The guy did speak, and he got arrested. He did not get arrested for speaking. The police were there to escort him out because the people running the rally asked him to leave (and he wasn't). He continued to cause a scene, so the police were escorting him out. His resistance to be escorted is what caused him the problem, he became a danger by becoming aggressive with the police escort. While the use of the taser may have been excessive, even after he was handcuffed, he continued to resist the police. That amount of police should be able to handle one person, and a taser should not be necessary. But this has nothing to do with free speech. He didnt get tasered for saying anything, he didnt get arrested for saying anything. He got arrested for fighting and being aggressive with the police escorts. No politics involved at all, stop trying to make an issue out of something else.
Get a passively cooled Mini-ITX pc with an external power supply. No fans and no clicking as long as you have a good hard drive. The passively cooled VIA chipsets are great for many applications and provide me with a nice quiet HDPC. Either way I listen to enough music that I don't hear a thing.
You might think its odd, but that is probably because you are either 16 and not allowed to see boobies or have horrible memories of not being able to see boobies. While I agree that it is odd to make such a big deal about boobies, I don't think the fact that you can drive at 16 has anything to do with being mature enough to see boobs, they are two unrelated things. I hear a similar cry about being able to join the military but not being able to drink. Again, it is ridiculous but the two have nothing to do with each other.
I think bush is thinking of a different kind of pirate...he's afraid captain hook is going to crash his pirate ship into the white house. Im suprised he is scared though, he should know we already have peter pan and the lost boys on our side!
The distribution of wealth in this country is rather bogus. Artists and entertainers are the highest paid people, while doctors and scientists SAVE PEOPLE. To me, downloading music for free is my way of redistributing the money in the correct place (even though i am not a doctor);)
I think the main issue with eBooks is that you need to read from a screen. Long documents can tire your eyes more easily when reading from an electronic device. I always found myself printing large electronic documents to read them off of actual paper. The white on the paper is much flatter and more dull than a screen. Until a computer can simulate nice paper, I will stick to the normal paperbacks. I also have a habit, which I enjoy, of grabbing the paper of the next page while reading, this isnt really possible with computers, but I could live without that.
It is also rewarding to judge your progress through a normal book by actually looking at where the bookmark is. With eBooks, all you have is a page number. There is just something about eBooks that takes away the comfort of reading a nice little book
I think the best solution is like the diary in Harry Potter 2. The ink that sort of generates itself on a page, that would be nice.
Looks like i'm heading to Turkey. But seriously, do people even use Cyber Cafes? I find that most of their policies about pr0n render them useless, especially with public indecency laws.
Do these countries have any idea what other countries are being charged? I think they are just making up numbers that sound good, while making the most money off of it.

I worked with SharePoint once. It is the biggest pain in the ass and sucks at everything it does. Do yourself a favor a forget it.
Now I can watch my pr0n on my way to work on the city bus!
How many times does /. have to post an article about this before I actually go and do it. Lets try a few more...then maybe.
because it looks pretty...something that many companies struggle with
Yeah...ummmm...that doesn't happen to me
I believe the unscrupulous reseller I purchased windows from was http://shop.microsoft.com/
Isnt that a little steep? I think that will make me put away my 802.11 cards so i dont accidentally connect to that signal.
...a daily fact of life.

...you resemble that image, asshole
...the suicide rate at MIT went up another 10% to secure its stronghold on the #1 spot
You mean I spent all night backing up loads of pr0n onto my hard drive for nothing?!
It is because people in North Korea are forced to go to bed at 7:00pm

Yeah, definitely looks like George Lucas got his hands on a video of a girl in front of a BLUE SCREEN.
