All the liberals I know (including myself) who were against Bush doing it are also against Obama doing it. We support Obama on other things, and just have no alternative to him on that since both major parties strongly support it.
I'm too lazy to pop in any DVDs or download any binary blobs, which is a major reason I prefer linux. I can't remember the last time I wanted something that wasn't in the repositories.
Other work can be a distraction too -- new work emails come in and distract you from your current task onto new tasks, and although all these tasks are work you end up juggling too many things and can't concentrate to get any of them done, and quickly stop working at all. Of course the obvious answer is to close the email client, but software can offer a quicker way to preventing the use of a group of programs/websites for a specified period of concentration time.
The linux desktop has not been stuck at 1-3% at decades -- it was never above 1% until recently, and has grown steadily and rapidly over the last few years to reach the current ~1.2%.
Why not just send one person? You only have to take half the food, your tiny space is less cramped, and the mental pressures of being isolated can't be worse than those of being stuck in a tiny room with someone for two years.
Intelligence has evolved in various desperate species on Earth -- primates, birds, dolphins -- so it's reasonable to conclude that intelligence is a common eventual outcome of evolution. Opposable thumbs to build technology with, on the other hand, may be rare.
There's nothing tech-savvy about connecting to an open wireless network, and there are no other (free) ways a kid can connect from their phone in their bedroom.
It's more likely that Earth life originated on Earth, but it's also possible it originated on Mars, and that possibility is more exciting to people than the obvious answer so of course it gets talked up.
I use my $25 inkjet about once a year, and the ink can last a year. No need to get expensive. The ink may be expensive, but you can refill with cheap generic ink instead.
Any browser with a different rendering engine has to be tested against. If IE used webkit (or anything else that runs on linux), a lot of web developers like myself would have no incentive to ever buy another Windows license. Which is why it's not in Microsoft's interest to use webkit.
Distrowatch ranking has nothing to do with the number of people using a distribution, just the number curious about it. People have already heard of ubuntu for years.

Nobody has been able to drill 15km into Earth yet, so the technology to get that far into Europa is unfortunately far off.

Making people install drivers from CDs is not progress, it's masochism. Things need to just work.

There hasn't been ANY kind of caliphate since the 13th century
Off the top of my head, there's the Sokoto Caliphate until 1904.
I prefer Chrome's adblock to Firefox's. What's the problem?

If it weren't for the Montreal protocol, we could have global cooling.
Remind me how many people were living in large immobile extremely expensive cities within a few feet of sea level back then.

Strong evidence of marsquakes has already been observed. Doesn't come from soil samples though.
Would it be possible for DNA to have survived the radiation that shallow in the martian soil? I'm under the impression they'd need to dig deeper.
Simply bring back the law that only landowners can vote, and republicans will win everything. Danged poor and middle class people wanting rights.
Evil naturally rises to the top of an organization because it lusts for power and will do anything to get it.
You're not in trouble losing 2% of market share if the overall market size grew by 10%. Market share isn't everything.
The desired balance was between the living force (Qui-Gonesque) and the cosmic force (Yodaesque), not good and evil, sheesh.
Depends where you mean. There's tons of simple life deep below the surface of the Earth, so why not below Mars where it'd be protected from raduation?
There will never be a point to hoarding asteroids, since they're an essentially infinite resource.
