SOPA / PIPA - Hacker Manifesto - General Topics

This is our world now... the world of the electron and the switch, the
beauty of the baud. We make use of a service already existing without paying
for what could be dirt-cheap if it wasn't run by profiteering gluttons, and
you call us criminals. We explore... and you call us criminals. We seek
after knowledge... and you call us criminals. We exist without skin color,
without nationality, without religious bias... and you call us criminals.
You build atomic bombs, you wage wars, you murder, cheat, and lie to us
and try to make us believe it's for our own good, yet we're the criminals.
Yes, I am a criminal. My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is
that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like.
My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive me
for. I am a hacker, and this is my manifesto. You may stop this individual,
but you can't stop us all... after all, we're all alike.

Nice

I was never a fan of apple's products, but I respect this man for contributions during his time with us...Jobs has revolutionized the computer age, it's amazing how one man did so much, a true genius he is and will remain.
true
apple became apple because of jobs and apple is still in business because he came back to them.
i didnt really like his cockiness but there is no doubt he was a big part of where we are today in the computer industry.
and if any one needed the of apple part of the thread to know who steve jobs was, than they live in a cave
RIP Steve !
R.I.P. Steve Jobs. You will be missed.

It is true that many of our troops die fighting for our nation, however they do not share the same recognition as the man who has significantly impacted technology, he might have influenced some of the tech soldiers use now. I'm not saying troops don't deserve the same attention, because they do but won't be getting it.
Must have hit him hard when Samsung fired back just now and sued Apple to slow down their release of the iphail4s overseas.
RIP Jobs

I guess I should make a thread for every soldier who is killed in action. Sure, Steve Jobs contributed alot to technology, and he might as well be the Thomas Edison of our time, but soldiers deserve much more respect.

I believe your anger is wrongly directed!! Coming from a military background and a military family I have mad respect for the soldiers that fight and die for this country!! But its still ok to give credit and respect where they are due!! After all this is a technology site?? And what about all the soldiers saved due to the technology and innovations made by this man and all the future soldiers that will be spared because of the foundations this man has set in technology!!

Yea Steve and Bill are the founders of the PC era, regardless of their tactics. They have influenced the direction of almost everything technically related in this day and age. More importantly they produced strong competition and created a will to do better. They are, were, and forever will be my heroes.
On a lighter note, it was probably the release of the iPhone 4S that was the final nail in the coffin ("Where is the iFone [email protected]#").
Hehe. Thanks Steve. RIP.

Probably on a military-based website. This is a technology-based website where we discussing the death (and impact) of a death of one of its founders. Seems relevant.
Talking about dead military and those that died at war is not the topic and is what we should NOT be talking about as it is irrelevant. Neither is the topic of starving children or battered women or the economy... those have separate threads.

Without Woz (and after him, PARC, Jonathan Ive, Scott Forstall, etc), there would be no Apple, true. Without Jobs, Apple wouldn't be Apple, though. We saw how the company foundered, marginalized and distracted, when not under his leadership. (Fifteen hundred different models of indistinguishable Performa/LC/PowerMac models; overpriced underperforming Newtons; rebadged Canon printers; OpenDoc; Taligent/Pink/Copland ...)
I know Woz (not well, but I have met him in person (through John "Cap'n Crunch" Draper, back when The Cap'n was flinging 3.5" disks of PGP around raves). I love Woz. I was an Apple IIe/IIgs user back in the day. But Woz' contributions were of a day. All too quickly, the bare-metal hacks of elegance Woz excelled at -- nybble disk reading routines with 1:1 interleave; tricky hi-res NTSC video output -- they just weren't necessary anymore.
I think it's telling that Jobs went on to usher into the world standard-setting new gadgets until his dying days, whereas Woz tried to launch a universal remote control, put together some jam sessions, and then basically retired to teach middle school kids and play around on his Segway and other new gadgets -- all of them engineered by other people.

Jobs was a charismatic mascot who used his companies perceived underdog status, marketing acumen and relationship with mass media providers to generate massive amounts of undeserved hype for his average at best products.
The biggest standards set by apple while Jobs was in charge was patent trolling and
frivolous lawsuits.
Good on Woz for not being a fanboi.

