If you want to link me to an article that has numerous warnings and notices about lack of citations, need of cleanup, lacking neutrality, and unverified claims about a sect of Islam that hardly represents a majority and then insult my literacy, you should probably consider the absurdity and refrain from clicking submit next time.

Show me where Muhammed preached loving thy neighbor- including those who aren't of your own faith and I'll support your statement. Last I checked, my Bible didn't say to wage jihad against the infidels.
I can assure you that "Christians" who bomb abortion clinics and picket actors'/soldiers' deaths because of whatever sexual orientation they might be- are hardly Christians at all. While mainstream Christianity disagrees with the issues behind those things, the isolated reactions by a fanatical few are totally uncalled for and vile. Jesus didn't put to death the woman who was caught in adultery- he reviled her accusers (who had committed a greater sin) and told told the woman to go and sin no more. I, however, take great offense at Christianity being likened to Islam.
Thats great.. lesson learned: You can bash Microsoft's newest OS, but the second you touch upon an aging and decrepit platform from Apple- -1 Flamebait.
From what I hear, Pearl Harbor defines your generation just as much as 9/11 did ours. 9/11 "defining" our nation wasn't just one day, rather igniting almost 7 years of war on terrorism (whereas WW2, while on a much grander scale) lasted 4 years post-Pearl Harbor). Let me do the defining of me.
Ok Ok, Yeah I know what you mean. I'm not about letting anyone do anything they want- that's not liberty, thats license. I simply suggest that government has its hand in way too many things. "More Liberty Means Less Government: Our Founders Knew That Well" by Walter Williams is a great book that really serves as a foundation for some of my thoughts. But anyways.. individualism is a rampant evil thanks to the internet, so I won't talk any more about whatI think... Good thoughts Dr. Gonzo
Yeah.. and that's the catch. However instead of making arrangements for those irresponsible parents work on some way to make them responsible. I know I'm dealing with the theoretical here but still...
I suggest its not the federal government's responsibility to raise the kids. I'm all about libertarianism. At the very highest, the community should chip in and help, either by after school programs, parental training, etc. Instead of making exceptions for everyone, we should be making strides to equip the parents to fulfill their duties as parents.
I totally agree. Computer utilization should be monitored by the parents but, -get this- while they are on the computer. I wouldn't (as in I don't have kids yet, but can understand that contemporary "parenting" will not cut it with me) want my kids exposed to the sick stuff on the net while I selfishly neglect them to further my own pursuits.
The TV was the 90s babysitter. Myspace is this decade's. You can call it censoring the internet on their behalf and impinging on their freedoms- I don't really care. They're your children- you have a responsibility to raise them and protect them. Tell your kids to get off the computer, get some excercise, and socialize in a correct way with kids that you approve of.
Actually, no. Like I posted previously, he rejected Catholicism while a boy. That being said, A) do you really think he held to those beliefs knowing what he did, and B) one case in a billion is hardly an argument against what I said
In a way I think it reflects the idea of a higher authority that they are accountable for. A catholic isn't going to commit genocide because he/she knows that there will be a reckoning one day.
That's not to say that atheists are going to start another holocaust, but its all a matter of subconscious public perception.
The only difference is that it seems you're talking server/workstation-type drives where heat and compact-ness are less of an issue. I've personally had the joy of replacing a laptop hard drive in both my brother's inspiron 6000, my girlfriend's 8000, and a friend's 6000. Granted, one of them I got to work again after I found a program by Steve Gibson (no plugs here, sorry) for hard drive recovery. One of the others has something broken inside (i can hear something bouncing around inside) and in the last one (my favorite) the head took a nose dive into the platter, causing a brain-numbing and eyeball-shaking screech. All died because of heat issues, I assume, but with the amazing amounts of storage now and the ever-decreasing square inchage to put it on, something is bound to give sooner or later or sooner.
Sadly.. its not quite that simple. In terms of power savings, not only is 24-guage wire extremely restrictive on the flow of electrons, but it would layer that power on top of the signal in PoE type 1- or put the power on the 2 unused pairs in type 2. I think I remember reading somewhere that loses are about 40% (15 to 9 amps) per run of cable. Not running at operational power also will decrease the life of the equipment.
Any sort of power savings (or losses) would be negligible. Ethernet also doesn't use a signaling scheme where 1's are 5v and 0's are 0v. Lastly- this type of power consumption is something that we're going to have to put up with- just like that $4 cup of coffee every morning on the way to work.
I just know I wouldn't want to be the fifth tourist in space... I mean, thats akin to being the fifth scientist to attempt building an atomic bomb at home. Granted, its been done before by professionals.. but still... its an expensive way to possibly die. Giving all your money to a college student and killing one's self is a lot more beneficial.
Slashdot Mirror
Now I know that chatroulette is already irrelevant, but doesn't this nix 99% of its userbase?
So now they're getting the ISP's to do their dirty work? Thats pretty low, even for anti-piracy organizations.
You're leaving out the "-that-no-one-cares-to-watch" on the end of the "make-a-home-video"
Except that you don't pay for SP1. Vista can be gotten on Newegg for around $100 (for Home Premium) to begin with.

I do not disagree with you. American Christians could do a better job.

I'm glad someone caught it

I'd pay a lot of money to be able to catch it here on earth

It might even be the new mini-notebook people have been talking about.. It makes sense

Ok, to that I concede. It was hardly "godly" in nature, as killing Anabaptists and gypsies isn't quite mentioned in the Bible...
How about a Mormon? Like...
Actually, no. Like I posted previously, he rejected Catholicism while a boy. That being said, A) do you really think he held to those beliefs knowing what he did, and B) one case in a billion is hardly an argument against what I said
Did you just skim over this hoping for a mod up by spamming wiki? "but as a school boy he rejected Catholicism"

is three and a half times less likely to fail when compared with HDDs currently available for the Latitude
Ok... now seriously, how reliable are the normal hard drives to begin with? 2 days x 3.5 = a week. yay!
Good catch- meant to say watts. Fact checking shows 400 mA
