It would be NICE if History Channel would go back to showing WWII documentaries all the time. It would be better than the bullshit they have on there now.
Lately it's been the 2012 end-times prophecy channel. Every other show on that channel is now Nostradomus, The Bible Code (ha), and psuedo-science shows that have catchy names like "Earth's Black Hole" in which they interview the quack John Hutchinson (google hutchinson effect for his quackery) about the possibilities of a black hole being located in the ocean....
That's a funny statement, but also very true for a lot of people. The only times in the past few years I can recall using IE was on a fresh install when I needed to access mozilla.com to get firefox.
I'm sorry, but this isn't a clever ploy to get windows users to switch to linux. It's not very clever to think that something like boot times will makes someone switch their OS of choice.
Name them. You're saying a Democratic Congressman is trying to bring back the Fairness Doctrine, so surely you can actually name this congressman, right?
Right?
Colorado may not be in what is commonly thought of as the bible belt, but take a close look at Colorado Springs. Ever hear of Focus on the Family? Ted Haggard? Tony Perkins?
The concept of a copyright is fine. I'm talking about the modern day armies of copyright LAWYERS that have bastardized the concept of copyright. The type of people that keep pushing to expand the terms of a copyright, thus keeping every modern work out of the public domain for our life times.
I'm glad we had libraries before copyright lawyers. If someone suggested the concept of a library today as a new idea, it would be shot down instantly.
I mean seriously, why can't we have a virtual public library on the internet that lets us read books for free, in the way a public library works?
Why is it fine to lend books at the library, but not ok to download a book and just read it?
Have libraries cost the publishing world billions of dollars in lost revenue? I don't think so.
That an interesting question, but what it makes me wonder is how liquid behaves in lesser gravity than earth. Could weaker gravity cause liquid to behave slightly different than it does here on earth?
Well if you had any knowledge of the rover mission you'd know that it was a geological mission, and the rover has many instruments for analyzing minerals in rocks.
It didn't have something to test for water on itself because when the mission was designed no one thought there might actually be liquid water splashing on the thing. It's easy to sit in your armchair and criticize something with 20/20 hindsight.
That's why scientists aren't calling it water.
I already see a few anti-science posts here, and it's astounding that these knuckle draggers don't understand that there is more than one substance this could be, and scientists won't say what it is until they can prove what it is.
Oh the precious tax dollars!
You do realize that scientists have a higher burden of proof, right? They aren't going to say it's water until they analyze it and can confirm with certainty what it is.
Damn right it's my tax dollars at work, and millions of us approve of it.
when Obama achieves failure like Bush did, I'll regret my vote.
I don't see him coming anywhere near that level of incompetence and failure yet though.
I'll wait until the Obama team actually does something I disagree with before I freak out.
And if this post goes like Kdawson's many anti-Microsoft posts that aren't based in reality, then I think I'm wise to hold off and getting the pitchforks out just now.
So you couldn't get your cracked application to work, and were using beta drivers for a beta OS and your sound came out like shit.
Where exactly is the evidence of massive DRM? Oh yeah, there isn't any.
This has got to be the dumbest fucking article I've ever seen on/.

Taxes are the price we pay for a modern society.
I'll take Stallman's contributions to the world over hers any day. What did she do again?

You demand that the government censor the entire internet for the safety of The Children!

The fact that politicians and media elite now use twitter doesn't make it good. It makes it even more annoying.

In a perfect world, your PC would make your coffee while it was booting.
You are clueless, and hopeless. The scientific method doesn't work like you believe it does.

Let me guess. You don't get laid much.

The rovers are a "stupid" "big fuck up"?
Now I've heard it all.
