Don't like my medical advice? Fine, go somewhere else. Seems perfectly reasonable and rational. If I were these doctors, I wouldn't want to feel responsible for the health of a child whose parents were demonstrably not interested in keeping their child healthy.
I agree. In addition, when their families are sitting in my waiting room, their non-vaccinated brood are spread infectious diseases to vulnerable patients - those too infirm or too young to be vaccinated.
Why should I permit the vulnerable patients to be exposed to vaccine-preventable diseases? Am I not responsible for their care even more than I am for those who prefer to ignore my advice?
Y'know, maybe you Americans should get a "freedom of speech" amendment to your Constitution. That would stop these attacks on civil liberty right quick.
I have it on very good authority that Atlantis is not in Spain.
It's in Florida, assigned to Launch on Need Mission STS-335. Hopefully it never is needed, but instead goes directly to the National Museum of the United States Air Force.
Based on Rob's reporting history with companies like the SCO Group, Novell, IBM and Microsoft, I've long ago concluded he inhabits his own little fictional world.
This report is quoting quite heavily from Rob the Delusional. If he says Google is going, they're probably staying.
We seem to be looking at this the wrong way, from the POV of the end user rather than the programmer. The programmer is making the decision, the decision should lean towards ensuring the website is W3C compliant.
If IE can't handle the W3C compliant website, then that's IE's W3C compliancy problem. Opera, Konqueror, Firefox, Epiphany should all be able to handle it just fine.
Though there are multiple methods to remove that message, this is by far the most effective.
Actually, it's the SECOND most effective method. The most effective, of course is installing [insert your fave Linux or BSD distribution here - yes that includes OS X].
(I may think M$ Windows is evil, but I do know you can shut off the stupid warning that it can't detect if an antivirus product is being used.)
Because they have. You said it yourself, right there.
But he hasn't said that. "Pedophile" doesn't mean that you HAVE sexually abused children, it means you find children sexually attractive. If you have an urge to do something that is against the law but don't act on your urges, does that make you a criminal?
What about other urges? The urge to just take that expensive vase, or claim that ineligible item on your expense report? Does having the urge make you a criminal, or does acting on it?
The captain was under too much pressure to make this the fastest crossing. Ballocks.
The Blue Riband was awarded to the fastest ship on the North Atlantic run.
Titanic had a design speed of 21 knots and a flank (emergency) speed of 23.5 knots. By contrast, the Blue Riband holder of the day, Cunard's Mauretania, had a design speed of 26 knots. Titanic hadn't a prayer of capturing the Blue Riband.
They WERE travelling far too fast for the conditions, but then the attitude of the day was "when in ice, crack on the speed until you are out of it". At the time there was no appreciation of just how much harder iceberg ice was from your regular seasonal frozen-river ice.
This time isn't just a fine: it's exclusion from a vitally important marketplace, the one for European government software (at least, that funded by the EU). That will have a trickle-down effect on other European governments and on companies doing business with them, from construction firms to suppliers of pens and pencils. They all have to trade documents with the EU, electronically...

This is how - jailing atheists and closing Christian churches.

Why wasn't Slashdot's Microsoft icon completely scrapped with the re-design?
That thing looks so incredibly dated and anachronistic...(snip)
Sort of like Microsoft...

No, Rob Enderle is the Enderle Group.

I had a car that could split in two. The mechanism by which it did this feat was called "rust".
People don't like futuristic looking stuff. If they did, we'd all be wearing white or silver jumpsuits.
you wear clothes?
How quaint.
:P

You don't like Being Erica? What's wrong with you? :-P
Sanity. The CRTC is working on a cure as we speak, by driving me crazy.
"The CRTC ... (a)re not complete morons."
Objection, your honour: lack of supporting evidence.
Do we really need to clone MORE politicians?

All OSes, that I'm aware of, have DRM.
AFAIK, no Linux or BSD system comes with DRM. Their licenses don't need it, and their users wouldn't stand for it.
It's only proprietary OSes, whose owners need to have the licensees pay and pay and pay, that have DRM.

The triple dip, Brilliant.
Microsoft is full of dips...Name one thing that the "anti-OOXML" side has done that is a "very bad thing".
Before you decide to do so, I'd point out that identifying flaws in the proposed standard is NOT a Very Bad Thing, it's the RESPONSIBLE thing.
That's a lot of sarcasm!!! ^_^
It's actually Japanese for "Harbor Wave"
Morgan Freeman?
Portals on a Plane!!
This was a triumph!
I'm making a note here:
"HUGE SUCCESS!!"
Canada has one (1) strict regime prison - for the military, for crimes committed by military servicemen considered "salvageable".
Other than that, no, not really.
