>lobbied Congress to allow cheap wheat from overseas to be brought in without import taxes.

There's your problem right there, government intervention of market forces.

it was absolutely insane for the FBI to go after this so aggressively while real crimes go unpunished.  Yes, Swartz shouldn't have done this, and it broke the law.  But it was not 35 years in prison shit.  That was insane.  In light of the fact the "victim" basically asked them to drop it, it was overkill prosecution.  Whoever spent years and maybe millions of tax dollars prosecuting this bullshit should be out of a job.


Symptoms of a sick, degenerate and out of control bureaucratic government.

>In 2009 Mr. Swartz downloaded 19 million pages of federal court documents from a government database system, acting on the belief that they should be made available free.

Oh wow, I remember this now. What a dumbass.

You don't enter a server room where you know damn well you're not supposed to be in because "everything should be free,man ".


Yes, of course, if it where government documents. But not when it's privately funded research. Sometime it IS in the public's best interest to not know.


That's why not every country has the same technological advances.

Even to the point where Irrigation techniques themselves are industry/government secrets.

I'm still waiting on my asshamsters, are you backlogged or what?

You are a f*cking idiot! I told you we are not backlogged! We are just waiting for a call from our Asian benefactors when to expect the Asshamster stuffing. There will be an update on the week of Jan 13th with great news. Honest Abe.

We also show living (sort of) asshamsters at CES. But don't come and visit us - we don't want visitors.




Excuuse me princess.  Roll Eyes



What a douche. Is trying to be funny or is he really that arrogant?
Did he know that he was talking to micon? It looks like he did.

Even if BFL won't scam I wouldn't give them a quarter.

Josh mentioned pokering seals so I'm guessing he knew who it was he was insulting.

What exactly was he looking at 35 years in prison for? Wasn't what he did legal?

After reading this last a few minutes ago, I wondered if this guy was on SSRI meds or something.  There ought to be better ways to get people that bottle up their emotions to seek help.

A swallow your pride pill so to speak.

I mean, how troubled was the guy that his only way out was a premature death, he should have been rich,m reddit.com sold for a lot of money if I remember correctly.
329  Other / Off-topic / Re: Need to help a friend. I have a weird plan... please Read On. on: January 12, 2013, 09:33:50 PM
We don't know the guy.

We don't know the woman.

And the DCS has kidnapped these kids for a second time now, giving them "back""(because kids are property), to the same woman the government tooks the kids away from in the first place. For a bad environment.

We don't know the whole story.

And we don't know you.

And you're already biased aginst this "crazy rich dad", so no neutrality from you.

I suggest no one gets involved in any of this because after all, worst case scenario, this is an elaborate scam.

Hell, DANK still posts around with his attention whoring bullshit and people it that shit up by the spoonfull. Even after saying he has no intention of paying back his funder for his "million man concert" Squall, to the tune of over40BTC. But this is a tangent, although a CAVEAT EMPTOR.

331  Other / Off-topic / Re: Perpetual motion device - Free Energy - Do you believe in it? on: January 12, 2013, 05:41:29 PM
It's not a scam, perpetual motion has been modeled a lot in the past, and for the most part can work, like those plastic birds with that liquid in them, that always go down and up.


The hardship comes in harvesting that free energy. See how at first the little metal piece flies off? Imagine that happening in an electric output battery for a big city, an explosion would ensue, the ground would shake violently, then the city loses power and everyone thinks it's a terrorist attack. Or the end of the world if your town is religious.


It's not a scam, but using magnetism would not be profitable since at some point itcan stop spinning without flying off.


So his piece isn't exactly perpetual.


[Edit] Not a fan of "free perp. energy". I'd much rather huge tesla coils shoot lightning at a big anntennae at our houses periodically and all electric devices can usewirless electricity. I fucking hate chords
332  Other / Off-topic / Re: What to do if you're crazy about a girl that has a boyfriend? on: January 12, 2013, 05:26:21 PM
Smiley

So I sent her a funny email the other day, and she said "thanks I needed that, had a terrible day today".

Que pasa? My instinct gave me a moment of hope, and it was right on this: a quick FB check and I noticed her relationship status had just been changed to "single". Confirmed!

Although I don't wish her any "terrible days", inside I'm just screaming Wooooooooooooooohoooooooo!!

The hard thing about catching a girl on the rebound is making sure she doesn't go back to her old boyfriend.

To avoid this you need to make her accustomed to you and fast!

Does BFL truly have $25 MILLION in pre orders?

Babby couldn't handle trying acid like Blazr (420 blaze it) said.  He was weak minded and fell into the introspective trap of "comingto realizations, man".

He also predicted a tsunami, for what it's worth.

Scams are everywhere, literally. Every corporation in the world is a scam. Every sales person is a scammer. Every relationship involves one person scamming another.

Wow, and I though I had a dim view of humanity.

He's probably an ex EVE player.

What a fucking asshole, I wonder how many people are going try to pull orders when they see that "BFL_Josh" blatently tells someone to "get a fucking clue" when the man walks up and asks him "What is this box, I am having trouble understanding what it is"

Not BFL asshamsters!
Just have a read at https://forums.butterflylabs.com/pre-sales-questions/668-sounds-like-fun-angry-guy-visiting-bfl-ces-2013-a-4.html#post10082

Comments are like:
I might just buy another Single SC after listening to that.
+1 to Josh


See? BFL lemmings want to be scammed!

I'm still waiting on my asshamsters, are you backlogged or what?

There's issues since the original owner sold the site months ago to a guy in what I think is hong kong and never told any one about it, sold also, his forum account here.

Really weird things going on hejre.
