VALA: *stands, pacing* And as you're mother you will listen to me young lady. There will be no leading of these ships and armies of a mass murdering crusade or else. *Adria watches her, Vala bends to her level* ah...it was worth a try
ADRIA: I know why you believe what you do...but the ancients are the ones who have lied to you...they are the ones who long ago tried to destroy the Ori for their beliefs...not the other way round. Only the Ori share all they learn...the ancients have kept the basic truth of you're existence from you. *Vala walks away* They have hoarded their knowledge and been dishonest about everything. Contrary to what they've told you the Ori most certainly do ascend their followers...and the ancients are the ones sapping energy from humans in this galaxy to empower themselves, that is why they created you. To give them the strength to destroy the Ori, once and for all. That is why all those who cannot be made to see the true path must be destroyed or all will be lost to evil.
VALA: Are you saying this is all preemptive strike...self defense?
ADRIA: it matters not what you call it...the cause is just. And the truth will see us through to victory...
VALA: do you really believe that? Or are you just hoping I will?
ADRIA: *takes a step back* why don't you believe me mother?
VALA: I don't know.
ADRIA: you choose to take the word of an ancient over your daughter, what have the ancients done to earn your trust...
VALA: about as much as you...
ADRIA: in the end... only you can decide the fate of your own soul.
You're true in that a high false-negative rate does not imply a high false-positive rate. But the point you miss is that we already have a high false-positive rate.
Yes, the submitter is using dubious logic, which doesn't even need to be used because there's already evidence that innocents are being caught.Here's some logic for you:
Quite a few people have already been incorrectly accused of piracy by WGA.
There are pirates not being caught by WGA. If someone trying to get caught can't, what about those trying not to get caught?
Every computer accused of piracy is unable to recieve security updates, making it that much more likely to be hit with malware and therefore become a transmitter of such. The more transmitters, the faster the virus spreads.
The majority of pirates will not go out and buy Windows because of WGA. They either don't have the money or don't want to spend it. If anything they will download third-party tools that don't require WGA.
There is no benefit to the Windows Genuine Advantage unless their goal is to get people to purchase Windows 2 or 3 times. Come to think of it, that probably is their goal.
Do you know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I'm going to beat you with till you listen to my commands
Personally I prefer Jayne's version. "Do you know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I'm going to beat you with until you realize who's in ruttin' command here!"

Wow, I didn't know that the US troops with white phosphorus were Muslim! I learn new things every day!

Yeah, all the Christian terrorists who haven't completely destroyed Fallujah. Tell me, with a straight face, that Fallujah wasn't worse than 9/11.

No. What you do is sap off their followers and make their potential followers like us. Followers are their power, without them they die.
No, just a world that realizes that vim is superior. *kills you then revives with sarcophagus*
My mistake. Although with all the shutdown rumors they may decide to add security updates to that list.
You should see some of the posts I've gotten modded informative for.

Somebody already tried that joke. But they used a Wikipedia link to a bunch of real killers.

I'm currently using an onboard nVidia. It's on an ASUS motherboard.
True. But Google was never marketed as an AltaVista killer the way these iPod "killers" are.
Funny, but synthesized voices don't work like that. It's just that Microsoft Sam gets really annoying after a while.
Who called the iPod the "Rio Killer"?
"Killers" rarely work. Name me one that did work.
The game does get much better after you throw away the sodacan. That was basically a tutorialistic part of the game.
