the most effective way to counter an armed criminal is with a trained, armed population.
Oh man oh man... this is what your current government has taught to you people from the USA... you think everything is fixed by putting a bullet[rocket, bomb] in someone else arse.
That is why I do not like to go to USA, because everyone thinks they have the right to kick someones ass just because he pissed you off (remember the quote that goes "if you are not with us/me you are against me") and if you by any chance think that I am not "with you" or because I happen to be a "fuking Mexican" then you are going to shot me...
That is so bad, I really would like you to come to Mexico, to some cities outside Mexico city (yes... we have a problem there), so you can try the sensation of going out at the street at ANY time 24 hours a day, without the fear of being robed or raped or killed or whatever, just because you saw someone in the eyes, or just 'because'.
Do you know that sensation? it is certainly good, and THAT is the normal way man, IT IS NOT normal to have to walk on the street scared and thinking first about what will happen next and looking at everyone waiting for them to shoot/kick/rob you... it is just that, you feel it normal and natural because I think it has been that way before you were born... and that is sad.
So, how to deal with the problem? I will tell you how the CIVILIZED people/countries do it, and I return to our Mexico's city problem. In Mexico's city we have lots and LOTS of insecurity, we have assaults, bank robberies, people hijacking, etc. We could try to solve it the way you USsenians do it just arm everybody and let each other kick their asses, BUT, this is NOT the way.
The way to do it is to look at the ROOT of the problem, and try to solve it, what is our problem? Poverty, extreme and miserable poverty, and that is what the Mexico's City major has been trying to do. It is about trying to fix the root of the problem.
Now, for you/.er I will make an example you can understand. Remember Microsoft Windows? and the way we all cry and bitch because it is very insecure, etc etc... and that it really pisses us of that MS enters the Antivirus market and that it makes patches and patches etc... and what is what EVERYONE agrees on?, it would be BETTER to FIX THE DAMN OS on its ROOTS so by DESIGN it is not so insecure. Read it, the solution is not to PATCH IT , and add other superficial fixes (Antivirus, spam fighters, etc)[similar to your everybody-fuck-themselves weapons solution] the solution is to fix the OS from the Design [read above to see what could work for you].
So, I told you about our problem (in Mexico City), but what about yours?, well as I am not from USA, I do not have complete understand of your problems, but what I can see is that you (I mean the country) have a really big problem with depression, fear, some poverty and paranoia.
Why do you think that some kid would just go into his classroom and kill everyone?, no, it is not JUST because he saw it in a game, it is because all the system surrounding him oppressed him in some ways, maybe his fathers could not give him enough time, maybe also their friends look him weird because he only played D&D and videogames, maybe he saw his president wanted to kill every fucking soul in the planet, and he saw your evening news where they only say BEWARE! BEWARE BEWARE !! WE COULD BE DEAD TOMORROW!!.
We've gotten far too used to the idea that the government is mommy and can protect us
Protect you from what? from yourselves? anyway, the government HAS to do it, that is why YOU [are supposed to] chose your government, if it is not that way, then you are getting screwed and the [other] thing that is bad is not that everyone should be armed but that there is something WRONG with your DEMOCRACY (DCMA, IP, anyone??).
Ok, I hope something of this can get into your head, but I am afraid you people from US are used now to
I heard that in Scotish schools have an incentive program for their children, if they buy healthy foods on lunch (salads, low calory foods, and other non snacks food) they get also some "points", after they have certain amount of points they can exchange them for cool prices like iPods, Xbox, etc.
I would like to be there, I could eat a ton of carrots to get an Ipod =o) and then goto the beach to get some nice color!
And I have to tell it is really overrated. This guy is just angry because his company is going to the ground.
He pissed off the Linux community. Companies which want a commercial option for code management use Microsoft, everyone else, use/ will use an open source alternative. So there is no place for him.
Hehe, the thing is, I agree with you, it is just I could not state it clearly (as English is not my first language "thats unposible!").
What I wanted to say is that it is good to at know "what happened" to Anakin to make him go to the Dark Side, of course I could have read or listen to someones comment but I wanted to know from the "main" source.
But what I (as you) didnt liked is the "how", how it happened.
I think it this way: "it was cool to see that Palpatine was going to be arrested by four Jedis" BUT "it sucked how that happened, as I stated, I was very disappointed by that scence", or "It was cool to see that Anakin struggled between good and the dark side of the force" BUT "it REALLY sucked, as you said, come on it only took him 3 seconds after saying "what have I done" and saying "ok ok, fuck it Dark Side Rulez so WTF I will Cuck ur Sock Darth Sith".
For the love of [whatever]!!! please just let the movies go... buy the DVD if you want to have them, they are GREAT as they where first, if you have the original (unslashed and bashed by Geroge Lucas) you are lucky.
