One person cannot truly know what the other wants, he just knows what he thinks the other wants by interpretation of the signals given to him. Your confusion itself is an example of this. In fact the second case is impossible, unless they are linked telepathically or something. He can, however, know exactly what an object does, through observation. I guess by extension one could observe the another person so completely that he could perfectly predict everything they want, but that's impractical today. </wannabe_philosopher>
The problem is you'd need a powerful stereo and big-ass speakers to simulate the sound of a gunshot.
He could use a real gun.
Just kidding. Firecrackers would be a better choice, but those are illegal. A cheap amp/speaker combo for guitars should have no trouble reproducing the sound of a "distant" gunshot, but if they have a system to measure from more than one mic that method will be defeated.
However, stepping back from the cynicism, I would note that this was always my experience with the punk scene. Specifically, most people I knew in the scene were incredibly talented, highly intelligent and for the most part more articulate than average. I always wondered how it was that we seemed to find one another, self assemble and take part in a scene that was a retreat of sorts from lives and upbringings that were in most cases not "Leave it to Beaver" or "The Cosby Show" type lives.
Unfortunately today the punk scene has, at least in my area, been totally shunned by the so-called geeks and nerds. Mostly because of the prevalence of what ClearChannel, MTV, and the RIAA call "emo". It's kind of frustrating that some of my friends refuse to even try listening to genres as unrelated as ska because they judge all punk by the bastardized corporate version played on the radio.
It's not the fact that the decryption key is known and distributed. It's the fact that muslix64's program is capable of decrypting a copyrighted work without permission. That's a violation of the DMCA.
Why is there any doubt as to the legality of this? The wording of the DMCA makes it very clear that open programs doing this kind of thing are illegal.
They have a shadow government set up in parallel to the official government because people thought it was fraudulently elected, and some areas feel so neglected they put up armed resistance to the feds. I think they're more fucked than we are.
Humor is the ability or quality of people, objects, or situations to evoke feelings of amusement in other people. The term encompasses a form of entertainment or human communication which evokes such feelings, or which makes people laugh or feel happy.
Reading books on a screen sucks. When I'm reading a book, I like to sit sideways in the armchair, hang over the edge of my bed, or sprawl out on the floor. You can't read a screen like that. Books are also convenient for actually taking places where it would be impractical, expensive, impossible, or maybe just socially unacceptable to take a computer. Usually outside. You know, that big room with the blue ceiling.
The stuff on the right is probably a Karamba or SuperKaramba applet. Install it via your package manager of choice and check out all the stuff for it at kde-look.

Realistically, always assume the first case.

If you want anybody to pay attention, you have to blow something up.

Got any sources for that? It's completely ridiculous, but after some of the stuff they've pulled, I wouldn't put it past them.

It would have been nice to get an update on that though.
But the police won't.
A man has to run from the law because he wrote a program that lets people watch videos, and you can't find anything wrong with that?

Obviously you've never worked with people that write software.

I completely don't understand why this is modded Funny.
So use "Interesting", then. It's closer to the truth.

You should also read Irony, Sarcasm and maybe Droll Humor.
