Riiiiighhhhht....

because we ALL know that bit torrent's REAL pupose is to download Ubuntu Server iso's and Libre Office insta... GET FUCKING SERIOUS!

performance cars are marketed in ways that make it clear that they are intending for them to be driven in excess of posted speed limits.
closed circuit course. professional driver. unreadable text

arresting someone because they produce a product that can be used illegally? first off, "they" get to make anything illegal even if they don't technically have the power. then they will interpret the laws however they want. and now, prosecute people who even enable the breaking of arbitrary laws. gun, alcohol, car, knife, baseball bat, and spray paint makers should worry about the implications.

in fact, electronics tinkerers, makers of kits like arduinos, 3d printers, and about a billion other groups should be concerned with governments who grant themselves infinite power. "stalkers"... so like pedophiles and terrorists, a group we can invoke whenever we wanna get shit done.

the best part? you are forced to fund your own attacker for as long as they feel like attacking.

I will take a country bumpkin in a any emergency, including a fire, over any metro hipster you can find clutching apple products in coffee shops.

freedom of the press?
how about just freedom?

Kill?

Maybe I missed the part of the article where the car explodes if you are late.

Grave bodily injury? If the car doesn't start? You must be talking about some obvious every-day occurrence like escaping zombies or a North Korean Infantry body wave. Much less-often for sure as when someone wants to run to the local store for some milk.

The alternative MIGHT be to not lend money to people with bad credit scores. Would THAT be better? Or you want your cake and eat it too, right? Laws forcing banks to lend to people who don't pay back so well, and laws forcing banks to suck it up when they don't get paid back. Because fuck banks, we can get more votes from people who don't like paying bills and want free cars.

People lining up for free shit, and voting for whoever keeps the free shit coming... you don't call THEM sheep. Of course, call the rest of US sheep.

Not being given a car is the same as slavery?

How far we have come.

yes.

access to tax-subsidized, single-payer, webste-brokered, government enforced, individual mandate, high-quality automobiles is a basic human right!

the car doesn't belong to the driver, it belongs to whoever holds title.

Every mass-use CMS has had exploits. Even wtihout the plugin exploit problems.

did I just hear some relevent news on slashdot before i saw it on twitter?

today is a bright, shiney day!

as soon as i heard this I thought of that geenie joke from the boondock saints...
...IT guy goes, "You mean to tell me Russia is off the Internet?"
    Genie goes, "Yeah."
    He says, "Well, um, I'll have a Coke, then."

pfsense is rock solid.
even on shitty hardware, you can do a LOT with pfsense.
the turnkey boxes from their store are pretty neat too.

you must be talking about OVH and kimsufi.

Not having to manage licensing... is a gift all its own. I'm not talking about not buying licenses, I mean not having to deal with ANY of that shit for servers... a blessing.
