Meat n00b.
It's actually not cured meat, but Falukorv.

But in all seriousness, I wouldn't just dick around with Jose... sure he blows a lot of hot air, but if he does sue you a court will not look favourably on your unauthorized access, whether you did anything wrong with it or not. There is a reason why people were moving to get out of 8bc, and it was because Jose was becoming unstable and liable to throw an almighty legal hissy fit.

As e.s.c. pointed out, I'm from Sweden. I don't think anyone is untouchable just because they're out of jurisdiction, but I do think he'd have to come up with something more extraordinary in order to prosecute over the borders. I take my chances and I think I'm pretty safe. I think the only real risk I would be facing if the case actually goes through is to be a registered criminal in USA and possibly be denied entry if I were to travel there.

Perhaps because shit here doesn't get erased by a tyrannical administrator.

Yes, but the wikipedia article informs it's salted and smoked. Is this not curing? So Falukorv, bacon, ham, summer sausage, etc. are all cured meats. And I must be a meat noob, because I asked you earlier if it was Canadian Bacon. hahahaha!

It's ironic that Jose Torres is threatening legal action on someone.

Recently many people were threatening to take him to court because he was taking peoples' money with no intent of ever sending them the cartridges they ordered.

I love chipmusic, but the scene, well.. no comment.

too much trolling in 8bc. everything there boils down to retarded comments eventually. in any case I think this whole situation is between nitro and jose. eventually we need to stop the shitstorm and let them do their thing (if something legal does come about) on their own.
