Dude, please read. I wasn't the one saying that, it was the grandparent, who I was replying to, actually refusing his claims.
I agree with you, the whole issue is fucking stupid. Kiddie porn is awful, the only problem is that a huge amount of things are categorized as such. Forcing 7 year olds to fuck and get filmed is one of the most awful crimes I can think of, but it's quite different from getting a consenting 17 year old to make a porn movie and get paid accordingly. I don't think either is right, but while the first case is clearly a crime, the second should be considered unethical, but not criminal.
Either way, it's one of those issues that has been blown out of proportion in order to advance somebody's agenda. Think of the Children and whatnot.
I leave you with this...
"Child pornography is the only crime that is illegal to watch"
Richard Stallman also thinks necrophilia// As an Atheist, all he said is "After I'm dead, I don't care what happens to my body, research is my first choice, but necrophilia would be a close second". He also jokes about how he enjoys rhinophytonecrophilia (nasal sex with dead plants, AKA: Smelling flowers).
and "voluntary pedophilia" [stallman.org] should be legal, including possession of child pornography.//He's talking about all the cases when somebody goes to jail for fucking a willing 14-15-16-17 years old girl/boy. I wouldn't sleep with someone that young, but if somebody else wants to, and they both consent to it, then let them fuck in peace. He didn't actually support "pedophilia". When he talked about Child Pornography, he didn't support it, he opposed legislation that used the "think of the children" excuse to control the internet.
He doesn't visit web sites [lwn.net]--instead, he sends email to a daemon that wgets the page and emails it back to him.//Most of the time he's on an airplane or some remote location and has no direct internet connection, also, he's old fashioned. He makes the most of his time, using just about every pause he gets to answer email. He gets his mail in daily batches, and it seemed useful to him to get websites he wants to look at in those same batches. Everything without even leaving emacs. Who cares? How does this relate to his political opinions?
Perhaps most infamously, he eats toe jam in public [youtube.com].//Who gives a fuck? Why do we care about this stuff regarding public figures? Let them fuck, eat and fart as much as they want, we should care about their performance in their actual field of expertise and nothing more.
Hopefully not every year, this stupid idea of believing in imaginary space jews should die real soon. Then we can go back to calling it the summer/winter solstice (depending on hemisphere) instead of "christmas"
You are a white supremacist who has done time in at least two states, you have piercings and tattoos on your cock, and you claim OTHER people is garbage?
As Carlin used to say, "It's my job to think about this kind of things". And when you are among the few who can actually see behind the curtain of falsehood and PC bullshit, it becomes your duty to speak up. It gets me in trouble more often than I'd like, and gets me more enemies than friends, but the few friends it brings are the real deal, so it's totally worth it in the end.
As Nietzsche said, "We will have to pay for having been Christians for two thousand years"
You know what, as I started reading your post, I felt "fuck yeah, I'm not the only idiot who thinks this way". Then, your words reminded me of Carlin. Then you meta-quoted him. Thank you for being awesome.
Also, from Carlin, sort of on the subject (Anorexia, a kind of slow suicide, I guess).
"See, somehow, I can't feel sorry for an anorexic. you know?. Rich cunt, don't want to eat? Fuck her. Fuck her. Don't eat! I give a shit. Like I'm supposed to be concerned about this. "I DON'T WANNA EAT!" Go fuck yourself."
"Why don't you lie down in front of a railroad train right after you don't eat? What kind of a God damned disease is that, anyway? "I DON'T WANNA EAT!" How do we come up with this shit in this country? Where do we get our values from? Bulimia, there's another all-American disease. This has got to be the only country in the world that could ever have come up with bulimia. Got to be the only country where some people are digging in the dumpster for a peach pit, other people eat a nice meal and puke it up intentionally. "
We are allowed less freedoms every day, and if you want out, we are even going to be denied that?
Everything is illegal. You can barely do anything without the approval of a government and/or bank. And if you are sick of it, it's not even legal to kill yourself!
Oh, incredible! The LHC must have ripped a hole in the fabric of space-time and we are communicating with an alternate universe, people is actually posting on/. from over there!
How's the weather on your side? Does it rain candy every day?
I once transplanted a server in order to save over 3 years of uptime. As in, we had to physically move the server to a new location. It was a 2 hour trip. The server had a shitty UPS that was just gonna give me 20 minutes at most. So I got a bigger UPS and 2 external batteries, unplugged the server's UPS, and moved both (with the server still running) very carefully, and connected the shitty UPS to the bigger UPS in the truck of the car. A week later the mobo died:(
Around 2002, If I remember correctly, I installed a Slackware 8 machine in a customer's facility. It was an internal fileserver/webserver. I lost contact with that customer, and got an email from them in 2007. They needed a bigger HD. I didn't even remember them.
