    yeah but being entirely crushed in a matter of milliseconds is decidedly less painful than being boiled to death over the span of a few minutes.

    That said, crabs are damn tasty. I think I'll have to hit up Red Lobster for dinner tonight.

    Not to mention extremely expensive with little real pay off.

    Colleges have become diploma mills... where you go so you can get Real Good Jobs (R) in the future.

    They are becoming less and less the places where new ideas are born and old ideas are challenged.

    Nasa needs to get the facts:

    When the world never seems
    to be livin up to your dreams

  23. Re:Capitalism vs. Communism on Sun's McNealy Wants Obama to Push Open Source · · Score: 1

    Uh, under capitalism, Bob gets 100% the result of his work, i.e. 0.000X%. Whereas Jack gets the fruits of his labor, which is far more than Bob.

    So JACK is the one whom capitalism makes more sense for... you know, sensible people with brains who work hard. I hope you misread my comment or something, or else you're some kind of hippy communist douche.

    If that's the case, all I can say in response is that what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

    That's correct... except you obviously did not read the OP.

    Unless you consider that an intelligent post.

  25. Re:Capitalism vs. Communism on Sun's McNealy Wants Obama to Push Open Source · · Score: 1

    The problem is that Jack does X and gets back money, food, power, etc.

    But Bob does 0.000X and gets back the same amount.

    That's why capitalism makes more sense.

    All men are not created equal.
