Just store your data using ReiserFS, kill the power and your data's dead too.

One company fired Obama supporters.

You can run your own company on whatever principles you like.

No, if you run it on wrong enough (according to the government) principles, the gov't will take your money and give it to someone else (civil lawsuits) or take your money for itself, lock you in a prison with people who will try to do you grievous harm, give you a criminal record which will cause people to hate or not trust you, and take some of your rights away, often for life.

Sometimes that is appropriate, but often it is NOT.

Never say anything again?

(Half joking)

Also, the average computer hacker is likely to get raped within 41 hours, never mind 41 MONTHS! (3 YEARS, 5 months)

He's gonna get it on the inside. He'll be better off than the child molesters, but that's about it. Hacker = easy prey.

Hans Reiser was a hacker and also a killer, and he even got beat up in prison. This guy is just a hacker.

Stop blaming Obama for everything.

He inherited this mess and is doing the best he can, with Congress tying his hands.

Obama doesn't personally OK everything the Department of Justice does, he doesn't have the time to do that!

His time is spend trying to fix this country despite a Congress which is trying to block him for almost everything he is trying to accomplish, often due to hateful reasons that have no place in civilized society.

Obama has done a LOT to make gov't more accessible (White House Android app, We The People petitions, etc). Stop bashing Obama, remember Clinton signed the DMCA and Bush the 2nd signed the Patriot Act, etc, etc.

The President is a great leader, most of the Senate is passably OK, the Supreme Court is messed up in some ways but sometimes does right (in both cases usually 5-4 decisions) and the House of Representatives is basically filled with jackasses, racists and thieves.

So a blanket kick them all out isn't what we need.

We need to intelligently VOTE. We did a great job picking Obama in 2008 and 2012 (although the fact that nearly half the country voted for that sociopath who ran against him in 2012 is disheartening), but why did we screw up the House so bad in 2010? What were we thinking? Were we thinking, or just watching Fox News?

We need a good Congress to fix the laws, since Supreme Court members hold their positions for life or close to it.

Unfortunately, the President can't do much without Congress...

The Republican Party went from being about strong defense and lower taxes (*) to being hijacked by the extreme right.

Now they appear to stand for racism and for utterly destroying any social safety net in this country for the less fortunate or for seniors, and for eliminating government except for prisons and weapons.

In general, as an organization gets more extreme, moderates leave, which makes it more extreme, etc, etc.

When people refer to the President of the United States as "that black guy in the White House" (over 2 MILLION hits on Google for that phrase as of now!) or even by the N-word (bordering on treason), you know things have gotten bad.

(*) And Obama, unlike many of those before him, has actually accomplished those 2 items.

This would never happen in Las Vegas. The casinos are too sophisticated here, and so many people have tried to cheat over the years, the casinos are hip to everything.

Also, gambling is Las Vegas' only major industry, if that goes, we are hosed, unlike most other cities, so it is in our best interest (our survival) to keep the games honest and perceived as honest.

And there is more than just criminal and civil courts to deal with cheaters you know... Getting sued and/or going to prison could very well be the LEAST of a cheaters problems. Kneecaps are fragile things.

Drinking only water for a day can do it. I drank a gallon of water to try to detox, and nothing else.

When I did that one time, I started to feel REALLY wrong, I then ate a salt packet and felt 50% better in minutes, almost 100% better in an hour or so.

The bad side of technology (*), those that wanted face to face events are now denied it. The benefits of that are now gone.

Online in addition, ok, but canceling physical events, including one already scheduled and that people have already made arrangements for (travel, time off, etc) is bad.

People can socialize and network at a physical event, there are somethings online only lacks.

(*) Technology has also caused the loss of video stores, CD stores, so many things are hard to buy locally now. Technology should add options, not destroy them!

You seem to have an interesting (*) definition of 100%.

(*) i.e. mathematically impossible.

100% means NO other. so 100% "minority" means no non-"minority".

(nevermind that 100% isn't numerically a minority and we should use another word or phrase)

You sound like a Republican.

Downsizing is good?

Layoffs are good?

When even a gov't job is subject to layoffs and there is no job security ANYWHERE we have truly failed.

These are PEOPLE and LIVES you are talking about getting rid of, not machines!

Thank God we have Obama, since you Romney types would destroy so many lives if there wasn't anything to stop you.

I don't know about you all, but I'm putting some money in guillotine futures.

So you'll make money even if the gov't wins and executes all the people it doesn't like.

Win-win. (in a way)
