  • On the post: Arizona Internet Censorship Bill So Ridiculous, Even The MPAA And RIAA Are Against It

    fb39ca4 ( profile ), 03 Apr, 2012 @ 09:45am

    As Media Coalition points out, the bill:

    ... takes a fucking law meant to fucking address fucking irritating phone calls and applies it to communication on fucking web sites, fucking blogs, fucking listserves and other fucking Internet communication. H.B. 25-fucking-49 is not fucking limited to a fucking one to one conversation between two fucking specific people. The fucking communication fucking does not need to fucking be repetitive or even fucking unwanted. There is no fucking requirement that the fucking recipient or fucking subject of the fucking speech fucking actually feel fucking offended, annoyed or fucking scared. Nor does the fucking legislation make fucking clear that the fucking communication fucking must be fucking intended to fucking offend or fucking annoy the reader, the fucking subject or even any fucking specific fucking person.

    its called cracks and backups

    When Microsoft starts removing apps like Apple has done with apps such as Phone Story, people will simply crack them and the app will gain even more attention due to the Streisand Effect. And if you are worried about your data, just back it up. End of story.

    fb39ca4 ( profile ), 07 Oct, 2011 @ 05:54pm

    This isn't a donation.

    Software is not a scarce good, it doesn't cost Microsoft anything to manufacture it if it is distributed digitally, so in effect they are giving up nothing in exchange for free marketing and tax breaks. So I don't see why Microsoft should get those tax breaks.

    They should sue the courthouses

    I'm pretty sure all courthouses have wireless networks nowadays. It would be interesting if they sued them as well.

  • On the post: Is The Gates Foundation Really Looking At New Ways To Tackle Big Health Problems When It's Hiring Pharma Execs?

    fb39ca4 ( profile ), 23 Sep, 2011 @ 05:41pm

    Actually, they are not

    Drugs are not part of a comprehensive health care plan. Real medicine is found within nature, not an artificial molecule brewed up in a lab and sold at thousands of times the cost of manufacturing it.
