  1. Re:Bad guys on Vast DNA Bank Pits Policing Vs. Privacy · · Score: 1

    It doesn't matter what you believe. People have rights.

    I'd rather live in total anarchy than in your dream world.

    I think it would be more important to STOP IT before it became a consistent practice.

    It's easier to defend your freedom than to take it back.

  3. Funny. on Captain Copyright Targets Kids · · Score: 4, Insightful

    On their website, under "kids" I looked up the meanings of some words and phrases related to copyright. Guess what's missing from the list. I'll give you a hint, it starts with "Fair" and ends with "use"

    There would be no gangs, because you could get everything they would offer for low prices at stores like Wal*Mart.

    Would you be more inclined or less inclined to break into someone's house if you knew that they could have a large gun inside?

    Those are the exact tax funded services I mean.

    How does the ATF fucking up a raid mean that Texas isn't a great state, and that guns are bad?

    The federal government is bad. They're at fault there.

    I'm not saying you have to have a gun, but I'm going to. And if you want to protect yourself from what our federal government is becoming, you should reconsider not owning one.

    Just make sure it's very bright and that you identify yourself first thing.

    Remember: It's legal to shoot trespassers if you feel your family is in danger. You don't even have to say "Go away"

    Texas has done a few things right..

    So, why not get rid of the taxpayer funded services?

    That is the answer to the #1 argument against immigrants.

    Oh, and it's only illegal because there is a bad law saying that it is.

    wouldn't someone notice that they're using way too much rubber tubing and try to find out why? At the end of all the computers, there are bean counters who are REALLY anal.

  11. Sony's funny like that. on Sony May Try To Stop PS3 Game Resales · · Score: 4, Funny

    Sony seems to think that we're LUCKY to get games for their overpriced console. With their statements about how people would buy it even with no games, and now this garbage?

    Sony thinks they're too good for us.

    I installed OSX on my dell laptop and it actually recognizes more of the hardware than XP does.

    I've got a 2006 Civic and the mileage is really great, as long as you drive like someone who's trying to save gas. I can go 500+ miles on one fill up, which is about 38 MPG. Plus it's very comfortable. The stereo is nice, the sliding sunroof is a great feature, and the engine is so quiet. That really helps your ninja attacks.

    Who is the government to tell us to be civil? I never asked them to enforce their morals on me..

    Well, my building is my house, and it's set back on 4.5 acres of property surrounded by some thick trees and bushes.. I don't think I'll be mugged here, or if I was, the neighbors wouldn't see.

    But, to not be a jackass and actually answer your question (ha), I would want them to call the police, at least. But I wouldn't expect them to. People aren't friendly and social like you kids believe. We're awful creatures that only group with others because it makes the work easier.

    It's all about the SEP Field.

  16. Re:Digital = infringing? on RIAA Sues XM Satellite Radio · · Score: 2, Informative

    XM uses AACplus at 64kbs (last I checked). And it's better than the radio, in that there's no static.. just dead spots. And the RIAA sued internet stations a few years ago, and they have to pay a license fee.. The RIAA has already said "You're legit as long as you pay" to the internet radio stations. Although, I've heard they're going back after them to force them to use DRM.. The funny thing is, the only stations I listen to on XM and streaming online, are unsigned artists. XMU FTW!

  17. Re:Eh? on London 2006, Meet London 1984 · · Score: 1

    Think about it like this, you don't know why the people are fighting. One can have a gun or a knife. Are you willing to risk your life because two drug dealers want to sell in front of your building?

    People would rather watch horrible things, than people helping other people. That's why people watch the awful news.

    And it's not desensitivity, it's the fact that we don't want to be involved. Getting involved means paperwork and having to lie to the authorities.

    The same kind who sits in their apartment as a woman is being raped on the street out front screaming, and they do nothing.

    Look around for it, it happened in NYC. 38 people totally ignored the cries of a woman being raped. Someone called their brother to ask if they should call the police.. and that was after like 40 minutes of screaming.

    Hey, fucktard, it's not for your commute. People actually travel across water and through the air using boats and airplanes that currently use fossil fuel. These people are saying "maybe solar would be a good idea for airplanes and boats" not "Hey, lets make Slappy McFuckface drive a boat to work."

    Honestly.
