This brings up new forms of rick-rolling, never before thought to be possible! You thought you were safe from it by not getting on the computer? HAHA, that's rich!
....That we teach religion not as fact, theory, or even hypothesis. Teach it as what it is, make-believe for grown-ups!
I mean, since there is absolutely zero evidence or logic behind said stories, why give them credit that they most certainly do not deserve? It's only fair, right?
I'm not being sarcastic, either (for a change!). I'm dead serious. I think people should be taught at a young age that they should question, back-up, and study everything before "believing" in something. I am astounded by how we're touting our ability to use logic when so many of us still call blind faith "Truth". Maybe that would help alleviate some of the "crazy nut-job" issues we're having these days... Our education system is fudged, right now. Being the so called "leader of the free world", we should be #1 or a close second/third. Everything from funding of the teachers, to what the teachers teach, even HOW they teach what they teach.
No level of anonymity or virtual reality "breeds terrorism". First of all, you cannot have terrorism on a video game. Secondly, terrorism is bred through REAL LIFE poverty or hopelessness, not spoiled little shits on a virtual cesspool of fake pretentiousness and faux personalities. Lastly, if anything, Second Life itself ATTRACTS people who want to bug the crap out of everyone.
An example; My friends and I installed Second Life to harass and offend the many groups of people who take that game way too seriously. It's fun! Plus, flying penises are hilarious. Oh, and the furries, don't get me started on the furries. Would I kill someone IRL? Not unless it was self defence or to protect a loved one.
Yeah yeah, real cute. Get your head out of your ass, this was no accident.
Whenever you don't have an actual argument or any proof to provide as to why so-in-so's theory is bad, just throw phrases like "tin-foil hat" and "Occam's Razor" around.
What caused this massive "coincidental", "accidental" Internet cut off? Swamp gas? Jet Fuel? Smoke and mirrors?... Was it god? Seriously, what kind of "easy and logical" explanation do you have for this one that once again doesn't involve our infallible world governments?
Does that imperialist dick taste good, or bitter, like blood and oil? Get it through your head, governments don't generally give two shits about their people, much less the people from OTHER countries. This was an act of war, in some way shape or form. 5 steel plated undersea cables in 4-5 quite different places don't accidentally sever themselves within a weeks time.
You've been arrested overnight for "political dissent"! You get a free RFID chip implant/rape of your intrinsic human rights! Have fun with that. I bet you'll think twice about... Thinking, next time.
I love it here. I love (some of) the people in my community, I love my family and friends, and I love the climate/outdoors. (I live in the Twin Cities, MN area.) If I lived anywhere else, I may be singing a different story, but I love this place. Even despite the winters! I cannot leave this place behind because I'm scared of some jack-boot fascist fucks. I'd rather suit up, and take them head on. Whether that be figuratively or literally, I don't care. This is my home, my castle, and I'll defend it and the rights I believe we all deserve as such.
Yeah, I'm passing up my chance to get out before we get raped, but it's worth the chance. And I know many others who feel the same way.
You hear that, pigs? We're ready for you. [/heartfelt "FREEEEDOM!!!!111" speech haha]
I guess if they want to play the bad-guy, they can play the bad-guy. Congratulations, DoD, you've just made enemies out of some very able and skilled people. Well, relative to the average joe, they're more skilled and able.
No, but giving it a simple moment of your thought to see if it's worth it to go further into investigating this "new idea" is indeed a good thing.
Hard-line conservatives just shut anything different out completely. There's a reason why people call them narrow-minded. I'm not talking about conservatives, I'm talking about hard-line conservatives. You know the ones.
That's a cute reply and all, but it proves nothing... Not because you're wrong (you are), I'm simply pointing out the fact that his speech here on the Internet holds no bearing on what the general population thinks, nor does it change whatever the administration is doing.
It's disappointing, but he's not actually getting in the way of anything by practicing his "free" speech on slashdot comments.
This is a politically charged time we live in, this type of news and discussion gets EVERYWHERE.

