  1. Re:No Debugger? on Adobe Releases Preview of 64-bit Flash For Linux · · Score: 1

    Sarcasm is so very hard on the internet. I'm going to have to expand my routine.

    Or not use 64-bit...

    Sweet. I have two calculus books. One talks about antiderivatives, one doesn't. Since they both don't mention antiderivatives, then antiderivatives don't exist or at the very least I cannot trust anything said about antiderivatives.

    Who would have guessed Federline would even have a retirement account? But we all knew if anyone could fall for this it would be her... Oh wait, different Spears.

    That seems like a reasonable and fair compromise.

    There are still environmental regulations and such that need to be addressed. There is a certain level of training need for proper disposal. Rural areas might be safe from explosions but what happens when Timmy down the street starts flushing nasty stuff into the water table and contaminates everyone's wells?

    Of course the masses are distrustful, idiots can't even make meth without blowing up their houses. While the two attract different types of minds that doesn't make a mistake any less spectacular or dangerous to me if I'm in the next apartment, dorm, or townhouse.

  11. Re:Addiction on China Defines Internet Addiction · · Score: 1

    Medically, there could be serious degenerative disorders as a result of being fixated in one place for long periods of time, or perhaps dietary issues from eating and drinking the worst possible food in order to have more time online, but again that's all a bit of a stretch.
    It never seemed to bother my college roommate. He only really got up from DAOC for work. Since he worked at a pizza joint he could always bring back the worst possible food. He even slept on a pile of clothes in front of his computer.

  12. Re:Foot in the door on Beating the College Bubble · · Score: 1

    Unless companies start hiring people based on actual knowledge, not just looking at certification, then college still seems like a profitable formality.
    You are bordering on something I've seen around the net: Experience is more important than education. Ok true, but education isn't without value. I've seen some very intelligent, very skilled "experts" do some really stupid crap when they haven't been trained in the field they are actually doing work in even if they have been doing it for years.

    Fine. My cell has a crappy OS, but I don't think it will be better if I jam a second or third crappy OS onto it.

  15. Re:stirling engine is a no-go on Dean Kamen Combines Stirling Engine With Electric Car · · Score: 1

    It must be amazing to lived in a planned city. Here, going up a block might mean you could never get back to your intended route. Ok, a bit of an exageration but still it may mean a huge detour. Here, the city has grown to the existing roads and now it is too expensive to start demolishing and make things better. Actually it is hard enough to get money to fund the needed expansions to roads where there are room for expansion.

    I know you are new to politics so I thought I would let you know. Now that you have won, you can stop campaigning for about 3 years.

  19. Re:How ironic on Supreme Court To Rule On TV Censorship · · Score: 1

    Possibly, but Republicans and Fox news do well in my town which has an average level of education of a Master's degree. Apart from clan loyalty, Republicans at least tout the same general views of most people around here, and they don't call people idiots or bigots for not believing the way they do. Telling a bunch of highly educated people they don't know anything because of a single issue isn't really a great way to sway them to your ideals. Thinking that people are Republicans because they haven't been properly educated is just ignorant.

    It isn't all that surprising to me. Fox's bias isn't about a stand for a particular set of beliefs, it is about making money for Rupert Murdock. Fox (the broadcast channel) has long pushed the envelope on broadcasting decency(especially measured by conservatives) more than any other broadcast channel because that separates them from the other broadcast channels and is what gets them viewers in the context. Fox news promotes a deeply conservative environment because it separates them from the other cable-news channels and that is what gets them viewers in that context.
