I am way late to this party but a rebuttal is in order.
>>Who gives a shit what others where doing?
>Many do. When the people in charge of upholding the law routinely and blatantly break it themselves it shows that the system is broken and corrupt.
Here I was actually refering to who using his log of others actions as a defense for his own. Because others do wrong things does not entitle one to do wrong things.
>>Where you speeding or not?
>He said he was stopped in traffic. Draw your own conclusions.
It was a rhetorical question, not meant to be answered out loud.
>>If yes, you are guilty of speeding, if no, then why the hell do you care what other people are doing?
>Because their actions directly affect him in particular and society in general. You'd care if someone raped your sister, he cares when somebody rapes his rights.
Once again, others actions do no excuse our own we are talking about the proper response to a speeding ticket, not society here, stay on subject.
>>Grow a pair and pay the ticket.
>Seems to me that he actually has a pair as he was doing something to at least bring awareness to the situation, as opposed to some that consider "growing a pair" synonymous with "bending over".
Seems to me this guy is whining about the world being unfair. We all knew that already, start the previously mentioned blog already. Once again stay on topic, you know, the speeding ticket and defending against it.
>>You are still entitled to being an ass.
>Where are you from? The US? If so, keep in mind that your country wouldn't exist if not for people "being asses" to his majesty's gang.
I am from the US and that is exactly why I said he was allowed to complain all day long. It is just that he shouldn't feel that his logical fallacies are going to get him(or her) out of a speeding ticket.
Who gives a shit what others where doing? Where you speeding or not? If yes, you are guilty of speeding, if no, then why the hell do you care what other people are doing? A ticket doesn't say you where the only one breaking the law, it says you where caught. Grow a pair and pay the ticket. If you still have that chip on your shoulder, then by all means, call in the police who break the law. You are still entitled to being an ass. Just don't blame others for the you own actions.
Also, Tu quoque. I linked it so you could get an edumacation. This is why the judge would laugh at your log book as a defense.
So your examples of crap are knitting(making) seat covers and turning(making) a nerf gun look steampunk? So two examples of making something means that a magazine called Make is crap? I would hate to hear how you evaluate brooms. "It swept up my dust but it didn't show me full HD video so I think it is a crap broom."
Some withdrawal is normal, when humans abuse(as in,'habitually use,' not, 'strike') something that started as good but is now needed to maintain a 'normal' life, it is generally considered a problem, no matter the domain.
if "Is it more about the fact that the creative jobs are where the creative people are?" where true then if you where living somewhere where there where no creative jobs, then it would mean that you are not a creative person and if you have moved to get a job then this 'fact' is incorrect. I think the location of creative jobs has more to do with large bodies of water than any other factor.
If the pilot has access to the same video in the cockpit, then they both see the same thing on their respective screens. So he would in fact, see what the pilot sees. It is just that the scope of what is seen is narrow and ambiguous in the summary.
Don't be a twit. Why the fuck would you edit movies or pictures on a netbook? You sir suffer from thinking everybody cares about you, they do not. Please stop. Regards.
Don't forget the British use feet for aviation and MPH for cars. oh and something called "stone" for weighing people. If you want to rail against non-standardization(non-standardisation) go ahead, just remember you are probably just calling the kettle black.
Tesla is asking for a loan, which means it will be payed back, I have a few fedaral loans and no one gives me grief or calls it a hand-out. They just nod and say, "yeah, I have student loan payments too."
second, Tesla makes electric cars using rather advanced battery systems to get a theorectical 200 miles per charge and something more like 100 miles per charge if you believe Jason Calacanis.
So if you can accept that "improve(ing) fuel efficency" is the same as using new technology to make an electric car that people want, then giving a loan to Tesla seems to fit the criteria for this $25B loan package. I hear Tesla is also working on cars for regular people, so why not? They are making a product that people want, and if they succeed in making a car affordable to the masses then they will succeed in increasing fuel efficiency.
Write everything important in a TrueCrypt file system, email it to those who you would want to have it. Then pay for a safe deposit box, in the box put the password(and keyfiles as you see fit). The executor of your estate will be able to gain access to the box and if you add them as a signer it would be trivial, just don't let them have the key until you are dead.
