I call bullshit. Wealth transferred to non earners is quickly spent, and usually ends up very quickly back in the hands of the wealthy and large corporations (and the government itself). The rich and corporations on the other hand, are known to hoard wealth, and send it out of the country respectively. Also, "non-earners" vs "earners" is bogus, people go back and fourth if you are measuring annually. Unless you are already rich....
Ok, theres a problem with your argument: prescription drugs are only perfectly legal to carry (in the case of controlled substances) if you *have a prescription*. This means its pretty much illegal in most cases people would call purely recreational use. Your argument would make more sense if you substitute alcohol and tobacco, except nobody gets hurt on those deals, because the only barrier is age, and even that is a joke. So explain how moving harder drugs (lets start with just marijuana actually) to a legal but taxed category would cause any deaths. It would almost certainly reduce deaths in the case of a drug with no known overdose amount. There would be no more dealing deaths, no more "dealing". Even though public opinion is shifting on drug issues, especially in light of massive debt and the costs associated with maintaining a constant war on drugs that has never proven to be successful in a long term, meaningful way, we still have all these jobs and sectors that are often subsidized by the government (big time) that do: drug testing, monitoring, counselling, and lets not forget our number one resource: jail. Its big and entrenched, it won't just disappear. Sorry for the run on rant, but man, you have no idea what your talking about.
well if its a dude and it involves his butt you can be pretty sure it wasn't fully hetero. if a chick is lacerated from a strap on you can also say thats not straight. as far as how it could be a "bisexual" injury though, seems like you'd have to be going for both at once....
This has to do with the use of a pseydonym locking people out of all their google services, including paid marketplace apps and other paid products. Its not about the reliability of gmail in general. And as for why? Because if you have an android you need a google account, and you probably 'need' your marketplace apps too. There, I told you.
I can't tell if you are joking, trolling, serious, or some mix thereof... The console you link too doesn't even support hdmi, it is clearly geared toward old console game emulation. I think Sony and MS and both laughing all the way to the bank. Now consumers will have BOTH consoles, accessories and games for both. This is partially because there has been a big stall in releasing the next generation console from both camps, I believe. Consumers want the next best thing, and it isn't exactly there yet. It makes sense that PS3's market share has been growing even though they are despised among the slashdot crowd. Most people I speak too in the market for a console are aware of the fact that they are very similar in power and capabilities. The PS3 works out to be a little cheaper though if you game online (that's many), and it doesn't have the same bad QC reputation as the "3-fix-me" (even Nintendo has noticed and started catering to more 'hardcore gamers' than they had been for the last decade, because of Sony and Microsofts shortcomings).
Frankly, things were, and are still shady in Florida when it comes to voting. Votes not being counted to due to incorrect precincts (error on the part of the state, not the voter), "Felons" who were never felons or already had their voting rights restored. Now they are doing away with clemency, wonder who that helps? There were literally thousands of uncounted democrat votes. Anyone who lives here and votes here (especially if your live in the inner city) knows just what a dog and pony show it all is.
I respectfully posit that Apple is past the "10%" mark, I mean Apple's products have caught on 'like wildfire' compared to 10 years ago without a doubt. If its not an iMac its and iPod or an iPhone or an App store. OS X by itself, with its licensing and hardware restrictions, is probably not going to literally have a majority market share, unless Apple decides to release it for generic x86s. I wouldn't hold your breath for that though.
Actually... in many districts, at least in mine, in Florida (and at least 2 other states I know of), a tail light ticket is a "fix it ticket". Meaning you have to fix it, but the fine is considerably less than a usual moving violation. I believe if you fail to fix it, it becomes a more serious improper equipment thing and can affect your license.
He may be identified with the right wing. I just get stuff asking for more money from the prez's crew. I don't see how this blows his credibility. He's not saying much about politics unless your in the tea party, but that's just a vocal, and easy to make fun of minority. He's really talking about a shift in the kind of spam we're seeing overall, and he seems as credible as anyone else telling anecdotal stories on slashdot. Thanks, have a good one.
In my zip code(33605, check on wikipedia), the average income is 10,500. I don't know what two cars, big house, and cable your dreaming of. Sounds like television for most Americans, not reality. A 'good job' for a lot of people now forced out of their primary career sector (many, many people) is making 27-35K i my geographic area (and I'm talking family age, not fresh out of college). Health care is just too expensive. Weather we pay for it directly or indirectly there is no getting around this fact. Lobbyists would love for us to just pay EVEN MORE, as long as their bosses quarterlies keep going up. Tell me why its not so expensive in comparable western nations?
I call BULL fucking SHIT. Some reference to medicaid discriminating against whites please? I'm not saying its impossible, but I have a hard time believing it. And yeah its an anecdote to your anecdote, illegals do put a drain on the system like everyone else BUT: I personally knew 3 illegals who paid FULL TAXES (no dependent claiming, no whizbang math, just pay to AVOID an audit). They also did not get food stamps, as for job training assistance, I highly doubt it. If they did that means we need it for everyone, not just illegals. Consider this, to get food stamps, medicaid, etc, you need a valid address, soc sec. Some illegals have fake papers (modified SS card of the dead/birth cert, generally I hear) but those fake papers generate a trail if you have valid employment. These guys that are over here for years (yeah, sending a lot of money back home generally), know they can be audited, and thus pay taxes. At least thats how its been explained to me by more than one or two folks. So show me the evidence of illegals getting all these benefits (that a sizeable portion do) or STFU. Because I like cheap food, and I don't really see immigrants taking any honestly 'good jobs' from us except some in contracting (which has more to do with how lax code and license stuff is in your state, how steep penalties are for using unlicensed illegal workers). Where I live they mostly pick fucking strawberries at piecemeal wages that no citizens would accept because they cannot work fast enough in the heat to make it worth their (or the farmers) while. Also they (or us citizens too) are exposed to a LOT of pesticides and other hazards for this low pay. I know your a troll, and I was going to respond anonymously, but fuck it.
Slashdot Mirror
Microsoft has never used arm twisting to maintain market share with hardware manufacturers?... Oh wait they're famous for it.
Because people of all races, namely black people, are never involved in sophisticated electronic theft?

Parent is in the know.
Mod parent up: OP's gripe sounds more like a great opportunity.
Mod parent up. This is known to people coming from more liberal backgrounds I guess, but everyone should be aware.

Lying about and withholding your identity are two different things, on the internet and in the 'real world'.

Wow, the mods are a little feisty today. Didn't realize my post was taking away from the discussion...
Just imagine how great it would be if there was more than 2 effective parties, huh?

Riiiiight. What about the 'big governments' in Europe and their bullet trains? Pinnacles of human achievement or an example of how it 'doesn't work'?
If they can't access their TPB they'll see the need.

Something about them "inviting me to take a drink from the firehose" makes me uneasy.

Because there is a lot more at risk when you're committing straight up theft, vs soliciting them to buy your shoddy merchandise.
Remind us again why you went with gentoo?
Depends if the judge takes mercy on him, ironically in this case.
