Also, what difference does it make if what you are saying is true, or if we simply cause super-pests to breed and eventually cause an Irish Potato style famine, due to monoculture farming, for example?
This is why organic farming is not just for hippies and phobes.
Personally, I think of it as a very Taoist way of solving these problems--instead of a frontal attack (insecticides) plant symbiotic plants nearby that ward off insects, and things like that. Go with the flow...
Yeah, but as long as we are being pointlessly gouged, I want the rich to pay their fair share. Especially since they're the ones who write the tax laws that tax me to pay for this stupid shit in the first place.
My evidence? People like their Android phones a lot, and are even starting to appreciate some of the differences the way "we" do.
And it's a short hop from tablet to desktop. The tablets are already kinda there, check out Le Pan, for example--a $200 tablet that is really quite good.
Question though: how is it fundamentally different from simply having a slightly strongly stronger public-key-only authentication? Just the fact that that sshd doesn't get involved?
There is no need for this if we simply use the resources we have vastly more efficiently.
Also, google "population control" and you will rapidly find that the most effective way of doing this is very proven to be economic development, with a healthy dollop of education for women.
When people have knowledge and choice, they almost always choose to have fewer children.
Bear in mind it's never been easier to record a phone call. I'd require face to face, if I were you, for the unvarnished truth. And of course that can be recorded, too.
The only problem with your otherwise reasonable argument is that computers are our personal information machines. And just because regular folks don't comprehend the importance of their not being controlled by someone else, doesn't mean it isn't very important.
It's a bitch, though, I agree, getting regular folks to dig it.
lol but how long do you really think that will last?
And should it last at all? Really? Are you sure? For example, I thought Sweden had very liberal and sane copyright laws, but they're sure doing they're damnedest to destroy thepiratebay.
There are just a couple problems with your argument:
1. Affirmative action is nothing like slavery
2. It ignores the historical reality of slavery, and it's effect on the black population.
3. A racist policy is one that seeks to keep a people in subservience, such as apartheid, or for that matter slavery. Affirmative action seeks to raise people up who have been marginalized by society.
Sorry, the world is not easily parseable in black and white terms like you want it to be (as it were). In other words, your analogy sucks.
Although I agree with your sentiment in principle, I have to point out that affirmative action, for example, has helped to create a black middle class in America, and I don't believe that would have happened nearly as fast without laws to back it up.
The problem, for example, is that many employers *don't* just look at someone's qualifications or character when hiring. They just don't.
Like Torque (my favorite, that I used in my own game (see sig)). Or check out Ogre, which is coming along nicely.
Finding help (for free OR pay!) is nearly impossible. Most people just don't have the staying power. I've had many people enthusastically tell me they want to partner with me on my game, and exactly zero lasted more than a few days. Either that, or they just don't have anything to offer.
I made my game by myself, and it's a full featured first person shooter. You can make your cannon game.

Where is your data?

...of killing the damn bill.
I put the video game I spent two years creating up on the pirate bay.
I think we agree that it's only well established folks who are even inclined to complain about piracy.
Yeah, but as long as we are being pointlessly gouged, I want the rich to pay their fair share. Especially since they're the ones who write the tax laws that tax me to pay for this stupid shit in the first place.
Oh I see, so basically another layer of security. Makes sense.
Thanks!
Hahahahahaha, oh man, you crack me up.
Like they're going to think about it that much.
Hah. You watch. It's coming.

If it makes you feel any better, the US has always been this way :-) A somewhat careful reading of US history will show you this.
I had not heard of this--super interesting.

You realize it was the Netherlands that ordered ISP's to block the Pirate Bay, right?
And that the US came dangerously close to Random Corporate Internet blocking (SOPA) just a few weeks ago, right?

You say that like the ToS has some moral authority these days.
When ToS's no longer have clauses that "we can change this at any time without warning" then that would be slightly different.
But would you tolerate your home ISP telling you how many computers can connect via your home network?
Fuck that.
Oh I see, it's merely deceptive advertising.
Thanks for clearing that up!
basically, mod parent up.

Actually, we left troops in Saudi Arabia, which was obl's stated reason for the 9/11 attacks.
However, yes, it is a brilliant work of invention, and should be patentable.
Have you lost your mind?
You are correct. It is profound genius, and should be patentable.
Sure, but these public contests help everyone equally.
Just surfing the logic. I realize there are upsides.
