You mistake acts by regimes as being supported by Islam. In reality - Islam is the only religion to embrace all other religions and say "hey - as long as you reach God we don't care how", and Islam also gave women rights in 600 a.d. that they didn't get until 1800 a.d. in the "western" countries. I recommend "History of God" by Karin Armstrong, if you're at all interested in _knowing_ instead of accepting propaganda.

So far the United States has asked only nationals of 25 Muslim nations and North Korea to register with the US Immigration and Naturalization Services in an effort to curb terrorism

At first it was "Middle Easterners" (exclusive, of course, of Israeli men). Now it's South and Southeast Asian men, and North and East Africans...And for what? The program is not going to stop rogues from coming into the country - it will only punish men who are already in compliance with the laws, and continue the scapegoating of the wrong people.
Now you might be able to find more information yourself.
You mistake a regime for a religion. You might want to bash any countries you like - but to go and spread lies about Islam won't help you (or the US in general) anywhere.
Yes, I've both read the Quran and a lot about Islam - out of curiosity, and to be sure not to fall for common western myths.
The US considers any country capable of producing WMDs a threat, and has reserved the right to attack first to protect itself.
Sweden can, easily, make WMDs. Do you see the faulty logic here?
Please read the other thread with regards to my original post - I talk about more about Islam (of which you apparently know nothing) there.
The US is a lot more dangerous than North Korea or China.
(Regarding the topic of registration, if you look closely you'll find that I never write about things I cannot back up. I was not prepared for CNN removing the link to the article where I got this from, and it is nowhere to be found. If the cause for that was a respected journalist making things up, or pressure on CNN from somewhere, is up to you to decide. I'm still trying to find additional sources)
That one issue is however, only _one_ issue of many.
Islam is socialistic - Mohammed disliked the extreme capitalism amongst the arabs in that region and Islam has as a core belief that you should help others instead of accumulating wealth yourself.... that "socialism" as a word wasn't invented doesn't mean anything when looking at what Islam is about - something very few people in the West do before judging. How many people know that Islam gave women rights 600 b.c that they didn't get until 1800 b.c in Christian countries?
(I'm not Moslem, but I study subjects before pretending I know anything about them. I recommend Karin Armstrong's "History of God" as a source to what I wrote above).
The most interesting thing is that you tried to look it up, but didn't succeed. It's still true (you might try to use words like "illegal immigrant registration" etc when looking, but the fact is still that the US wanted Moslem men to register after 11/9). The source for that information was, if memory serves me correctly, Wolf at CNN.
The current Christian right wing regime in the US is more dangerous than the socialist Moslem regimes you hate so much. Have a look at that idiot Bush latest suggestion.. rewriting the constitution to forbid gay marriages.
Consider it proven (residue left behind as a layer in the soil etc - if you google you'll find quite a lot)
Recent theories suggest the whole solar system moving like a sinus curve up and down through a "cloud" of more-than-usual-objects in the galaxy, and thus every ~30M years or whatever it was there's an increased risk. Several of the almost-everything-killed things that has happened to the earth could be explained this way.
But Pilger reminds us that the genocide did not begin at 'Year Zero' with the Khmer Rouge, but with the secret and illegal American bombing five years earlier, which killed 600,000 people and was the catalyst Pol Pot was waiting for.
You seriously need to rethink your life. My comment was a sarcastic remark towards moderators, not you. You however need to check your sources before posting, and definitely before questioning someone who corrects you.
You're free to check my posting history if you still take your post above seriously.
How come courts can't recognize the simple fact that CSS _does not_ prevent bit-for-bit copies to be made? (In factories, it does prevent home burning since dvd recorders can't write the section where the key is stored).
Racism against anything non-american (and non-Israeli) is rising at an alarming rate in the US at the moment - and it's being fuelled actively by the current regime. Historically this makes sense, the problem is that the population aren't realising that they're being fed propaganda.
World War three will be between the right-wing Christians in the US and the socialist Moslems in Europe/Asia.
Agreed. I'm both a Mechanical Engineer and a Software Engineer, and I work as a consultant in embedded software development. The embedded sector is WAY ahead of "desktop programming" when it comes to strict requirements and processes, and yet not even that is close to being a true engineering discipline.
I've actually concluded myself that software development _can never_ become an engineering discipline, it's too creative a process for that. A software developer is more an artist than an engineer.
Their target framebuffer is most surely not larger than 480 pixels high. If they are reaching for full HDTV support, it _might_ be 720, but it's not likely.
Thus, the image is lying. It's not a framebuffer dump.

Agreed. In the choice between 42" plasma and a 110" projector/screen we went for the latter - same price.

Life expectancy for both products is however only 4-5 years, something I'm not sure all buyers know about
marginal amount
False - the amount has since the start been quite a lot, and the price war with the PS2 has made sure it still is. Best estimates; ~$80 or so, still.

I'm amazed that your factually wrong answers have been modded up, while the posts I made - including links to back them up - are still at 1.
Who are you paying off?
Oops, forgot to link
The CSS keys are in an area of the disc that cannot be written to by any DVD recorder. Only the DVD-pressing machines can create CSS-protected discs.
CSS is an encryption scheme (albeit very weak, complexity 2^16) and the keys are stored on a track that dvd-recorders can't burn.
Unless something very new has happened to DVDs since CSS was first broken the above is true, and contradicts what you just wrote.
How come courts can't recognize the simple fact that CSS _does not_ prevent bit-for-bit copies to be made? (In factories, it does prevent home burning since dvd recorders can't write the section where the key is stored).
CSS real purpose is to enforce region encoding.

.. the same problem applied to the 60GXP and the earliest 120GXP drives (a friend just had his 120GXP click to death the other week) aswell.
The problem can be solved with a software upgrade in the drive.

We can actually use "their", "there" and "they're" correctly which means our English skills surpass those of most US citizens ...

Yes, I have a P800 and I run Opera on it, of course.
