Not all religions recognize the difference between socially sanctioned killing and murder. Some groups have dissent within the group as to the nature of their doctrines, for example Buddhists must abstain from the "destruction of life", not merely murder. This is also extended, by many sects, groups, ecclesia [sp?] within Buddhism to include all animal life.
Jains never take life, human or animal.
Many esoteric/gnostic/mystic groups also abhor the practice.
It is getting harder and harder to find standard built pcs with ps/2; however, I always make sure I get one. No mushy rubber dome with fading sticky keys and too many buttons can ever replace my mid 80's model m space saver.
And in regards to the above comment about USB not caring what you plug into it, many ps/2 to usb adaptors simply don't work. USB can be especially picky with some hardware requiring an actual ps/2 to usb signal converter, which, funny enough, usually look exactly the same as the non-working adapters.
During a speech he once gave, someone in the audience asked Arthur C. Clarke when the space elevator would become a reality.
"Clarke answered, 'Probably about 50 years after everybody quits laughing,'" related Pearson. "He's got a point. Once you stop dismissing something as unattainable, then you start working on its development. This is exciting!"
Just because the person at the top has somehow convinced themselves that they believe in it, does not make it any less a scam, though. People can convince themselves of the most absurd things.
Never used fillable forms? Acrobat's ability to change and manage the form data and the advanced editing features are a godsend, especially working with locked government pdf forms that are not set up properly at all.
Yes I've read many westerns, and I agree with these sentiments; they were uttered by Arther C. Clarke himself...so if you can't stand my pathetic nod to the tired liberal talking point about "Cowboy Diplomacy", then you are wasting your time reading about the magnificent life and oeuvre of Clarke.
Plus I'd rather be counted among the spineless appeasement mongers, among whom you in your ignorance have included Clarke in what should be his tribute...
You can keep the Louis L'Amours...I enjoyed reading him when I was 12; Clarke's work, though, is like the phoenix.

So basically, it is supposed to be easier to use, but is incompatible with gentoo? Sounds useful...
what's funny about this?
This just in...leisure reduces stress!
Who is your "higher authority", Mars or Thor?

That, and saying "Nuke'em til they glow, then shoot-em in the dark", that's pretty whacky AND extreme

How in the world could this comment have been modded down? Too bad I'm out of mod points atm.

Maybe experiencing and existential crisis after finding out there is no thing as free software...
At least my ME still works

If more world leaders would read sci-fi than westerns...
Such a terrible loss of someone who added untold delight to my childhood
Nice, this comment gets a +5 insightful; however, anything said against the military or current regime gets -1 Troll or Offtopic.
Is there a way to register as a suppresive person? I'd like to not have to ever have dealings with any of these people.
