i dont know, i've never really fucked with a mac
i know NOTHING about them at allThat's the point, you don't need to know shit to use them. My old man, who is completely computer illiterate, uses a Mac and loves it. Easy to use with less problems.
And if you're a propeller head like me you can drop into a Unix shell and go wild. Mac OS X is superb.

A little dubstep yo

Not sure, am I allowed to mention the surveillance state I live in here or is that considered too political? Honest question.
-
Ssshhhhhhhh

You can mention it, but depending on where you go with it, it could be an issue. Sorry, but the definition gets a little vague around current events. Well, the police state has been developing for years, but the fact that we've become aware of it is current…

I'm just going to leave it there. I can see how something like this could evolve into a debate and I don't want that. More importantly, I want to respect the forum.
Instead, I'm going to complain about the NBC crew that's been covering the NHL Western Conference Finals. Bad camera work making me seasick, bad production cutting away from the action at just the wrong time, and really poor commentary. Go Hawks, let's end this misery tonight!

Good lad, that's what "they" wanted you to post

What can I say, I'm fully Big Bro 2.0 compliant.

Lori and I just drove into Texas to eat at smoke. Please pray for us.

Is it this place? Holy smokes, I'd smoke that menu.

On the undiscussed topic. I'm surprised how many people are caught out by this. Lawful Intercept is a concept all ISPs and Telcos must subscribe to. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawful_interception No ifs or buts, part of the regulation of being an ISP/Telco. What happens with their legal interception of data is anyone's say, but it's untracable.
In 2008 AT&T was pinged for putting a NSA wiretap in the core of the internet (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_641A).
I assume that this stuff has been happening, and will continue to happen.
Now my intent is not to talk about rights or amendments, just the reality of a what is that has been long running and my surprise people are shocked about it.

I feel this way year after year. I'm just glad I have consistent access to CBC…

I do love Doc Emerich, but everything else sucks about their coverage.

Hmmmm, I'm going to be in Dallas in a couple of weeks. I'll have to try and get over there, especially since mapquest tells me I'll be staying 2.76 miles away…
