Atheism is not a religion, it is a lack of one. The 'a' in atheism means 'off' or 'away', so literally 'away-religion' or 'off-religion'. I'd like to believe that there are more people who lack religion, but what I observe tells me that there are more people every day that believe that the magic man in the sky controls everything, which is really sad given that to date there is still zero evidence of a supreme being. I have no proof that God does not exist, but I also have seen no proof that he (she? it?) does exist. I'm a betting man, and my money is squarely and firmly on doesn't, but it's still based on probabilities. I could be wrong. (but probably not)
This bacteria can cause genetic changes in the stomach lining which lead to stomach cancer. I had the bacteria about 10 years ago, and the cocktail of antibiotics they give you for treatment is a nauseous nightmare.
I would periodically install software, run a scan, then uninstall it. Never found anything. Of course I failed to mention that most of my machines were SCO Unix...
I see your point, basically the few and the stupid are spoiling it for the rest of us, but I still don't really see how someone could be that gullible. I've had multiple systems connected to the internet since 1994, and didn't have a firewall until sometime in 2003 and I've NEVER contracted a virus. Snail mail spam doesn't make it into my house either. There's a reason that the recycle bin is between the mail box and the door. And no, I'm not that smart...
In theory, the spammers make money from people who read their messages or click on the links in those messages? Who actually reads this crap, and who the hell clicks on the links? Perhaps we could us this as a test? People who repeatedly open spam emails lose the right to breed, thus increasing the intelligence of society as a whole? I really fail to see why this problem even exists...
Because that's what they tell us they are for. I know they are lying about that, but this is the reason no one takes them seriously. Most people know that the whole shut off electronics for safety is bullshit, so they ignore it, just like the PSAs that tell you smoking the occasional joint will destroy your life. I would postulate that the lame nonsense FAA rules are in fact partly responsible for encouraging people to use their phones because they (the rules) are so obviously bullshit.
If the flight attendent stood up and said, "you have to stow all loose objects including cell phones because in the event of an emergency the object could bash you in the head at high speed and kill you or your neighbor" They'd probably get a lot more compliance.
Of course I don't care about this any more because with all the security bullshit I don't fly anymore.
That's the point. If it was about the projectile issue, the FAA rules would specify stowage. They don't, therefore the current rules are not about the projectile issue.
So it it't the projectile issue, why is it OK if I hold on the the phone/iPod, etc if it's off? Why is it OK if I read a 2lb hardcover book on take off? I seriously doubt that listening to the spiel before take off will enable most passengers to remember where the exist are in a crash - adrenaline will take over and they will panic. Me personally, I've heard it about 100 times and I know exactly where the exit is when I sit down, which about 50% of the time is right next to me, because I always book in advance and I always ask for exit row seating. Most people are repeat flyers and have also heard it multiple times. I don't need to listen to it every time I fly and neither do most people.
I understand what you're saying and I get the physics involved, but the rules as enforced today do not match what you're saying. If it was about the object becoming a projectile they would force you to put the object in a bag under the seat or in a pocket or something. They don't.
Not just personal photos, but for photos and media. I did. Not only that, but I back up my SAN. A better question is Who DOESN'T set up a SAN for their home network and why the fuck not?
This is correct. Apple's new processor will be named A5 and is a multi-code Cortex A9 processer. It will reportedly have dual-core SGX543 graphics, up from the A4's single SGX535 GPU, which means that in theory you could do 1080p on the device no problems at all. They are also replacing the Infineon chipset with a Qualcomm chipset that does both CDMA/GSM/UMTS.
Which reporters from Fox have donated? Reporters are supposed to be unbiased. Commentators and CEOs are not. Neither Keith Olbermann, Sean Hannity, Rupert Murdoch, etc did anything worn or unethical in donating to political causes. When reporters start donating it's a problem. IMO it's already a problem that well over 50% of reporters are card caring democrats, unless you're a democrat, that is.
And here's the great thing - choice. You don't like it, you don't use it, you made the choice that was right for you. Apple to date has sold something like 100 million iPhones/iPod touches/iPads. Seems like it's not a problem for a lot of people...

Sorry. The effects of the bacteria can cause changes that lead to cancer. Not a doctor.
Things change in 10 years, apparently for the better...

If he were around today he might kill a bunch of carbon based life forms, but he'd do it with petroleum and Twinkies.

10,000 is when they do it. I've measured this many times with a GPS unit that was supposed to be turned off...
Main store is on a MAC
Can't store a lot of data in 6 bytes...

Was she fat or something?
Whatever. It fucking works. I wasn't an English major - I studied real subjects...
I don't like the whole getting media from iTunes. I decided to get a MacMini for this purpose. Works really good.
You can talk to it now. DOesn't mean anything is going to happen though.

After all, a gramme is better than a damn.
Why is this a bad idea
Because the WiFis cause the cancers! I learned this on the internets and from the city council of San Fransisco.
