I completely agree with you about nuclear power. I don't understand why people fail to realize the vast improvements in safety made over the last 20 or 30 years. I won't claim they're 100%, but I would live next to a reactor without any fea

Choosing to not do business with an organization for political reasons is a pretty good example of suppression. It's hardly peaceful. At best, it is passive-aggressive. At worst, an outright attack on that organization. It can especially be

A small group of geeks have taken it upon themselves to defend a website through the only means they have. Assange is rapidly becoming a persona non grata in most of the first world countries because he challenges their authority and method

Property rights are based on the premise that I cannot take what you have. Police are there to enforce this limit. Jury trials prevent unfair convictions being levied by the government. Jurors enforce this limit. Speedy trials prevent unjus

I can respect their need for work. Everybody needs to survive. The issue is what they are willing to do to survive. Are they going to actively participate in throwing their fellow citizens under the bus? Can you respect that? Do you respect

I do this currently, but I wish there was a more elegant solution. As far as I can tell from my own usage, the only portion that is uploaded is the changed portion. I have a 1GB container currently synced and when I change files in that con

Very nice interface and website. It's sleek and uncluttered. Overall, pretty enjoyable to use. -You need SSL. Badly. -You need to post a privacy policy. I need some something to reassure me before I can store private information under your
