  1. Re:All 50 States? on Borders Closes the Books on Amazon · · Score: 1

    Addition: Except I still don't know what tax Montanans would pay (local tax? magic out-of-state Borders-land tax?), even though Borders does have a presence here. Maybe all those "hurr they pay 0% tax hurr" people are right.

  2. Re:All 50 States? on Borders Closes the Books on Amazon · · Score: 1

    I'm pretty sure that sales tax on mail orders only applies when the selling company has some kind of corporate presence in that state; that's why some small company in Montana wouldn't charge sales tax to sell honey over the InterTubes to a guy in California. I think. Maybe.

  3. Re:Very specific... on LokiTorrent vs. MPAA · · Score: 1

    And in the next sentence, they say "...and stop all other activities that contribute to infringement."

    Granted, they don't come right out and say, "Take down your site!" They just tell 'em to stop everything that violates copyrights...which is nearly everything there.

  4. Re:The more I read Slashdot... on Internet Porn More Addictive Than Crack, Senate Told · · Score: 1

    It would be nice to have more politicians like you, who actually cared.

    As it stands, there aren't a lot. And, maybe because I'm incredibly bitter or something, I don't think there will be many more. The problem mostly stands with the voters. Quite a few voters either agree with what our dispassionate senators say (scary) or vote without actually caring (scary).

    Correct me if I'm wrong.

  5. Re:Nintendo on Metroid Prime 2: Echoes Launches · · Score: 1

    Question: How does an old NES or SNES cart classify as one of Nintendo's most valuable assets? Or are you just referring to their games in general? In which case you must be misled or something, because I've never seen a GC ROM or disk image or anything.

    Then again, I've never even looked. I imagine it'd be a bitch to get a hold of, though.

  6. Re:I did my part... on Firefox Shooting For 10 Percent · · Score: 1

    I used the same tactic with a friend of mine. He downloaded Firefox and when I showed him the RadialContext extension, he giggled like a horny Japanese school girl. No lie.

    I gave him a gmail invite as a reward. A good trick, I think :)
