Sigh. I was so sure that the first file sharing case to go to trial would find in favor of the defendant, or the jury would award damages of one dollar. How could this have happened? Did the jurors not know about jury nullification? Did the judge make up the $222,000 number? What's going to happen to Thomas now? Is she going to have to make payments for the next 20 years? I blame the jury. Stupid podunk rednecks! Even if they were instructed to only determine the facts and not the level of punishment, they should have had two braincells to rub together to not trust the judge to give a fair number.
That's a great find. I'd buy it if I had any reason to think it'd be any good. Can anyone write a review of the album? Can anyone find some other mix disc bargains? Maybe like Ministry of Sound or DJ Tiesto? Paul Oakenfold perhaps? I've already searched those three. I say one dollar per album sounds like a fair price to me.
The fact that niggers, homosexuals and females are inferior is pretty much universally accepted. Everybody seems to living in a fantasy world where everyone is accepting and tolerant of everyone no matter how disgusting, or inferior their lifestyle is.
Surprise asshole, just because the government has legislated the bullshit that is tolerance doesn't mean that is an accurate depiction of society. Just because your neighbor won't admit in polite society that he hates niggers doesn't mean that he would welcome a black family moving in down the street.
To all those whiners that bitch about the use of "gay" in online multiplayer games, get off your high horse. Nobody finds the free expression of ideas intolerable except for you.
Shit nigga, if somebody offered me money to whack somebody the first question I'd ask is, "How much are going to pay me?". You're being given the opportunity to commit crimes for a living and you're bitching about it? You need to grow a spine. Tell your boss, "If you're gonna upgrade me to being a gangster I want more money. And don't give me stupid capers like pirating software. I wanna be an enforcer. Beat up people. Intimidate people. That sort of thing."
Then when the police come down on everyone I'd just say, "So what I pirated? Everyone does it."
You need to relax homey. People commit crimes all the time. It's no big deal. You're being given an opportunity to be a professional criminal. I suggest you take it. You gangster dawg!
When you mentioned being beaten up for being a skater, did you mean skate boarder? What year and where was it that you were beaten up for being a skater?
Yes. That's all Imus is saying. Girls that play basketball are fucking ugly. You know it. I know it. Everybody knows it. Why is this an elephant in the room that we can't admit to in public? Who the hell decided to let woman play basketball professionally? Is there even a market for watching ugly she-males playing basketball?
That's nothing. Back in 99 there where these two kids who got real pissed off with all the dickhead students and teachers at school so they brought M16s to school and started capping people. That was most awesome prank I've ever seen.
This kid should be commended. There are too many fucking bums hanging around the city. All they do is stink and ask for free money. I hate fucking bums. Somebody needs to do something about them. What we should have done instead of locking this kid up is give him a bat and a salary and let him go to town.
Offer a bounty to catch cheaters. Pissed off at the guy who's getting a better grade than you because he's cheating? Prove it and make yourself a couple of bucks. With every student looking to do in everybody else nobody would dare try to cheat.
Part of the problem is society coddles these miscreatants. One time in Chem I overheard this guy talking about his solution to not having enough time to do his homework. He copied. If I had stood up and made it public what I overheard I could have fucked him over big time. If everybody did it people would be afraid. I didn't. I don't want to bring to much attention to myself. Live like a ninja, hide in the shadows you know.
Anyway moral of the story: Whenever somebody does something wrong, go psychotic on their ass. People think nobody cares if they shit all over the place. If you show them not only do you care, but you just might break their fucking face for it they'll learn. They'll learn to be paranoid. Next time you're out and you don't have a trash can nearby for your candy wrapper put it in your pocket. Somebody might take an offense to littering. And they might not care if injuring you is an appropiate response.
I say Bullshit. You don't want to be accused of sexual harrasment? More like you're afraid of the embarassment of being rejected. Grow a fucking pair. Everybody's telling you don't do this, don't do that. And you obey. You listen. Is it making you happy?
I say fuck that. I say I do whatever I feel like, whenever I feel like it, all the time. You gonna get fired if you hit on some hot blonde? They gonna ostracize you? You gonna be disappeared? Instead of you being afraid of everyone, they should be afraid of you.
As for you lone IT girl.
Are you hot? Didn't think so. You're of no use to me or anyone else. "Please help me everyone! I don't know how to make friends." You're pathetic. If you did a little exercise, and dyed your hair blonde maybe people would notice you. But you can't. That's why you are who you are. But hey, these people that you want to be friends with, they're probably assholes anyway. Don't sweat it.
