Fuck that shit, gimme a web interface for a robot in iraq so I can kill insurgents.. just make sure they're clearly identified with bright clothing or something, otherwise I'll be forced to enlist to satisfy my neanderthalic desires!
"They scream about the right to free speech, but as soon as someone says something they don't like, they rush to censor them. "
I never suggested censoring them, my opinion of this is quite the opposite. Please keep Fox News on the air, please. Fox News serves as the perfect case study for young students in 'What a self-respecting journalist with intregrity should NOT DO - 101'
I feel the same way about about nazi/skinheads/the kkk/etc. They only bury themselves everytime they open their mouths. And the public is smart enough to make up their own mind about these insane groups, just as they will do for Fox News.
is there such thing as libel and slander anymore ? Seriously, fox news has perfected this type of character assassination by qualifying all their statements with "Rumour has it John Doe has been killing fetuses".. or "It's been said that jack frost hates the military and is a liberal!" or "Word around Capital Hill indicates democrats want to kill god"... Easy as pie..
Nothing is slander anymore, it's just "Your opinion" Watch fox news sometime, they get away with saying crazy stuff all the time by using that legal technique.
The holographic doctor (whatever his name is, EMH?) is faced with a tricky surgical procedure that involves removing face-sucking-alien from one of the klingon chick. His technical prowess is not up to the task so he creates another holographic doctor based on the research database of a infamous alien doctor that employed nazi'ish and genocidal techniques in his bio/health research.. Of course the episode revolves around this ethical dilemma for the most part and explores the ramifications of using such knowledge... In the end, the captain/doctor toss aside the ethics to save one of their crew.
I don't believe, at least as far as I know, there was much debate about using the research the nazi's compiled with their experiments on unwilling test subjects. At least not public debate, I'm sure in some medical circles there was some dialogue over the subject but in general westerners didnt put up much fuss about it..
So why all of a sudden is there such a mess being made of the research of aborted fetus tissues? If a medical discovery for the treatment of parkinsons or diabetes or whatever that was based on the research of these dead fetuses, then don't get the treatment.. don't empower or support people that do that kind of research, if God wants you to suffer, so be it and accept it... pretend it's one of his tests of faith or whatever.. this is all part of his grand scheme/plan right?
corporate blogs are just another arm of their public relations department, everything needs to be positive, big whoop. Once in a while they might include *insider* information, but thats usually sanctioned..
Really, find a way to blog anonymously and rip your company to shreds. Fucked Company or whatever is probably a good way to go about it.
ahh sounds nice. I don't really have a clue when it comes to these handheld computers.. the whole typing thing kind of scares me, the onscreen keys don't seem very friendly, at least the ones i've seen. My fingers are too big for that stuff
The conservatives are going nowhere, maybe even a few steps backwards. Especially if the election is held within the next few months. It's my opinion that people are waking up to the nightmare that Harper is, the guy is a lunatic foaming at lips. I've talked to a number of people that will be voting NDP in the next election, switching from their conservative last conservative vote (which makes no bloody sense, but they felt there was no choice in the last election, they didn't want to vote liberal, so they voted for Harper and his gang of anti-canadian thugs.) I expect NDP gains of 25-30 seats, gains for the liberals, losses for the conservatives.
I guess that all depends how long this government survives, it's looking like Prime Minister Layton's magic worked, so far.
The u.s. is in the transition to a wholely IP based economy, the DMCA is their lifeblood to a prosperous future. Log onto cspan sometime and watch the Greenspan-meets-congress videos, he keeps telling them "We need stronger IP laws.." Without any doubt his opinion holds more weight than yours ever will. I don't have much to say to young idealists or anybody with a inkling of hope left except, submit to your masters, it'll be easier.
they should build a sheep with human vocal cords, if that's possible.. shorten/lengthen the trachea/throat, whatever is necessary to make it possible for these hybrid monsters the ability to learn speech. Now that would be cool. Hopefully they'll be capable of reproduction as well.
There was a story on slashdot about a month ago, some microsoft shill was dis'ing Linux because of it's lack of support and indemification issues, all the more reason to go with Microsoft (presumably because they have to answer for these fuck ups.)
So microsoft will reimburse Reuters for this IM disaster, someone at microsoft will get fired at least ?
Whatever, microsoft is like the government... when people screw up they get promotions or Medals of Freedom..
enjoy a few years studying philosophy, history and the arts. In the end you'll come out feeling more satisfied with your well-being. Why do I say that, well I was just reading this headline,
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States should remove visa limits to allow more skilled foreign citizens to work at U.S. companies if it wants to remain a leader in technology, Microsoft Corp. Chairman Bill Gates said on Wednesday.
Microsoft is having a hard time finding skilled workers within the United States, and the lack of H-1B visas for skilled workers is only making the situation worse, Gates said in a panel discussion at the Library of Congress.
Debating hardware vs software is just futile at this point..
If it's hosted on sf.net then the terrorists would have open access to our technology & methodology. Sounds too good to be true, thats what I would be thinking if I were Osama Bin Laden. This sort of code and it's related technologies should be kept out of the hands of potentionally hostile regimes to the u.s., IMHO. You may have a different opinion but I'm concerned about the safety and welfare of our nation.
yes, the concorde, but he made reference to the 'Concordia'.. aka, 'concordski' or whatever you want to call the russian supersonic counterpart, which was being developed/built at the same time as the concorde..
Didn't it blow up at it's first showing at an airshow in France ? They were probably rushing the job just so they could one-up the French.. Thought I saw something about this on the history channel some time ago.

Ya, I agree with ya on that one, when I need a laugh I skip the comedy channel and flip to Fox.

After I learn morse code I'll have exactly zero friends to morse with, sort of like my current contact list.
Don't worry yourself too much, special exemptions will be made for companies that employ 'undocumented workers' illegally.
and how many Libraries of Congress ... ahh, I dunno.. What sort of LoC metric can we apply to this machine ?
ahh sounds nice. I don't really have a clue when it comes to these handheld computers.. the whole typing thing kind of scares me, the onscreen keys don't seem very friendly, at least the ones i've seen. My fingers are too big for that stuff
can I run ssh telnet on any of these devices ?
no, they changed their tune, now it's
Netcraft confirms, phishers are dead.
Mod parent up..

Great idea, Even a google group might do the trick if it's properly administered and rules are laid down.
I submit one right now (got this one the other day in a fake ebay email.)

switching from their conservative last conservative vote
switching from their previously held vote/support of the conservative party in the last election.
