There’s a new law that’s about to be passed in Germany, under which a file sharer could get up to two years in jail. And they’re not talking about someone distributing the illegal software, they’re talking about the average Joe ( or Hans in this case ) who downloads software once in awhile. [...]

One of the stupidest ideas I’ve heard in a long, long time. Lately, people have been migrating towards hybrids and smaller vehicles, and are less likely to buy a huge SUV when they don’t need one.

A woman in Michigan made the tough choice between having electricity & running water, or taking care of her llamas.

A fine young lady down in good ol’ Georgia received the news recently that she was being sued for copyright infringment, using P2P programs. Ok, so maybe she was sharing some of her music for the world to enjoy. Well maybe, if she can do that WITHOUT A FREAKING COMPUTER. Good game [...]
