  5. Re:What's the problem there?? on Pennsylvania Court Forces ISPs to Block Porn Sites · · Score: 1

    Not true. Having pictures of murder victims is not a crime, but having pictures of child porn victims is.

  6. What's the problem there?? on Pennsylvania Court Forces ISPs to Block Porn Sites · · Score: 1

    We have to note that Child Porn is different from all other sorts of crimes - for example, viewing info about how to murder or how to make your homebred dirty bomb is not a crime, although actually doing it would be.

    However, with Child Porn, the crime is having or viewing the information *PER SE*. So blocking Child Porn sites are actually preventing the crime ITSELF - it is similar to libelous comments - the information IS the crime, so I don't see a problem censoring them.

    So, while censoring ordinary porn sites, sites that teaches you how to make bombs and terrorist sites are bad, censoring child porn sites is actually GOOD.

    Make it skip those advertising links and go back to the first non-ad location.

    Those back-button-disabled sites annoy me. It is MY back button, not doubleclick's.

    Running mingw32 under Wine to compile Win32 executables. I suppose it still works. Ran perfect for me.

  21. Re:Duke Nukem! on Athlon 64 Pushed Back to September · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Price of an average game: $60
    Price of an expensive system: $4000

    Total: $4060

    That is, 406000 pennies. Assume every year is leap, 406000 / 366 = 1112.

    i.e. 1112 years from now you have saved enough money.

    However, price deflates. By that time these stuffs probably go for free.

    My best bet is, spend all your pennies now and wait for 20 years. Then get them both for free.
