That's extremely low-hanging fruit to make a derogatory comment on. . .so I won't. :roll:


Oh. . .and my article is more a short presentation on the CRUSHING cost of digital piracy.

We all know the copyright money losses are a load of crap. Even worse is when they try to use "real values" like the number of seeders + lechers on torrents and they not only count the same torrent for each tracker (multiplying the amount) but they use the fake torrents that show up at the top of most lists. I can recall searching for an Ubuntu torrent and seeing thousands and thousands of seeders and lechers on entries called "Ubuntu Full Episodes". The MPAA has actually had the gual to use such numbers for things that no one even bothers to pirate because it sucks so bad they won't even take it for free. Hell if I searched for "Amazing Rabbit Police in Space fighting Unicorns" I would probably see an entry with 10k seeders as a fake ad on an otherwise blank page.

Residents outraged as massive ‘Porno Palace’ opens next to convent. I myself believe that a club has a right to exist near anything it wants and that the state should back them instead of the religious protesters.

Heh, my iPod contains 75,000 Jobs.

Steve Jobs.

They should make that an Apple-specific measurement.
Wait, nearly 5Mm/h? Wow.

As I watched. . . without reading the text of the article, I thought the sound seemed a little too "awesome" and hearing the impact on the water of the other SRB was a sure giveaway. I would have had a slight delay of the sound from the SRB hitting to add some realism.

And I think I can lower the unemployment to 2007 levels by selling my PC. ;)

Useless gimmick. Cum is like tofu, whatever you ate before is usually what it'll taste like when it comes out. It's also good for your skin, hair, and nails.

There's also a lot of cooking recipes with the stuff.

No, but I don't like my ice cream companies becoming political.

I'm all for that, however I am not a big fan of people that try to make me swallow their opinion while I eat. ;)

The problem is that they already have it...but they called it civil partnership, they are now campaigning to use the word marriage, which quite allot of people think they shouldn't, I expect it will all fall over in the details when the law wants to know who is the "Husband" and who the "Wife"... I'm all for liberty and people living life as they want to, but at in the end you have to recognise that some people just have issues with themselves that they want everyone else to fix for them. Well sorry we can't, and were still going to laugh at you if you have a white wedding...because its funny, try changing that too!
