I heard there are some IPV6-only torrent trackers setting up. Makes sense to reduce the numbers to leechers. Found only one so far though. http://ipv6.torrent.ubuntu.com/
So I navigate around IPV6 sites. What is there different to see or do? Not much. Some IPV6 brownie points, carrots, or something is needed. Sixxs installed rather easily on Ubuntu, just had to issue a command line. The magical-gui installer almost did it though.
Yeah, I can really visualize people in places who don't speak English, have no idea where the US is, have little education or food or water, thinking "I'm going to combat equal rights and freedom of speech. The United States stands for that. So I'll start my war against them. That's the best use of my time. That's the future for my people and family. Combat freedom of speech. When speech is gone, then we will have food." And I'm sure it is just a coincidence these people sit on the largest oil reserves of the world. Don't be naive, no government represents people, they represent business. People are only important as supplies for business needs -- of ideas, labor, buyers, suppliers of voters or soldiers, confirmations of lies.
War is for profit, it's just business. It is planned that way. It has a cost in blood, but that's not relevant. That people are killed or disturbed or dedicate their lives to heroism, country, courage, revenge, anger, madness or family has no relevance to the numbers on the bottom line.
The world economy is now in and out of crisis. I'm positive it will only get worse. The money-based labor and product society is becoming obsolete, it was once useful, but has been trouble for a while. The true enemy is the money-based society, and it infiltrates everyone's daily life, work, relations, and thoughts, on all sides of the erroneously-placed battle lines.
I'm willing to bet there are no terrorists whatsoever, this is all just mass hysteria, induced by opportunistic politics, grabbing of attention and votes, selling tons of security equipment, services, jobs, contracts, news, etc. And much of the world is just laughing or terrified of the dangers of the spiraling growth of such mass insanity, based on mass fear, encouraging state violence, the erosion of rights, and reactionary, aggressive politcs on all levels and numerous countries. I left the US, and although I miss many things, the news often reminds me I am relieved to be far from this utter madness.
Yes, it's a shameless scheme to grab money from people not paying attention. Like the car industry, food industry, vitamins, candy, beer, cigarettes, shoes, weapons, and just about every other business. Smoothly mislead people into spending it and thinking they are happy with what they got. *Actually* helping people, as in applying your knowledge of the subject and advising the most intelligent solutions, is not always relevant, and is frequently called stupid, nerdy, or weird. It rules our society, It's called "business" or "marketing", and it's main objective is to extract your money with whatever product excuse, produce as little as possible, hopefully you will soon send it in the local landfill.

Enough of the.com square limits already. People have learned that they don't even have to remember or take note of the full domain, they just automatically fill in.com. Sometimes I think we shouldn't even have domain names, we should all just use random-string addresses for sites. Works for phone numbers. johndoe at x9tvd2k
"I was just doing my job." -- That's a big whitewash of a lie. Well, you took the job, kept it, and trained for it, and accepted it. Plenty of "jobs" are to create harsh and miserable and humiliating situations, and people accept them. I told you have no right to treatment, I put you back out on the street, I gave you a fine, I evicted you from your home, I locked you in your cell, I told you to please step aside so I can search you. Everyone just "does their job", but nobody makes everyone miserable in a ruthless society.
"No I'm not - but by choosing to join the military you are supporting 'preemptive murder'."
This statement is so flawed I don't know where to begin. You obviously have no real idea why folks chose to join the Armed Forces. There are numerous relief missions that take place every year. Believe it or not, the military does help people regardless of your narrow, and incorrect, view.
Secondly, based upon the above statement, if you pay your Federal Income Taxes, then you support it as well.
For the record, it's the policy that dictates mission. Period. Showing off the 'cool toys' that the military has at their disposal to keep themselves and other safe during a mission is not glorifying.
Yeah, everyone joining the military *really* wanted to do humanitarian work. The military are really all about humanitarian work. Are you one of those shrills put out to pacify the American ideas about their military with endless war-is-the-real-peace-sounding lies?
The needless interventionism isn't something propagated by people down the chain of command. They are just doing there job, a rough job at that. Usually they are thousands of miles from home in some foreign land, just following orders. And the way I looked at it when I was there.
In the US, military work is volunteer. There is a choice involved. Nobody is forced. Nobody is a victim. Even after signing up, those who just leave, at worst get some jail time and loses some measly privileges, nobody is shot and beaten for abandoning the military. And many do it for money, for love of weapons, and of violence. This stuff about all soldiers being selfless, patriotic, wonderful, heroes, and people loving creatures is a bunch of baloney put out by every government in the world for obvious reasons - to make them and their families give up their life and critical thinking for all the usual us-versus-them lies.
