Wouldnt it make more sense to say, well, such a system would need to be heavily regulated to preserve liberty. Not really. Regulate the regulators.. That usually works well.
The parties working together on this are not criminals, Oh?
they are public corperations, NY Gov, the last one WAS a criminal
or NGOs who's sole purpose is to help children; ha ha ha
all of them answerable to the people (or a group of people). Not sure how this NGO is answerable to me..
Wouldnt it be more productive and responsible to steer them in the right direction than to gripe about how they will surely screw it up without giving them a chance. Question Mark key is left of the Shift key.
Bullying is wrong, but a crime? This is the same as 'hate crimes'. Actions are what they are. Extra penalties for political incorrectness is dictating thoughts and ideas. You cannot incarcerate someone for having 'disfavourable' views. That's not freedom. Hating blacks or jews or homosexuals or woman is an ignorant & fear based perspective but people go through that. Lynching is criminal and must be stopped/dealt with. The difference is huge.
I suppose this is nothing new. They are the ones who have imposed fines on tv broadcasters for obscenity in the past, aren't they?
It would be nice if they actually focused on communications instead of just the opposite.
GDP is crap. Look at real numbers like CPI, OR..
Look at food prices: UP gasoline: UP airline ticket prices: UP foreign travel: DOWN. Increased military spending adds to GDP. Is that helping you and me? You don't need to be in a foreclosure to feel this.
Lots & lots, eh. Not sure what economic figures your reading but from what I can see that target audience being hypnotized by the newest gadget has shrunk considerably. Regardless, I think the sales numbers speak for themselves.
10 million iphones? What makes him think that people with foreclosures & collapsing currency are going to give a shit about running out and buying a new gizmo? It's just a phone & my old one still works fine. Homeless people will not work for iphones.
On the surface it sounds like a good idea. But what this is really about is something they can point to, to justify getting everyone's dna. "Look it's fine. We can't discriminate based on genes so let's just make it mandatory to get dna from everyone since there is no downside". Why not just say, "Why would we need that legislation at all, since I'm not giving you my dna"? Beware of lizards bearing gifts, because they are always full of shit.
"It would be a devastating blow to our antiquated systems.." This is only true because they will expect us to be their slaves. The return of the Orion Empire. This is going to suck.
Believe it.
Wish I had those years back instead of wasting them in a 'public education/indoctrination institution'. I'm serious. My advice to any child is if you don't want to be there, drop out. It's mostly a waste of time. I cannot honestly point to anything I use today in life/career that I learned in school. Not a one. All you need now is an Internet connection and a library card. I'm convinced that if I had children I could have them well versed in the Greek classics and Latin by 11 years old. We are raising our children to be brainless machines & criminals.
Q3 (and Team Arena) was the best game in this whole group. They f'd up Q4 because the multiplayer gameplay in Q3 is still the best. I still play Urban Terror; it's lower graphics still compensate for the fact that it's play is better than any newer fancy looking games.
Bring back the grappling hook! Bring back the Q3 play! It took me many hours to develop those skills.
It had to be said. They are the group primarily responsible for our genetic creation. Those frucking reptilians were the genetic scientists that created us as a race of slaves. We have some of their dna but some of the original eathers (as well as the cro/apes). So that we would worship them in fear. Guess what? They're coming back. That's the reason for the trend twords female worship. Their queen (asapose th o the Sirian wolfish king) is conditioning us for it. Here they come... Ready? Men, stop acting subserviant to women. It is programming, get it?
Please people. It's very easy. Just go into your settings and look for something that says Protocol Encryption and say 'Enabled'. If everyone gets into this habit, we will all live in a far better world.
In fact, encrypt any application (that traverses the Net) you can. Application layer is nobody's business but your own.
I am underwhelmed to see Seagate joining the cadre of consumer electronics companies that insist on describing storage capacity as 'No. Of Songs' (128Kbps CD Quality of course)
Ever since they bought Maxtor.. I've been suspicious of their strategies.
Oh where are my mod points when I need them?! Well done. You really sound like a christian rock record store owner dick. 'It's nothing to do with the economy'. Brilliant!
It's laughable to think MS would do it, but wtf? Why not? They aren't going to make a nickel more off of their scheme. Why not gpl the servers and no doubt some kind souls would host it for a_while on some crap servers some where. I mean MS should host it themselves but if they are just going to be complete dicks it's the least they could do.
ISP's should change their 'business' name to WEB Service Provider if they are going to make any assumptions about what applications I use and what is reasonable bandwidth. This mentality is part of what stifles Internet innovation, and why we are currently trying to force a world wide web browser to be everything it was never intended to be, ie: a platform in itself for applications. I'm paying for a tcp/ip connection and how I use that is up to me.
"We're grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government." -- David Rockefeller, Council on Foreign Relations, Baden-Baden, Germany 1991
Okay, once again, it's called compartmentalization. People below don't know what the people above have in mind, they just follow orders. Kind of like a function in a program is limited by it's scope but doesn't need to know about anything else. This concept is 101 shit so I'm a bit surprised that I have to repeat myself here.
Organizations fund educational institutions to indoctrinate people into a particular mindset. You think you are studying science, but it's the 'science' they want you to believe. DOH issues mandates to schools to vaccinate children with drugs that create autism, ADD, &c. The school nurse thinks she is doing the child a favor. She is a minion.
Try thinking and using some of that "free will" you talked about instead of parroting the bs you were programmed with dude. Free your mind Neo!
'the level of complicity for either plan to work borders on ludicrus'
The world is composed of complicated systems. Many slashdot readers build complicated systems. It doesn't fit your world view so it becomes ludicrus. This is about as unscientific a statement as they come.
'You would literally need billions of people in on the conspiracy for it to work'
Absolutely not. It's called compartmentalization and it exists in virtually any organization. Does the president confer with you about foreign policy at his cabinet meetings? No. Do they effect you? Yes.
"Could everybody stop saying 'Oh no', or the fucking Cool-Aid guys gonna keep coming in?.."

Their POTS support up to 28.8K now.
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine. Made up my mind to make a new start, Going To California with an aching in my heart.

not sure what they have to do with laptops though

Since the linux scheduler is based on the Mayan calendar,.. how will the machines keep on chugging when we are all dead? I've always wondered that.
seriously. What makes us 'free' again?..
great. They can save $ when they CG the bodies in front of the shagging.
