Hiya, AssTricks.
*>Quantum Cat, you can indeed refer to me as "ass tricks".
Cool.
*>Never mind, that even from you I expected a more
intelligent and hurtful
*>name, but hey, even you must need a rest from tim*e to
time, in between the
*>long hours of spouting off complete and utter shit.
Hey, I'm only one little kittie down to 16 half-lives. ;)
*>Nazi's protected a great many things, namely other Nazi's,
and more than a
*>few evil, sick, and twisted ideals. I would never accept
those ideals, I
Hmm.. Sorta sounds like RosyWanker coming to the Dorktors
defense. Surely you've see the smoke he blows trying to make
cover.
*>can't even bring myself to understand them, as if in fear
they would somehow
*>rub off on me. Kinda like your ideals.
I never accused you of having any understanding. There may
be an inkling there, but you don't like it so you mope and
whine. Grow up, dude.
*>Let's really think about this. You are saying that I have
the right, or
*>anyone else, for that matter, to lay claim to a particular
string of ones
*>and zeroes, and monopolize that sequence for eternity. Hem
and haw all you
*>like, make up excuses, but for all practical purposes it
is eternity. Now,
Do a little bit of math, AssTricks. Take your bit and add
another one. That doubles the potential sequences. Add
another bit. Doubles it again. Keep going. Before too
long, you have more sequences than there are particles in the
universe.
So why do you want to rip off someone elses sequence of bits
when there is essentially an infinite number of them out
there? Because you're a lazy thief and don't want to bother
actually creating a workable sequence of your very own.
*>perhaps I'm wrong. Maybe you were out there protesting
Disney's bought and
*>paid for legislation harder than anyone else. Tell me
about it. Let me know
*>how wrong I am.
I don't know anything about Disney buying legislation. Are
you picking up pointers from RosyWanker and inventing lies to
act as some kind of red herring?
*>Personally, I'm all for copyright protection. You write a
book, you write a
*>program, music, whatever it is... It's yours to profit
from for the next 14
*>years, no matter what. Then it's public domain. Just like
our good ole' US
*>Constitution guarantees.
So AssTrisks, you've been elected God when I wasn't looking?
What's wrong with protecting it for the life of author?
Because then you wouldn't get the goodies. You and your
fellow Turlettes are simply selfish cretins who want
something for nothing.
You don't have the moral high ground here, AssTricks.
*>And as for you not knowing the difference between the
'letter of the law'
*>and the 'spirit of the law'... you have to be joking, or
doing some kind of
*>'debate strategy' thing... no, wait. That's what
politicians do, deny the
*>validity of a given, so as to avoid the issue. Run for
office, so I can vote
Well, you never defined your "given" so how am I to tell what
you mean by "spirit"? As far as I can tell, that means "If
the letter of the law bothers me too much, I'll ignore it".
Am I close?
*>for you. Maybe you'll even let use wear swastika armbands,
to show how much
*>you love us.
Nah... the armbands would clash with your sheets and pointy
hoods. ;)
Judging from the Dorktors vacation pictures, you Turlettes
have absolutely NO fashion sense. :D
