  1. Re:Mod parent up on FBI Seeks To Restrict University Student Freedoms · · Score: 1

    And it even flows freely from those who admits it flows freely from both sides. If you have to attack something by calling it socialist or anti-American, you're admitting you can barely call it misinformational, and that there are other things that are socialist and anti-American but not misinformational which you want to quietly quash so that you don't have to deal with it logically.

    None of which were done by anyone with any ties to Iraq.

    I was about to say the exact same thing. The biggest difference between the gate system and Trek's teleporters is the distance involved. That and the creators.

    Actually, I was thinking of Celeron. Ironic name, given that Celer is Latin for fast, but it's the slowest processor around. It's pretty much the Pentia that didn't pass QA, sold in order to compete with the Duron.

    Well, primarily that it should be Magnus Penis.

    In that case, you don't want a binary-based distro, because things like that will happen with a binary-based distro. Use Gentoo and you can compile out IPv6 support just fine. Binary packages require things that aren't going to be used to be installed.

    Yeah, because nobody is ever falsely accused of rape and therefore anybody accused but not convicted is a rapist walking the streets...

  9. Re:From TFA on Attorney Sues Website Over His Online Rating · · Score: 1

    You seemed to have missed the difference between being accused of a crime and committing a crime. For example, Mumia Abu-Jamal was accused of killing a cop. Because of a miscarriage of justice, we don't know whether he committed the crime or not.

    I read it in a Scientific American article. I can't find the militia stuff in the article(it might have been in one of the boxes to the side, which are apparently not published online) but I think this is the article.

    The only thing you've done wrong is not mention capability security. It's an interesting technology which parallels microkernels in a lot of ways--both were ruined by inefficient initial implementations.

    Shortly after Jesus dies, his followers cast lots to determine who will replace Judas as an apostle.

    Total freedom is a concept that doesn't exist because freedom does not exist without a qualifier. It has to be freedom of something or freedom for something for the concept to make sense.

    Of course, you failed to mention that they got kicked out of the Olympic Village and the Olympics higherups threatened the USA(and Australia, who harbored the second-place winner evil for supporting their protest) with ostracision from the Olympics if they didn't kick them from their teams.

    Every war starts out supported by a vast majority. It isn't until about two years in that the protests start. It's like that with every war, from Vietnam to WWII.

    Actually, both the US and China are producing "hacker militias". Code Red, for example, was sanctioned by the Chinese government.

    An amendment to CDA banned all discussion of abortion on the Internet. Remember that they first came for the Communists because everybody hated Communists. Hopefully somebody will speak up when they come for you.

  22. Re:Lies, not Truth, Appeal to the American Voter on McCain Wants Ballmer For His Cabinet · · Score: 1
    I've always heard this bullshit about the "racism double standard" but whenever asked for actual evidence of it I always get zilch. Same with political correctness. But this is what mainstream members of the religious right are saying:

    "You say you're supposed to be nice to the Episcopalians and the Presbyterians and the Methodists and this, that, and the other thing. Nonsense. I don't have to be nice to the spirit of the Antichrist." This is the world's number-three cable operator, essentially claiming that anybody who isn't a Baptist(his specific denomination) is working for the Antichrist. And that's just the tip of the fucking iceberg. Chances are, when you try to give your evidence, you'll just give me some vague statement from Lyndon Baines Johnson from the days when he was working to get the Jim Crow laws repealed.
