Maybe you haven't noticed, but trucks are just as likely to be targeted as tanks if they're in the war zone. Where do you think the fuel and ammo come from ?
It is not "culling" information from anywhere. Cull is to selectively collect, where the culled do not form part of the desired results. You and the summary are using the word in precisely the opposite fashion to its meaning.
So we mug the butcher as well do we ? Just because you live in convenience land, doesn't mean we all do. What about store detectives ? It is not illegal to carry a pack of burgers until you leave the shop without paying. Don't try equating IP with physical goods - it doesn't work.
Judging by your past attitude towards copyright infringement, you are obviously on the side of the real thieves, those who take our natural heritage and culture and attempt to lock it away from the rightful owners. When you invent a whole new musical scale, fair enough, but until then - fuck right off !
Don't tell me, you're gong to vote Nazi^H^H^H^H BNP in the next election.
Prick.
Maybe when you're old enough, you'll realise that they are all as bad as each other. The only alternative is "none of the above" except we don't have that option, so just don't vote. Under a certain percentage, they don't have a mandate.
I realise this is too late, but, when has any of this FUD come to pass ? I live in the uk and apart from the cameras (mostly private, cannot photograph the public, or the public (cannot photograph the private)) there is no-one suffering from these innovations. I still go about my business (law breaking and all) and have yet to be questioned. Is it just a matter of time, or are you all just freaking unnecessarily. The potential is there, but the potential is ALWAYS there, isn't it ?
I am no shrinking violet, believe me, and I already have a history, so if anybody was going to get a tug it would be me. But as yet, nothing. Apparently it is against EU law to work more than 60 hours in 1 week, but there are people advertising on the UK govt. job site for jobs that entail 75 hours a week. Does that look like slavish devotion to the rules ? Get a grip.
That means it happened in 1994. Cell phones were rare luxuries then--you absolutely never used them at home. They were the size of bricks and were for emergency mobile use only.
Maybe in the backward West. Over here in the UK they were already quite small, and reasonably priced. I had a Sony CM H333 which was around 6 inches tall by 1.5 inch by 1.5 inch. I also had a motorola similar to the microtac which wasn't too much bigger (less tall but fatter). The Sony cost me 80 quid on contract and the motorola came free with a contract. People used to look at me funny back then if my phone rang in the pub, nowadays everybody except me is playing with the bloody things.
Who gives a fuck ? The so called libertarians are all over this one, even though the trek universe holds no promise for their ilk. Wankers. IIRC, Christopher Pike was the original (TV) captain. But obviously, Kirk is more well known, so lets go with the money. They won't be getting my money (or my download).
You know, I wanted to comment on this thread, but it's so full of shit already, I can't be bothered. The powers that be have already said that I can choose to not have ads, but that isn't enough anymore. I want them to pay me to participate, as the general state of comments is so bad as to make me walk away silently.
Why don't you fucking grow up ! Bunch of fucking losers. The funny thing is, you all consider yourselves intelligent - twats. I looked at a thread the other day, and fully 90% of the comments were off-topic. What is the point of having titles to this shit ? May as well say, Oi, prick, and seeing what results.

How is this open source ? You can already read what goes into a book, so the source isn't hidden. Maybe they meant community contributed and owned ? Copyright is the issue, not authorship.
If you give out free food, you are automatically warranting its edibility or committing assault. Besides which, it is illegal to give out food in the EU without a licence and several H&S certificates now. No such thing with software. Use at your own risk as always. If you pay for software, they are charging to cover the liability. If I show you my source, I am not forcing you to compile it and use it. I'm pretty sure mathematics contains many dangerous formulae, but they still give it away in schools.
If any of you are expecting sensible translations out of this, forget it.
I am reading a pirate* copy of Thomas Covenant right now, and unless I already knew the story and the English language pretty well, I would be lost. The crap transcription causes so many misconceptions it is hard to make sense of the story. So whatever results from this, don't take it as gospel (ha fuckin ha).
Sadly, I did some proof reading for the distributed proof reading crowd a while back, and the assholes are so anal about NOT changing errors, that the resultant text is so bad as to be laughable. I no longer do it because I would rather write my own than promote falsehoods as they do. They prefer you to promulgate transcription errors rather than use your brain about what the sentence actually says. Sorry, no. Being true to the author is one thing, being true to the fucking OCR is another matter.
Here's a tip read it on paper, in the original if possible, or don't bother. Computers are turning it into a game of chinese whispers.

What would the Japanese have thought of Hiroshima if the US hadn't told them what it was ? This was 1908 not 1608. They did have some idea, they even went looking for the iron from the meteorite.
How about you don't put those things on the internet in the fucking first place !
There is a saying - if you owe the bank 4000 and can't pay, you are in trouble, if you owe the bank 40,000,000 and can't pay, then the bank is in trouble.
It strikes me that if anybody can take your critical systems offline using the internet then you have bigger issues than the internet. The first question when tracing any intrusion is, how did they get in ? Well, the system is connected to the internet, is not a good answer. Yes we know hacking is illegal, but how does that help now we have no power/C&C/credit/etc !
Reminds me of a girl I once dated. Visited me in the UK (she was american) and while in the pub she left her bulging wallet on the bar. There must have been £500 in there, about $1000 at the time. I just stared at her for a moment but eventually had to tell her to put it away. Duh. Some people are just born victims.
Do you know what the "God" particle is ? It is the particle that (they hope) imparts mass to matter. Imagine what it could mean to science if we could directly manipulate mass. Light speed anyone ? Without pinning down what mass actually _is_ and where it is located you have problems trying to manipulate it.

I suppose you suggest we disband it and concentrate on swine flu treatment. It costs the average Austrian 2.44 per year, say $3. I expect you have lost more down the back of the couch.

If you can find a connection between arizona and the UK carry on as before.

So people having control over their own systems is a bad thing now ? If you don't want ports blocked, use your own damn system.
Emigrate ! FFS.
To immigrate is to move INTO a country, emigrate is to move OUT.

Why do you need to triple click ?
Double click to highlight, drag to navigation bar.
Of course if the OP hadn't been lazy, it could have been single middle click to open in a new tab.

So what is the compile option for "don't grass me up" ?
Personally, I'm going to dig out my copy of Phoenix and reinstall that. Firefox has jumped the shark.
Not for me, but I'm not running Iceweasel. Or Windows.
