darthcamaro writes "On Monday of this week, the primary servers that kept those infected with the DNSChanger malware were taken offline. It's a story that sparked lots of media hype with people claiming that hundreds of thousands of people could lose their Internet access. As it turns out, major U.S. ISPs including Verizon, Cox, AT&T and CenturyLink all kept their own DNSChanger servers online, protecting any users from losing their access."

First time accepted submitter dintech writes "The Wall Street Journal reports that while Sony considered online-only content distribution for its next-generation Playstation, the manufacturer has decided that the new console will include an optical drive after all. Microsoft is also planning to include an optical disk drive in the successor to its Xbox 360 console as the software company had concerns about access to Internet bandwidth."

Obviously, we're not paying the TSA agents enough money to do their jobs. If we provided them with ample salaries, they would never resort to these underhanded methods to earn a little extra on the side. Problem solved. /s

The actual question is why weren't you a responsible parent and with your son?
If you'd been with your son they'd have sent him through with you and there'd have been no problem.
And if the rape victim had not worn that dress, she would not have been raped. Right?

You replace the current crop of voters with a group that actually bothers to get informed and refuses to tow the party line, and you'll see things change real fast.
The phrase is actually "toe the line" and not "tow the line." I just thought you might like to know, and it is not an attempt to invalidate your claim based on a mistake.
Additionally, I think blaming the voters is akin to blaming the victim. Blaming the electorate is an easy way out when there are scores of other problems such as campaign contributions, the two party system, a heavily biased media ecosystem, voter disenfranchisement (e.g. requiring people to obtain IDs in order to vote to combat a non-existent voter fraud issue), etc.
You know, you can be voted into office running for one party and switch to the other after you have won the election. How is that the voter's fault?

DC Comics Announces "Before Watchmen" 130
eldavojohn writes "Currently DC Comics' site has a banner announcing a new series called "Before Watchmen." Unfortunately the blog pages for this new series appear to be experiencing high traffic and are unreachable. But a number of sites are breaking down these new endeavors that will be giving backstories to the seven characters and who will be creating each of those series. There's also speculation ranging from how much this must upset Alan Moore (egg frying on his forehead seems to be the popular guess) to the theory that this is simply for more movie material. There's an abundance of information from interviews released today."

Yeah, you always get put into for a justified reason (you didn't say justified, but by the tone of your post it's pretty well implied by you). Maybe you were busted under a sodomy law for having anal sex with your wife because some cop had it out for you. For that, you really ought to lose your rights and get paid jack shit for your work. Yep. Completely justified.
Note: sodomy is no longer a felony, but it used to be and highlights how retarded it is to think that just because you're sent to prison you deserve it or it's right.
