Not me! Did you watch the video? It's an awesome idea, and I just couldn't stop laughing!
My early years on a computer were spent cracking the DRM (I think we just called it copy protection back then) on Commodore video games and sharing them with friends. It was fun and a good learning experience.
I may or may not have used my BBS to amass a staggeringly huge collection of pirated games, some of which you probably cracked. On behalf of teenage me - thank you for your efforts.
The only question is - can Putin visualize the worst case scenario at all or has he completely lost his mind?
He's just confident that the west will let him have Ukraine. Unfortunately, I don't think he's wrong. Will be interesting to see if we ever draw a line somewhere and then what we do when he crosses it...
Thing is, the leak didn't originate at 4Chan. Of course the pics were re-posted there quickly, but they were re-posted in many other places as well - Reddit for one.
The FBI would never shut down 4Chan. Why would they? They have everyone who posts there centralized in one place where they can easily keep an eye on the rather than spread across the net...
Yeah, I think we're missing a big chunk of the story. He constitutionally can't be held against his will unless he's being charged with a crime past a certain point (24 hours I think?) Of course the cops know this, and if this went down exactly as reported the cops would also know they'd be setting themselves up for a HUGE lawsuit.
If it DID go down like the reports we have, I hope this guy sues the fuck out of the cops and the school and wins. But something makes me think we might not know the whole story.
I've been using them since early April of this year, and so far so good. Aside from this incident, I think there was one other instance where I was down for maybe 15 minutes.
That said, they're overpriced and I don't trust them at all. If the Comcast thing goes through I'll be looking at my options, but unfortunately I don't think I have many good ones.
CERN isn't filled with scientists, it's filled with retards that can't think of a better way to probe the universe than to smash stuff and see how it breaks apart. It's the physics equivalent of a "doctor" trying to model the inside of the nose throat and lungs by looking at the pattern produced when someone sneezes. It's tard-science, plain and simple.
Alright, I'll bite: How would you do it, then?
It's also more or less refuted in TFA:
Another theory is that the Egyptians attached quarter circle rockers to the flat surfaces of the blocks effectively turning them into cylinders and allowing them to be rolled. Experiments have shown that this method allows the blocks to be moved relatively quickly with just a few men.
But this method also has a disadvantage— these cylinders would exert huge pressure on the ground causing considerable damage to roads. Modern estimates of the rate at which the pyramid was built suggest that workers put in place some 40 blocks per day. In that case, even well-engineered roads would have required considerable maintenance.
4chan.
Ok, point taken.
No, that started with a spelling checker.
No, you're thinking of the Borg. GP is talking about the Bord.

I really don't want to know what the robots will learn when they start watching Chatroulette...
A lot about male anatomy would be my guess.
Meanwhile on slashdot the 5-insightful pro-nuclear shills were attacking anyone saying a meltdown was obvious. You can go look at the posts in the threads, they are still there for everyone to see how wrong they were then & now.
Pro-nuclear shills vs. anti-nuclear shills!
