    How is this different from the Nazis bulldozing villages known to oppose the occupation??

  8. Jumping to conclusions on The Brains of Men and Women Are 'Wired Differently' · · Score: 1

    Different wiring for different sexes does not in itself imply genetic predetermination but might as well be a consequence of differences in what challenges grown ups are likely to present to the child. ... Oh! I see Heidi Johansen-Berg says something to that effect as well in the last paragraph - good!

    The US funds them to have its bases there. The fifth fleet, for example, is headquartered in Bahrain of all places and would be kicked out the instant the oppressive regime was overturned. Smile and be happy while it lasts.

  10. X?? on Google Is Bringing Chrome Remote Desktop App To Android · · Score: 1

    Actually, the lack of a decent Xserver is what makes Androids so totally unusable to me - but I suppose, since it could be useful, that that's not what they are up to.

  11. Re:GPU is not that useful for audio on Realtime GPU Audio · · Score: 1

    Fortunately, you are terrible wrong! :-) On the GPU you can trivially explore the parallelism of multiple identical channel strips or multiple, polyphonic synth voices. The code to do this can almost be copy/pasted from your favorite on-line DSP resource - the difference being that you'll get 32 of each (assuming the function call is warp aware) rather than one.

  12. Re:Support on 1 World Trade Center Becomes the Tallest Building In NYC · · Score: 1

    One question that is completely missing in the discussion is "Why did they attack?" ... I think to most people this is still a deep mystery, it just came out of the blue for no reason at all. Very few see the connect to the (still ongoing) US foreign policy against the peoples of the Middle East.

    Afghanistan does not have any training facilities for flying large civil aircraft. Not then and not now. Bin Laden lived there, and - well, that's about it. He lived there.

    If you want full civil rights in Israel, yes, you'd have to serve in the army. I believe that you too are well aware of this and deceptively pretending otherwise is just plain foolish!

    ... "an academic institution that not only places a major amount of its efforts in military technology, but also in promoting student/soldier cooperative programs, is therefore deeply implicated in the occupation and crimes committed by the military." ...

  18. Re:Did South-Africa ... on Israel To Join CERN As First Non-European Member · · Score: 1

    This is by some complicated ancient accounting where only those in favor of the rulers (ie: Settlers in the territories, but not Palestinians) are allowed to vote, and where even larger parts of the population in the diaspora (ie: Palestinians but not Jews) will be shot on entry. And you will of course have to serve in the Army, which for Palestinians means you must be willing to expel your own relatives if this has not already happened. Yes, it's different, very
