  1. Re:Seriously? on Slovak Police Planted Explosives On Air Travelers · · Score: 1

    There are also a hwhole lot more people working to prevent it. Taken together we have more people trying to stop it, but more things happening anyway (you admit there are more attacks than before) and you have the logical conclusion that if we still had the same amount of people working to stop it now as we did before then there would be more attacks now than there already are.

    nice how you exclude iran and north korea etc.

    Ironically thats what Vista did to. It was a large leap forward in many ways, but its biggest problems came from lack of backwards comparability. People know you cant have much progress when you remain backward compatible, but at the same time they demand it to still work.

    I was going to comment about America's Army too, but you beat me to the punch.
    IMO AA 2 was far better than its sequal. They really botched everything and shoved it down the tubes. It used to be really fun but now its just a buggy, laggy mess. I would gladly buy an updated commercial game based on what AA was 4 years ago and flush what they have now.

  8. Re:Charities? on Charities Upset Over Chase Facebook Contest · · Score: 1

    That is bull and you know it. There are loads of assistance programs for young/single mothers. I had to take the bus a few months ago (car broke down) and the top of the walls inside were literally plastered with posters and advertisements. Every other one had information for single moms on how to get help, in English and Spanish. Its easier to find if you open your eyes though. With how many public assistance/charity/welfare programs there are in the US, there is no reason for someone not to find help if they try even a little. Although often its easier to wallow in the mire and say poor me.

    How do you boycott an election or a donation by a third party? Unless you are going to boycott Chase itself then that makes no sense. I really doubt many who already have Chase accounts are going to care enough to refinance everything to avoid them.

    I had the same thought. Idk what view the SSDP and MPP have (although probably opposite of mine) and I support the anti-abortion groups, but I can hardly find fault for removing them from a list of charities.

    Dell and HP netbooks suck. They put the right/left mouse buttons beside the touchpad instead of below it. Makes it a lot more uncomfortable.

    If you go to the Search page in the settings you can allow or disallow creation of a public index and remove yourself from the internal index. Once again, its easier to complain about it then actually figure out how to use it.

    Not really. If you do post something as everything it has a popup telling you very clearly that it will be visible to the entire internet. The people complaining about it here are just idiots poking their nose where it isnt needed/wanted.

    I seriously would not be surprised if the vast majority of these emails were stuff like "hey, wanna go to arby's/mcdonalds/taco bell for lunch", "incre4se y0ur manh00d", or "Dear sir, I am the prime minister of Nigeria".

    Including them does allow inflating the numbers though, 22 million missing emails sounds ominous.

    If they had to use the needle in the first place then they are in a situation where they are already going to die. Its not important how many die as a result of using it, its about how many survive thanks to it.

    its like the stimpaks back in StarCraft. Sure you might die after using it, but if you do its not because you used it, its because you got shot. However if you do use it then your chance of surviving, even though you were shot, increase.

    Europe has low crime? Where in the world are you pulling that from?
    Britan is widely held to be the highest crime rate in the western world, and the rest of Europe isnt that much better.
