Until the Jew hides behind the rock and the tree. But the rock and tree will say: 'O Muslim, O servant of Allah, a Jew hides behind me, come and kill him.' Except for the Gharqad tree, which is the tree of the Jews. We believe in this Hadith. We are convinced also that this Hadith heralds the spread of Islam and its rule over all the land.... O Allah, accept our martyrs in the highest heavens.... O Allah, show the Jews a black day.... O Allah, annihilate the Jews and their supporters.... O Allah, raise the flag of Jihad across the land.... O Allah, forgive our sins
how christian of the pope to advocate turning the other cheek.
oh, wait. he never advocated that. he suggested a punch in the face.
WOW.
fake pope is fake. again. nothing godly about such people. they are born, they get sick and die like the rest of us and they eat and shit like the rest of us. the whole concept of a pope is actually funny to me, but I didn't grow up christian, so I was never brainwashed to think this guy had anything that the rest of us didn't.
I refuse to respect religion. its been an untouchable sacred cow (how's that for mixing metaphors?) for far too long in earth's history and I (and a bunch of others like me) would like to finally see some progress in this 'bearded sky wizard' bullshit fairy story stuff that we shove down kids' throats and brainwash them at early ages to think in terms of fake heros and 'saviors'.
you can continue to think that those things are real, but I DO NOT HAVE TO RESPECT YOU or your beliefs. same as if you 'knew' that the loch ness monster was real or that you that 'knew' that bigfoot was real. I'd think the same of you if you were a bigfoot believer or a jesus believer. same thing to me.
supports well over 75w tdp. so a 45w tdp is no problem at all, even at full load.
there is a case that is identical to the fc8-evo by 'perfect home theater' (in the boston area) and their case is quite a bit cheaper and pretty much the same thing as the streacom version.
you have to buy a mini-itx board and you also have to be careful if you need the 'long heat pipes' or 'short heat pipes', based on where the cpu socket is located. the perfect home theater store will sell you either (or both) of the HP lengths so you are covered.
highly recommended for a silent and super fast pc.
all modern os's wake up and do things, on their own. this competes with user tasks. having more cpus or threads or cores helps with this.
so, yes, i5 and i7 are helpful for even 'simple' desktop users. and my htpc is an i7, with 8 real cores, so that my movies are even that much resistant to being jittered by other proc's waking up and demanding cpu time.
i7-4790t (tray, oem only). 45 watts and truly a fanless buildable system (I did one, its great).
hard to find that chip. pretty much, no one has it (anymore). $300 or more, if you can find it. but wow, 45w on an i7 with 8 real cores. its great to do 'make -j9' on a fanless 'htpc';)
no, at this point (can't believe I'm saying this) - I trust MS more than I trust google.
I know what MS is up to and I can deal with them. they are not into wholesale spying and being *everywhere* on the web (can't avoid a google tracking site; everyone, now, uses them, sadly).
but google has depths of evil that we have not even seen yet. they have shown their true colors. they don't sell things TO US, they SELL US. that's a world of difference.
nope, parent was right. republicans ARE the 'party of war' and its been that way for decades, now.
hawks are the republicans. the dems are the hollywood darlings.
get your 'who funds who' straight, will ya?
but anyway, we HAVE spent so much money on wars, its clear that we DO have money (somewhere) and that we love spending it. for a change, lets turn our sights TO HOME and spend it HERE where it really does the most good.
as I posted just a few minutes before, many of us use (used) community colleges as a way to save a LOT of money on the 'useless first 2 years' that is mostly BS anyway. english is english; chem 101 is chem 101. calc 101 is calc 101, no matter where you go (for all intents and purposes).
I LOVE the idea of us finally giving our own people a direct benefit to the huge riches that are locked away in this country. there's zero reason why we can't fund 100% of our people to go to school! other MUCH LESS RICH countries seem to do this. no reason we can't.
you'll never see a republican suggest free school (unless its a 'jesus is god' school, of course). this is one of the first good ideas obama has shown, and one that is much more linked with the democratic party.
in fact, I used it (back in the 80's) as a way to save a LOT of money on the first year or 2 of my own college experience; the quality was as good as my other 4 yr schools (that I later went on to), it was something like $18/credit (!!) and I was able to live at home and have an easy transition from HS to college. going straight to college is a big shock to many and for me, I had that 'half step' and so I had a much easier and more fun time.
new systems will have backdoors and privacy leaks.
older systems did not have to conform to the 'we demand to wiretap any computer or network box' bullshit.
and if its been running so long, its obviously well designed and they know what to expect if things fail. today, once code compiles, they ship that crap and worry about the next 6mos of bugfixing. today's systems and code sucks badly compared to the slower and more careful design and testing they USED to do.
time to market ruined things. or, was a major cause in huge falling of software and hardware quality.
nice old classic tek test gear. highly in demand by collectors and those who appreciate good old fashioned engineering and build quality. the last of the 'repairable' tek scopes, pretty much (and even this is borderline repairable, with many custom chips).
still, a few new caps, a new battery backed nvram module and you have another 20 or 30 yrs left on this scope.
search that same forum for other old test gear (power designs (brand) power supplies are also built like tanks and run forever. I have 4 of them at home in my lab and they date from the mid 50's to early 60's. still hold their precision and would cost $5k to $10k today if you could even buy them.
I have audio gear that I personally built in the 70's and 80's that still runs fine (hafler amps, etc).
today, its hard to find things built to last, but it USED to be the norm "before your mother was born", so to speak.
god damned fucking cops enjoy using fraud to spy on us. they could not care less about our little laws and rules.
and yet, this company is doing pretty much the same thing. they are not cops so they will not get away with it.
but it stinks, no matter WHO does the frauding.
oh, and almost every company that gives employees laptops also frauds them, as they install custom mitm certs so they can spy on your comms while you use their laptop.
israel was attacked in 67. they fought back and won. they got extra land. that's how LIFE fucking works, dude! its how its ALWAYS worked.
anyone who suggests the winner 'turns over the land they won' to the losers, I want to see the US return all the land it stole from the native indians, first.
THEN we can talk about israel returning land it won fair and square in a war they did not want or start.
and what gives christians the 'right' to ignore the first word of god (many think that both bibles are the word of god. I certainly don't, but lets assume you do).
I never understood how you can rationalize a god who is perfect, makes up laws and rules for us to live by and then, some guy comes along much much later, says 'its all changed' and we are supposed to accept that?
an infallable god that needed a v2.0 update? REALLY?
even staying with the OT, god once was angry at mankind, flooded us and then 'promised not to fuck us up again like that'. real insightful and wise god, you guys got there.
and then, we have a god who makes man, certainly should KNOW what man is capable of, and then gets all pissed off when eve uses her humanity and questions shit and wants to learn stuff.
yeah, real smart god you guys have.
I never understood how a logical mind can accept this BS.
simple explanation: those that attend more expensive hotels are more WILLING and ABLE to pay 'screw you' wireless fees than us normal working stiffs.
also, those at big expensive hotels are often corporate fucks and those can just 'expense it', and not care.
subversion is just another form of 'git' ....
"was that wrong? should I not have done that?"
yes, its now a meme. a lame meme, at that.
but marriot became 'george' and acted all surprised when they were called out on their shit.
damned big business. in the US, they think they are god. and we pray to them, LIKE they are gods.
in a way, its our own fault for giving too much power to big business.
will we ever learn????
I don't quite get the joke. is that supposed to mean 'piss be upon him' or something like that? sort of an inside joke?
quoting a hadith:
Until the Jew hides behind the rock and the tree. But the rock and tree will say: 'O Muslim, O servant of Allah, a Jew hides behind me, come and kill him.' Except for the Gharqad tree, which is the tree of the Jews. We believe in this Hadith. We are convinced also that this Hadith heralds the spread of Islam and its rule over all the land....

