Stewbacca said- "Two of Hearts", on the other hand, sucks...hard. BUT, in it's defense, it wasn't the defining song of its generation either. Bubble Gum Pop will always be around and will always (mostly) be bad. Is Britney Spears any better or worse than Stacy Q? To be fair, there was good pop back then (Jody Watley, for example) just as there was bad.
There will always be pop music. The difference is this: Barely anyone has heard of Stacy Q. What used to be here today and gone tomorrow has turned into Gigantic Celebrity Pop Icons. MTV and a few other networks, pumped some serious money into making "musicians" into those icons. Maybe those icons used to have some substance behind them, but they haven't in a while.
For those old enough to remember you can correct my assumptions about pop music, but see if this works. Remember all pop music is technically in it for the money.
60's - Music with meaning and protest behind it. 70's - Protest music moving into artistry and power. 80's - Artistry moving into raw power and energy, but losing meaning. 90's - Raw power losing its energy and going inwards. Meaning lost. 00's - Raw idiocy going through the motions to find itself by flying in a million different directions.

There are no such things as three digit UIDs anymore. That's just a myth told to scare kids. Eat your vegtables kids, or the 3 UIDs will come out of your computer and make you write assembler code.
IANAL. I think when companies issue a C&D letter it is a required attempt to protect copyrighted material. Even if it's a grey area.
Let's say someone likes your product or logo. They make a parody of it which is extremely close to your copyrighted logo and they make money on it. You might not do anything about the parodied work. It's good for business, nice homage etc etc etc.
The law doesn't see it that way.
Loosely paraphrasing the law, if you don't enforce it[Your copyright] you lose it. In non profit corporations I have worked for the in the past, this is how the attorneys referred to it.
Anyone with knowledge of copyright law could probably provide more details refuting this.

