  • On the post: Growing Number Of Senators Demand Answers About NSA Surveillance

    Growing numbers

    Growing numbers of senators realize they'd better start making public noises about being concerned, or they risk sharing the same lamposts as the rest of the executive when the public finally gets fed up with all this lying and spying.

    Oh, they sent a letter. That will surely show those NSA scoundrels the error of their ways!

  • On the post: The Result Of Stupid Protectionism: Microsoft Kinect Can't Be Used On Microsoft Windows PCs

    Motives

    Please, have some sympathy for poor Microsoft. It must be very difficult to implement and market a gaming platform with government-mandated 24/7 NSA-online home surveillance, in a way that only a few people will recognize. It's a delicate trade off - MS need to retain enough market share to keep funding Mr Gates' crucial population cull vaccines, not to mention avoid Mr Gates getting kneecapped by his Elite NWO 'friends.' While at the same time minimizing the number of hackers who figure out what the system really does, to a range that can be comfortably and quietly handled by the CIA's assassination branch. After all it only takes a few hundred cases of new cars suddenly accelerating into fiery crashes, young men dying of heart attacks just after eating lunch, guys discovered dead from auto-erotic asphyxiation, and shooting suicides with back-of-head bullet entries, before the public might start to get suspicious.

    The Kinect component is probably the most stressful for Microsoft. How do you build in facial and expression recognition so you can identify people smiling as they think about k-lling the P-resident, so MS gets a nice income stream from CIA rendition kickbacks, while not allowing anyone to plug the thing into their PC and notice all the packets it's trying to send to Langley or where ever?

    If they want to use the legal system this way

    Will someone please patent the business method of legislating a nation into economic oblivion for ideological reasons, then sue bastards like Ralph Oman (and Obama) for patent infringement.

    Licence the legislators

    Can we please implement a license system for people who want to make up rules to restrict what other people can do?

    It would need some kind of basic intelligence and technology awareness test, with a yearly re-test. Also a psych test, to exclude psychopaths, megalomaniacs and other lunatics.

    A person would need to have this license before standing for election, or taking any powerful civil service position.

    Just keep running in circles of denial

    It amazes me. Each year this bs gets worse. Long ago it stopped being even funny, and at least a few years ago it became clearly a matter of survival of civilization.

    Yet still everyone runs around talking, talking, talking.

    Hey! The Criminal Elite Ziombies are breaking down the last barriers. Don't you see it?

    It's shotguns or nothing, now. The only way to defeat zombies is to blow their heads off. Talking DOES NOT WORK.