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
sorry, but islam IS evil. read the fucked up shit they believe. talking trees and rocks suggesting that they kill those who are different.
this needs to go! I suggest we all vote them off the island. (btw, they are thinking the same thing, as shown above!)
how christian of the pope to advocate turning the other cheek.
oh, wait. he never advocated that. he suggested a punch in the face.

agreed with all of that except 'be respectful'.
I refuse to respect religion. its been an untouchable sacred cow (how's that for mixing metaphors?) for far too long in earth's history and I (and a bunch of others like me) would like to finally see some progress in this 'bearded sky wizard' bullshit fairy story stuff that we shove down kids' throats and brainwash them at early ages to think in terms of fake heros and 'saviors'.

I predict the return of a million russian woodpeckers
flood the 'watchers' with so much junk data, they won't be able to keep up.
(I can dream, at least, can't I?)
for a case, check this one out: streacom fc8-evo
supports well over 75w tdp. so a 45w tdp is no problem at all, even at full load.
there is a case that is identical to the fc8-evo by 'perfect home theater' (in the boston area) and their case is quite a bit cheaper and pretty much the same thing as the streacom version.

I'll have to take ten away from you, though.
(WOOF! WOOF!)
WRONG!

you don't have to complete the comm college.

damned straight!
lets use the concept of 'maybe the next evil bastard will think twice before ruining a life for personal gain', here.
ie, DETERRENT.
that's what law enforcement is all about, right? RIGHT??
so lets use their tools on them. scare the shit out of them so that they will think twice next time before they fuck someone in the ass.
'they all do it' is NO excuse! they don't allow citizens to use that excuse when normal people ignore a law and do what they 'felt' was right.
one word (well, maybe two):
STINGRAY

when will all this shit end???
I blame system-d.
system-d has angered god and we're now all paying for our software sins.
mother theresa WAS a piece of 'work' (and I don't mean that in a good way). she encouraged the poor to suffer.
how fucked up is THAT? I see no compassion there!
'my way or the highway' was her attitude.
fuck that!!!
she's no saint.

'original' text? of a bible?
there is no such thing. it was designed by committee.
if you think 'god' had anything to do with it, you could not be more wrong.
its 100% man-made. and so, there is no 'original word of god'. simply because, there is no god.
