You're in a deep load of shit if the email contains:

I mean it's like strictly prohibited and you should delete this e-mail from your system and whatever you do you should not disseminate, distribute or copy this e-mail under penalty of death apparently!

I usually respond with "Make me! :-p" but I'd really love to find a web site where I can post these...

Comment Re:Something is wrong (Score 1) 311

WFT?!? How can you say that with a straight face? You say you have nothing against the rich except of course that they make to much money. You bestow upon something that doesn't exist and that you don't identify ("the system") as if it has bestowed wealth onto an individual and has agency. Nothing could be further from the truth. People make money because they produce value, value that other people gladly part with their wealth to attain. Nobody's holding guns to anybody's heads and forcing them to part with their hard earned cash. Everybody purchases *willingly*.

And you provide absolutely no fucking evidence nor reason why it should be anything else other than presumably you just don't like it. Well who the fuck are you? Obviously somebody who has failed in his own wealth creating efforts.

Because it's difficult to understand and difficult to use and most people don't know and don't care about encryption. You don't need to put on your beany hat and start conspiracy theories with men in black SUVs - I tried to use encryption and by and large the people I tried it with were nothing but confused and couldn't see the value in it.

You need to understand how capitalism works WRT how trademarks work. Ron Paul's name is trademarked. Trademark law dictates that you must defend your trademarks or you lose them. If he loses them then he stands to lose a lot more in terms of books, speaking fees, etc. While ronpaul.com may be benign right now there is no guarantee that it will remain that way. So, he must defend his trademark. I see nothing wrong, nor non-libertarian in this action. In a truly libertarian world this might be different. But you have to work in the context of the system that you find yourself in.

WTF man! What can you do with a shitload of money? You can spend it to do things and explore the world. You can give to those in need. You can do a ton of stuff. The only thing the guy was saying to not spend it on was kids. Everything fucking other thing is open for you to spend it on. When then do you pull the bullshit of being a Scrooge?!? Are you really that dumb of a fuck? Some people don't want to be parents you nimrod and there's nothing wrong with that!

That's completely asinine! Leave commented code because the code you write to replace it will be shit. Well maybe the code you write to replace it will be shit but not the code that I write to replace it. Besides we're not talking about the code that remains - we're talking about code that's been deleted. Often that code is shit and should go - period.
