And somehow the sins of the past make the sins of the present excusable? That's the kind of self-important junior high mentality bullshit that leads to moronic fucks blowing themselves up on subways.
If you didn't send in your warranty card, you're fucked. If you STOLE the TV, you're fucked. If you abused the TV, you're fucked. The only way you can get any of the services you mentioned is by purchasing a TV legitimately and using it in a normal manner.
Lark? People have been saying that shit since CD's were popularized. Vinyl will never go away simply because there are too fucking many records out there.
You lose the card. You can't cash checks, withdraw money from your bank, shop at the grocery store, go out drinking with mates, buy plane tickets, get on a plane.
All of which is true if you lose your driver's license and expect to pay with credit card.
The point is: it is a limit being put on the actions of society. When you need an ID card in order to buy milk, your life will revolve around whether or not you have that ID card on you, or not.
Cash is your friend.
It may seem strange to the modern citizen, but it is actually possible to live a safe, happy, comfortable life, without needing ID right now. If the ID act goes into place, and its mandatory: without that card, your life will be hell. Restricted. You will not be able to live 'within the so-called normal limits' of society.
I have no ID because I've never learned to drive. I can't buy beer or get into clubs because I don't have ID. I can't get a bank account because I don't have ID. Since I don't drink and don't need a bank account, none of this is a problem, but I'm far from normal.
Think of it as a mandatory genetic modificiation which, if not performed, precludes you from certain society. Like circumcision.
The only people worse than those that blame everything on Democrats and Republicans are those that blame everything on corporations, as if any and all businesses are inherently evil and only mean and nasty people would ever want anything to do with that smelly old money.
Shut the fuck up. Seriously. Shut the fuck up. If you care about running shit on a fucking 286, then you need a goddamned life. Shut the fuck up, go outside, and FUCKING KILL YOURSELF FOR BEING SO GODDAMNED PATHETIC.
No one can distribute my book under "fair use" copyright law, because it wouldn't be, and certainly commercial distribution is right out.
You're willfully missing his entire fucking point. That being that what Fair Use provisions don't cover, simply putting your work into the public domain will. If you want your work to be used by all for whatever purpose they desire, just put it in the fucking public domain.
You must be REALLY fun at parties. You're the twat that hangs around the punch bowl warning people about eating food from a communal source, aren't you?
Yes, you're entirely correct. Things such as race tracks and drag strips don't exist anywhere in the world. Nevermind that organizations such as the NHRA, AMA, SCCA, and others make use of these facilities on a weekly basis. Nah, there isn't anything like that around here.
So what's my point in all this? Well, if you've chosen to give up on the English language and decided that it's not worth your time to improve your language skills, don't blame the language itself. Your skills will only be as good as you make them.
It has nothing to do with MY skills. Or anyone's skills, actually. Skills don't change the amount of ambiguity in English. They don't change silent letters, contradictory pronounciations, or strange spellings. Spoken English isn't any more or less weird than any other language, but WRITTEN English is haphazard at best.
It seems I can.
Well apparently you CAN'T because all you did was come up with some kind of weird references to programming languages and made mention that languages are ever evolving.. Absolutely nothing you said is in any way contradictory to what I said.
Amazing. You're so fucking stupid you reinforce his point and don't even fucking realize it.
Bough, through, rough, cough. Four words, all with the same last four letters. All four are pronounced completely different. IF you've been speaking English your entire life you'll probably remember that by rote, but if you've been speaking a language where certain letter combinations have the same pronounciation across the board (see the French "eaux") it's totally fucking retarded.
English is a horrible language. You simply can't argue otherwise.
So you try to cut the developer's revenue stream up and expect to hide behind the "non-profit, for the good of the community" line... how fucking stupid do you have to be to buy into that bullshit? I'm sure I'll have 400,000 dumbasses jumping on me "What if Sony shuts down the servers!?? HOW CAN WE PLAY WHEN THEY SHUT DOWN THE SERVERS!??!?"
Simple fucking economics. Keep playing, for pay, on the REAL servers. Sony won't close a fucking thing until it's not making them any money. By that time only the most dedicated EQ douchebags will give a fuck and all 12 of them will move on to other things.

Then don't blow shit up with the intent of murdering civilians. Pretty fucking simple way to keep yourself from being branded as a terrorist.
Because he's a fucking Stallman-sucking loser. Simple enough explanation if you think about it.
Thank you, Ted. That was the joke.
Dumbass.

I assume you don't remember when there was a ton of bullshit over pagers in schools because of their use in drug deals.
Instead of being a little tit about it, why don't YOU explain it? I mean, you obviously understand. What's the fucking point?
Uh-huh. Show me a game that has a rating lower than one it deserves. Until then shut the fuck up and die.
Also in "Jurassic Bark" he teaches his dog to sing it.
Remember all this next time you take your car to a mechanic to get some work done.
Due to the mechanical safeguards on coasters, a software failure will not in any way compromise the ride's safety.
You must be REALLY fun at parties. You're the twat that hangs around the punch bowl warning people about eating food from a communal source, aren't you?
And you sound like the typical retarded licker of the Stallman Cock.
The guy runs a successful business based on Open Source software. What do YOU do for a living?
I think it's safe to say he knows a bit more about things than some douchebag in his parent's basement.
Yes, you're entirely correct. Things such as race tracks and drag strips don't exist anywhere in the world. Nevermind that organizations such as the NHRA, AMA, SCCA, and others make use of these facilities on a weekly basis. Nah, there isn't anything like that around here.
Ever notice that the only people that use the word "clearly" are pathetically obnoxious cunts?
