brokenergy Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 As some may have heard, Wikipedia is shutting down it's servers for 24 hours in protest against SOPA and PIPA. I really don't have much a say in American politics but I thought it was interesting for our American Nexus members. http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/English_Wikipedia_anti-SOPA_blackout
CommanderCrazy Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 Yeah I heard about that one. Theres actually quite a few sites doing that too :\
ub3rman123 Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 Glad they're doing something about it to make themselves heard. I just can't shake the feeling that tomorrow I'll be assigned a bunch of research projects.
TheCalliton Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 why cant our government go along with the "land of the free" stuff and have LESS laws not MOREit always seems that other countries have more freedom that us over here. not all countries, obviously, but a lot of them do.
brokenergy Posted January 17, 2012 Author Posted January 17, 2012 How about the governments and companies get their heads together that the Internet is uncontrolable. They are just a bunch of hypocrites.
huntsman2310 Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Will never happen I'm afraid. They want to control the uncontrollable.
Haddacall Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Man that really bites, I wasn't aware they were shutting down! Don't pay that much attention to online chatter, usually don't have the time! And when I do have time, I'm generally trying to get as much playtime in as I can, the downside to being a long haul truck driver. Usually, I only go online to find a solution to a problem I'm having with a game, or to check out the mods being made for them. Anyway tried to get on the Wiki page today to get the item codes for a couple alchemy ingredients in Skyrim, that's generally the only thing I use the site for, it's quick and easy, and usually covers the whole gambit on whatever I may be looking for! I got a big government looking logo saying "this site blocked by US Goverment" with some other official looking crap, numbers and such, and started thinking what the hell! Glad to hear it's only temporary, inconveinent, but just the same I'm glad it ain't nothing permanent.....
Thor. Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) Yup its blocked the item codes :sad: , its a good thing its not permanent. Actaully I'm all for it infact. :smile: Go wiki.. http://elderscrolls....m_Codes_(Skyrim) If anyone has the skill to copy and paste less then a micro second and place them here would be a life saver :tongue: Edited January 18, 2012 by Thor.
Lutine Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Good thing my last project was due today. Great timing! :biggrin:
