...the destruction of families taking place as women seek divorces and full-time employment at their children's and family's expense.
Yes, they should be kept barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen, dutifully following their master's wishes.*sarcasm*
Now, back to your regularly scheduled program....
And what about good mothers and wives?
Since Mark Twain was neither of those things, how is that relevant to the discussion?
Take your bad manners and personal agenda elsewhere.
Note to mod's: Both this post and parent I replied to should be modded 'into the basement' as 'offtopic', IMHO. I just felt it needed said, but it contributes nothing to the topic of discussion.

The only thing you possibly fixed for charliemopps11 was the mis-perception that you are capable of valid analogies.
Now if ImageLogr was actually moving the images from the 'owners' webserver to their own webserver instead of making a copy, then you would be presenting a valid analogy.
Can we just make a rule that any item you leave in an unlocked house doesn't belong to you anymore? Anyone with any sense already figured that out a millenia ago anyway.
'Can we just make a rule that any item you display to the public might be copied? Anyone with any sense already figured that out a millenia ago anyway.'
It's a LOT easier to control distribution at the point of sale...
Well, since that is your criteria, then it follows that it would be a LOT easier to just kill the kids when birthed. No expensive formula, no messy diapers, no needing to find a babysitter, etc....
The correct solution is the parents take responsibility for their actions(having kids), and thus take the responsibility for properly raising them; not absolve the parents from the responsibility, and NOT burdening society with their brats.
If your idea of proper parenting involves 24 hour surveillance and constant guarding like the kid is a prisoner, well, you have already failed on many levels.
It's like building a house. You have to start with a proper, sound, and strong foundation. If you have that, then the rest is easier to build, and the final result will stand strong and sturdy for decades, and able to weather the storms.
Another is that a craftsman does not begrudge good money spent on quality tools of their trade that will last for years/decades[1] with proper care. It's considered a sound investment that pays back across the board.
I can't keep a straight face or my sanity with that line.
Okay n00b[1], here's how it works:
1. There will soon be an 'App for that' 2. Some start-up will sell you a virtual coal mine. 3. It will be incorporated into Google Earth/Maps. 4. ??????? 5. Profit!!!!
*continuing offtopic* Thanks for that link! I think I have found my retirement plan.:-)
Idaho? Well, that's okay, since I like potatoes.
My original plan was: 1. grow up (I was 8-10 years old) 2. ??*get assloads of money*??? 3. buy Montana, and move into the middle of it.
Oh yeah, since this is/.... 4. PROFIT!!!!! *end offtopic reply*
Wow! Dugout Dick's face is truly one that 'only a mother could love', but his spirit I find purely beautiful. 'Long live the spirit of Dugout Dick!!!'
Again, thanks!...I had no idea.....
Besides, Montana is getting too crowded, Alaska is too cold, and the '2.' [above] has not worked as well as planned...and I have turned into Max Goldman *sigh*
...but the bottom line is that I'm unaware of an app that will unlock a song rented from Napster To Go if I download one today.
While not an app, a common workaround has existed for these 'rent a song' subscription services for many years.
Record via 'line in' on your pc, save as.wav, transcode to mp3 or whatever. The source can be anything with a speaker/headphone jack, including the recording pc itself.
Not perfect, but it works, and is Stupid Simple*...and tedious.(without scripting and some batch processing)
* YMMV, but any computer literate person should be capable of this.
You sir, have my vote as the coolest brother ever!
I don't know how I missed the original/. article, but I just checked both links...OUTSTANDING!
Please accept my belated condolences, as I'm sure you loved him very much to something this neat for him.:-) I know from experience that you probably encountered resistance from some of the family to pull this off. Glad you stuck to you guns.
I caused an inter-family feud when I scattered my grandfather's ashes at his favorite fishing hole. That was his last request, I promised him it would be done, and it was. The fallout lasted decades, but I would do it again if required.:-(
