They have a time and a place where they are useful, but there's a time and a place where they're NOT. I could maybe see them being useful along the border
if you kill to eat, any animal is the same as chicken or pig. It's called culture difference, and don't tell me yours is right and ours is wrong
Yeah, that was this guy's argument too, but his mouth was full which is bad table manners, so instead of being convinced of cultural relativism, the police just shot him repeatedly.
match? eharmony? jdate? Either man-up and be a house husband or man-up and tell your wife that moving to China is going to put a huge strain on your marriage.
American bacon is bad enough even before they slice it to molecular thickness and fry it in cheap crappy oil until it's quite thoroughly burnt.
I agree regarding the thickness (bacon tastes better with at least double the "normal" US thickness), but no one in America fries bacon in oil, crappy or otherwise. That's the fat from the bacon itself, and its spattering browning goodness is what creates the deliciousness.
Making money is priority 1, and making money requires the specialty legal/financial/scientific/medical/foo software that is only made for windows (NT 4.0) and which requires the user to be logged in with administrator privileges. And don't even think of setting up a remote desktop scenario, because the specialty legal/financial/scientific/medical/foo software needs to interact with the version of IE (6) and MS Office (97) they have installed to print to their local printer in their office which is parallel only; if they print to a copy-room printer they violate some federal regulation. Plus they don't want to walk down the hall and type in their passcode on the printer to release the document then wait while it prints.
He added that young men have been so zombiefied by games and porn that they are unable to function in basic human interactions. "It's a social awkwardness like a stranger in a foreign land", he said. "They don't know what to say. They don't know what to do."
Okay then. Subtract the porn and video games from the equation. Does that magically make guys suddenly less awkward around women? If what he's suggesting is happening, then it's not the porn and video games, it's the lack of contact with women; it's just delayed adolescence.
Even MORE annoying is the music stations have some voiceovers in the songs naming the song and artist (thus ruining it). The voiceovers are whispered in a pleasant tone, like you're not supposed to hear them, but they stand out like a sore thumb.
Yeah, and the government murders people too, to say that murder is wrong.
Actually, no. The government MURDERS someone who has murdered to show that murder is wrong. It's not just some random victim on the street or killing someone over the 3.45 USD in their pocket. Big difference.
If you can't understand this difference than you need to start looking for sanity in yourself before you point the finger at someone else.
Fixed that for you.
Nope, he had it right. "Murder" requires "evil intent". The proper term for an execution is "kill".
Doesn't mean "make it 200x300". Make it a normal website, just take out the mouseover crap (this means you slashdot). I can't select text on/. To quote someone when using my iPhone because there's some stupid detection JS when you click regular text.
By switching to this model, Internet usage for frivolous communication would plummet. Facebook would wither and die. I see this move by the FCC as anti-civilization since it deincentivizes communication use.
Large-scale blackmail, extortion, fraud, vilification, incitement, etc., are all possibilities if the Goog were so inclined.
And a whistleblower would eventually notify a federal agency and they'd be busted. Google might do a lot of illegal things? Yes, scary. Scarier still: The government could use the information to identify the locations of the "undesirables" of a given decade, and efficiently do away with them. Depending on common traffic patterns, it could help identify "undesirables" themselves ("sir, 300 license plates have been identified as being in the five cities where recent 'Anonymous' protests occurred"). And because it's the government, they have the threat of force to back such use. Who are the whistleblowers going to tell? Who's going to bust the government when it grows too much? The media? Assange? Google?
Hell yes, government:bad. The worst google could do with the information is have a rogue employee use it to stalk people. The worst the government could do? Use your imagination. Government is supposed to be restricted for good reasons.
In 2012 we will probably vote for the same people to stay in Congress, who created the silly statutory penalties. America is approximately 100% in favor of the judgement amount, and we will prove it in November when we re-elect those people.
Yes, because every campaign commercial and talking point will be about the $600,000 for 30 songs. Obama will talk about how Tenenbaum needs to pay his fair share. Romney will talk about fair compensation from a business perspective, and whoever the Lib candidate is will say something that no media will cover. And no other topic will come up the entire time.

...which is should be a military patrol anyway.
That's what I read.
Yea.... emphasis on the word "animal".......
Are you implying the homeless man was a vegetable?

How do they hear a gunshot if they're not already on? Maybe he was talking about the recording part of the sensor?
...nothing is more important than Mentzer D&D (BECMI/RC) or AD&D. Only the ones who kind-of care buddied up with WotC.

"no use"
This particular feature has no non-infringing use.
"No non-infringing use" isn't the same as "an infringing use."

Why would you copy through the OS? You don't have to mount the drive. You can (should) just dd it. No filesystem interaction at all.
Yeah, and the government murders people too, to say that murder is wrong.

But can you have one in your transistor radio?

Expectation of disinterest? I see lawsuits against whistling construction workers.
All of those are supposedly triggered by detected infractions. This type is running in a while(true) loop. You don't see a difference?
Maybe it's a bit of a slippery slope fallacy.
The best way to stop future abuses is to imagine slippery slopes.
