It's people like you who allow governments to get away with this crap.]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130517/22104223137/sophisticatedjanedoe-fightcopyrighttrolls-favorite-techdirt-posts-week.shtml#c1088 Mon, 20 May 2013 05:14:28 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130517/22104223137/sophisticatedjanedoe-fightcopyrighttrolls-favorite-techdirt-posts-week.shtml#c1088
Or rather you wished no one would notice.

Your point of naming ones self in relationship to the relevance of information they offer, has to do with courage only or "balls" is extremely of the mark. You have made it clear that you are a self important fool and pathetically desperate.

You have yet in your embarrassing display to offer any arguments to offset any viewpoints SJD has ever made. Obviously offended by her accuracy, you have fallen far short of doing any better, only whining she hasn't left herself wide open personally. She has left herself wide open intellectually, and you don't have the ovaries or brains to meet her on her turf.

You have revealed that you are invested in naming her, as you have posted what you have found on her to a public site. It's creepy to do that, especially along side the idea of trying to discredit her as some sort of public service. If you have been on medication and recently stopped, you may want to revisit starting up again. If you haven't, you may want to consider it. Shaming seems to be the only tool you are adept at wielding. Intellect would do you some good here/now. You don't seem to be catching on that your efforts have been, and will continue to be futile here on the basis of anonymity.

Wait... Amy? Is that you?]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130510/13023123037/lots-people-dont-turn-off-their-devices-when-they-fly.shtml#c1373 Mon, 20 May 2013 05:14:16 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130510/13023123037/lots-people-dont-turn-off-their-devices-when-they-fly.shtml#c1373 http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130517/09430123119/eu-commission-sued-refusing-to-reveal-trade-agreement-documents-they-shared-with-lobbyists.shtml#c99 Mon, 20 May 2013 05:03:52 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130517/09430123119/eu-commission-sued-refusing-to-reveal-trade-agreement-documents-they-shared-with-lobbyists.shtml#c99

Most useful invention EVER.

Ahem. Nuplug seems awesome too but I projected my outlets to fit my needs and to be smart at home. So it's not really usefull for me. As for the design... It's an outlet..

And honestly, how much time anybody effectively works without having to take a break? Becomes pretty obvious.

In America, we have this sick Calivinist notion of "earning a living", as if the only acceptable life is a life spent toiling 70% of your waking hours to make someone in the economic elite richer.

It's not America only. And we need to find balance. Instead of profiting several billions large companies could be satisfied with only a few billion or even less. The root of the problem is Capitalism itself. And human greed.]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130517/09430123119/eu-commission-sued-refusing-to-reveal-trade-agreement-documents-they-shared-with-lobbyists.shtml#c95 Mon, 20 May 2013 04:47:15 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130517/09430123119/eu-commission-sued-refusing-to-reveal-trade-agreement-documents-they-shared-with-lobbyists.shtml#c95

Except have kids, feel empathy, write books, imagine, admire art, feel regret or any other human emotion.

Nor can they really think laterally, or think at all.

Nor will machines EVER be a commercially viable alternative to many, if not most functions that humans perform.]]> http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130517/22104223137/sophisticatedjanedoe-fightcopyrighttrolls-favorite-techdirt-posts-week.shtml#c1084 Mon, 20 May 2013 04:39:09 PDT http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130517/22104223137/sophisticatedjanedoe-fightcopyrighttrolls-favorite-techdirt-posts-week.shtml#c1084

Here's hoping the company translates this success into a wider philosophy.

I'll tell what's a popular artist for me. My Industrial Projects teacher had a band and he had recorded a few CDs by the time I attended College. He used to give CDs for free at the Campus and many students liked his artistic works. Many of us went to his shows and yet what he made from his musical career wasn't even close to his wages as a teacher. For me this is being popular. Sure he has just a few thousand fans and doesn't make a lot of money. But he is popular.

And really, who are you to judge if she's smart? Are you capable of living from your artistic work? No? You may be good in your field but again... Who are you to judge?]]>