Would you like to see a remake of Ben-Hur?? Although it won 800 Oscars on its time, the movie that won them was THAT. leave it alone, they are called CLASSICS.
What about making NEW films with NEW stories?? you have a lot of stories to plagiarize^H^H^H^H^H^H^H base new movies.
What about Isaac Asimov Foundation Trilogy? what about dosens and dosens of other Science Fiction books/stories that where written 20 - 30 years ago?
Of course, Hollywood is now just exploiting DC Comics and the other houses to suck the most they can from the stories... but, we all know those stories, it sucks! Hollywood current trend sucks, all you suck!! OOOHHH GOOOD LIFE SUCKS...
I agree with you, although I overall liked the movie (it is ok just to enjoy some sweet popcorn), these are the things I did not like it:
In one scene when someone (dont remember who) is landing in the world of Chewbaca they have a long CG animation of the landscape with trees and sea, I think it is so long that I could see that the trees where computer animation. You see, what I like from CG graphics in movies is to to be realistic as possible as for example in LOTR the beasts that the Orcs rided, I KNEW they where not real but, they seemed quite real and the scenes where so fast I could not realize otherwise.
Another thing that pissed me off was the fight between the 4 Jedis and the senator, when I saw the trailer and the plot of the story it seemed (for me) that the scene would be really awesome, because the Sith killed 3 Jedis. When I was watching the movie and the scene begun (the 4 Jedis entering and saying "you are under arrest") I got really happy, but then suddenly after 15 seconds the 3 Jedis where dead, Come on!!! they are not really thaaaat bad!! It was really dissapointing.
Of course, the Nooooooooo! shout of DV was terrible, I think the end of the Scary Movie parody was better acted... seriously, awful.
And when Anakin cuts Mace Windu arm and Darth Sith kills him, and "suddenly" Anakin says "ok, I am on your knees, at your service" WTF! it didnt took to much time for him.
I will have to see it again, but I do not want to pay, I want to see it to remember everything that I do not like it. It was ok because it shows you how Anakin became DV.
From my point of view, Georce Lucas wasted a lot of good plot in the Jedi Temple, Anakin killing joung padawans, mmm he could had added a lot of "good vs evil" though inside Anakin's mind in those scenes.
And the Jedi's murders also seemed a bit frustrating.
Ok, I am sorry for throwing all my anger at you, but I really needed to let it go =o) It is not a bad move 'overall', I like CG animations, I like space and stars histories (I am an Isaac Asimov fan) I like action movies and I am not a die hard fan of anything (so, Ep. I and II where also so so) so that is why I think the movie is ok, but in the "Film" side of it, it is NOT well done.
As you pointed, cheesy dialogues, love scenes, character development, etc... the only thing that saves the day (or night if u didnt go to matinee) is that after the movie ends, you think "it was cool how Anakin die and how he become DV, and how he become to the Dark Side, and how Yoda fought Darth Sith...", this is, just the "things" that happened... I think I can not explain myslef here, but for it it was like to see how things happened was the cool thing, but if I had not seen the other movies it would be an ok SciFi movie with terrible effects/dialogue/etc...

Of course, but as I told you, back when I was in secondary school, computers where just starting to get common use (at least in my Mexico). And we did essays and those things on typewriters, I will sound old but, you should see how my poor fingers ended after endless sheets of:
qwert poiuy qwert poiuy qwert poiuy
And some more difficult patterns like
asdf ñlkjh asdf ñlkjh... and in the 2nd line:
zxcvb -.,mn...
And the worst thing is that no one of us considered that all those would be useful. Fortunately I was programming since 4th grade of the basic school, and I found it quite useful, of course not enough to take the other 2 years of typewriting (I would have seemed like a girl =oS.. or that was what I thought at that time).
But now, when people see me writing they often ask me how can I do it hehe.
n I dunno hv to wrte lke ths when chatin';o)
And of course, I save myself quite a lot of money from buying those useless dictation programs.
I have just remembered, some days ago I had a chat with a 50 or 60 years old man who works in some buisness on USA, he told me how frustrated he is because it is less and less common in the us to have a girl or boy who can take dictation for you (as it was before) and he told me that he had tried to use those dictation programs and they are completely useless.
yep, stupid me In some way when I turned down the Winamp volume the wave volume of the whole machine went down although in the Volume control panel it was still OK...
Oh crap... you see, I am studying in UK right now, and I was pondering to start working after finishing my PhD, because UK £££ are quite better than MX $$$... But of course I was thinking in working on some place like Last.fm or a nice Open Minded (tm) company.
I hope I can find it when I need to =o) as I can see there are a lot of jobs on the IT here in the UK (just uploaded my CV to one page and at the next day they called me)

I know what you mean, back when I was in secondary school we had a Technical Education class where we could chose between some assingments, but in the first year everyone should take the typing class (with typing machines not keyboards), so I learned to type without watching but, at that time in a school with only men everyone thought it was a bit "gayish".
