    The capabilities that were lost? Oh I know. Will, Balls, and the ability for people to stand up to pussies and call them out. When you push the envelope people will die. Move on and move forward so that the lives lost will not be a waste. If Apollo 1 had happened today we would have never made it to the moon.

    The problem with the Environmentalists is not that they want clean air and water. Which for the most part we have thanks to them now. It is that once we get these things it is never enough. To them the water will never be clean enough. It dose not matter to them that it will cost California millions of jobs to pass a regulation that will clean the air a negligible amount. The need for which was "proven" by a statistician who faked their PHD. Yet CARB will push the regulations through anyway. Because more is better. Right?

    Name a source of information that dose not have errors. The truth is that for a very large amount of information Wikipedia is just as valid as the Encyclopedia Britannica. Some types of information on Wikipedia though is more apt to vandalism than others. The fact is that a person needs to use their head when using Wikipedia. A quick check of the discussion tab of an article will tell you real fast if there may be problems with the information presented. This is a very useful tool that traditional forms do not give you.

    Do not care what they do with IP laws over there. The problem with China is that they do not have an environment that fosters creativity and risk taking. To come up with new ideas. Japan did have that. It makes all the difference in the world.

    It was offtopic. China dose not foster a climate in which innovation will thrive. Japan != China. What if I said "Google better watch out. A long time ago Mars had water!" WTF? One has nothing to do with the other. Just like Japans situation has nothing to do with Chinas.

    Probably the IP is hardened against any normal attack. My guess is they found a system that has an attack vector into the gmail system that is not as difficult as the mail servers themselves.

    Slight difference: public libraries buy the books they loan out. This particular sleazebag didn't buy anything in order to "earn" £18,000 a month. He deserved a hefty fine and at least a suspended sentence.

    Well. No one can point to a law that he broke soooo...

    He did not do anything to Earn a fine. Unless you are just pissed that a guy found out how to make shitloads of cash for very little effort. In fact from looking at your post it would seem that is is the fact that he made a lot of money for no effort that pissed you off. What a sad life you must live.

  16. Re:The problem: really dumb headline on Human Males Evolve At a Faster Pace Than Females · · Score: 1

    Although the article states that the rate of change in the other chromosomes is nearly equal. So. If the rate of change in the others is equal and the rate of change in the Y is greater and the Y only appears in males. Males are changing faster. Done.

    Rights are easy. It is always about the rights of the politicians in power to get more power. Every country is the same in that. The only difference is in how they approach their goals.

    First part of your post is 100% correct. Last part though... Come on. Do not be one of those people who blame society for the ills of an individual. Personal responsibility is a mantel that needs to be taken up by the world once again.

  21. Re:Males are not a population on Human Males Evolve At a Faster Pace Than Females · · Score: 5, Informative
    Maybe not. The article clearly states though that in this case the Y chromosome is evolving faster. That chromosome is only present in males. So. Males of the human species are evolving faster than the females at this time. These are very simple facts. Only made muddy and complicated by the fact that saying so sounds politically incorrect and as such can not be left alone as fact and must be downplayed.
