@nrlucre so, do you know how to record Skype calls now? I guess I could potentially use Skype Call Recorder on Wendy's Windows machine but I haven't ever gotten that to work on Linux -

Anybody local got a laser? I need to cut something. I think it needs to be more delicate than a saw. -

@nrlucre apparently the guy that sent us an email has a Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronaldo_Lemos -

why does the Linux Mint version of rhythmbox not have the Jamendo plugin? -

@inscius but none of the losses were sweeping, more like "try again". -

@inscius military rules still must be constitutional. Bush's war on terror went to supreme court 4 times and "lost" every time -

@inscius yes, but only for presidents. Many think senators should have cap too. -

well, after FDR there was a Constitutional amendment passed. It was just a gentlemen's agreement before then. -

@inscius well, he didn't do anything unconstitutional. Frankly, it's amazing no one tried it in nearly a century and a half -

@inscius of course, Congress has always had the constitutional power to suspend the writ of habeus corpus...which essentially means martial law -

@inscius wickard & korematsu. Actually, I think korematsu may have been after FDR passed, but internment was started during FDR. Ironically, korematsu laid the foundation for Brown and all of the civil rights cases. However, the threat of martial law still technically lingers. -

@snapl yeah, I said it was bizarre. You'll have to talk to @edythemighty @frankenspock @tmray and others that left during what I call "the great XMPP purge" for more details -

@inscius it is true that two of the worst SCOTUS decisions still standing were under his "watch" though, FWIW. -

@inscius of course, those people also worship guns and despise education and healthcare, so I personally think you should take their opinion with at least a grain of salt. -
DJ Dougernaut (douglasawh)'s status on Thursday, 09-Aug-2012 16:57:10 EDT DJ Dougernaut
@inscius when FDR stopped the practice of limiting oneself to two terms, at that point I could see comparisons. That was fixed by constitutional amendment...though plenty of people don't think we have recovered from FDR. -

@inscius that series is great. I think the comparisons to the US might be exaggerated for two reasons: 1) federalism 2) international law. -

@snapl identi.ca failed in its "fight" with G+ as far as I can tell. Bizarrely, the reason appears to relate to four letters: XMPP
