    "I guess you hated the new Battlestar Galactica series too"

    Well I hated the new BSG-thought it was complete rubbish, quite an acheivement to be even worse than the first BSG.

    Yeh, we have recently seen how much Apple cares about its developers, with the recent stories of their payment system being months behind.

  4. Re:True Muslims must review, refine and rewrite QU on Al-Qaeda Used Basic Codes, Calling Cards, Hotmail · · Score: 1

    If you believe that, I have a bridge for sale.

    Many christians reject anyhting but the King James bible, which has NOT been "corrected".

    See the thing is fundementalists reject such rewrites, so it would make no difference at all, they would simply follow the old texts just as christians do.

    Simplistic solutions are a waste of time, it will take more than a bit of editing to solve the problems with fundemenatlist religion of ALL kinds.

    Silly suggestion.

  5. Re:Recruitment tool probably steps over the line on Seven Arrested After Protesting Army Video Game Recruiting Center · · Score: 1

    Nobody in their right mind who does not want to kill people joins the military.

    Dell Precision m60 m70 latitude x300, d510 d600 definately do have IRDA, most seem to.

    Unfortunately a lot of them are on the rear of the laptop, facing the wrong way for home theatre setups.

    I have a HP NC8230 that has it on the front as a home theatre machine, doesn"t charge battery but works great otherwise.

    Very quiet operation of laptop is good for Home Theatre too.

    Many many others. These are 2005 models.

    New LCD are not as expensive as they once were, try shopping around a bit, starting with ebay.

    no need to generalize soldiers as people who have very low moral standards. They simply generally aren't.

    No, of course not, they only kill people to order, often including civilians how could that possibly indicate low moral standards?

  21. Re:Huh. on South Park Creators Given Signed Photo of Saddam Hussein · · Score: 1

    There is NO reasonable form of execution.

    Civilized countries do not have the death penalty.

    The state should not be allowed to kill-under any circumstances.

    Huh?

    I have had CFL in all lights for the last 5 years.
    Only 1 replaced in that time and that because it was a harsh rather than soft white.

    You must have a wiring/socket issue if you are going thru them so fast.

    Not acceptable? Rubbish.

    Of the 250 machines I am responsible, not one has or needs 64 bit. The need is indeed very rare. In fact no one I know has a 64 bit machine, there is simply no need for most users.

    Now just calm down and have a nice little lie down, you will feel better.
