Atleast in Sweden blank normal votes aren't counted so making your own none of the above is fairly useless. However you can fill in whatever party you want regardless if it exists or not, Donald Duck votes are actually counted.
While a lot of what you say makes sense, driving an old car very little etc. However the second part of your post is bollocks.
1) The grid can be turned off and scaled to meet demand 2) Efficiency is measured in how much energy is lost, current petrol engines lose about 70% of the stored energy. 3) As per point 2, Oil has nothing whatsoever to do with efficient storage, the reason we use oil is because it's there, someone else(nature) stored it for us so we don't care that it's inefficient as fuck 4) We will run out of oil, nature creates it extremely slowly and we use it up rather quickly, people just argue about exactly when the oil will run out. 5) Better energy storage (batteries) is what everyone is working on, however efficient energy storage doesn't have to be an electric battery, if we for example could efficiently produce oil and efficiently use oil then that would be a good renewable process.
It's as easy as you think to break into an arbitrary windows machine. If it was then every machine on the planet would be a zombie and they're obviously not. Get rid of your tin foil hat.
Since you're modded insightful instead of funny I feel I must point out that the drake equation does account for the fact not all planets are habitable.
As I've understood the technology behind it these mice should be taking clearer pictures less often so it wouldn't suprise me if they'll outperform the laster mice on any surface within a few generations.
Personally I wouldn't buy these first generation mice either, they cost about twice what I'm willing to pay for a mouse and their intended market is notebook productivity while I only use a mouse for gaming/desktop use.
That's a rather good argument I think. Anyone that uses DRM should lose their copyright automatically since they've accepted the burden of defending it themselves.
That's rather irrelevant, if they want to pirate they will pirate because nothing can stop them. The point is that 40% of pirated games can't be lost sales because that kind of money doesn't exist.
3-40% of pirated copies is a silly number, where would that kind of money come from? All the pirates I know already spends alot of money on games/movies/music, they can't materialize money out of thin air to pay for the content they're currently pirating.
Swedish Taxes: Your employer pays 30% of your salary ontop as an employer fee Everyone pays 33% of their income to their kommun (you could call it the swedish version of a state, it's the local goverment that takes care of everything within an area such as school, healthcare etc) You pay 20% of everything you earn above 340 900kr(48,571 USD) to the state and an additional 5% for above 507,100(72,251 USD) then you pay 7% of your income to your pension fund but that is tax reductible.
So in total if you earn 100 units you pay the state 63, or 63/130 = 48,5% and that's if you're a low income earner. With a high income you can end up paying 83 units for 83/130 = 64%
So yes, the US still has significantly lower taxes then sweden : P

The constitution is flawed and even the original writers were aware of that which is the reason that there exist a process to amend it.
According to Wikipedia females couldn't get into the New Zealand parliment until 1919
Before you can allow all ages to vote you'd have to figure out how to make a newborn enable to understand the issues and work the voting machine.

And there is something on the order of a billion windows machines around.
Probably not more specific then the security bulletin which didn't mention any details at all(unless you happen to know what an RPC request is).
Would those people even read about this vulnerability to begin with?

windows file sharing has to my knowledge absolutely nothing to do with any P2P program.
If most developers would stop wanking off to the concept of "realistic" graphics they wouldn't be in that mess.
I could imagine some badass coop with portal with one person having a blue gun and the other person having the orange one.

You buy all your processors based on the Mhz number too I suppose?
Not everyone that visits that kind of forum is engaged in criminal activity. They can only arrest people they have proof against.

It's slightly ironic that that very ad in the beginning of DVD's is why a lot of people pirate. The pirates get their movies commercial free.

Because it has gone so well for the people that have tried resisting arrest with guns....

Well yes, if they took 2 more years to make a single 90 mission campaign it would cost them a lot of money.
For the about 5th time on this topic, the plan is for a 1 year gap between releases which renders your whole post meaningless.
