    The greatest thing about the Jedi story is that Tesco (the store in question) have really gotten into it, saying

    "Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda and Luke Skywalker all appeared hoodless without ever going over to the Dark Side and we are only aware of the Emperor as one who never removed his hood."

    and most tellingly

    "If Jedi walk around our stores with their hoods on, they'll miss lots of special offers."

    I personally can't wait to see if they have a "No Droids" rule.

    I'm pretty sure ED is not a lifesaver. It's embarrassing for some guys.

    Also, are there no females dying in combat? I'm not familiar with the intricacies of US Army gender rules. If they aren't, I applaud them in addition to just serving.

    Seriously? The "International Church of Jediism"? I don't even know how to feel about this. Is he the only member? Does this 23 year old have a following? He probably founded this as a club so he can look cool on internet forums and to his online gaming "friends". Yep, no respect for this guy...

    I have the same username on virtually all sites, and the same password everywhere (except certain sites and sites that demand more than 6 characters). You know what my "special" password is for the 8 characters or longer is? My lastnamefirstname. Or an outdated candy. Isn't that lame? But idk anyone who would want my accounts, with the dumb crap I put on them I usually don't want them either.

    @MF350z: Wanting, at least, a silver star!:

    There is more material in the public domain as torrents than illegal material. Maybe you've just been looking for the illegal material.

    I bet you're one of those a-holes that wants to make guns illegal because a few criminals use them. Let's apply the same logic to the internet. BRING THE WHOLE INTERNET DOWN, ITS USED FOR TOO MANY ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES.

    @balls187: You missed the point. Torrents are not inherently illegal; it’s the type of content that is being distributed by them that determines their legality.

    Reading Comprehension Fail.

    (Back online in a few hours.)
    We have, ourselves, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once more able to defend our Internets, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone.
    Even though large parts of Internets and many old and famous trackers have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Ifpi and all the odious apparatus of MPAA rule, we shall not flag or fail.
    We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the ef-nets and darknets, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Internets, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the baywords.org, we shall fight on the /. and on the digg, we shall fight in the courts;
    we shall never surrender, and if, which I do not for a moment believe, the Internets or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the Anon Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in Cerf's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.
    TPB Crew, for now and until when needed.

    Ive been illeagally downloading music, movies, tv shows, copyrighted photos since 2000, and people have consistently failed to stop or catch me.

    Ive said it for years, the only way you can stop these people and sites like Pirate Bay and Google from giving links to illeagal content, is to ban all computer worldwide and all internet connections not just the companys

    REMEMBER ALL THESE USE FULL THINGS FOR GETTING ILLEAGAL CONTENT ARE STILL LEAGAL

    - Blank Media CD, DVD, Blu-Ray etc
    - Recording Equipment
    - Computers
    - Google
    - Internet

    - TDK, Maxell
