Conspiracy theory thread

[Akatosh]

Your main point is based on a lot of speculation and a couple of Dan Brown novels.

And a book by Michael Moore! Don't forget Micheal Moore 

And your parade got caught in a back-up, sorry

[lo_res_man]

Michael Moore is an american, he MUST be evil! skipjack is an american sub, the first "true" nuclear sub, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Skipjack_(SSN-585)
it was also a code, as Akatosh said. http://www.cs.technion.ac.il/~biham/Reports/SkipJack/note1.html

Google is indeed handy. Look what I found lurking in an unencrypted NSA databank.

"Re: Project Akatosh

The AGS website has gone live. Over 3000 bots have been created to ensure a ongoing facade of random user input. Subject suspects nothing."

[Akatosh]

As long as the Yahtzee and "Herculean Effort Productions" bots keep releasing games I'm happy 

Although, a more active Pumaman bot would have been nice...

[Fabiano]

Sorry, Bot Pumaman is currently busy creating ags 3.0, expected time, 2.6827x10^23 months

I dont know, but I really dont care if THEY are watching me, or taking notes of my travels, or if they find my wife beautiful. I use windows. I use Google. And I dont care. Im happy this way.

sorry for the unuseful post. I was only thinking about the pumaman joke.

[lo_res_man]

I'm a dos man meself, though I do use windows. There is somthing nice and simplistic in an ye ol' dos prompt.

Go *nix-way then. You can always kill X (graphical environment) there. Or just Ctrl-Alt-F1 from them.

This thread reminds me of Dale from King of the Hill.

The conspiracy - as you say, does not exist, because I'm at my home, there's no van filled with surveillance equipment infront of my house and no one has ever taken me to questioning.

Why should "they"? Well, If I kept diary of my web surfing, it would go something like this:

January 3rd
wikipedia search for Cyclotrimethylene Trinitramine
wiki search for C4
wiki search for explosives
google search for explosives
google search for anarchist's cookbook
wiki search for SCUD missile
wiki search for ebola virus
google search for phreaking
howstuffworks.com for how radio works
wiki for detonators...

(I played Jagged Alliance 2 this day and started wondering how to make C4 more stable which led to full research on remote detonators, bomb belts and so on...)

...and etc, from islam to nukes to urban warfare to hitler to green card lottery to FSB to cruise missiles to future warrior project to KKK to--

I guess it would look quite weird for an agent of mentioned "conspirative" agency...
But I have strong interest in modern weapons, power and history. And play (quite political) warfare games, especially modern RTS's. Sounds like perfect seed for young "danger to democractic world".

See, this is how it starts. Someone, a depressed kid gets interested in bombs and stuff. To open up in some random forum seeking for acceptance from random people. When he notices no-one really cares, he does as he has planned: He goes to a big mall with a backbag full of homemade C4, enters the most crowded area, leaves the bomb ticking and tries to run. But at that very moment something goes horribly wrong, he realises there's no point in killing people, and tries to stop it. But what happens is he breaks it, and the bomb goes off all over his face, killing hundreds of innocent bystanders... Had to say, sorry for the offtopic, but just shows they prolly should keep spying on us.

[Akatosh]

Qui custodiet ipsos custodient? There should be another way to solve that problem than fighting the symptoms of a society which depresses kids and gets them interested in bombs and stuff. And if that's making up a fake forum with 300 bots 

/EDIT: Geez, I hate Latin 

/EDIT: Wait, 'custodere' or whatever the infinitive of that word was is written with 'c', not 'q'

CONSPIRACY THEORYS are EVERY WHERE.
There is no cheap fuel because the oil companys assasinate anyone who opposes them. The ways of their thoughts are<<<"MAKE MONEY, DIE RICH">>>

How old are you?

the reason you can't get cheap fuel is because it is all being used, so demand is high meaning that the cost must increase to be able to make some sort of profit. Although the oil companies are dodgy, I'm quite sure that they don't want to end up with less money than they began with, so therefore oil prices MUST increase.
It's shit luck,  I know, but you've got to live with it.

Which is why I don't plan to own a car 

[EldKatt]

I didn't see any conclusion or even a theory of some sort (an important requirement for a conspiracy theory in my mind) in the original post. Unless it's basically "internet communication is not completely secure", which nobody would really disagree with. So... I guess I'm a bit curious as to the point of what you're talking about.

[Akatosh]

I already explained that... there simply is no point. That's it. But did you know Google is thinking about anonymising the data they stored about you after something like 18 to 24 months? Big whoopedy freaking doo. If I'm trying to make a point, it's highly likely to be "I don't like Google.".

[Raggit]

I just don't think I could ever stop using Google, no matter what.  It's like my best  friend.  It's always there when I need it.  It listens to everything I tell it.  It even corrects my spelling mistakes. 

I... I love you Google.

Economics is not your friend, more like a misunderstood casual acquaintance.
