Well Said!!

Sarah Palin is by no means perfect. But is impossible to deny how much enjoyment I get just mentioning her name in front of most liberals. Especially here in Southern California!! The liberal reaction to her is by no means cerebral, but instead highlighted by its lack of proportion and rationality.

The more the liberals foam at the mouth against her, the more I find myself supporting her!

Submission + - GoogleSharing, Now With No Trust Required

An anonymous reader writes: GoogleSharing, the popular Google anonymizing service created by well known privacy advocate and security researcher Moxie Marlinspike, has released a major new version today. The biggest change is leveraging Google's SSL search option to provide an anonymizing service which doesn't require you to trust either Google or GoogleSharing. This means that anyone who wishes to opt out of Google's data collection practices can now do so without having to trust the operator of the anonymizing service.

Submission + - Take This GUI and Shove It (infoworld.com) 1

snydeq writes: "Deep End's Paul Venezia speaks out against the overemphasis on GUIs in today's admin tools, saying that GUIs are fine and necessary in many cases, but only after a complete CLI is in place, and that they cannot interfere with the use of the CLI, only complement it. Otherwise, the GUI simply makes easy things easy and hard things much harder. 'If you have to make significant, identical changes to a bunch of Linux servers, is it easier to log into them one-by-one and run through a GUI or text-menu tool, or write a quick shell script that hits each box and either makes the changes or simply pulls down a few new config files and restarts some services?' Venezia writes. 'And it's not just about conservation of effort — it's also about accuracy. If you write a script, you're certain that the changes made will be identical on each box. If you're doing them all by hand, you aren't.'"

Comment I RTFA'd and found a few gems... (Score 1, Interesting) 634

From ICLEI's web site their "approach links local action to internationally agreed-upon goals and targets such as: (the UN''s) Agenda 21". Agenda 21 is environmentalism and redistribution of wealth all rolled up into one. One of the Agenda 21 section heads is "International cooperation to accelerate sustainable development in developing countries and related domestic policies". Agenda 21 further states that "the major cause of the continued deterioration of the global environment is the unsustainable pattern of consumption and production, particularly in industrialized countries" In EZ speak, we are to blame for poverty, and AGW. Their solution is to give our money to developing countries, and to change our domestic policies to accomplish this task.
It's not a conspiracy, it's their stated goals. So YES, this seemingly innocuous bike program IS the very foot in the door that Maes is worried about. If you are not worried that someone is using mild mannered programs, like bike sharing, to start the ball rolling for global redistribution of wealth, and succeeding sovereignty to the UN, then you have NOT RTFA'd.

LOL. Your grasp of concepts like "sample size" and "not making gross overstatements in a discussion", combined with "foul language", make it virtually impossible to gather any wisdom from talking to you. Admittedly, It is fun to use a trolls own words to undermine his statements. But that alone is not a compelling enough reason to continue this discussion.

I am not interested in getting "the last word", so feel free to cuss away, and insult me me personally, in a final effort make yourself look foolish.

THX for playing.
