Here we have an article about Mandelson pushing for corporate interests against the rights of society at large, the very essence of right-wing politics, yet FourthAge accuses him of being an evil socialist. *face palm*
Indeed, having read about half of FourthAge's long long rant I have to agree.
He starts by emphasizing the difference between a socialist democracy and a socialist dictatorship, stating that Orwell considered himself a socialist democrat, which is true, and that "1984" is a warning against socialist dictatorships, not right wing ones, which is also true and the title of his sig.
Then he proceeds to equate democratic socialism with dictatorial socialism anyway, wtf?
I stopped reading when he accused leftists of starting the illegitimate war in Iraq, he lost any respect I could had for his opinion.
Ok honestly, those who follow the japanese scene will know Apple boosted up it's marketing machine in Japan since the last Christmas flunk and has been bombarding the Japanese market heavily about how a cool person you will be if you use an iphone, so is no wonder that it is starting to work.
Haven't you ever heard of "With great power comes great responsibility", it's true, we are still not *that* bad but we are the ones with the technology to really bring 1984 here, and we are already overexposed, if the government got too corrupt overnight we would have no recourse.
Alternatively, you could say that it is precisely our western obsession with freedom and privacy what makes our live much better than other countries.
In any case nothing good comes out of silently taking shit, your post is moot.
Exactly my thoughts, you have a right but exercising that right is illegal. Doesn't that just simply makes the law void? It's like the law just divided by zero.
What programming language could it be? Io? Are you sending the "Destroy all humans!" to the print message of the integer 10? I don't think print takes such arguments... Oh I get it it's ruby and somebody made integers take parameters?

Do we need to burn that much screen for functions that pretty much everybody half competent uses the keyboard?
The UI need to be reorganized and simplified yes, so that advanced operations can be found and used easily, Look at that ribbon, so much space consumed for basic operations and no sign of a way to insert images or tables!
I meant "following official orders" but yeah bad example.
I should have used something that is legal but morally wrong. I could use water-boarding but then they'll complain that water-boarding is nothing like unfairly arresting someone for facilitating fair use (and yes, copyright circumspection).
What about, that's like managing corporate lobbies? Shouldn't that get you nailed?
It's true that these cops didn't kill anybody, that is why they aren't being accused of killing people.
It's a little like saying that if someone steals a wallet following orders then they are innocent because the Nuremberg defense is valid as long as you didn't kill hundreds of people.

You are not telling me VB allows line numbers in its code do you? OMG I just found a new item to my list of why VB sucks.
I think I figured it out! this is a scheme against the home-brew scene!
Think about it, with such a High failure rate nobody would risk to void their warranty, which means no modding, which means no home-brew games!
If I'll still be able to download Linux disc images for free.
Then neither can RMS or God Himself (blessed be His noodlely appendages).
What's this? Dance of the Sock Puppets?
Except RSM has been saying so repeatedly since 1985 so it's public knowledge, you dim wit troll.
Go read about his philosophy and educate yourself please.
Again I agree.

But it's shinyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Actually the surprise is that it took this long.
Danny should be proud.
Troll troll troll troll troll.
Can I get a cookie?
Of course there is! They refused to surrender their keys, so they must be bomb-wielding, child molesting, fundamentally Islamic animal pirates!
You can't use the GPL because you have no right to tell me what licenses I can't use.
The GPL is against the principles Open Source because it doesn't not help me to sell Closed Source Software.

The sarcasm is that I'm sick of reading these BASIC jokes, can't we move to modern languages please? what about
>>> for human in humanity: robot.destroy(human)
What programming language could it be? Io? Are you sending the "Destroy all humans!" to the print message of the integer 10? I don't think print takes such arguments... Oh I get it it's ruby and somebody made integers take parameters?
How is that different from every Windows Edition?
Ubuntu and Aesthetics? NEVA!
... and ads. In the later case you always lose some of your privacy...
I'm baffled by this novel assumption that you can't advertise a product without breaking into the privacy of your prospect customers.
WTF is up with this?

I think you might make a similar choice when it is "do your job or be unemployed."
Wow how do you know what he would do, are you psychic? Quick I'm think a number between 1 and 1000000, guess it!
Just pedant nitpicking but the comparison is apt.

people focus, how do we stop this disinformation campaign?
Not enough, they should mandate gov. contractors to run linux.
Out right lying about the implications of both, jailbraking messing up with baseband, and open devices roaming the network.
The networks are fine, much better than OS X, the old WinMO platform also has been mentioned.
This is just pure bull shit.
What is the spin Apple fans are going to put now? Isn't it clear enough that Apple is an enemy of consumer rights let alone open standards?
