    you know he actually never really said that, don't you?

  2. Re:€0.2 = €0,02? on Portugal Is Considering a "Terabyte Tax" · · Score: 1

    The truth is that the tax per gigabyte for cell phones will be different from the tax per gigabyte for memory cards which, in turn, will also be different from the tax per gigabyte for hard drives. It will be 0.02 euro for hard drives but, for cellphones, it will actually be 0.50 euro (really, 50 cents) per gigabyte.

    In Portugal you can just text a specific number and you know how long it will take the few next buses to arrive.

    Apple sure does like to patent stuff they didn't invent.

    The problem was the presumption that I'm criminalizing anything when I just made a question about a property of a substance. I don't do chocolate, coffee or tobacco because I chose not to. I'm not a fan of any of them. Not because I'm a puritan, which I'm not, those are simply stuff out of the list of things that I do.

    I didn't even complain about any taxes. I didn't blindly reject any kind of pleasure the world has to offer. And I did not impose anything on anyone. I just made a (so I thought) funny comment about those three substances and in return I got a speach about complaints on taxes and asking me if I condemn the consumption of chocolate, tobacco or coffee. I didn't even express any opinion about marijuana or any kind of substance at all. So, yes, the comment made by the AC was ridiculous. And yours just went further in that direction when you implied that I was trying to impose behaviours or opinions on others. It was never, even remotely, the case.

    No, it's just how context flows. If I ask about something, I expect a reply about that. It is because I want to know about what I asked. Period.

    Sir, you don't even deserve an answer.

    But then again neither is smoking tobacco, drinking alcohol, or chocolate for that matter.

    I woudn't know. I don't do any of that stuff either.

    Well, it's about that when I'm asking precisely about that because it was what the parent of my comment asked about.

    Not being ironic or sarcastic here, not even defending your president's answer, just an honest question: is marijuana really proved to be totally non-addictive? Or is it something still up for debate and research?

    ... is that the quantity of movies even worth watching is decreasing by the minute, let alone the quantity of movies that might be worth pirating.