Hell, I was watching some porn the other night, and the actor and actress started going at it. And by going at it, I mean arguing about whether or not the USA is a democratic republic or despotism. (I agree with the chick, because she said it was despotism. Also, she was friggin hot)
You see? You cannot get away from it, everyone wants to talk about it. I don't consider that a bad thing, either.
You're not getting it. This is quantum mechanics/physics, not conventional.
They're using quantum tunneling to change the photons position rather than making it "travel" faster than light moves on its own. The photons in this experiment are not "traveling" in our definition of the word, they're leaving regular space and instantly appearing somewhere else. If the particles/matter we wish to transport can leave conventional space, they no longer need to follow the rules that state "matter with mass cannot move faster than light". Also, photons actually do have mass... Look it up.:)
Our entire understanding of why objects behave the way they do in regular space has been limited to our own percievable surroundings up until the last century. We're finally starting to see that our visible universe is only the cover sheet to a much more vast and complicated system. There are levels of existence that have different rules and structures that we cannot see yet, but we're just starting to poke them with our scientific stick, so to speak.
Personally, I'm hoping to see quantum tunneled (or something similar) matter within the next two decades, and I don't believe I'm giving my hopes up when I say that... So long as we don't fuck everything up by killing each other and/or dropping into another religiously provoked dark age, I think we're in for some absolutely rediculous scientific advancements in the next 20 years.
I don't believe in censoring anything, really. But I don't watch cable, either. It's full of crap television for stupid americans, and it's censored like crazy, anyway.
You can take your religiously vigorous monopoly on "morals" and shove it, because I don't care. If you're so worried about your kids getting screwed up, maybe they shouldn't watch television at all. It's a disgusting way to raise kids, anyway. Buy them some video games, books, and legos instead. They'll learn a hell of a lot more.
Have you noticed that playing shows like Cops is acceptable on public television, but saying "god dammit" isn't? Fucking bullshit.
Your precious fox news is a great example of this, too. They post story after story about THE NEXT BIG THING THAT COULD KILL YOU TONIGHT, but then talking about sex in an educational and informative manner is somehow dirty.
By the way, your signature made me roll my eyes so hard that they fell out.
That has very little to do with television, as shitty and monotonous as it is. The fault is squarely on the parents for not realizing their kid is acting like a douche-bag, and punishing him/her accordingly. Hell, it's probably something you enabled!
Oh but I forgot, in this day and age, we blame everyone but ourselves, right? DISCIPLINE YOUR KID AND STOP CENSORING MY ENTERTAINMENT.
Stupid parents, I swear, 75% - 85% of them are complete failures as role models.
We should think about just blanketing the planet with nukes to cause a massive climate change. Kind of like a jump-start for the planets weak weather systems.
Also, this could release gases into the atmosphere from the planets crust or something. There has to be some kind of brute force way of making the planet a bit more easily accessible.
You know... Do something useful with those nukes we have, rather than pointing them at our own people....?
Whatever man, if you're knowledgeable enough to rip DRM protected streams of any sort, you're smart enough to use a program like CoolEditPro to chop it up into individual tracks. It's easy, and even fun to mess around with audio!

You're now the enemy, too.
So would this be something that could be bypassed by adding a small system to the already coming RFID chips? :P
No, but giving it a simple moment of your thought to see if it's worth it to go further into investigating this "new idea" is indeed a good thing.
Hard-line conservatives just shut anything different out completely. There's a reason why people call them narrow-minded. I'm not talking about conservatives, I'm talking about hard-line conservatives. You know the ones.
You have to actually arm, with codes, the nukes before they'll do anything more than crash into the ground really fast.
There would be no reason for the nukes to actually go off should they be accidentally fired.
That's a cute reply and all, but it proves nothing... Not because you're wrong (you are), I'm simply pointing out the fact that his speech here on the Internet holds no bearing on what the general population thinks, nor does it change whatever the administration is doing.

If this dude lived close to me I'd swing by and drop off my collection of LiveCDs, so he doesn't have to DL them and risk getting caught.
Fucking anti-piracy laws, they treat these people like murderers.

Am I surprised that they have a manual detailing how to put a muzzle on free speech? Yes, yes I am.
LOL JUST KIDDING

It's like a game, see how many times I can give them a metaphorical slap in the face in any given week.

Some are just more equal than others.
Well.. Of course!
Remember, if we disagree, we're terrorists and criminals.

Try it out.
That's funny, I'm running vista ultimate, and I'm stream-rippin right NOW! ;P
I wonder if something like this is used by the recording industry to pump out all those "wonderful" songs we hear every day?
