likely that the people you know in the real, flesh-and-bones all belong very different, very large online communities that even as an ubergeek, you have never heard of, never seen, and are completely unfamiliar with. Communities that have their own literature, jargon, jokes, songs, art, values, etc. Everything that makes a community a community.
The second unfilfilled promise of the information age is that people will use it to expand their minds and become better people. But--and slashdot is a great example of this--in reality, people do not like to seek out information and ideas that challenges their convictions and ideals. They seek intellectual validation in like-minded others. The internet rather than opening minds, I believes closes them by making it so much easier to find large, comforting groups of people that feel just like you.
Anyway, this entire post is really nothing but typographical masturbation, as I really don't care what any of you think and in truth, most of you don't care what I think either(though you may think you do). But sometimes it's fun to press a lot of buttons on my clicky keyboard and use fancy words.
have a hard time remembering who are the good guys and who are the bad guys. We still hate the RIAA and love Linux, right? We've got so many jihads, I can't keep them straight!
Your difficulty stems from the idiotic moderation system that promotes groupthink(and doublethink, but that's a seperate matter). Just remember that karma is completely worthless, and post whatever you feel should be said, regardless of what everyone else here thinks. I despise collective opinions.
I think the real issue is that the owner of Marz bar doesn't want to lose his license to serve liquor, not nebraskans being prude. The citation wasn't for the images; the citation was for public nudity as per section 9.16.230. 9.16. 240e appears to make it illegal for business owners to knowingly allow "any person," not just employees, to engage in sexual acts, defined in section c at their business, because if this were allowed, it could create kind of a legal loophole and allow prostitution-like activities to go on. If owner Jerry Luth were to allow these kinds of activities at his establishment, he could get in some serious trouble.
The issue isn't the nudity, it's the location of the nudity. I agree with your attitude towards sex and the human body, but the place for it is in private, not at baseball fields, not in bars. Drunk people + naked people is kind of a recipe for disaster. Even if you do feel it's ok to mix sex and business, you still have to agree that it's any business owner's right to decide whether or not he or she wants to run that kind of a business. Melissa's pictures were taken without the owner's consent, and therefore, she is not only in the legal wrong, but also the ethical.
And really, there actually isn't much better for Nebraska police to do. Check out the police blotter for lincoln. Crime is not that high here, and this is relatively important to Jerry Luth anyway, as it could mean the loss of his livelihood.
Here you go
Genuinely important and interesting article that I submitted to slashdot about 3 days after it was published.
Rejected.
I guess naked nerds is more important.
Honestly, it's that it complains about my kernel headers, says it can't find modversions.h or something. I don't know where I should get this, I've looked at kernel.org and didn't see what looked like what I wanted. Running Slackware 9.1 with kernel 2.6 test11.
Radiation? What radiation? You mean electromagnetic radiation? Just put on your tinfoil hat and run a wire from it to a cold water pipe and you'll be fine.

Hey umm, there can be authoritarian capitalism and there can be libertarian socialism. Try not to simplify things so much.
