If you live in the US like I do, the only time I don't have rights is when it is explicitly stated so by the Constitution. Does the US Constitution say that I don't have a right to privacy? The answer is no.
On the converse, if the Constitution doesn't explicitly state I have said right, I STILL HAVE it. The Constitution does say that any right not listed is in the domain of the people, not the government. Therefore, I have the right, and just because you decide to give up yours doesn't mean I have to.
That doesn't mean the government can't change their mind and write it in... but it hasn't happened yet.
Yea, that was a worthless tag reminiscent of sensational news reporting... someone drank the fox news koolaid. Guberment!! Save me from the evil magnetic fields!! They cause CANCER!!!
Here's a tip... want to prevent cancer? Stop breathing.
When it was originally announced, the Registered Traveler program was going to allow those in the program to bypass security altogether, and it was sanctioned by the TSA. Since the idea never really took off, and only a handful of airports actually have the kiosks, the TSA is rumored to be dropping support... so yes, it really comes down to paying over $100 to not stand in line.
It is just horrible that at a time when the national debt is so high we still throw money around like its nothing.
Except that it IS nothing to them. They'll just make more money and/or sell us out to countries who hate us! What do they care? The American taxpayer is footing the bill for their well-being. And pensions. I say, put them on Social Security like the rest of us, and allow their salaries to be commensurate to their approval rating. We'll get some useful things happening then.
That's because at 25, the doctor is just starting his/her practice after all the schooling, and is probably massively encumbered by debt. Trust me, I know... my wife is in medical school (26). Things change quite a bit by 35.
give me recommendations I'm planning on going out the same way I came in... bloody and screaming. Hope that fills your mind with lots of precious ideas.
When you are a party to neither case? Except that NYCL IS a party to both cases, he's representing the defendant (or defendants, as the RIAA lawyers are putting it) in question.
There is nothing more sad than an attorney putting their own moralistic crusade over propriety and- yes- ethics. I think that more accurately describes the RIAA's lawyers, not NYCL.
Agreed. I can build a beowolf cluster in my home, big friggin' deal. Find me some developers that can actually do something with said cluster (other than/. bragging rights), then we may have a story.
Call me when they've produced something with their "supercomputer" other than a "hello world" program.
So my car was legally parked in front of my girlfriend's house, on a 30mph street. There is a gradual turn, and if you're not paying attention, you'll miss the turn and hit my car.
Well, that's basically what happened. Some nut not paying attention drove right into my car around 40mph. Needless to say, my car's left side didn't survive. I was in the house when I heard it, looked out the window, and saw this car impaling my own.
So I go out to investigate, and the woman is attempting to drive away... I noticed as she reversed that the right half of her front axle is torn off, wheel still lodged in my car. She didn't get far obviously (lots of horrible scraping), and eventually got out after I knocked on her window. After surveying the damage together, she informs me (completely straight-faced) "I'm late for work, really sorry... can you help me put my wheel back on?"
The rage I felt was unimaginable. But I calmly said, "Sure, how about I go into the house and get some super glue and we'll fix that right up for you."
It was either the shock of the accident or she was just that stupid... but she said "OH MY GOD, THANK YOU!"
But I'm a cruel heartless bastard, even more so when someone doesn't get the sarcasm. "On second thought, we're waiting for a tow truck, and the cops."
And no, she wasn't drunk (the cop was honestly surprised).

Isn't that really the "left" candidate? *ducks*
Actually, I do have a right to privacy.

It will be years and years before flash storage drives will be cheaper than an optical disc.
So is that less than, equal to, or greater than Samsung's claim of five years?
It's called a "business write-off" ... what better way to afford expensive things AND avoid paying taxes on the income used to buy them?

Clear members still undergo the same scrutiny as any other passenger ... they just have a special line.

Nah, it's just a giant boxing glove ... moving verrry slooowly.
or tequila ... an ocean margarita ... no need to salt the brim, it's all there!
See the first post of this thread for your answer.

Howlin' Mad, in fact. He likes to fly Mr.T around, much to the latter's dismay.
Not going to comment on the quality ... but it is "working" for me in FF 2.0.0.12
It's certainly magical ... like LSD-induced magical. What is this administration smoking? Can I have some?
Exactly ... but according to our buddy Jack T, if you spend $1200 on a gaming rig you're liable to go outside and shoot/rape someone!
Ape 1: SPACEBALLS?!
... there goes the planet ...
Ape 2: Oh shit
According to Hawking anyway ... that's what they're trying to prove with this experiment.
12,000 pounds sounds pretty cheap to me ... but I guess with the dollar falling it's expensive?
Nice ... actually her story to the cop was "I was looking in the passenger seat for something".
She was ticketed for inattentive driving.

Just when I thought I had forgotten all about DX2 ... you all had to remind me!
