Two things; Never go to management with a problem, go with a solution and show them the money they'll make/save by implementing your solution. Then, if it doesn't work, it's safe to forget it. Management doesn't want to think, but, they do want to make money, if it doesn't increase profits,don't hold your breath. That IS what business is about; profit.
We need a button for Media Company takedown. Everytime someone pushes it, it VOTES down the server of the media company. Now if a whole lot of people were to ping..er..I mean vote, we could keep media companies off the internet until they get with the program, change their ways and release all the artists from contract, come out with their hands up and their pants down and kiss our asses till the cows come home. I think that's only fair for the tolerance we've exhibited for their existence so far. Hey, it's time to make them pay for Disco, Reruns, Sequels, 8 track tape, Vanilla Ice, Ronald Reagan, DCMA, and all the people they've been ripping off for far more than a century now , especially us. Fuck em, we don't owe them a living! Make them get real jobs.
You can only advance as much as your imagination and effort allow. VoTech in many cases teaches a skill that can be put to ones own business. Welding, Autobody, Botany, Barbering/Styling etc. Far less a crapshoot than a college degree and far less cost. Now if you can't set up a shop and advance yourself from there, buddy, maybe you DO need to work for someone else and just concentrate on getting my Coke out with my burgers and fries.
You really need to look up legal definitions of things like ; men, monsters, citizens, people, then come back and repost your sentiments All men may be born equal, but vary in value from a burden to a prize, by their education, accomplishments and disposition. Rather than deport the valueless and burdensome, it is best to deny access to begin with. Nobody said" Give us your poor, we'll take care of them for you and they'll never have to work again, why, they can come here and we'll give them a Cadillac and let them screw our sisters" . In fact the French wrote something mistaken for that on a plaque for a cheapshit copper statue. We didn't say that, but the French can come and take it back, if they don't like it. Better yet, let the seething masses of those yearning to live free, move to FRANCE! If you noticed, Free doesn't even stand for beer anymore.
I'm with you, no need to continue to promote a bad thing. However, I do think those participating willfully in the botnet business, should be made to REPAY losses. Every single cent. If this exceeds their value, the state should extract it in trade for work done to roadways and ditches until every last cent is repaid or the bot supporter dies. Let's hear it for chaingangs! Tired of being stuck in traffic, watching a dozen bosses regulate the activities of one or two people actually working? Fire 'em and put in road crews from the local prison. They don't even CARE what a botnet is and sure as hell won't either when they're digging a ditch in 100 deg F with a shotgun on their neck and a dog at their heel. Let's turn these bad pennies into an asset. Track em down, extradite them, prosecute them and put them to work, right beside the gangstas. We deserve better roads than we've been getting for our money and fewer computer problems too.
Six of one, half a dozen of the other. A college degree is a dead giveaway you'd spend more money on crap than housing for a piece of paper that says you have an education worthy of your vocation. What total bullshit! Save for a few fields of study, colleges are worthless advertisements for political parties, action groups and social welfare for those who have no value to mankind. Even those few fields of study , don't guarantee you will have the education you paid for and will cut you loose on the world with your raggedy ass degree anyway, to give poor service to mankind (and start collecting interest on that student loan). Best off, save your money, study independently, do what you please and quit trying to feed the status quo. You will have put yourself in debt and at the mercy of fools, liars and charlatans, for worthless paper. With it,you will only live a lie as a slave to someone else anyway and help perpetuate the cycle of crap anyway. Honestly you could get more value from a vocational technical school and come away with actual new skills. if you just HAVE to work for someone else . Even vocational schooling is a crap shoot, think of all the IT students on loans who got certified just in time to have all those jobs sucked out to Korea, India and beyond. Hey, the government accredited those schools, so I guess they can soak up the loss on defaulted loans. The average length of a career in the 70s was 20 years, now it is less than 6, you'll pay on your loan longer than that, maybe you even studied longer than that. Fuck em. Find something you like, study it yourself, do it, fuck the rest and fuck anyone demanding a degree (especially Medical)
Tell me more about the topless women part. Do they hang out laundry topless or do they hang out in topless laundromats or both? I mean you ARE downplaying the occurrences to keep from being mobbed by Nerds, yes?
Well, like I said, they're unenforced. When I lived there, there were two black families in the county, who came and went and socialized , just like everyone. They even knew about the statute and recognized it as part of the colorful history of the place. Still at one time, someone was concerned enough to make a law for the county. Kind of strange, when you consider this is not in the South.If people hate something, it is because they fear it.
That's probably the mindset of the people in my hometown when they set up local statutes, (still on the books today, but unenforced). I am from the Middle of Nowhere. In the Middle of Nowhere it is illegal for; a black person to ride a horse through town, to be out after dark unescorted or to shout in public places. I'm sure it means the same thing.
Scammers? Get a 900 number and make EVERYONE pay to talk to you. I guarantee you'll spend LESS time on the phone. Why should you take a loss when people waste your time with their inane babble, needs, wants and desires? I suppose you could get a private cell for those close to you, but, the general public, business interests and anyone WANTING something needs to pay toll.
