  1. So here we go... on Lawmakers Debate Patent Immunity For Banks · · Score: 1

    So now the banks have decided that patents only hinder human progress (at least in the industry that rapes people of there money), so hopefully now the full extent of patent bondage can be realized by a large majority. But who the f*** are we kidding the only reason this is going to fly for banks is because they have a hell of a lot of power in the US political(aka fight for domination) structure. Drug patents, Water purification or desalinization patents, Medical device patents, and a whole lot more are really just a why to slow down progress of humanity so that money can be sucked out of a populace. Wait extraction of wealth is the whole idea behind the structure of capitalism, were f***ed!

  2. Encrypted Mobile Communications on Bugging Catches Up To SIP Phones · · Score: 2, Interesting

    With all of the wiretapping/easedropping going on in the US these days, I am looking for a mobile solution. ISPs and Telecom companies are now being directed by the government to keep these backdoors open for them to be able to listen in on communications.

    There has to be a way to get a secure/encrypted communication on a mobile device. I am thinking of VoIP on a mobile phone using service providers internet connection or if you are in Wifi range then use that. The idea is to create a system that secures wireless data communication in the US.

    Another idea I had was using Sonopia to mask the data. (for those that don't know Sonopia is a social networking system that allows you to create your own carrier, I think it buys wholesale from the big V). I didn't get too far into the Terms of Use yet.

    Does anyone have any-other ideas?

  3. Here is more info on Executive Order Overturns US Fifth Amendment · · Score: 1

    Don't worry the US government is exempt from this and so are it's minions. Goodluck http://gnn.tv/headlines/14892/U_S_to_freeze_assets _of_those_threatening_Iraq

  4. Same with CopyRights on Music Execs Think DRM Slows the Marketplace · · Score: 1

    Just as copyrights slow the progress and development of new and cheap technology.

  5. kind of like on RFID Injection Required for Datacenter Access · · Score: 1

    Police Departments don't have quotas but if you want to be promoted you better met some requirements(aka promotion quotas). I am sure the company will let you be employed there if you don't what the implant but if you want to go anywhere in the company (i.e promotion) then you would most likely need an implant. Good Luck. I would chill for a bit and try to find another job. One day RFID's implants will be like drug tests, everywhere. Money, Profit, MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE

  6. Booooo on Netflix Throttling Heavy Renters · · Score: 1

    Boooooo, profit wins again. When will we realize that a system that looks at profit as its main objective is not sustainable. But o well let them suck you of your wealth.

  7. Re:Wake up. Digital commodity is an oxymoron. on Digital Music Stock Market? · · Score: 1

    True. So how exactly do you want to get the "sharks" out of the "pool." This is the same idea that Mr. Bush has: rid the world of terrorists and the world will be safe, his means is military violence. what is yours?

  8. Check next to info. on Online Content Cannot Remain Free · · Score: 1

    Another common good(free, widely available information[yes it is privite media but not all]) destroyed by capitalism and the need to maintain/increase price and market.

  9. Sure. on Digital Music Stock Market? · · Score: 1

    Seeing as I feel that digital music is a luxury item, it is perfectly ok to use the market system. When i comes to commodities that I feel are essential commodities for life, the market system will just not do. Markets leave people out and when it comes to essential commodites this will just not do. For digital music, sure.

  10. Good. on Vista To Be Updated Without Reboots · · Score: 1

    This is a good addition to windows i will say. It is a needed feature. :)

  11. Question. on Vista To Be Updated Without Reboots · · Score: 1

    If the restart manager is the only reason for the use of Vista when you could have been using *nix for a while? Are there other benifits of Vista?

  12. *nix on Microsoft to Require 64-bit Processors · · Score: 1

    just another reason to use *nix for servers...

  13. Re:freedom? on Senator Wants to Keep U.N. Away From the Internet · · Score: 1

    Do you really think that The US has faced the realities of it's history? I would say no, the cannibals in Jamestown for one example

  14. Re:Simply selling on Western Software Used to Support Censorship · · Score: 1

    Yes I see the logic but guns have only one use and that is to cause harm, wheather it be to a person or animal guns really have no positive use.

  15. Happens Here too! on Western Software Used to Support Censorship · · Score: 2, Informative

    Everyone gets upset when you hear about another country censoring their population for one reason or another. It happens here all the time though. Next time you hit google up type in "kazza" now go to the bottom and you will see this "In response to a complaint we received under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we have removed 2 result(s) from this page. If you wish, you may read the DMCA complaint that caused the removal(s) at ChillingEffects.org." Now how is that censorship any different then other countrires censorship. You will probably say something like this: "yea but that is because of a law that congress passed." Ok but you really think that in other countries were censorship is happening there are not laws against what is being censored, bet there are. Have a nice day.

  16. Hey.. on Video iPod Oct 12? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    That is my Birthday! Yesss.... Peace.

  17. Well on Music Industry Threatens to Pull Plug on Apple · · Score: 1

    This leads to one conclusion, i guess i will continue to use P2P hahahahaha. !Creative Commons!

  18. HAHAHA on Seattle Axes Monorail Project · · Score: 1

    So now instead of a Mono-rail system you can get rid of the fares on the buses that will only last while gas prices are low and when gas is gone (20 years) so are the buses but the mono-rail would still be able to function that is if the area has sources of power other then coal (i.e. wind solar and nuclear). Well that is what I call planning. Exponetial growth in this capitalist system is based off the idea that we have unlimited resources.

  19. Awsome. on Tiger's 200 New Features · · Score: 5, Informative

    It seems to run a bit quicker with every release, unlike my poor SP2 machine. Go OSX.

  21. iPod Hack on Toshiba Unveils 80GB 'iPod drive' · · Score: 0

    So does this mean that I can replace my ipods 20gig drive with a new 40gig toshiba drive? Also can i replace the crappy 8 hour battery with a new 12 hour one? Just me thinking....

  22. WindowShade Confilct on Apple Releases Mac OS X Patches · · Score: 0

    I updated to the new security update and now WindowShade is not working. I was just wondering if anyone eles was having this issue and if they knew what to do about it i did a reinstall but that didn't work.

  23. I need TV-in on the XboX then TV Pirate galour! on TV Piracy is Next · · Score: 0
