I would like the UN to take over is because I think the Internet should be regulated by an entity that really could be disbanded at anytime. Can we say League of Nations?
I mean it's not like two nations make up 40% of the UN's funding (*ahem I'm looking at you US and Japan*)
"Then again I'm on my Linux laptop running no AV software."
The last days a few people have asked if I've been sick. I don't think so, but then again I never went to the doctor either.
Ignorance is bliss.
Come on now.
Is it really that hard to get a printed card (read: scantron) that I can look over and say: Yep, that's what I voted! Have that card read into a repository (which keeps the card) and at the end of the day have the booths match up with the repository. If the numbers don't match it raises a red flag and they then do some digging?
Or better yet just use the repository to send the votes?
I used it to take photos of houses I was looking at buying. I didn't need to bring a 'real camara' because I just needed quick photos to remind myself what was pos/neg about the houses.
I watch a lot of TV however I use a DVR. Without the DVR I'd watch about 12 and 1/2 hours of TV a week (not including movies or sports). Now I'm never just watching TV, I'm usually on my laptop doing web development or other work.
I've been clipped, so it's your turn. (Note: this author understood that you asked him to ban himself, but this author figured what the hell. He's clipped and believes that close enough to the author banning children.)
I've been two a protest or two, and I've never had an FBI guy knocking on my door. I've been vocal about different issues. I have a website that will poke fun at elected officials during the election cycles. Yet, I still haven't even had a hit from the FBI's office on my website.
I must be doing something wrong.
Oh yeah... I'd like everyone to know that "garcia" is now on the FBI watch list after his comments.
Look Side A uses fear so that they can gain more control then we might normally feel comfortable with. But we seem to forget that Side B uses unrealistic fear about the erosion of personal freedoms. I feel that Bush falls in Side A and people like "garcia" fall into Side B.
I'm really not trying to start anything. But...
who wants to use a product that is limited to usage with 1 or 2 brands when you can use a format that is supported by nearly all companies?
Uh... Mac users?
I've been with my company now for just over 4 years. I have a 176 of benefit time I can use. For those of you counting that's 22 days or almost 4 1/2 weeks.
And I am an American.
At 28 y/o (and still trying to pay off college debt) I would rather get those 152 of hours in pay rather then time off. Not still paying for college when I'm 50 sounds like a lot more fun then a vacation.
Btw: I'm trying to finally take all my time off. I hope I get to this year.
I can only speak for myself about that. My girl happens to be quite the historian, but I'm still not so sure why she mentions our revolutionary fathers after sex.
I know right, like, when I go to my corner store it is likeso unfair that I have to use green-backs. Uh, stupid store like why can't I just use colorful money, you know right? I can use it in uh Canada. Like why can't they just they do what I want! Like, what-ev!

What's my point with all of this? Simple even if (and it's not) PayPal was the only way you could make a purchase at eBay, they have the right to make it so, it's their company, you could always get what you are looking for elsewhere.
That's always been what I've found to be the most entertaining. By dismissing that a deity exists he actually limits his free thought; not the other way around.
Absolutely !
There is no connection. The data the NSA is collecting is accurate. And not so much for the CRB's
In my first two years in college I lived in one dorm room and my perm address was the 'rents address. Of course my credit report has me listed that I had lived in 6 locations those first two years.
Eh?! Oppressed people _anywhere_ have a "right" to fight for a better life, regardless of their citizenship status
What are you talking about we oppress law breakers all the time. We toss them in jail to get raped, fry them, boot them from the country, make lists of them and keep said list on the web, force them to tell their neighbors that 30 years ago they were 18 and had sex with a 16 y/o girl so they are now a sex offender, and/or we tell people regualry that if we don't like what they have to say they need to shut the fuck up.
Opression is what we do to law-breakers... unless you are in power, then ofcourse you are somehow above the law (red or blue)...

I think it would be awesome if the UN took over.
Why you ask? Well I'll tell you

Wait... maybe that's not a good idea.

I like when stupid people talk (read: write). I can find them and avoid them easier. Also if I'm having a bad day, I know who to take it out on.

Wait, are you saying it's not indeed in his ass? Shoot wish I hadn't waisted my mod points now :-(

How would you know?
Um... I'll take "What are log files for $200?"
Oh yeah? Well I've been THREE a protest or two!
Stupid spell check. Nice catch. Wish I had a mod point for that.

I am happy to hear that you have nothing to hide. I think that people worry to much about privacy.
I for one understand very well why we need to give up a little privacy for the greater good.
Again I'd just like to say that privacy is not as important as saftey and security.
I'm really not trying to start anything. But... who wants to use a product that is limited to usage with 1 or 2 brands when you can use a format that is supported by nearly all companies? Uh... Mac users?
Comedy show?? Shug ! I thought that was news ! :P
No no.. that's not right, our stereotype is Arrogant.
Oblivious would be the European stereotype... http://www.historyplace.com/worldwar2/timeline/ww2 time.htm (as one example.)
But then again... I guess you are doing your best impression of the Arrogant American right now.

Don't forget "and it's more fun."
