And following your logic, perhaps the Nazis killed them for a reason, right? Yeah, it's called antisemitism and stupidity. It's found on both the far left and far right, both in great abundance.
Do a search for "yiff" or "yiffing" on a filtered computer or search engine. It'll glide ride past to some pretty amazing stuff. Also try going to rangarig.net on a filtered computer. You'll be stunned.
I believe the circumcision practice comes from ancient health reasons. Cleanliness was not godliness back in the days, and an dirty foreskin led to infection. In response, there were practices of circumcision, something that Judaism adopted along with kosher laws for similar reasons.
Now, thousands of years later, it's tradition, a link to the history of my people. Tradition is important. So yes, we had our son circumcised. Is it child abuse? He cried, fell asleep, and then woke up happy. Now he definitely likes his penis, a lot.
Are earrings child abuse? How about the lip and ear stretching and other body modifications done in various cultures? Traditional Mori tattooing of kids? Context is everything. These are loving acts.
In contrast, female circumcision, done to reduce female sexuality, is child abuse because of its context.
Theoretically... EPIC > RISC > CISC......but it doesn't matter much in the real world. The small theoretical speed advantages get lost in the noise of compiler quality, product cycles, bus speed, programmer skill, etc. Underneath, the execution units are similar, and any brilliant breakthrough in EPIC compiler tech will just be copied into the x86 instruction decoder of x86 chips.
So basically, x86 is here to stay for a LOOOOOOOONG time.
I'm not sure why a company would hire another's fab for making memory. Memory margins are usually slim and require massive economies of scale. I can see controllers being custom made, but again, that'd be rare for something as cheap as flash memory.
Yes, they use other companies' chips because they don't have a fab. Most companies don't have a fab. They buy from whomever is cheapest, manufacture it, and ship it. Sorry they had a bad batch and had poor customer service, but that's par for the course nowadays. Did you stop buying WD and Seagate drives because they had bad batches? They sure as hell did, as did every other manufacturer.
So I look at this post and see it as a hit piece. Why is slashdot even posting it?
Just because something is legal in the US does not make it some deep right. I have to raise my children to certain standards. That's the law. I can't treat them any way I choose.
I never said home schoolers are nuts. I said this family is, apparently. My wife and I both have teaching credentials, she teaches in public school, and I have a tutoring center. We have pondered home schooling. However, I'm always wary of untrained, inexperienced people home schooling. I'm ten-thousand more times wary when they home school for religious reasons.
Thank you! I think most home-school parents view their children more as property than people. The thought of their children getting their own ideas or ideas of others frightens the parents.
So I have a right to raise my children without science or math? I don't think so. We all have a responsibility to give our children certain standards of knowledge. To do otherwise is shameful. This family is shameful, as are the judge's actions.
This judge feels for the family, but it's a gross violation of the law. Homeschooling is in no way a human right. I'm all for immigration, but this family doesn't even come close to making the cut.
Make players wait in line to buy items in an MMORPG. Make those leveling up characters only capable of talking to one person at a time, and they get breaks, too. Require bathroom breaks or experience loss of social status as characters crap their pants. Require quarterly paperwork to file video game taxes.
China publicly harvests organs and people hardly notice. Israel is accused of harvesting organs, a total fabrication, and there's an outcry, demanding an investigation into these Zionist barbarians. What the hell?

Ha! How are you a troll?

If enough people are willing to donate, then the waits won't be as long for everyone, eliminating the unfairness.
If you're not a donor, you're a douche bag. Sign the card or whatever it is in your state. Let your loved ones know. You might save a life.
You still have to trim the kelp and de-barnacle the roof.
Yeah, but thanks to you, we won't get as many rants about how f-ed up the LHC is.

They must have fifty thousand ways to say that, considering how often it's said.

Essentially, your perspective is that you deny the existence of perspectives. WTF?
Blah, that's BS, Coward.
People are just modding me down because they disagree. I said what the majority of people on this site feel and know to be true.

Right. Show me on any widely accepted declaration of human rights where it says home schooling is a right.
This judge feels for the family, but it's a gross violation of the law. Homeschooling is in no way a human right. I'm all for immigration, but this family doesn't even come close to making the cut.
The tried. It's called Itanium. People want their x86.
Then nobody has to argue and everybody overeats.

This guy is an idiot.
Actually, Jewish law allows the breaking of laws to save any life, not just Jewish. http://www.jlaw.com/Commentary/whatcost.html
