Ironic that the racists probably won't take comfort from the fact that while he still may be black (ish), he's clearly a fascist (you'd think that might alleviate a lot of their gripes).:p
it begs the question of why exactly our targets were chosen as such if not due to conspiracy
Not to mention, you've summed up only a mere ten percent or so of all the "inconvenient aspects" of the official version... but good luck reaching those with their heads stubbornly and desperately buried in the sand; their thoughts and beliefs on the subject (all having been well-vetted by the media for comfort-inducing consumption, of course) are profoundly resistant to common sense, the nature of cause and effect, physics/engineering knowledge... not to mention brutally-obvious lessons of history *cough* Reichstag fire *cough.
Jury nullification is the ultimate, unreviewable, unbreakable last defense of the citizens to protect their own against the power of the state.
It is not only the juror's right, but his duty, to find the verdict according to his own best understanding, judgment and conscience, though in direct opposition to the directions of the court. - John Adams
If a juror feels that the statute involved in any criminal offence is unfair, or that it infringes upon the defendant's natural god-given unalienable or constitutional rights, then it is his duty to affirm that the offending statute is really no law at all and that the violation of it is no crime at all, for no one is bound to obey an unjust law. - Chief Justice Harlan F. Stone
Jury nullification is our last defense against tyranny. When the legislative branch creates unjust laws, the judicial branch allows them to stand, and the executive branch enforces them, it is the juror's moral duty to refuse to convict. - Unknown
As long ago as the 70's, we were able to get as much as 1,000hp per liter of engine displacement through the use of pure toluene and five or more atmospheres of boost (Can Am); squeezung ungodly amounts of horsepower from small engines isn't anything new.
One (of many) reasons that the US military sucks up so much money is that our pilots train continuously.
I'd be awfully surprised to find out that pilot training consumes more than a small fraction of a percent of our defense budget but perhaps you know something I don't (I'm guessing not, however).
Tearing or no tearing [on a modern flatpanel] , there will be dropped frames - sending the framerate well below the monitor's 60hz refresh rate - unless the vidcard can sustain a high enough framerate with a common denominator of 60hz (say 120, 180 or 240fps)...
So to express a minority opinion (practicing Christian here), I think the Right Thing from a Christian point of view is to let the Satanists put up their monument and invite them over for a picnic.
This is organized religion we're talking about here; you keep your enlightened attitude out of it!:p
Why not instead give him something that he can control in a manner that's at least vaguely reminiscent of the way he would have used computers when he was working?
I couldn't agree more; my suggestion? An RCA videodisk player (hard to misplace the media due to failing eyesight) and a ham-radio, for sending communications electronically; good, solid easy-to-understand tech with minimal learning curve...
Gee, what officially has NOT been occuring for the past decade?? Here's a hint: the forums are full of shills who'll be glad to reassure you that it's not actually happening, regardless of what you think you see (so STFU and look back down at the ground).

We've seen this before; it's called false balance.
I see great hambeasts of North America roaming about everytime I go to Walmart. Largest in the world.
You should visit the Muskogee, Oklahoma Walmart - it's like WALL-E meets Deliverance...

Eating people is only wrong on two factors.
#3 it can lead to mutated-prion diseases?
We would also take apart old/broken TV sets that were awaiting disposal
And accidentally discovering how much energy a capacitor can hold is always the best part! :p
What's the over/under on child porn?
I thought the standard m.o. was a plane crash or suicide by double tap. :p
Motorsports used to be about... big engines

drive the price of junk food up
If the cars are all end up running on high-fructose corn syrup, we can just sweeten the junkfood with something derived from gasoline. :)

Mitsubishi Zeroes were made out of ALCOA aluminum.
And their tires were Goodyears.
Looking at those graphs, for those games, the current open source driver is running above the refresh rate of most monitors.
So while the catalyst driver may be faster, in some cases doubling the frame rate, I highly doubt you'd actually notice the difference.
Incorrect; it eliminates the need to run with vsync disabled and the subsequent screen tearing that causes...
If this was deemed viable and studios signed up there'd be no consensus on how to run it.
That should be the studios' fucking problem...
My 70 year old mother uses Facebook.
it... will be with us forever.
Like an Oldsmobile? :p
Does the Fourth Amendment mean nothing to ANYONE anymore?
I believe it means "annoying obstacle" in Fascist.
Fully Autonomous Flapping-wing MAV
WTF does its guidance have to do with its propulsion method...?! (Seriously, assholes [editors!]!)
Paper cups are okay, string is okay... but never the twain shall meet.
They just do not believe a country can allow a press that is not controlled by the government.
Apparently neither do we, considering our own intelligence services discretely took over mainstream media during the Civil Rights Movement (and the rest, as they say, is history [sic])...

with an average temperature of 7C
(Insert hick accent) Yeah, but what's that in degrees?
They, along with the word "are," apparently went the way of the dodo...
