Comment Re:Why is CP illegal? (Score 4, Interesting) 714

So, just for argument's sake... when I was 14 I video-taped myself masturbating on camera. 12 years later, tools came out that let me convert the video to an MPG. 12 years after THAT, is today. I'm an adult, who may or may not possess images of a sexual nature involving a minor (me). Tell me who is harmed if I decide to share them.

Putting nutrition info on the cup work when you can change what you put in the cup. The soda machine at 7-11 has 5 kinds of soda, a couple kinds of diet soda, but also iced tea, Hi-C, etc.

A diet big gulp has no calories, but I'm sure that will be banned too.

First, tracking chemicals are not a trade secret, the recipe is a trade secret. So for example, when I bake and sell cookies, I have to list the ingredients, but not the recipe. Everyone knows what's in fracking fluid.

On the second point I agree, the state should take the larger share of the profit for allowing the process.

Comment Re:Piss off, FBI (Score 1) 135

People are willingly giving information to Google, not the FBI. If I give someone my phone number, I know they're going to have it, store it, and possibly use it. I don't expect them to give it to anyone else who might ask for it.

But it's more than that. The FBI is making the argument that communication between citizens must be accessible to the government.

Comment "Organic" (Score 1) 452

Organic doesn't mean no pesticides, it means no artificial pesticides. However, artificial pesticides are used because they're more efficient, and more easily meet safety standards.

Also, "chemical" fertilizer is nonsensical jargon. Everything is a "chemical", and ALL fertilizer has the same 3 chemicals - potassium, phosphorous, and nitrogen.