Easy to claim "greater good" when you're the one with the weapons, the media, and the money. Poor schmucks who get screwed with lies, bullets, and trauma doing the dirty work later get some combo of a measly check, endless shrink sessions, aimless lives, jail, and a ditch,
It makes me sad that you were modded as flamebait.
You're totally right. Hate on the politicians and leadership, but the individuals who actually pick up a rifle and go off to war deserve nothing but respect. It's a high stress job, we ask them to do things that no person should ever have to do. Some of those guys snap, make mistakes and do things that we wished they hadn't. The vast majority handle that burden with honor and class.
Drug traffic, people traffic, sabotage and the like are executed with honor and class, too. Don't agree? Look at all the antihero movies, mob movies. People love criminals. Being a successful criminal is grand, chic, elegant, world class, jet-set. Wealth, respect, smarts, freedom.
Don't get your morals from the media, look for some people who actually help society, likely in health or education, and talk to them.
Military is the only profession where part of your job description is to give your life for others if necessary.
You meant "where you professionally kill and get paid for it are not breaking the law, in the name of corporations, are not allowed to ask questions, and in any case you and everyone must repeat you are a hero - or else".
Soldiers are men and women (most from poor economic situations) who have chosen for the most part to sacrifice themselves for the greater good of defending our nation in war, and healing our nation in times of disaster.
Um, a bit less on the soldier-hero stuff. Volunteer soldiers are generally naive and confused kids who recruiters promised whatever and fooled, they think they're going to have fun, be rough-and-tough heroes, get laid and make money. Many are ex-cons, drug addicts, and nutcases. When they all transition from "active" to "veteran", i.e., spent and used, they sometimes figure out it wasn't quite like they were told.
Cost of doing business as a RLSH. Join up, kill or be killed, be fearless, live dangerosly, accomplish great feats, don't complain when you are suddenly deep within enemy territory and wikileaks suddenly publishes your name and operational methods. Occasioally, killing the enemy works out both ways.
Why would the military perform a missile launch to beat their chest then deny that they did it? XD
This news is going to be devastating to conspiracy theorists. No wait, denial and facts fuel that fire, nevermind.
To demonstrate that not only they can kill you, thet can do it in front of everyone and nobody will even see anything but boring daily routine, and will poke fun at anyone seeing otherwise.
Why? Simple. It's more fun that way. There is NO excitement in the version saying it's a damned routine flight. That version is a national security threat. Millions of people will die as a result. Of boredom.
Therefore, it was a missile. Chinese. Communist party. War tensions abound. Obama is negotiating terms with Hu Jintao at this very moment, supposedly over the econonomic issues. Saving millions, billions even! from certain death.
It's about time we start using the information age to separate false from true. Centuries-old practices of paid rumor-spreaders and disinformation should have some more chance of being tracked down and exposed. We are all tricked every day, it's time we all start to figure out what is going on, and not just be fed our opinions via factoids filtered for angle and timing.
Anybody ever find that phrase ironic when applied to the military?
Granted, this isn't directly like some of the more egregious examples. Usually, "saving lives" involves killing more of "them".
Exactly what I was going to say! That's just so nice and cute, an ecological, energy-efficient, responsible, life-saving... global military-corporate empire! Marketing bluffs can create the most amazing bluffing baloney...
Microsoft has a pattern for names which I actually think is wise, They choose the name of the thing, not a brand. "Where do I open the Internet"? Internet Explorer. What do we use for a SQL compliant database server? SQL Server. For a graphical windowing interface? Windows. What office program do we use? FreeOffice, QuickOffice, SuperOffice, UniversalOffice, OOffice, something like that.
Well, thinking of it as just any company, not some big corrupt group, their objective could be simply to keep compatibility with this that and the other. Which brings up interesting questions. Open source can be an open specification, yes, but not really, it's just another imposition. It doesn't really guarantee compatibility, short or re-writing huge chunks of something. How could these specs be made? It would perhaps bring forward all kinds of "compatibility profiles", for mail servers, database servers, applications, etc. I believe the army has some of those.

Anyone know if all the millions of home cable and DSL modems are going to be compatible with native IPV6?
I think all you need is to distribute some goodies on IPV6-only sites.