If everyone had your attitude, we would still be living in caves in Africa.
Don't push the boundaries, and stay in your mom's basement for all I care. But your display of your lack of adventure/exploration/curiosity paints you into a corner from my view.
*hyperbole warning* Real men with balls are explorers, always pushing the boundaries. Real men have the balls to attempt and fail, learning something, and trying again. Real men don't give up until they see their vision through, or die. *end hyperbole*
Humans are renowned for their curiosity, and the mental capacity to satisfy that inherit curiosity.
Therefore, by my straw-man reasoning, I have deduced that you are subhuman.;-)
Your type contribute nothing to our world. You're just leeches; a detriment to our society/species/world.
Win or lose, you should applaud their effort[or turn in your geek/nerd card and STFU]. We all benefit, directly, or indirectly.
There is a reason Star Trek had such an affect on society/industry/science.
"To boldly go where no man has gone before.."
That appealed directly to our species sense of adventure/curiosity.
It's the study of anything that you want to believe could be out there, without any real proof that they exist.
Sounds like dead ringer for theology.
Then again, if I remember right there isn't a legitimate school in the world that teaches cryptozoology, other than maybe in a passing reference in a real class.
While I personally doubt their legitimacy, a lot of theological schools are accredited.
Seriously, if you don't know who Lebron is you either don't know what the fuck basketball is, are just making shit up, or are a borderline retard.
Despite your grossly misplaced arrogance, you left out the most popular option: D: none of the above. You are making some erroneous assumptions with that proclamation:
I/we actually give a rat's ass about basketball, USA sports, or any sports....NOT!!! (BTW, I know what basketball is-I even used to play a lot of it-but have NEVER watched it, but I did not know who/what a 'Lebron' was. I was also wondering what Michael Jackson [MJ] had to do with basketball!)
Maybe I am 'just making shit up, but if by not knowing who Lebron Whoever is makes me a borderline retard, I can assuredly take comfort in the fact that you are truly over the line, and outstanding in that field.
BTW, who(or what) is a 'Beckham'? Another basketball player?
This thread is getting more confusing than getting struck on the head with a football bat.
BITE YOUR TONGUE! Have you even tried? Don't give in so easily! Go down fighting, seeing double, and puking on your own shoes!
Where's your sense of adventure, you piker?!!? You're not living unless you're waking up in a strange place, laying naked next to *insert random gender/ transgender/ pangender/ non-gender here* at least once a week!
I should have known you kids were getting soft when 'bar crawling' evolved into 'bar hopping'.
The tale of the tortoise and the hare comes to mind here....
Or, since you're a youngster, here's the modern version:
There were these two bulls looking over a pasture full of cows and heifers from a hilltop; a young bull, and an older bull. The young bull said....

Successful marketing.
You don't cut your car's brake line, and then complain when your breaks don't stop as expected.
[ my emphasis]
Yo, dawg!
Heard ya like to brake while ya break, so we broke yer breaks so ya could brake while ya break yer brokes.
Well then, I guess it's time to break out the wire brush and some Crack of Dawn® asswashing detergent!

Well, I prefer it straight up, initially. ;-)
But after a few, it seems I cant rite, and cant left*hic!* I mean leave....
My shirt has Vietnamese food stains.....
Well, if it includes nouc mam , it may work...the sensors could be overloaded.
This is the essence of true 'hacking'.
It's not all about 'computers' on 'the internets'.
He is definitely 'hacking' the facial recognition system to give interested parties the ability to avoid/negate it.

P.S. I agree with your point.
Yeah, well, I wouldn't break out the bubbly just yet.
We [USA] are just waiting for the world to bend over, then we'll goatse you all with ACTA.
Nothing personal, as we USA citizens are getting gaped also.
Where's Lawrence Welk and his Fantastic Bubble Machine when you need him?
I'll match your bullshit, and raise you a balderdash and a poppycock too.
He is correct, according to my observations.
Both phrases are marketdroid newspeak crafted to increase profits. Nothing more...they are meaningless outside of that context.
