    If you want to legally become External to the Internal Revenue Service, revoke your Social Security Number, and your other government contracts. i.e. Driving License (get an International Driver's Permit instead)

    > it forces you to pay them almost 1/2 your money, or you go to jail,

    Show me the law that requires a person to have a SSN - Social Security Number? (or Social Insurance Number - SIN, for the Canadians.)

    Revoke your SSN and you will be _External_ to the Internal Revenue service.

    Don't take my word but do your own research. Here are some links to get you started...

    > it controls many aspects of your life, that you must pay for if you disobey them, and go to jail if you do not pay.

    You mean like "requiring" a driving license, a marriage license, etc?

    Stop going to the government and asking for permission.

    For example: Get an International Drivers Permit (get it issued outside America since it is not valid in the place of issue; this way you can use it inside America.) Instead of getting a marriage license (making the government a 3rd party), get a Marriage Certificate, etc.

    Numbers are observable? So when was the last time you saw Pi?
    Mathematics is all about the meta-physical. Even funkiness like Godel's Incompleteness Theorem.
    http://www.myrkul.org/recent/godel.htm

    Philosophy isn't a science? Didn't all the sciences stem from philosophy to begin with?

    Methinks you meant Physical Science deals with observable, and the testable.

  6. Re:What is journaling? on XFS to be released under the GPL · · Score: 1

    The problem: When a Operating System crashes, the File System is in an unknown and potentially inconsistent state (yes, a BAD thing ;)

    The Solution: Basically keeping a log of all file/disk actions, so we can "restore" and put the system in a known consistent state.

    i.e. A user saves a file in an application
    The File System needs to:
    a) access the meta-file area, and create a new entry (i.e create the file)
    b) allocating space for the file and write the data (commonaly called commiting the data.)

    If the Operating System crashed during step b,
    the next time the user tried to read the file back, it would contain garbage since the meta-data said it was a certain size, but not all of the data was written.

    With journalling, i.e. there would be a step c) Log the file write as complete.

    When the system restarts, the File System would start at the last logged action and work its way to the first logged action undoing all the steps, putting the file system in a known and consistent state.

    Usually the log is implemented in a circular buffer, since keeping logs of EVERY event since startup would quickly fill up disk/memory space.

    Not the best explaination, but it should help.

    I wonder if this is because the public found out that the RCMP was intercepting email?

  8. Linux is old technology! NOT ! on The Post-FUD Era has Begun · · Score: 1

    I imagine the FUD is going to get worse in the future. We need to remember that before we start flaming away, we need to be considerate and polite in our corrections. No sense leaving a bad impression on people that will cause them to say "yeah, i heard about those Linux fanaticals..."


    The article also failed to mention that Metcalfe critized Linux for being old technology. (ALL OS's are using old ideas, the basic OS concepts have been around for [around] 20 years.)

    Uhm, hasn't Ethernet been around for around 20 years as well? But that wasn't brought up for some reason ;-) (Metcalfe invented Ethernet)

  9. SSN is voluntary to begin with ! on US Congress Debates National ID Card · · Score: 2

    Sounds like it's time to get an International Drivers Permit (for those of you who don't have one yet.)

    Funny, how the article never mentions that there is actually no law that requires a person to have a SSN. (yes, you CAN work, drive, live, etc, without one.)

    Search www.yahoo.com for the "Sovereignty" movement.

    I take it that you already know about the Social Insurance Number:SIN (or Social Security Number:SSN for the American folk :) making one voluteer to pay income tax.
    i.e. without a SIN/SSN one is not eligible to pay ;-)

    You wouldn't happen to have any more information on the Canadian money system? i.e. where did it orginate? etc...
