You apparently didn't read the post you're replying to correctly. What he points is out is that chikushou doesn't litrerally mean 'fucking christ'. It's just an expression used when something doesn't work out the way you wanted... never even nearly as strong as 'fucking christ'.
Kuso, could men shit... but used as a cursing word is doesn't get much stronger dan 'damn'.
A lot of japanese words regarding emotions have no literal translations (they have to many of those to begin with..:P )
When translating expressions of emotions from one language to another, you have to adjust, naturally. But changing the habits of the characters is something completely different ! It changes the whole essence of the show. Same goes for when americans remove nudity from dragon ball z episodes for example. All you have left are senseless fighting episodes, since most jokes are sexually tainted...
God... I'm also getting very very old -_-;... I was thinking the exact same thing; heck I didn't even think it was in production yet...
till I saw the Edge lying on my desk with Q4 on the cover... I HAVE to cut back on the coffee...
Now, freedom of speech in America is non-existant... as for the EU, I'm convinced it's a whole let better than in the US.
However, I do believe that the main reason that the EU wishes to take the control over the internet away from ICANN is from a) fear for misuse by the states in future and b) a bit of jealousy.
How much I may agree with that vision of the EU towards the US I really think it would be a bad idea for them to take over. This for one simply reason :
when it comes to organisational skills, the EU and UN are a bunch of fuckups.
"Um...Newton was a devout Christian. While he may have dabbled in mildly occult investigations, his beliefs were pretty thoroughly steeped in the standard Christian fare. He writes in Principia..."
He had to sell the idea... Shape it in such a form it would be 'acceptable'.
"And finally, why would anyone want to rely on a net connection to be able to write a letter, or trust a remote company to hold their data,... "
Because it's so easy and oh so handy... anyone with half a brain wouldn't trust a remote company to hold their data...too bad most people have less.
Actually , slowing down software development might be considered a good thing...
It would be nice to see people put more thought in their software design. Heck, might even mean less bugs in Windows... but then again seeing how microsoft develops, it might mean there won't be another version of Windows then... and that might not be a bad thing either...
And even so, not all development has to slow down, new ideas can still be developed and deployed fairly quickly but they should indicate that they aren't 'safe' .
Ah, I'm bullshitting.... to hell with this is interviewer
as I said , I wasn't too sure about snooker. And my count of the amount of snooker and pool balls, was with the white ball excluded. sry. Somehow didn't think about counting that one too...
one... some things should just be left alone. Is hollywood running out of ideas ? There hasn't been a good movie for quite some time now , except for those that were translated from books to film and weren't f'd up ( and those are few ). There's nothing worse (when movies are concerned) than seeing a good old childhood memory being raped by a hollywood director.
...parents who use an Internet discussion board to air grievances...
Isn't there this little thing called.. huh.. "FREE SPEECH" ?
Since when is it illegal to complain anonymous on a discussion board ?
If you complain, we'll sue.

If you don't want the show, then don't air it. Don't cut out the essence of the piece so you can have a 'pretence' of that show.

What is VOD ? It isn't very common in Europe, I know that much .

and still not shutting up :D
Just like a duracell bunny :P
wow.... and you keep on going. Amazing !
Poor little guy ... I'm not trying to win anything. It's slashdot, you really give a rat's ass about this discussion ? How cute :P
You know how a dictionary works ? Good for you !
The problem is, a while ago I've actually met someone who thought this 'joke' to be a truth ...
as I said , I wasn't too sure about snooker. And my count of the amount of snooker and pool balls, was with the white ball excluded. sry. Somehow didn't think about counting that one too ...
So this is Microsoft's view on security. And they wonder why people don't take them seriously when saying they wish to dominate the security sector...
A country lacking sarcasm ... that would be Japan. Definitly.