I agree. These electronic applications are unfair. My biggest gripe is that I'm a dvorak typist so instead of only taking 5 mins to fill out, it now takes me 3 times as long because it's using the broken QWERTY layout and I can't change it. Also if it was a paper app, they could only fit so many questions. Have you filled out a electronic application recently? Not only do they ask you every detail of your life, but the also administer a personality profile. The whole process will take half an hour if you're lucky. At the end I'm pissed off because they wasted my time. If I'm gonna sit at their terminal for an hour they should pay me $6.75 to do it.
At the end of the whole process I get passed up because I'm unfriendly. Bullshit. Fuck the capitalists. I suggest everyone join me in my endevor to DOS the job application process. Go fill out applications, get hired, and then don't show up for work. Either that or be really bad at it; piss off the customers or whatever.
If they're gonna waste my time, I'm going to waste theirs.

They will be a revolution on May 1st, International Workers Day. Where will you stand? The issue is not Mexicans stealing your American Dream. The super-rich have sold out the working class and are now trying to distract you by making us the scapegoat. I urge all working class people and believers in equality and fairness to rise up against the Senate.
HR4437 Does not reflect the will of the people. Demand justice for all working class people.
The way I see it if you do something stupid and then start bleeding to death as a result you do not automatically have the right to be rescued by paramedics and restored to good health. Being rescued is a nice possibility but it's in no way guaranteed. If you can't get through to 911 because of a DOS or you can't get to the hospital because a drunk driver hit your ambulance that doesn't mean that the hypothetical cracker or drunk killed you.
The delay getting to the hospital didn't cause the patient to die. The hole in patient will all that blood coming out caused him to die.
Naw man, you need to tell the teacher to "lick my balls". That'll teach her to condescend to your family.
Tell her to worry more about the other stupid asses in the class who can't read as well as your son. What are they fucking retarded?
Let's face it. The number of friends you have has NEVER been a measure of success. Intelligence is the ONLY fucking thing that matters. People need to respect that.
Yeah flight school was really hard. But look at it from another perspective. When was the last time you accomplished a goal in a video game that made you feel proud of your achievement afterwards instead of fading into obscurity with every other easy run and gun mission?
So you've never been in a game, then it says "Your connection to battle.net has been lost."? Yes there's the annoying Blizzard ad. There's also the ad for "Please try my game that's like a cross between Zelda and Final Fantasy" and other messages from bots begging for you to visit their url. Outwar.
About the interface. I can think of ways for it to be better. For starters not automatically dumping you into a bot infested spam-fest channel. They could make it easier to play two versus two games like with Halo 2 on Live. Matchmaking. Separate stats for each race. The ability to filter games by map or any combination of filters. How about including squelch in the menu? How is typing in the command/squelch (unrecognizable handle here) not clunky?
You get what you pay for. It wouldn't bother me so much if Blizzard didn't actively lock out competitors from creating a superior battle.net
Xbox Live is cool. Everyone says you'd be a sucker to pay, only the hardcore, it's for nerds blah blah blah. It's only a 5 bucks a month. How much do you spend on your cable bill? Xbox Live is a service that costs money to run and should make money too. Why else would they run servers? To spread joy and goodwill througout the world?
Consider the free service Battle.net. It sucks. There are routine disconects, the clunky interface, and the unregulated spam. Look how great that free service is. I much prefer to pay a few bucks for quality than endure second rate service. If you show the developers that you're not willing to pay they will look to other sources of revenue.
If you recall every week or so there's an article on Slashdot about the insidous rise of advertisments in video games. Then everyone says "Ads suck! I'll never buy!" Well if you're not willing to pay for online service what do you think will happen? You'll get spammed every time you logon.
I for one welcome Sony's effort. Even if it sucks (because it's free) at least it's another market choice. Truly the main reason I bought live was to play Project Gotham 2. If Sony's service were to compete it'd need a killer app.
I actually read Minority Report. I didn't see anything about retina scanning targeted ads or spider robots in it. All I read was a silly story about pre-determinism. Philip K Dick wasn't prescient. In Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep, the sheep's voice was done by cassette tape. He couldn't even envision the microchip.
Give credit were credit is due. It was the modern writers of the movie that showed us a dystopian ad enveloped future. Not PKD.
