And sorry, but it's politics again...

A friend of mine posted this image:



And I was struck by it because to me, the Empire and the death star was always a right wing symbol, and a very left wing symbol superimposed on it made me laugh...

But the person who posted it seemed to think that the Empire and the Death Star embodied liberalism.

So I'm going to put this to the vote, to see what others think:

[Poll #1292525]

Have at it!

Oh, and I might have to make this image into an icon... It's way too amusing not to!

This has to be one of the funniest :D

Also, Blizzard entertainment puts spyware on machines to prevent cheating?

Hmmm, I'm not convinced they're not going to do anything with the information. Why gather so much if you're not going to use it?

David Blunkett, once such a rising star, now can't stop messing up... more scandals than you can shake a big stick at...

And a staunch conservative in the supreme court. So has Dumbya gone for the safe option?

Gmail

The dispute between Google and Independent International Investment Research
(IIIR) centres on who owns the Gmail trademark.

The London-based research firm, with a £3.24m ($5.6m) stockmarket value, says
it has used the name "Gmail" since 2002 to describe the mail function of its
online information tool Pronet, mainly used by investors in currency
derivatives.

Companies like Citigroup, Deutsche Bank and Bank of America are among the
British firm's clients.

After Google announced its Gmail plans in spring 2004, IIIR rushed to
register the Gmail trademark with Ohim, the European Union's trademark office,
and the US Patent and Trademark Office.


Why would an application WITH NO G's IN ITS NAME have a mail app called gmail? and where's the G in IIIR? They just want the cash if you ask me... and Google's calling their bluff.
