I cant be bothered to check too deeply into my reasoning(is that the slashdot effect?). But, I would guess that the schools are protecting themselves from lawsuits so that if little johnny/janey has a heart attack while doing gym the school doesn;t get sued for millions as it would obviously just have to be their fault.

I am more than happy with my 4.5/100km (or 52mpg). I always halve a good laugh when I see companies touting their fuel economy for their latest models. And my car is 13 years old. Although about 65% of that is country driving.
I am now beginning to suspect that not only did man not walk on the moon but that there was never actually any rockets to begin with.
Seriously though, how the hell could this happen. i would have thought that something like the Apollo/Saturn V project/s would have been documented to the Nth degree and that documentation kept extremely safe.
I am guessing that there just wasn't any profit in it.
I pay a medicare Levy out of my weekly wages. It doesn't upset me in the slightest. As the poster above me said it is all part of being a participating member of a community. My money even funds methadone for heroin addicts and thats fine with me too as they are people too. I will never ever understand people from the US there really is something fundamentally broken inside of a lot of you
You can rave about how charitable you think you are but I reserve the right to call 'sheenanigans'.
The most ridiculous part about US 'consumers' (they sure aren't citizens) and the health care question is the fact that they aren't demanding that their health is taken care of due to the amazing amount of taxes they pay.
I am in Australia and as far as I am concerned our medicare system works brilliantly. If you want private coverage and/or private hospital with cable TV and a private room then you pay for it. Although for a private room in Australia with Cable TV you pay bugger all compared with a US citizen who would pay a lot more for a much lower level of service.
I do agree with the US consumers though as the proposed reforms for their system do nothing but guarantee greater profits to a seriously broken and predatory health system. To do it right in the US they would have to dismantle the stupid system they have now and as they are not citizens just consumers it will NEVER happen.
It's not anything to do with the placebo, it's that the drugs that are being developed currently don't do anything.
I disagree. A large percentage of weird violence is committed by people on modern pharmaceuticals.

You have to be very careful hating minorities. Apparently if you hate homosexuals it means you are secretly gay. If this applies to those that espouse hate towards religion then a lot of people have some serious problems. Turns out that I am a black-jewish-muslim-christian-homosexual with transgender sympathies.
In Adelaide, Australia they give out free personality and IQ tests. I was with a friend and we did the IQ test. I know what my IQ is and I could take an educated guess as to what my friends is approximately. After the test we turned out to both have an IQ of 127. My IQ is quite different to that figure (damn I can barely do up my shoelaces) and my friend has problems spelling words like Kat and remembering his own name.
They then offerred us full time employment within the church where we would have full room and board and a disposable income after all our needs where met of $7 a week. Unfortunately, I already had a job otherwise I would have jumped at the opportunity.
How many usec's of code is spawn_bullet? Just wondering? And if ga_ stands for Game Arena then you dont need a sleep(9000) command. It's obviously bigpond so the sleep is implied.
What would be acceptable methodology there? Do cats play console games? is the button actually pressed? Does it press itself? Have you checked the power cable?
So the taxpayer covers the cost of research and the profits are then made selling those products to the taxpayer with a huge markup? I thought that's the system we had now?

Why yes, I am an MS shill - I earned US$10 for this post alone !
Do they have an affiliate program? I am prepared to prostitute myself. Posting on /. is getting laid for nerds
Why will Steam have to redownload your games? You know you can back them up to a removable media and restore them very very easily?

Agreed! there is a big difference between using an office suite fully and productively and writing your mum a letter from college in MS-Word.
except of course the computer
hooray
I was kidding

I guess that server was fucked then
Because they plan to embrace and extend it. That actually means steal and break it.
I think he defined why the US is such an awful place very well

I originally joined years ago and have a very very low UID. But I forgot my username and password so now I'm a newbie.
Those Thetans sure are gullible

How much did you pay for that UID ?
Do people really sell low numbered /. IDs?

If I have told you once, then I will tell you a thousand times. It is GENTOO so you will need to recompile the kernel.
