There are still rock gods, but the number is much more limited now. Take one from the multitude and elevate just like the old days. Everyone else is getting Pandora rates.
I'm not surprised they can't get filters right, they can't get anything right. I joined TalkTalk in December last year as the price is attractive. They are the worst ISP I have ever had the misfortune to sign up with. Go-Live dates that came and went, with no connection. Engineer visits. Incorrect billing. Horrible network congestion rendering internet use nigh on impossible during peak times. The list is endless with my woes. My 12 month contract is up in a few days and I will never re-sign with this company.

Google don't think much of our quaint European privacy regulations however: "American companies will come out big winners, compared to their European rivals. European companies face decades of innovation-paralysis under the new rules. American companies will just reorganize and relocate certain operations out of Europe to mitigate risk." http://peterfleischer.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/dox-quixote.html/
I've had MSSE on my dad's laptop for a few years now. He recently mentioned his laptop was very slow, so I guessed it was overdue for some maintenance. A quick look at task manager immediately flagged up stdrt.exe using lots of resources so I got MSSE running while I checked online to find out what this thing was. It's not new by any stretch and looks to be fairly commonplace. MSSE failed to find anything, even when I scanned the executable directly. I had to install Malwarebytes Anti-Malware to remove it (which it did quickly and easily).
I've removed MSSE and set him up with AVG Free and Malwarebytes.
The posters may not be tarrists, but there is a connection in that they know someone who knows someone who knows someone who is the tarrist who filmed the video. Investigating them is a matter of unpeeling the onion skin.
So true! I propose the immediate waterboarding of ALL Youtube contributers, especially Rick Astley fans, you just can't be too careful.~
Thing is, folks like him probably celebrate AIDS and call it God's wrath on the unclean or something.
I think you're getting mixed up with Gerry Falwell (an equally evil, religious nut) who once said "AIDS is not just God's punishment for homosexuals, it is God's punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals."
Thanks for that paragraph DnemoniX. Lots of people seem to be mistaking destruction of data with descruction of mechanical drive. I can understand the need to destroy, rather than keep data if that data is unimportant. Government emails can hardly be classified as unimportant however. Keeping them for 10* years after an Administration has left office can't be that big a deal can it?
*Random number but you get my point. In the UK our data retention laws are much stricter. UK telecom companies keep data from mobile and telephone lines for 12 months on all customers (this is the same in most EU countries, compliance with the EU directive is between 6mnths-2years). The UK's Financial Services Authority requires all financial records to be kept for at least 3 years, emails for 6 years, and records of pensions transfers indefinitely. I'm sure the US government has the means to keep a few emails from being destroyed.
"The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the force of the Crown. It may be frail; its roof may shake; the wind may blow though it; the storms may enter; the rain may enter -- but the King of England cannot enter; all his forces dare not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement."

Why must there always be an "or what" with some people?
What about just doing something that makes sense because its the best course of action for everyone and won't actually harm anyone or anything? Why must there be an "or what" in this case, what possible good can come of polluting our atmosphere?
Space Laser Platforms sound expensive, I can't see 7.4 million buying many if those B2 Spirit bombers come in at 2 billion a piece.
The Diebold Death Star(tm), would clear the path the a Bush 3rd term nicely.

There is a reason this company has been listed as the worst ISP in the UK as defined by complaints to Ofcom (UK ombudsman) http://media.ofcom.org.uk/2013/09/27/latest-telecoms-and-pay-tv-complaints-figures-3/
Can't someone ban this guy? (getting back my mod points)

I think she'll go away once infringement has been settled. Having settled with Philips and Toyoda this doesn't look much like a troll to me.
This quote from the article got my attention:

+5 informative for this bunch of twaddle? some of you mods need to put down the opium (crops in Afghanistan are now booming) pipe.

Sounds like the first time I saw Union Street in San Francisco.
See, now thats where we differ in little ol' England. We would just visit the local corner shop and just buy a tube.
China can teach GWB alot about censorship. (personally, if this is the kind of shit the Bush regime is going to be censoring, then I'm all in favour).
If you actually rode a bike in any large metropolitan area.. you'd know it's much faster than any other form of transport.
Police mistakenly shoot people in various countries. What's your point?
Lets get some facts straight.
1) Kids are not going to 'stumble' across pr0n. They are going to go out looking for it.
Thats not actually a fact. Anyone that has stumbled across www.whitehouse.com looking for GWB's last transcript will tell you that.