Hmmm lettsee now. Scientists using themselves as test cases in psych research....Leary & Dass, Lilly, inadvertantly Hoffman, don't think they received proper credit personally, but most don't recognize their credibility BECAUSE of the first person testing. Unfortunately, because of the subject of scrutiny , requirements of detatchment as an observer instead of subject, do not apply , therefore falling outside the stodgy, antiquated procedure of method. Thinking like this, decreases my faith in science in general, as being unable to service itself or evolve (without even mentioning frequency of corruption from outside interests). So take no notice if I scoff and chortle at various "findings" the herd accepts blindly as lemmings without GPS.
I think he is more disturbed by the stigma of the label. These criteria for psychopathy are not much different than basic animal survival traits. By acknowledging his reasoning of right and wrong and making an effort for change only completes him as a human. A human with a brain scaped for survival. Big deal, probably a fun guy to have a beer with. If I recall correctly , NIMH and others are rethinking indications of mental illness,yes? Perhaps we just need to wait for the book....
I hope Snowden remembers the warnings of the prophets Cheap Trick, of some Indonesian junk going 'round. Seems a soldier had his unit fall off from it or some such. It really doesn't sound like Snowden has anything to hide, in fact , if I'm not mistaken, that's the premise of his recent World Tour. So I can see his questioning going something like;
Chapman: I didn't expect a kind of Spanish Inquisition.
[JARRING CHORD]
[The cardinals burst in]
Ximinez: NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Amongst our weaponry are such diverse elements as: fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope, and nice red uniforms - Oh damn! [To Cardinal Biggles] I can't say it - you'll have to say it. Biggles: What? Ximinez: You'll have to say the bit about 'Our chief weapons are...' Biggles: [rather horrified]: I couldn't do that...
[Ximinez bundles the cardinals outside again]
Chapman: I didn't expect a kind of Spanish Inquisition.
[JARRING CHORD]
[The cardinals enter]
Biggles: Er.... Nobody...um.... Ximinez: Expects... Biggles: Expects... Nobody expects the...um...the Spanish...um... Ximinez: Inquisition. Biggles: I know, I know! Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition. In fact, those who do expect - Ximinez: Our chief weapons are... Biggles: Our chief weapons are...um...er... Ximinez: Surprise... Biggles: Surprise and -- Ximinez: Okay, stop. Stop. Stop there - stop there. Stop. Phew! Ah!... our chief weapons are surprise...blah blah blah. Cardinal, read the charges. Fang: You are hereby charged that you did on diverse dates commit heresy against the Holy Church. 'My old man said follow the--' Biggles: That's enough. [To Cleveland] Now, how do you plead? Clevelnd: We're innocent. Ximinez: Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
[DIABOLICAL LAUGHTER]
Biggles: We'll soon change your mind about that!
[DIABOLICAL ACTING]
Ximinez: Fear, surprise, and a most ruthless-- [controls himself with a supreme effort] Ooooh! Now, Cardinal -- the rack!
[Biggles produces a plastic-coated dish-drying rack. Ximinez looks at it and clenches his teeth in an effort not to lose control. He hums heavily to cover his anger]
Ximinez: You....Right! Tie her down.
[Fang and Biggles make a pathetic attempt to tie her on to the drying rack]
Ximinez:Right! How do you plead? Clevelnd: Innocent. Ximinez: Ha! Right! Cardinal, give the rack [oh dear] give the rack a turn.
[Biggles stands their awkwardly and shrugs his shoulders]
Biggles: I.... Ximinez: [gritting his teeth] I *know*, I know you can't. I didn't want to say anything. I just wanted to try and ignore your crass mistake. Biggles: I... Ximinez: It makes it all seem so stupid. Biggles: Shall I...? Ximinez: No, just pretend for God's sake. Ha! Ha! Ha!
[Biggles turns an imaginary handle on the side of the dish-rack]
[Cut to them torturing a dear old lady, Marjorie Wilde]
Ximinez: Now, old woman -- you are accused of heresy on three counts -- heresy by thought, heresy by word, heresy by deed, and heresy by action -- *four* counts. Do you confess? Wilde: I don't understand what I'm accused of. Ximinez: Ha! Then we'll make you understand! Biggles! Fetch...THE CUSHIONS!
[JARRING CHORD]
[Biggles holds out two ordinary modern household cushions]
Biggles: Here they are, lord. Ximinez: Now, old lady -- you have one last chance. Confess the heinous sin of heresy, reject the works of the ungodly -- *two* last chances. And you shall be free -- *three* last chances. You have three last chances, the nature of which I have divulged in my previous utterance. Wilde: I don't know what you're talking about. Ximinez: Right! If that's the way you want it -- Cardinal! Poke her with the soft cushions!
[Biggles carries out this rather pathetic torture]
Hey, I'll one up that by saying "Don't have a fucking stupid social network account to begin with". You can quote me on that. I did. We're nerds, we really don't do social. Not within a structured environment anyway. Is/. not evidence of this? Go to town, look up the fly, see who am I, you can try, then wonder why. So many possibilities, so many degrees, so many fields, so many who would be fly, they are not I and I, aye? Eye think you misrepresent your abilities.
Just think of it as a petting zoo where YOU feed the animals. In a way,reminiscent of the Restaurant at the end of the universe where the Beef takes your order . I would hope it to evolve to pizza parlors with cold beer on tap.

I think that's only fair for the tolerance we've exhibited for their existence so far.
Hey, it's time to make them pay for Disco, Reruns, Sequels, 8 track tape, Vanilla Ice, Ronald Reagan, DCMA, and all the people they've been ripping off for far more than a century now , especially us. Fuck em, we don't owe them a living! Make them get real jobs.
Well since I just Re-financed with e-sigs, I guess not.
You can only advance as much as your imagination and effort allow. VoTech in many cases teaches a skill that can be put to ones own business. Welding, Autobody, Botany, Barbering/Styling etc. Far less a crapshoot than a college degree and far less cost.

SH*T or get off the POTS.
I like the Mel Brooks version of the history, probably more accurate and a Roman soldier with a giant joint, saves the day with a Miracle.

SHHHHHH, if the NSA find out he's still alive, they'll be spying on him too!