DaedalusHKX I like to personally believe that there is more to being a man or woman than merely being an upright walking ape with sparse fur. Call it spirituality, call it enlightenment, or insight, whatever you want.
You profess to be an enlightened person.
Herds are there for predators to eat.
But the evidence for your arguments are all very based in animal tendencies.
Unless I missed something, enlightenment is meant to elevate us above such animal tendencies and inclinations. Just because something may occur in nature does not mean we need to mirror it. The Objectivist inclinations to selfishly uphold oneself as the ultimate ideal are somewhat spurious at best. My apologies if you are an objectivist.
I too hunt and fish. I have trained myself in self defense and survival techniques and I'm reasonably confident I could survive. I used to think the same way you do. It's nice to fantasize about how the world would be a better place without idiots in it. Before you do that, think that there are always people smarter than you out there. They may also be thinking how nice the world would be without idiots, and in their mind you don't make the cut.
Why help those who almost intentionally go out of their way to put themselves in danger through ignorance? Because we are human. We are collectively stronger through help and assistance. Although it needs to be a balanced assistance. For the argument of the homeless man on the street. Sure I might give him a handout, so he doesn't starve and knows that somebody give a shite whether he lives or dies. I'll also contribute in other ways that try to fix the problem of why he might be on the street in the first place. Teach the man to fish instead of giving him a fish and all that.
DaedalusHKX, you might think that is weak.
I believe there is a balance to be struck. We can't stand by and not help people who are truly in need, nor can we devote all of ourselves or else there will be nothing left to give.
I will admit in a absolute survival situation I don't know if those ideals would still hold, but fortunately (for now) we live in a civilized society where that attitude should work.
I guess what I'm trying to fully say in a roundabout way is: Those folks who keep repeatedly getting scammed should reap what they sow and finally learn something. If it happens the first time around, they need some help.
I respect your view, but I've been to anarchy (both social and capitalist) meetings.
It's the same experience on the human condition without the checks of a collective government. Everyone's interest were always self centered and no goals were determined or attained. Same way with Congress most times, but I have a better chance of having a voice with Congress than with anarchy. Ideally, an anarchic society is 'what should be' except it doesn't take into account human nature. IMHO, in any society there are always a few bad apples who do not behave in a civil manner either individually or as a collective. In a completely open free market I've never heard a satisfactory argument on what anarcho-capitalism does when someone in the name of the peaceful free market violates an agreement or damages the environment on a large scale.
Also, an entire free market economy does take into consideration those below middle class. Down on your luck? Too bad. There are no services to assist you. Live or die by your wits and fortune. Oh, the market will create a service to help them. They are poor and cannot pay or trade for these services. It's one thing if you are lazy. It's another where cruel fate took a dump on you and pulling yourself up is not a physical, mental or emotional option.
I don't want to lump all anarchist and libertarians together, but they are usually the first to complain about government, but boy are they upset when the services they decry don't come to their aid.
I'm sure there may be holes in my argument, but I've had this conversation with many anarchists. I look forward to your counterpoint. Maybe it will be different.
And I consider any attempts to reform democracy to be a complete waste of time, as democracy is as immoral as any other form of forced government.
Hey chief,
If you think democracy is bad, what form of government do you want to live under?
If you don't want to vote or participate except in a special interest groups which causes some of our problems, then don't.
I'll happily vote and work toward moving 'what is' into 'what should be'. I might not succeed, but at least I'm trying.
Collectively if all the disenfranchised people voted, it would make a huge difference. Having a viable third party to vote for
would move that along. Anyone who's paid attention to my previous posts knows I've already advocated this greatly.
[OK Mods, start your engines. Here's some flamebait!]
When you download a copy of Photoshop, it's a copy. The site you download it from still has it.
Um, this is crap. It's the same crap old argument being ponied around on/. about massing file sharing. Let's break it down like this.
I'm Adobe. I hire programmers to design a product. I sell that product to make a living and pay the costs of my business. When someone does not buy my product and makes a copy of it they are stealing the compensation (ie. denying me money I would have received from that product).
Let's not sugar coat this and not call it stealing. Just because the law hasn't caught up to this doesn't mean it isn't wrong.
And let's not feed everyone a line of crap about "Oh, I never would have bought it so I don't count toward potential loss."
Also, if you want to cite the fact that Adobe charges prices higher than the market can bear? You can have your protest during your bitorrent of Adobe products, but call it what it is --stealing.
Same thing for this fella who 'stole' potential money. Any time real world money is involved in a virtual world it's going to be this way.
For example: I pay Real World money for virtual furniture (The absurdity of this can be discussed later.)
which now gives my virtual furniture Real World value. Thief steals my account (Fraud) and then takes my virtual furniture without authorization to where I don't have access to it. Because it has value, he could potential sell it for Real World money.
Indirectly, the thief might as well fraudulently obtained my bank account authorization and transfered money straight from my account to his. It's all on the same bank server, but do I have access to it? No. Can he spend my money, if he doesn't get caught? Yes.
All true. Some CEOs, marketing and accounting professionals who work at game companies have no concept of game playability. You need to turn that concept into something quantifiable for them. Odd? Testing and surveying seems to help with that. Are there marketing departments out there in gameland doing this? I dunno. But anyway.
Innovation takes time! Valve produces Half-Life. A game that has lasted by it sheer playability. Sure, there were other FPS games out there at the time, but this was an improvement by leaps and bounds.
Also, I don't see Starcraft 2 leaping onto the shelves either. Blizzard is taking its time. Which I hope translates into a awe inspiring sequel. If it was up to EA Starcraft 2 would have been launched a year or two after Starcraft.
I'm getting up there in age. I have kids and I don't have a much time to play which means I'm no longer in the target market. I haven't bought a new game, since HL2 came out. Give me something worthwhile and I'll put my money on the table.
Graffiti, eh? In that vein, then the input device will be a virtual spray can.
Yo vato! I gunna login to my PC. Check it, my dope password! *Pssht* *Pshhhhht* *Psssssssssssssssssssssssssssht*
Really. Default passwords could be simple shapes likes circles and triangles. No need to see a screen.
Complex and strong passwords are more complex drawings. A touchpad sensor could sense that certain coordinates are contacted in a sequence. Throw in a margin of error, so people aren't directly duping your password sketch.
Another way to do this could be touch glyphs. Your password is like playing Simon. Circle Circle Circle Diamond Square. Bzzzzzttt! I would say colors, but color blind folks would get the shaft on that one.
Display: Press the Reg Key.
Color Blind person: I don't know ya bastard! There is no Red key, but there is a green. [PRESS GREEN]
Display: Bzzzzt!
Although, Touch pad sensors would also have to be durable. Ever know the heartbreak of trying to sign your name on a digital screen at the supermarket or store? The screen is scratched to hell and back, and it doesn't recognize your name even if you used 300psi to write it.
Exposing their ignorance in and of itself would be a good thing. Nobody who denies scientific facts should be voted president. I'm not asking for someone who understands the ins and outs of quantum mechanics and relativity, but someone who doesn't deny evolution because some dead guy on a stick 2000 years ago told him not to would be nice.
Exposing ignorance would be wise. Except no one can know everything. That is why you have advisers. The key is finding people who follow reasonably unbiased scientific advisement. Yes, it would be nice to have a scientific genius running the country, but you might as well wish for a philosopher king to drop from the sky.
It should be a balance. Unfortunately, statecraft today involves too much study in itself rather than other disciplines. Most politicos are lawyers of one type or another who need that knowledge to maneuver through the legal morass. Also, you literally need to be a career politician to know the system, gain contacts and find financial support to broadcast your message and grease some palms.
Odd, I don't remember reading anything stating Jesus said to deny evolution.
Now, let's get back on topic and have the flaming and trolling stop.
This is my all-time favorite censor. You see a guy (especially Joe Pesci) who is in the throws of rage and he utters something like this. It's a disconnect with reality.
Swearing, like anger, has an appropriate time and a place. While growing up I was told not to swear at my folks, at my elders and in front of a lady. Which pretty much applied to everyone expect friends at school. Do I swear now? Hell yea!
Do I swear in front of my son.? No. Do I swear at work? You bet! Do I swear during formal meetings. Heck no!
Are we seeing a pattern? I hate to break it to people. Unless you have money and/or power, polite society requires you to have just a little decorum during civilized conversation.
Now, if someone at the dinner table comes at me with a knife or calls me a motherfucking wanker, it's game on!

Anyone who thinks the cops' role is to protect people is sadly deluded
The police must be very deluded. Why is the phrase "Protect and Serve" on the
majority of cop cars? Especially Black and Whites.
The police are an extension of the Executive Branch of government which is to enforce the
laws that are passed whether it's prevention or prosecution.
OK why was I also thinking about that when I heard this?
I was waiting for the scientist who created the material to say,
"Well, we created three boxes out of it for an example."
"Three dark DARK boxes. I think I'll open one of them. AUUUUUUGGGHHHH!"