We've been a british colony since 1913. It's better for you to go research it yourself, but if you must know, I'll tell you how. Also, our money hasn't been backed by gold, and we haven't OWNED ANY GOLD AT ALL, since 1937.
---------- Post added at 03:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:51 AM ----------
The flag in Washington's District of Columbia has 3 red stars, each symbolizing a city state within the three city empire. The three city empire consists of Washington D.C., London, and Vatican City. London is the corporate center of the three city states and controls the world economically. Washington's District of Columbia city state is in charge of the military, and the Vatican offers spiritual guidance. The constitution of the district of Columbia operates under a tyrannical roman law known as lex fori, which in no way resembles the U.S. constitution.
When congress passed the act of 1871, it created a separate corporate government for the District of Columbia. This allowed the District of Columbia to operate as a corporation outside the constitution.
If you take a moment to study some signed treaties and charters between the United States and Britain, you will find that the United States has always been a British crowned Colony. In 1606, King James (yes, the King James who revised the bible) signed the charter of Virginia. The charter granted Americas British forefathers a license to settle and colonize America. The charter also guaranteed future kings and queens of England would have sovereign authority over all citizens and colonized land in America.
In 1783, the Paris peace treaty was signed. This treaty identifies the King of England as the prince of the United States contradicting the belief that America won the war of independence. And although King George III of England gave up most claims over his American colonies, he kept his right to continue receiving payments for his business ventures of colonizing America. If America won the war of independence, why would the agree to pay reparations to the king.
When the 13th amendment to the constitution was passed, the U.S. president was made subservient to the King of England. The 13th Amendment (the title of nobility amendment) forbids U.S. officials from using royal titles like king, or prince. For some strange reason though, the 13th amendment which was ratified in 1810 no longer appears in current copies of the U.S. constitution.
The war of independence against the British bankrupted America and turned its citizens into debt slaves of the king. In 1812, the British torched and burned the white house and all U.S. government buildings to the ground, destroying many ratification records of the U.S. constitution.
Then, nearly a century later, a corrupt U.S. congress committed the biggest theft in world history. They passed Paul Warburgs federal reserve act of 1913, handing over Americas gold and silver reserves (and total control of Americas economy) to the federal reserve bank. Most Americans still believe the FED is owned by the government, but it is not. The FED is a privately owned banking system whose majority class A shareholders include the Rothschild's, Warburgs, J.P. Morgan, the Rockefeller's and the Lehman brothers.
Most U.S. citizens believe the United States is a country and the president is its leader, but the U.S. is not a country, it is a corporation, and the president is not our leader, he is the president of the corporation of the U.S. The president, along his elected officials work for the corporation, not for the American People.

I've dedicated the greater portion of my prior-service life to true patriotism. To the poster above shortbus, Zeitgeist is old news, and a FRAUD. It makes some good points and observations, but it is wrought with factual obfuscation and misdirection.
For anyone who might be on the same level as I... they know we are here, they know we are awake, they know they must begin to take action to protect themselves from patriots. The trick on the battlefield has always been, to out-strategize the enemy. America has been classified as a battlefield by the government since the Patriot Act. Only recently have they begun publicly acknowledging it, and taking the necessary steps to creat controlled flashpoints.
I'll say it one more time....

It's actually real! Pocket Voodoo

For anyone who is searching for a remedy to reduce stress!
A Voodoo Doll, used in the Voodoo religion, represents the spirit of a specific person as a result of a special ritual. After the ceremony, the owner has an opportunity to influence the person in accordance with his wishes and desires, using a Voodoo doll as a mediator. The application will help you to master witchcraft skills.
For anyone who is searching for a remedy to reduce stress!
Very often it is another person who we blame for our stress. Create a doll similar to your offender by adding a photo or burning out a name. Punish your insulter by poking the doll with needles, setting it on fire or just sending a bullet through it. Read out the magic spells and, who knows, perhaps it will have an impact in real life.
But keep in mind that the outcome of voodooism hasn’t yet been studied thoroughly. Be careful and think a thousand times before using the knowledge acquired!

[GAME]New Pokemon game in development

Hi, everybody, i'm developing a pokemon 2d platform game for android.
take a look at :
http://igg.me/p/307142/x/1796529
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXDFkWrdzdU
please help me make this fan made game a reality,
after its done it will be totally free and free of Ads. :good:
if you can't back me at indiegogo just simply give it a Like and spread the word
The game begins just like in the gameboy color pokemon games, you pick one of bulbasaur, charmander, squirtle or pikachu then justo pass throught level wich are the main scenarios in the kanto region like viridian forest, caves, st anne.
You need to collect coins in order to improve and evolve your pokemon, so you can continue pass the next levels wich are obviouly more and more difficult.
Sounstracks are the originals from the gameboy versions, and art comes from free sources.
If you help me by backing the project at indiegogo.com you can get a special personalized edition of the game with the pokemon of your choice
Wow thats awesome, i have been waiting for this for a long time!! Great work and don't give up!