that would make faxing a real pain in the ass. Also, a felony? Taking away someone's right to vote because they are an ass? I sort of like the idea but I want to see how the term ass is defined once it has been through a committee or two.
If its defensive to be where they are not, behind them is just as valid a place to be as in front. and I said 5mph not 10-20, The five second gap is impressive though.
Anywho, few people actually set out to endanger others, they just do it by accident. Besides, the really poor drivers always drive fast so temporarily speeding up just delaying the inevitable.
HAH, yes, driving faster is safer. I knew it, more energy means less danger in an accident, how could I have been soo stupid? Oh what's that? You are making excuses? I thought so, don't be so black and white about avoiding bad drivers. Stopping is a perfectly rational and even easier on the ol' processing center to boot. stop for a few minutes and when you proceed learn about following distances(can't stop on highways? slow down, I know you where speeding anyway, a 5mph delta isn't as bad as people seem to think.). Ever since I started restricting myself to a 2 second gap or MORE no matter what, I have felt much more at ease while driving. Yes I know someone will cut in front of you. Nobody ever mentions that they will also probably be going faster than you as well so that is a bit of a red herring, just ease off that pedal on the right, it works no matter what side of the car the steering wheel is on. What's that? you'll be later? You did plan ahead and leave time for traffic right? If not, that is not my fault and I don't see why you should be speeding and endangering me just because you can't plan ahead. I would say these things are, "common sense," but alas, no one seems to follow them so they are at least not, "common," ideas.
Gear down there big shifter. He said in his own post that he would be signing a contract that said he could never contribute public code again. The community doesn't get any choice. He would have to break his ties with the community. But say he had made some friends in the proccess, and keeps them and just stops contributing code. In that case, what does the company do when he develops something new privately for the company and then it shows up in the public sector? Do you think lawyers are above going to court because someone talked about their work to the friends, who just happened to be working on a similar but competing project?
That was my point, the premises are flawed, the logic wasn't. Once people undersatnd that how the logic works, finding the false premise is a bunch easier. The RIAA is generally not going to spell it out for anyone that is the point of an enthymeme.
Because people need to understand the LOGIC before they can think critically about some thing. Indeed they need to know at least some structured logic for them to even understand what a logical fallacy is. while it may seem easy to understand that:
Sharing IP without permission is illegal.
All P2P File sharing shares IP.
Therefore, all P2P file sharing is illegal. Seeing the fallacy here is easy but being able to detect a more subtle fallacy is more difficult and when someone does it intentionally can be quite frustrating. So really what we need is logic classes, the critical thinking can be learned from other students when they use the logic to trick the others out of their lunch money.
*makes note that Stanistani missed the joke. You do realize the point was that if you are getting hosting from a third party then their in-action could cause a valid site to go essentially offline. Also your DNS servers could be comprimised and you would have the same problem. Even if your ISP or whatever DNS you do use is not vulnerable some server upstream could be and that is all it takes.

Yeah, because the graffiti interface to an old Palm was sooo simple not to mention intuitive.

It can suck and be cool at the same time. Everyone in the world may end up well fed and the SS may use the same tech for assassinations.
If the pilot has access to the same video in the cockpit, then they both see the same thing on their respective screens. So he would in fact, see what the pilot sees. It is just that the scope of what is seen is narrow and ambiguous in the summary.
Just because it is a, "classic," doesn't mean I have to like it.
You do realize that all the established car companies talk about 0-60 times and fuel economy in the same brochures right?
Don't be a twit. Why the fuck would you edit movies or pictures on a netbook? You sir suffer from thinking everybody cares about you, they do not. Please stop. Regards.
I should have seen that coming.

Well if those 550 where a representative sample of the population of Texas then this could be a reasonable conclusion.
that would make faxing a real pain in the ass. Also, a felony? Taking away someone's right to vote because they are an ass? I sort of like the idea but I want to see how the term ass is defined once it has been through a committee or two.
If I'm trolling, why are you feeding me?

You mean speed limits?
