you're arguing my point. the constitution doesn't dictate drug usage for or against. hence the constitution doesn't outline that you can or cannot put certain things into your body, and therefore you can't argue constitutionality when advocating legalization (which was part of the GP's assertion) QED.

you spouted nothing more than blind conjecture with the implicit determination to end the wars altogether since we cannot 'win'. the way you are using war here versus a traditional war is an equivocation fallacy. that is, the wars on poverty and crime are not meant to be winnable (they a natural ongoing battle within society itself) whereas the war in iraq might one day be won (as this is a quarrel amongst nations).

also, there's nothing in the constitution that protects your right to smoke pot. you don't seem to understand the definition of 'unconstitutional' and, for that matter, probably couldn't be bothered to read the document (which, by the way, was not written on hemp, as i'm sure you love to tell people).

I like that the sentence begins with the benignly presupposing phrase, "Basically...", as if the material following it is set to simplify and clarify the content of the article. Then it goes on to make things more incoherent, with poor use, of punctuation, in, the explanation,. comma, comma, period.p

In other words, "blarf grrblle grble, lasne en fragne, rabble rabble rabble, chuck norris."

Nah, they probably have automatic updates on. I'd wager it's massive computer labs at high schools or colleges where there either isn't an administrator, the administrator is a fool, or the administrator is lazy. The need doesn't seem all that pressing, but ironically they have some of the strongest internet connections for worms to use.

hah, someone peed in your coffee this morning, huh? your agonized rant seems rather discordant with your signature.

Anyway, you'd think that features they promised for Vista might - just might - show up in their following release. If not, then what, exactly, are you paying for?

Also, I appear to be a glutton for punctuation.

Journal Journal: OpenBSD's second remote hole in the default installation

The OpenBSD project has just issued an advisory (and updated its website to reflect the change) that it now has its second remote root vulnerability in more than ten years. The exploit itself is performed with a specially crafted IPv6 ICMP packet, and is caused by a bug in the mbuf chains in the operating system kernel. The OpenBSD team have released a patch.
