I wonder what the toilet version of The Blue Screen of Death is.
I wonder what the Slashdot version of "Why did the Chicken cross the road?" is.
To die. In the rain. Oh wait, that was Ernest Hemingway.
But a DMCA takedown is a lot easier, clearly.
A DMCA takedown requires making a declaration under penalty of perjury, which you cannot legally do unless you understand the meaning of the declaration. This seems to suggest that monkeys cannot file DMCA takedowns, however easy they are to generate. They'd need to employ a lawyer to do it for them. And working for monkeys should be no problem to the kind of lawyer that will work for, say, the RIAA.
That's it! I really must protest you and GP's libelous remarks about monkeys! Monkeys form communities. They look out for each other and care about the social groups they form. They lament the loss of their loved ones. Do lawyers or the RIAA do any of this???
How dare you, sir!
So again, why would DPRK quitting the UN be a bad thing?
Well, as I understand it, Kim il Jong is not long for this world (thankfully). Maybe his son will be more reasonable? Or, at least we can start on him early and try to do better with the next generation of North Koreans. Plus, the North Korean citizens growing up now are part of what is called "the stunted generation" due to the food shortages in the 90's. Despite desperate flag waving, some of them probably realize it is not America's fault that they grew up so severely malnourished.
It is a slave state, where the population is callously used up as so many food powered robot slaves.
And don't forget the concentration camps in North Korea. If you don't show the utmost fealty to the Great Leader, or if you defect, your whole family will be sent to one to work as slaves until they die. That's one of the reasons defections are so rare. That, and to get through the electric fences separating North and South, you need two people willing to defect. One of the two will almost invariably be electrocuted trying to get through the electrified wires.
But on the other hand, there does eventually come a point where failure has dragged on long enough that one must consider changing their approach.
Sounds like my first wife!
Booming middle class? How exactly does the middle class boom when everything they buy costs 20, 30, 40% more (or worse) because of all the taxes being passed down to them by the corporations?
Any time you want to figure out answers on corporate taxes, ask yourself a very simple question: who pays for any and all costs incurred by any given company?
(hint: its customers)
So, what you are saying then, is that the whole Capitalist notion of price competition is a lie???
The only people who dont seem to understand this are the tea-baggers, but I don't find that particularly surprising, since their total understanding of economics is, "Taxes Bad."
WTF have tea-baggers got to do with economics or politics? Is it really true the USA now has a political movement devoted to tea-bagging?
It's related to the "Invisible Hand".
If you tax the hell out of the biggest corporations and wealthiest individuals, what do you think happens?
We wind up with the kind of booming middle class and first-world infrastructure we had during the 50's to 70's?
It's not the goal of Tea Party Republicans to get re-elected. The majority of them are operatives for the Tea Party, which is controlled by militia operatives. They want to overthrow the US government itself even if it means launching a civil war.
They are deliberately trying to create an economic crisis because that is the best way to trigger a civil war. They already have the guns, they have the organization(militias) built up, they are ready. The sad thing is most American citizens aren't ready for it or don't want it. But when enough American citizens lose their careers, their jobs, and have no government benefits whatsoever to count on, no unemployment, no welfare, no food stamps, no anything, then the militias can give them one last job.
It's a recruitment tactic. The US government uses the same tactic of sanctions when it wants to overthrow a dictator. It's also because the Tea Party militias are tired of funding the government which is trying to investigate and crush them despite the fact that they've infiltrated the US government and control many politicians, there are still FBI agents who want to crush the Tea Part movement or any extremist movement that seeks to violently overthrow the government or cause a civil war.
Well, I have an idea. The Tea Party supporters who don't already live in the Southeastern United States (aka The Confederacy) can all move there and let the people who don't want to be a part of it emigrate to another part of the country. Then, the Southeast can secede from the Union again. I swear, we won't stop you this time!
True - until the companies figure out it's much less hassle to "outsource" the whole stuff to Russia or Japan, both having the capability, program and funding to continue their launches. American astronaut in sovjet rocket stepping on the moon in his made-in-china boots? I dunno...
Of course, while they are on the moon, the astronauts will find out the Chinese executive in charge of the boot factory decided to cut corners in production, so the sealant in the boots comes loose while they are on the moon. The air bleeds out of the suits, killing all the astronauts. A week later, the executive is found guilty and shot by a firing squad.
Giant steps are what you take,
Walking on the moon.
I hope my boots don't break,
Walking on the moon.
Yeah! The US should start sending aid to Pakistan and Afghanistan, and help get them on back their feet so they can take care of themselves! Why has no-one thought of this before?!
Try talking to people who have actually been to Afghanistan to
And we're also *this close* to winning the war on drugs...
Unless you want to try and make a case for terrorist groups having strength from drug sales, that's an irrelevant conclusion.

I can't believe you and I are the only 2 people in this entire thread who can see this for what it is -- legal pictures of people in public used for art. This guy should get a pro bono constitutional lawyer and sue his way into enough money for his next exhibition.
So, if I follow you around, take pictures of your every move, and upload it to the internet, that would be okay??? Just because you are in public doesn't mean it's okay to have your every move tracked. Perhaps at this point in time it is technically legal, but that is not how it should be in a civilized society.
Without life, Biology itself would be impossible.
