You don't. The new iMacs have a non-standard hard drive that must be replaced by an Apple technician.

Ban politicians from making ridiculous unenforceable bans.

Islam Inside?

See, I just assumed he meant his parents' basement.

They should get rid of all the passengers. Think about it....they wouldn't have to pay for meals, they could fire all the flight attendants and save that salary money, the seats on the planes wouldn't be needed anymore. They'd even save on fuel, since the planes would be so much lighter without all those people on board.

I always thought cheats were frowned upon in the academic world.

We're getting way off-topic here, but I couldn't disagree more. I have phones of both platforms (HTC Hero and iPhone 3G, as well as a 4 I just got), and I find my tinkering needs are well met by a jailbroken iPhone. If I couldn't jailbreak, I'd agree with you, but jailbreaking has opened up tonnes of new uses and functionality, more than enough to satisfy me.

I couldn't get MobileTerminal to work, either, so I just got iSSH from the app store. Well worth it, IMO, it can SSH to 127.0.0.1 and remote systems, too.

Abduct people, and force them to download your MP3's and warez for you. You know they won't be looking for them...

Agreed, but the inability to manually correct it is all on Google. That's the fail.

I heard about it earlier today, and clicked it up on my iPhone to check it out. It asked me if it could use my current location, and I said OK, and immediately it brought up a location thousands of miles away from me, in another country. Since this wasn't right, i tapped it, scrolled down to the search function, and typed in my current location. Buzz had the audacity to tell me that the location I typed in didn't exist, because it was not near the location it had auto-detected. Well, no shit it was nowhere near what it detected...that's what I was trying to tell it! And it was trying to tell me that I didn't know what I was talking about. It's not like I am out in the middle of nowhere (my current location is near a medium-sized American city). Fail!

Why not a politician tax, somewhere around 1% of their annual income, for the privilege of being a politician?

If it's good for the goose, it's good for the gander.

Big Business loves government regulation, because they get to control it and raise the barrier-to-entry for smaller / future competition.

Megacorps and demagogue politicians aside, regulation hurts everyone else, especially the so-called "sweatshop victims" who must now resort to even worse means of survival (if any).

A humanist position would be that which most benefits humanity and human beings. Corporations are not human beings. Money, profit margins, products, economic principles, social systems, concepts, traditions and laws are not human beings. Opposing violence and ignorance in all forms is at the core of humanist proposals. The free flow of information, ideas, and communication benefits humanity. Copying information qualifies as communication, the flow of ideas. So "copyright" and "copy-no-rights" and patent law is censorship, simply. Which is clearly demonstrated by the raids, prosecutions, arrests, spying, censorship, etc on anyone who openly disobeys the copyright law. Yes, the economic systems create diffculties, too.

To paraphrase "In a corrupt monarchy, man takes advantage of man. In a corrupt democracy, it is the other way around".