After the first year, I changed to another class, and I never took typing classes again, but I continued programming and found it really really useful.
Nowadays I am trying to learn DVORAK, and I find these kind of keyboards useful as it is really painful to start writing and when I do not know where the keys are I tend to turn to the keyboard and see the QWERTY setup, while my config is in DVORAK...
Another thing I like about this keyboards is how my friends get REALLY pissed =OD when they ask me to use my computer, If it is someone I know will only chat, then I say, sure but... well I only have this keyboards and you should see the face they have after looking at it =OP
believe they are only MS focused developers. They are all really cool, and the ambience is certainly fine but imagine they told me to not go to the work with a Linux shirt (it was a shirt from a Linux Con) and to replace my Linux Pad.. (they of course gave me another of windows, but I replaced it with a pretty natural landscape mousepad).
Although I had a great time working there I can tell you you just could not talk about OS (that is, make a proper discussion about Windows, Linux, Mac OSX and others).
The funny thing is that there where 2 designers (the design "team") that used Mac OSX, and the programmers group (Windows advocates) where always bashing them...
Oh man, that is because you did not worked in this place where I used to work, they are trying to be Microsoft Gold partners or something like that and the Chief is certainly a Microsoft Windows Fanboy (tm).
So yup, I have had the chance to work with two or three MS and Windows fanboys/zealots, whatever
Talking about this, I have had a question for quite some time, what about the speed performance of.NET VM versus Java VM??
Is.NET faster than Java? more reliable? also, Which one generates smaller files for the same amount of (average) code?
And, do you know of any serious commercial application in.NET now? I mean, something as big as mmm Paint Shop Pro or like that, I would have to ask the same for Java, but I have seen some really good (and serious) proprietary applications where I used to work (Mexican Petroleum Institute).
It would be fine to see a comparison of these two similar technologies.
It is something that you do not understand, Think it this way: if I made an exact copy of you, atom by atom, cell by cell, and then just put you to sleep, the new "you" will be you for the world,
That is, I could ask him what was the best threesome lolita scene he had seen on the internet and he would answer the same that you would.
But, you, in your sleep will be dreaming, and doing other things, and you would be totally another person.
Imagine 2 twins, perfectly similar, imagine if when they are born, they are put in a totally similar scenarios so they have the same experiences. So, if you meet one (and you do not know there are two of them) and he tells you he likes chocolate. After that, you returend another day, and you see again one of them, you ask him if he likes chocolate, and he tells you he does, so for you he will be the same one that you saw before.
What I want to note here is that for the outside of the world yes, you would be the same, even your mom could not see a difference but, I am sorry to tell you nope, you will not be "there". You can name it as you wish, soul, conscience, spirit, force, etc. you wont be there, only your RAM would be which will make that other you self aware of him after a while (as he wont be aware of himself for the first ms/seconds)
I am sorry Mr. AC but OS is a bit like God, it is everywhere and available for everyone, if someone from India wants OS they just have to go to www.sf.net and download whatever the heck they want, if they want to improve it then they just have to add whatever they want or they can just use it. Or better jet translate it !.
As fo TFA, i do not have any comment, just to say that for them to think that they are the centre of gravity is quite arrogant, and is once a gain a demonstration (good bye karma...) of how Linux is as every other source of power (whichever that power is) corruption.

It is something that you do not understand, Think it this way: if I made an exact copy of you, atom by atom, cell by cell, and then just put you to sleep, the new "you" will be you for the world,
That is, I could ask him what was the best threesome lolita scene he had seen on the internet and he would answer the same that you would.
But, you, in your sleep will be dreaming, and doing other things, and you would be totally another person.
Imagine 2 twins, perfectly similar, imagine if when they are born, they are put in a totally similar scenarios so they have the same experiences. So, if you meet one (and you do not know there are two of them) and he tells you he likes chocolate. After that, you returend another day, and you see again one of them, you ask him if he likes chocolate, and he tells you he does, so for you he will be the same one that you saw before.
What I want to note here is that for the outside of the world yes, you would be the same, even your mom could not see a difference but, I am sorry to tell you nope, you will not be "there". You can name it as you wish, soul, conscience, spirit, force, etc. you wont be there, only your RAM would be which will make that other you self aware of him after a while (as he wont be aware of himself for the first ms/seconds)
Um, you want open source in India? Make some.
I am sorry Mr. AC but OS is a bit like God, it is everywhere and available for everyone, if someone from India wants OS they just have to go to www.sf.net and download whatever the heck they want, if they want to improve it then they just have to add whatever they want or they can just use it. Or better jet translate it !.
As fo TFA, i do not have any comment, just to say that for them to think that they are the centre of gravity is quite arrogant, and is once a gain a demonstration (good bye karma...) of how Linux is as every other source of power (whichever that power is) corruption.
