    It seems that you're unaware that it doesn't work with all sorts of software and funny hardware, those of us who have actually tried it are aware of it.

    caucasian, asian, and negro man are quite physiologically different,

    Where are from, the nineteenth century? The problems you personally experience are probably more a result of imbalanced gut flora from a life spent eating what sounds like a terrible diet. You'd probably find it would normalise quite quickly if you ate a decent diet. Good luck.

    The fact you believe that is may even make it true, however it is clearly absurd, there are millions of people eating a vegan diet and doing very well on it. I prefer a full balanced diet myself. If you were cooked a proper vegan diet and fed it every day you would be fine, you are not some special flower, your dietary requirements are the same as everyone else's.

    One reason for this that should be fairly obvious is that lots of recipes call for meat and as a lot of people on here have proven with their idiotic tales of "I turned vegetarian and my face melted because my diet was so unhealthy", finding good recipes and getting a healthy diet can be quite tricky at first. Also inour house if I am making something carnivorous for myself but vegetarian for my partner I can do everything the same except add quorn chicken or whatever, it's almost as efficient as doing one meal except double the dirty pans...

    Teaching jobs have been round for longer than virtually any other type of job besides soldiering and entertaining soldiers while prone. So you might want to reconsider your half witted comment.

    The funny thing about NIMBY's is everyone thinks someone else is one but when it comes to a nuclear power station next door or two hundred new houses in that patch of wood near their house they can self harmonise as they change their tune so quickly.

    Exactly, Dyson is a cheapskate hypocrite, bemoaning the lack of British talent while outsourcing manufacturing to China. I wrote and complained when I realised this after buying my last Dyson vacuum cleaner specifically to support UK manufacturing.

  23. Re:Kids are tablet crack-addicts now on How Can Nintendo Recover? · · Score: 1

    Nintendo always had games very well targeted to children

    Recently I decided to play Super Mario Galaxy (free time over christmas, thought kids would like it) and it was awesome, I know it's a fairly old game, but it was enjoyable in a way that so many games totally fail to be. The kids loved it as well for the bright colours and relatively simple themes. I don't see tablet gaming as being anywhere near on the same level of experience, most of them are horrendous limited unimaginative time sinks with a "pay to win" philosophy. I'd keep children away, many of them are actually horrible.
