r9k >threads< might be fun, but I feel like r9k'ing the entire forum is a difficult/fake idea.

I guess I'm not seeing the purpose since r9k already exists. I'd like to hear thoughts on why people think it would be cool.

Yeah r9k exists, but it is filled with 4channers. Also, I see how the idea would be difficult, but fake? The fuck is that supposed to mean?

Some of those patents do seem really broad... I imagine they're just using every one possible and seeing what sticks.
March 2 2010, 18:35:13 #1552 [2 Agree] [0 Spam] [0 Troll]
Apple is pretty much just being a dick, from what I can tell. I don't think they have serious concerns about people stealing their original work, which is what patents are really for.

@1552 Agree, also since many of these patents are software related there's something fishy about them going after HTC and not Google, who "makes" Android. They probably just don't have the cojones to do it yet.

well it depends on what kind of liberties you want, there are many things that are "illegeal" yet we do them all the time cuz the enforcers of laws (courts, police etc) realize that they suck so they ignore them until they need to use them to nail a guy, when they lack evidence for some thing else they KNOW he did.

Anybody have any ideas for bringing down (in the legal sense, not the boom sense) parts of the government? The BATFE is one that I would like to see destroyed, especially the F part of that (firearms).
A couple of ideas:

what they seem to not understand is there is no consequences for criminals when they can be sure that their target has no weapon.
They did do the studies then the twisted it all around with media, to make it sound like the reverse... piss off, knife laws are an even worse gong show, but at least you can get them unlike the way the brits/aus handle knives.

A quote from my favorite Terry Pratchett book, Night Watch:
"There had been that Weapons Law, for a start. Weapons were involved in so many crimes that, Swing reasoned, reducing the number of weapons /had/ to reduce the crime rate.

exactly how many people make laws, look at one part of the picture, and assume the rest will fall into place in their idealization.

@1447 It'd be extremely surprising if the posts all came from the same address, since it's probably a botnet and possibly even using proxies... and I don't track IP addresses anyway so it'd be hard to do that.
I have a plan for a spam filter that should work wonderfully for this crap because it only posts the same few messages.
February 23 2010, 22:46:17 #1460 [0 Agree] [0 Spam] [0 Troll]
Good news: the spam filter is now learning - when a thread is posted, not replied to, and deleted because of it, the MD5 hash of the message is stored in the database along with a timestamp.
If somebody tries to post the message again (as a new thread), it will fail silently and the attempt will be counted in the database.

I lie to the state every year and tell them I made no online purchases. Because I think that taxing my online purchases is bullshit. I don't think it's morally wrong, but others will.

@1452 Niiice. I don't see anything wrong with that whatsoever.

I seldom do things that I have qualms about, thus I don't have many things that I have done that are "wrong" but my greatest regret was telling some one all about myself. So I'd say thats a dumb worst.