Turns out, that beautiful server had almost 5 years of uptime.
I truly felt bad when I had to shut it down to install newer software.
Sorry, but you are wrong. There is no such thing as a "culinary" meaning of vegetable. There is only one definition of vegetable. There is also a big group of people that lack botany knowledge, among them, people that cook.
I love cooking, but cooking is not science, and chefs have no right to re-categorize plant life as they see fit.
Come on dude, take it lightly. I'm just trolling a stupid vegan that went all godwin law on us.
BTW, for your consideration, I do hate jews, but it's not racial. I do have every right to hate microsoft, or republicans, or talibans, or any other institution with a political/economical agenda that I think is detrimental to the human race as a whole, right? Well, there is no god, so I take that out of the question when it comes to religion. All I see is a bunch of delusional individuals just getting together to share the crazy. I couldn't care less about that. So, it's not religion. I'll mock your religion because it's stupid just like every other religion, but I don't even care that much about that. Race... well, there are no races. There is no scientific evidence to support the existence of races among human beings, we are all the same, and there are no important secondary characteristics tied to skin colour or anything other such feature. So, I don't care about that either. Want to know what I care about? I care about political groups that spread war, hate and murder. I care about economic powers that tie us back as a society. Because of that, I hate the US government because they are murderers and their acts negatively affect the rest of the world. Just as I hate jews for that, not every jew, just those that are members of the institution known as Judaism. Judaism is a cult, that acts politically and economically upon the world. Religion/Race are just excuses both based on things that do not exist. Race is as much faith-based as Religion, and faith is stupid. So, I have no problem with atheist jews. I have no problem with jews that oppose the murder that is going on in Gaza, and I have no problem with honest, hard working jews that live their lifes without participating in the murder machine that Israel and its ramifications is right now.
So, if you are not a homicidal bastard with an imaginary friend in the sky and a fat bank account made with the help of the jewish cult, we are cool. If you are, well, fuck you too.
A) No, you are a vegan because you like to think you are superior to others, because you thought it would get you woman, and because you feel guilty. B) They are a bunch of idiots, but they are as fun to watch as the westboro guys and get hot chicks naked on the streets. Works for me. C) Woman are pieces of meat, and so are man. We are by definition pieces of meat. Sure, we might also be intelligent and interesting, but why should that take away our meat's entertainment value? C) Not really. I care more about cows than I do about jews. If anything, they should have done a campaign showing a cow slaughterhouse to convince people that the holocaust was wrong. But it's not a good comparison. Cows are cute and delicious, while jews are awful and AFAIK, not edible. Well, at least they make some fine soap.
Well, if you want to replicate one of this solutions, all you need is a joystick, a PTZ (PTZ means Pan Tilt and Zoom) camera with at least 4x optical zoom, and a very cheap computer (atom will do) with a nice LCD display.
You should be able to find a nice PTZ camera for well under 300 bucks.
If you want, I can provide you with the source code to control a Pelco-D camera using a standard joystick in GNU/Linux, just email me: almafuerte (at) gmail (dot) com.
Anyway, I think that's not the best idea. You are spending a lot on the camera, when just about anything he wants to read will be available in digital. You can just use digital zoom and high contrast, or even TTS. Going through the pain of capturing an actual physical book seems pointless.
Fuck yeah. Going to see Roger in March. It's going to make history: 10 shows, 45.000 people will see each show. And the 11th show will be out on the streets, for everyone to see for free. I expect at least half a million people will gather on 9 de Julio Av. in Buenos Aires.
So, we are talking about a million people seeing the greatest show ever.
I already have my tickets, 10th row, 5th show. Ended up paying almost 500 dollars for them, but it was totally worth it.
Android should be licensed in such a way that disallows proprietary drivers.
Porting a new version of Android to a certain device is relatively trivial when you have all the source you need.
Many of this devices actually have working images of, say, Gingerbread, but they are unusable because the manufacturer refuses to provide the source of the touchscreen driver, or, most commonly, the video drivers. You get gingerbread working beautifully, but without wifi, no sound, and no video acceleration (and most phones don't have enough processing power to withstand software playback).
I have several tablets that are outdated just because of this.

Nothing is a miracle because there are no gods and no such thing as a supernatural. Therefore, by definition, no such thing as miracles.
What is next, justifying religion?
Santa is nothing but a training in bullshitting kids. When they are told there is no santa, they fill up that gap with zombie jesus.
Don't like to your kids. Tell them you love them very much and give them a gift, that's all they need. Fairy tales rot their little minds.
Smart kids don't swallow their toys. Stupid kids do. Sometimes stupid kids die. Deal with it, in the meanwhile, don't kill the fun for everyone else.
