Dumb is the new black
Topic: Miscellaneous 11:29 am EST, Feb 15, 2008

Here's an NYT article in case you're like me and starting to really get annoyed at stupid people arguing for stupidity instead of against it like any race that is expected to continue breeding should.

Just in case any of the words are just too big for you, double-click on them.

I know this is old, but isn't this illegal?
Topic: Miscellaneous 5:48 am EST, Nov 20, 2007

This is old news I know, but my question is, as a service provider are they allowed MIM attacks like this (am I misreading this, isn't that what masquerading as the other computer your talking to and sending false data is?).

I know this is old, but isn't this illegal?


Did I tell you today that we have soldiers dying overseas?

The Personal Transport of Awesomeness

Before you sneer, here's some facts...

New, it cost about 200 British Pounds.
It gets almost 100 MPG.

I want the sport version shown at the end.

Frankly, I think someone should try making these again. Something like this that maybe got as fast as 45mph (definitely not safe for this on the interstate) and you could sell for say, $400-$500... You could not keep people out of your showroom without dogs and minefields.

The _proper_ way cats should react to water, if they are against taking your life.

MIT student arrested for entering Boston airport with art project
Topic: Miscellaneous 7:25 pm EDT, Sep 22, 2007

She's extremely lucky she followed the instructions or deadly force would have been used," Pare told The Associated Press. "And she's lucky to be in a cell as opposed to the morgue."

The quote above is a Massachusetts State Police Officer publicly threatening to murder an MIT student who accidentally showed up at the airport wearing an electronic art project. She has, yet again, been charged with carrying out a hoax. Remember kids, anytime a Massachusetts police officer is confused, its your fault for confusing them, and not theirs for being fucking stupid and paranoid, and you are likely to go to prison or worse if it happens.

John Kerry: FUCK YOU.
Topic: Miscellaneous 12:17 pm EDT, Sep 18, 2007

For standing on stage like a cowardly sack of crap, because in theory you more than anyone else there should have known what was going on in that room was illegal and would have had the power to stop it with a word but didn't.

FUCK YOU.

You're done. As far as a lot of Americans and myself are concerned, you will never be worthy of a vote again. You very obviously don't have our best interests in heart, and even more clearly don't give a crap what happens to your fellow man even when it's right in front of you.

John Kerry: FUCK YOU.

Joy Robinson-Van Gilder is a small-town mom from Earlville, Illinois (population 1,778) who began a one-woman campaign to fight the use of biometrics in the schools — and won.

In August of 2005, the public school in Earlville installed biometric equipment, allowing the school to track students by scanning their fingerprints. Use of the scans for school lunch was apparently mandatory. When Robinson-Van Gilder objected, she was told: “If they don’t scan, they don’t eat.”

We need this to be a Federal Law... to protect our youth.

McCain on Iraq.
Topic: Miscellaneous 9:25 pm EDT, Sep 13, 2007

Sums up my concerns rather well.

"No, no, really, we've almost got it! Just another 6 months and we'll be in good shape..."
