I think the worst part in these shows is when the computer geek in lab enhances the hell out of a grainy surveillance tape. In some cases, he can even do a 3d rotate (ala Matrix) from a single video camera.
I do image processing for a medical device company, and one day the CFO came up to me and said he was a fan of Law & Order and he wondered if it was possible to "enhance" the image like they do on TV. No. No. No. You can't grab a license plate 50 feet away from a wide-angle shot on a grainy 100x100 pixel area...
You were doing pretty good until you got to that. I thought I might actually get a decent answer to why someone voted for Bush. It's too bad yours is painted with greed, but I guess that's the nature of the red beast. Even omitting that point, you still gave no valid reason. But of course with Bush, he has your company's interest in mind, what with all his war mongering and all.
alot of the "pro kerry fanatics" are actually anti-Bush fanatics. If you could just provide them with valid counter-points, maybe we could start rebuilding the torn country. Was I misled into thinking I was misled about Iraq? These are real questions that shouldn't be too hard to answer.
I'm not being a troll here, but it would be interesting to know why you behaved this way? If the "Kerry fanatics" could ramble on for hours trying to change your mind, why couldn't you give a valid and informed reason why you like Bush that would hold water with anyone of average intellect? Even though it would've been a headache for you, do you think your opinion is that unimportant?
There was a reason most of the blog sites predicted a Kerry win -- he actually did. If you look in most states that had e-voting machines WITH a paper trail, you'll find the exit polls and actualy results are within 0.1%. But if you look at the states with e-voting and no paper trail, the results are wildly skewed up to 5% towards Bush from the exit polls. Ohio is the case in point - earlier this year, the president of Diebold said "[We are] committed to helping Ohio to deliver its electoral votes to the president next year". If that wasn't despicable enough, alot of the memory cards holding precinct votes were just thrown in a pickup truck and driven to the central counting area. In one case, the truck had a Bush/Cheney sticker on it... There's just so much bullshit about this election. We need more populated cities or something, because they're the only ones that seem to understand Bush & Friends are driving the country to hell. Moral relativism my ass.
parent is right. your sig is there solely to annoy 50% of us (80% if not in the U.S.). It seems to reference the tired and disproven arguments from the "Swift Boat Vets" so you can give it a rest. After tommarrow, you'll have to accept Kerry as president.
ot: i really like Bush's current defense against Kerry / people accusing him of losing those weapons - "don't make accusations if you can't back it up with proof or facts."
I don't know how he can't say that with a smile on his face--oh wait, he can't wipe that stupid "i know 2+2=4 so there!" grin off his face.
Perhaps the campaign was also worried about being subjected to DDoS attacks.
there are so many ways around this silly little block it's not even funny. bush didn't invent the internet and he can't isolate the largest portion of the internet from the rest of the world. because all one needs is a computer inside the USA to proxy into. (obligitory statement: Al Gore invented the Internet)
I haven't probed the details of the 'site block' but it seems extremely stupid. If the intention is to block """terrorists""" from attacking the website, it's very lame. It's probably a combo of dumb ideas that further demonstrate their "ostrich head in the sand" mentality. foriegn countries might refute the lies on the website and report it, although I think we got a pretty good handle on that. they probably don't want foreign people laughing too hard at the bullshit being fed to half the country (while they happily eat it and ask for more). but of course, all one needs to do is check out google cache or find a SIMPLE proxy server inside the USA. It's kinda like how Ashlee Simpson asked on her website "Ok you people know the internet, I'm going to get rid of all these videos posted on other websites, how do i delete them?". kinda the same thing, except the fate of planet earth is a hanging chad...

Technically, it was first invented by Lord (enter name here) 4 years prior. So this article is wrong.

well it's not free, but that and NetFlix are great alternatives to dl'ing massive files with questionable quality.
I didn't know the internet had worms. maybe it needs to flush its system with some colon cleaner or wormwood.
Hey slashdot, this isn't ain't it cool news

still, it's encouraging to see the U.S. returning to democracy from bushocracy (hipocracy, oilocracy, cheneyocracy, or whatever you prefer)

I agree with you 101% this was actually the topic of Larry King Live last night.
