He's not a criminal any more, he's a member of society just like the rest of us.
Mr. Painter seems to be...painting...anyone who has ever committed a crime as a lifelong criminal. Good work rejecting the entire philosophical foundation of our criminal justice system, dipshit.
Clearly this post was a total karma whore. The Camino nightly has been 2k for at least the past two nights...i.e. the build didn't work and there is nothing to download at that link.
So I can only assume that you are posting that link even though you aren't actually using a nightly Camino build, and so therefore you are a karma whore
1) while possibly correct legally, it lacks moral rationale. it is saying we have the right to attack Saddam without saying that we really ought to 2) I admit I am mostly uninformed, but my impression was that 1441 basically said "this is your last chance - disarm". there was no resolution after that saying that he had still refused to disarm. no you may argue that it's obvious that he hadn't, but... 3) the real problem with any of this is you are still taking the authority of the UN into your own hands. I read through your argument and it made basic sense, but something still didn't seem right, and I believe the problem is this: you are trying to justify an action by our country as being approved by a "higher" body. and yet, if it really was approved, then it wouldn't've been a problem to get a final resolution authorizing force against Iraq now, in 2003.
the fact that we weren't able to basically says that the UN did not believe Iraq should be attacked. regardless of the lawyeresque justification you can make based on syllogisms from previous resolutions, it is clear that hardly anyone else in the world accepted this justification. it is in accordance with the letter but not the spirit of the law.
Honestly I think the poster you responded to had the correct analogy. We are engaging in vigilante "justice" right now. If the UN says "Iraq must do such and such" then it is the UN that must decide when Iraq has failed to do such and such and call for action. Clearly they did in 1991. Clearly they have not in 2003.
Legalese aside, this attack is not justified under international law as I think any rational person should understand it.
Consider also that programmers are using higher-level languages now than 10 or 20 years ago. Consider also that Windows is being sold to many more people now than it was 10 or 20 years ago.
Better products for less, or just better profit margins?
You can say Gore did the Win by a Hair, Lose by a Landslide, but in the end he still won the national popular vote, so that can't have been completely true.
Don't those 52X ones have multiple read heads so they don't actually have to spin that fast?
also you can always just put more data on the disk. I mean maybe you could never read a 100GB disk faster than 52X, but thats still like 100GB of data read in a minute or two
Eat a Bacon Egg and Cheese Biscuit w/o the biscuit? I can't drink OJ or cranberry juice anymore? No more sandwiches? No more pumpernickel bread w/ dill dip? No more potato or french fries w/ dinner?
This diet doesn't sound like fun at all. Big hunking chunks of fat aren't the only thing I'm interested in eating.
Yeah, real smart. Now what happens when everyone gets a car made out of this stuff? And you hit another car head on?
Well you aren't both gonna go straight though each other with no problem. So if the material is unbreakable you're going to just smash into each other and bounce off.
I hope you have fun when your car goes from 80mph to -20mph in a 10th of a second.
If you aren't a complete dumbass, and you download the trailer, and watch it in QT, its quite easy to get full screen.
Just go to Edit->Enable Tracks, and turn off all tracks other than Video 1/Sound 1
I agree that all that extra crap is annoying, but its not as if its impossible to watch the thing with true full screen.
Also AFAIK Apple doesn't make these trailers, and they shouldn't be blamed because the LOTR people chose to put that crap on their movie. Most trailers on the Apple site do not have that stuff.
48% for both. though Gore had a few more votes in total, it was nothing like a 60/40 break. it would be theoretically possible to win w/ those numbers against you, but very unlikely in the real world

I don't see Republicans saying "let the people decide" about pornography on the internet, or abortion. They don't want to let the people of California decide that medical marijuana should be legal. They don't want to let the people of Oregon decide that assisted suicide should be legal.
This whole hands-off principle seems less like a principle and more like a bullshit ad-hoc excuse for doing nothing about a serious problem.
We are talking about poor countries making generic versions of medicine that sells for inflated monopoly prices. You are talking about multinational corporations being put out of business by evil socialists. That is a dictionary definition of far-fetched, you idiot.
Why don't you try to make an actual argument as to how letting poor countries give medicine to their citizens(who couldn't pay the inflated prices in the first place) steals money from huge pharm companies, rather than sitting around jerking yourself off with Randite nonsense.
These people aren't buying them in the first place. Do you seriously think anyone would lose any money by saving these poor people's lives?
This is one of the most despicable examples of capitalistic selfishness I have ever seen, because unlike most debates, where it is capitalists arguing against life and for profits, here they are arguing against life and just for some abstract economic morality. It shows the sheer insanity of Ayn Rand reading pyschopaths who care *nothing* for any fellow humans beings. It is absolutely sickening.
Slashdot Mirror
Actually it's less.
He says Timothy and Michael each do a third of the shifts, and the other 4 get the rest.
Therefore its 6 shifts/4 editors = Taco working about 8 hours per week.
Wonderful
You can't vote while serving time for a felony conviction. You can vote after that
Wrong

OK few problems with your linked post:
1) while possibly correct legally, it lacks moral rationale. it is saying we have the right to attack Saddam without saying that we really ought to
2) I admit I am mostly uninformed, but my impression was that 1441 basically said "this is your last chance - disarm". there was no resolution after that saying that he had still refused to disarm. no you may argue that it's obvious that he hadn't, but...

Sounds like your time is completely worthless
I seem to recall a foreign site months ago saying that Apple was discontinuing 15" iMacs, but what really happened was 15" LCD displays went away.
Maybe a similar translation error is occuring here?
MB/s ....sigh, is it even worth explaining the difference anymore?

And according to the RIAA statisticians, it actually is three.
Pro: NT 3.5 -> NT 4 -> Win 2000 -> .NET Server
Home Win 95 -> Win 98 -> Win ME -> WinXP
No, the naming does not make a bit of fucking sense.
You can say Gore did the Win by a Hair, Lose by a Landslide, but in the end he still won the national popular vote, so that can't have been completely true.
Dell is adopting Windows ME in crash testing. The new system is expected to "simulate" crashes up to 300% faster than Windows 98

My quicktime thinks this is full screen
Exactly what is your "completely different view" on what full screen should be, Mr. Wizz?

Kyoto is nothing more than another European inspired attempt at hobbling the United States and improving European competitive position.
So is that why the EU ratified the treaty now, long after it became abundantly clear that the US never will?

Apple's monitor is larger, nicer-looking, high-resolution, and cheaper. Why is this POS worth a news story?
