In a world where quoting the constitution is flamebait, I am proud to be on the outside, disaffected and disenfranchised. My dreams cannot fit inside their ballot boxes.

Yeah. Slavery, just like mandatory public school. What part of mandatory compliance do you not understand???
Just because you assign your morals to the issue so that you can justify government interference in an individuals life, doesn't make it right, or good or any other moral term you frame your arguments in. If the state must resort to coercion and placing individuals under duress until the point of compliance... that isn't freedom of association, which by the way is guaranteed by the constitution. You know that pesky document that was supposed to limit the federal government to Bill of Rights enforcement, nothing else, as it states in the very text itself.
Mandatory servitude is slavery, regardless of what the law of man says. Natural rights, my friend, do not bend to the will of government, they always exist and are sometimes enforced by the more astute and adventurous among us. Why should a fat, rich old whiteman (a skinny blackman is fine too...) be able to send poor young boys and girls off to their deaths to defend the profits of oil companies, defense contractors and global corporate interests?
That is, in the end what this is about. National service for all able-bodied citizens, just as both puppets stated in the National Service Forum. They would gladly send you (or your sons and now daughters) to slave in the field or die halfway around the world for corporate America. Mandatory service is a slippery slope, regardless of your moral opinion.
Washington handles slippery slopes like Bob Dole skiing down the Matterhorn. To give them more is absurd.
As for me, if they start a draft, I will make [Something that can get me sent to Guantanamo]. You see, it is not that I don't want to fight, I just think we are fighting the wrong government.
This is a really good thing for the Vegas valley and the Military, who will also be a customer (Nellis, Indian Springs, Nevada Test Site). As a resident of the Vegas valley I can assure you that we need more projects like this. It would be nice if they could use these Solar farms to produce all the energy Sotuhern Nevada needs, but I dont see that happening any time soon.
On more of./'esque note, it would be nice to see a boost in jobs for engineers/IT because of this new plant, which needs trained technicians to keep it running.
On a political note, you have that pinko Sen. Harry Reid touting it like he had some hand in getting this project done. Sorry you bastard, you had nothing to do with it. This will be a privately owned project, no government hand, which in my book is the best way anything can be done.
Funny how all we have in office these days are communists and fascists...
I am serious. I should hope this technology sells.
Rampant consumerism has brought down the price of many good pieces of hardware that I own. Who doesn't want to own a pair of eyephones from a Gibson novel? Once I get my hands on one* I am going to modify a laptop so that it doesnt have a monitor (ono sendai anyone?).
*One being a good pair of inexpensive high-resolution goggles that dont make me look like a spinal injury patient.
I also fired this off to like-minded comrades.
1. My biggest issue with this "Janus" software is the sheer lack of a compatible ADC or DAC protection.
That alone makes me think I can just convert from analog to digital and vice versa.
2. WMA? Honestly? what drug addicted 6 figure marketing director came up with that idea?
I personally prefer open media platforms.
3. To beat Janus all one must do is boot up a good ole copy of Adobe Audition, re-encoding into MP3 works for me.

Well duh, only Spiderman can do that.

I love that, the Japanese need robots*. While in America, we have mexicans that do it for us.
