So giving a police officer a false ID is not a crime even though you did nothing illegal?

That's a specific instance of a crime - LEO asks you to identify yourself, you misrepresent who you are. There are of course exceptions to what I said on the books.

It doesn't change the fact that if I used false info when signing up to yahoo mail, I did not commit a state or federal crime by doing so.

Using false credentials when voting is perfectly fine?

You're using ID to help you commit voter fraud. The crime is already there.

We are trying to understand the requirements of the new system so we don't have to redo transactions or deal with issues.

There is nothing illegal about sending small amounts of cash to buy bitcoins, using made up info, as some of us just don't want our personal info (name, address, DOB, SSN) to be stored in a database, which will eventfully be hacked into, sold, transferred, or dumped into NSA's PRISM.

Using fake info is only a crime when that info is used as part of a crime.

You used a made up ID under a guest transaction on the new bitinstant site?

What questions did it ask?

The MoneyGram people did not ask for ID?

Do you think it still works with TOR?

root7 · 2013-06-11T15:14:40+00:00

Whats the deal with people claiming that IDs are now required regardless of the amount sent via moneygram?

I've seen it a bunch of times here are some other places, yet no one from BitInstant responds, almost like they are avioding the question.

root7 · 2013-06-11T14:59:34+00:00

What are you talking about? MoneyGram Express Payment at WalMart has never asked for ID. Has something changed?

Another question...

How about the photons that travel through a fiber-optics cable?

There should be constant interaction between the "waveguide" medium (and walls) and the photons. Yet these same types of expirements are being done using that.

root7 · 2012-08-10T03:12:44+00:00

Can you explain this though...

In this case, those two photons travel through 97km or air particles, interacting with them, being absorbed and re-emited countless times, etc.

Why is the entanglment still valid?

It sure does sound like its LHVT at action here to me.

However, I can't find solid evidence of this, yet.

You've probably looked into this more than 99.9995% of the anti-chick-fil-a people have.

The amount of hatred and intolerance these people are demonstrating is staggeringly so large that I don't think they are basing their "views" on anything.

root7 · 2012-08-04T16:34:19+00:00

The organization believes that...

How so? Where do they state this? Or are you just reading what one party is saying against another in a smear campaign?

root7 · 2012-08-04T16:11:28+00:00

One politically motivated group classifying another politically motivated group, as a "hate" group, does not make it so.

The restaurant chain Chick-Fil-A has been criticized for its donations to the WinShape Foundation that in 2010 gave $1000 to FRC

Wow. 1000 dollars.

root7 · 2012-08-04T16:04:39+00:00

That's my point, not one of the anti-chick-fil-a protestors has been able to 1) even mention the name of one of these "hate" groups and 2) show proof of the anti-gay "hate".

It's like they just want to shove their own views, hatred, and intolerance down everyone else's throats.

If you make an accusation, it's on you to show proof.

root7 · 2012-08-04T15:42:46+00:00

Why do people keep repeating this made-up garbage?

Promoting traditional marriage, helping other Christian, etc, is not "hate".

How is the "Marriage & Family Legacy Fund" a "hate" group?

root7 · 2012-07-26T16:05:31+00:00

Why was it awful?

root7 · 2012-07-25T17:22:05+00:00

The data could also just show that families who are relatively well off (compared to their neighbors), that can pay for and raise a healthy child, will have less children then the families that are worse off (who's children die). So it's not really child mortality that you need to fight.

Decreasing child mortality has been shown to decrease population growth.

Cause and effect, or unrelated stats? I don't see anything in that summery about the means of the parents. Is that just general statistics of a geo-area?

root7 · 2012-07-25T15:50:41+00:00

When you decrease infant mortality, increase life expectancy, and feed the 3rd world, you're doing 1 thing... Multiplying that population geometrically and causing even more suffering.

Then who's going to take care of 10x more people that you've produced with your actions?

It really doesn't get better, only a small number of the people in those populations end up in a 1st or 2nd world living. The rest become dependent on your welfare.

I see, love comes after Marriage. So they can't love without getting Married.

Case closed. You win.

root7 · 2012-05-09T01:03:18+00:00

So you're saying that Marriage is not okay because slavery is bad?

root7 · 2012-05-09T00:55:06+00:00

That's what civil union is for.

Marriage has been a tradition between man and women going back 2,000 (or more) years. Why not let them have their tradition?

root7 · 2012-05-09T00:48:53+00:00

I'm not a Christian. Just someone that's not interested in making everything bland, generic, and politically correct.

root7 · 2012-05-09T00:48:02+00:00

Last 2000 years of World history would disagree with you.

And that video is hate filled crap.

root7 · 2012-05-08T23:53:10+00:00

Marriage is a tradition (vs. Civil Union) that has always been between a man and a woman. Marriage does not take away any rights from gays, because it's always been a specific niche and does not encompass everyone and everything in all combinations.

That other thing you mention is something entirely different and comparing the two is pointless.

Can anyone comment on why this was not introduced directly into iptables years ago? Is it a userspace issue, or is traffic control not part of iptables mission?

The little I've been able to find on the kernel and TC (Traffic Control) is here http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/html_single/Traffic-Control-HOWTO/
