I honestly don't know what the legality of intimidation is. That's part of the problem with discussing hate crime legislation. It's a class of laws, rather than one specific law where you can argue the loopholes and so on. One of skarka's friends says that the law which the president vetoed didn't p...

However, the guy I quoted gave it context, so in that case it's not just a number. Even in the context of the post, though, it's not actually useful -- you can't run right out and infringe using just that number. Other technology is required; just speaking the magic number to your HD DVD player won...

I went back to skarka's LJ one more time to see if there was anything but drama in it. I found this: I see it as a matter of balance. You see, there are degrees of murder that reflect the motive of said murder. For example, if you kill someone because you were in a car and he was on a bike, and you ...

Well, without context, ANY number or alphanumeric sequence is worthless. So I can see that flat out ownership of the number is kind of strange. However, the guy I quoted gave it context, so in that case it's not just a number. I can understand the company's desire to do something about information b...

It's really childish to post something online and then expect only pats on your back for it. I always take into account that anyone can read my livejournal - people I know as well as virtual strangers. If I post about something I obviously don't expect it to be kept a secret. Is there a difference ...

"Queer or Female? Too Bad."
Ada already found this one, but: Bush has threatened to veto a bill passed by the House of Representatives on Thursday that expands hate-crime laws to include attacks based on sexual orientation or gender.Read here, and get pissed off.

"It's just a number"
The first thing that piqued my interest over there was this: Just A Number There's been some interesting things happening on teh Intarwebs. A while back, a guy who was pissed off that he couldn't play his lawfully-purchased HD-DVDs on his Linux system due to a failure in the anti-copying system, did...

"Don't argue with me!"
Why do people put stuff in public livejournals and then tell anyone who disagrees with them to leave? If you just want to get your circle of friends to slap you on the back and agree with your opinions, they have friends only posting for that. I have two more topics spawned from http://gmskarka.live...

I'm still working out how to say this in a concise manner, but I missed the nature of debating here. Well, I guess that's concise, or compact at least. Here's the long version. When this place shut down I still had an itch to debate things online. I went to Animalball at first, but most of the discu...

That's pretty well put, Elf. I think the recognition thing is mostly about promotions and such over here. As for the nigger paradox, I think it's a matter of expected intent. When black people call each other nigger, there's the assumption that they are acknowledging a common heritage of oppression ...

Freakin' awesome that Bulldrek is back, if for no other reason than animalball is blocked by virtually all hospital content filters. I figured that was because Brasky used Animalball as a mirror to spam RPG.net from damn near every hospital in the country during his various birthing adventures. Som...

I was just thinking (and if I thought this would happen, I wouldn't spoil the joke this way) that if I were running things*, I'd ban SP for a day. Just for the funny and to give him those bragging rights. *I know we're an anarcho-something collective. I'm still not able to ban anyone. I don't really...

Was that insanity, or inanity? It could really go either way... Yeah, I think those were the good times. We had just enough shared imagery to keep it interesting, and not enough baggage to let it seem stale. Not that I ever took part in much of the violence, but I enjoyed reading it. But you know it...

What will you miss?
Some obvious facts: - Obviously, people stopped caring a while ago, or this place wouldn't be shutting down. - Also obviously, the community is still in some sort of fractured existence. However, those being said, this place had a uniqueness to it that won't come again. What will/do you miss about t...
