  1. What bullshit answers on John Smedley Answers Your Questions · · Score: 1

    If you don't want to answer why don't you just say no - ooh right, that would require integrity.

    Not everybody cheers - its just that those who disagree get modded down (and their moderation ability removed)

    Where you can get from level 1 to 60 in a month of play, instead of the usual no life games which require 12 hours (and 50 other people) every day for 3 years to get anywhere?

  10. Re:Cause the Bible is translated wrong on Kansas Board of Ed. Adopts Intelligent Design · · Score: 1

    There has never been an "original text" of the entire Bible, it's a compilation.

    Of original texts.

      But even if there was, the original is by definition not a translation.

    Then by definition it wasn't that he was talking about.

  11. Re:Cause the Bible is translated wrong on Kansas Board of Ed. Adopts Intelligent Design · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure what you mean by "original translation of the Bible."

    Perhaps there is refering to that fact there are tons of translations which are all different and the original text is long lost.

  12. Re:Uh-oh... bad wording choice there, Mr. AP on Grokster Shutting Down? · · Score: 1

    Seriously, though, if you want a certain company's product, pay for it. If you wouldn't pay $0.01 for it, then why bother downloading it at all?

    Because you don't know if its worth the 0.01 until after you have downloaded it?

    No that's not true. Some people objected to americas interferene in their countries, but a large group of countries didn't really care and didn't dislike the US - until Bush started his Vader trip. He did what no president did before him, get something like 90% of the people on the planet to dislike the country.

  15. Re:a new internet on A Monroe Doctrine for the Internet · · Score: 1

    When you say EU protests when the US makes a murderous jihadist sit uncomfortably for a few hours, you showed yourself for an inhuman fool not worth wasting time on.

    You gave up any pretense of serious discourse when you started spewing nonsense, don't be surprised when people don't take you serious.

    I think it's more a matter of "What you want isn't terribly relevant to us", more than "We want you to turn against us."

    Yes, that is the way childre are before they grow up and learn its not all about them all the time.

    We also know in advance, that if we don't go along with what you want in pretty much any department, the answer to "What are you going to do about it?" is "Nothing."

    The only think the EU could do at the moment is to go to war, and its too soon for that. But it may come to that one day.

    Your ilk comes

    You have no idea who am I except in your prejudice and jingoism.

    demands we do things just to garner your goodwill,

    Nonsense, you just haven't been paying attention.

    You somehow harbor the notion that the US should behave on some imaginably high plane of moral standards,

    No, just up to yours.

    Yet the egragious moral acts of other countries go unnoticed so your kind can run a sob story about how some murderous jihadist, having been captured, was made to sit uncomfortably for a few hours.

    All of this is clearly wrong and shows you for someone with very low intelligence and/or emotional problems(or perhaps very young).

    Wether it fractures or not depends on you, not us.

    No, because if you had been paying attention it would have learned that no EU countries are talking about leaving, they are trying to keep the rest of the world in. But of course rather than being a force for unity you support more war and violence. But then that seems to be the bush motto: Peace through slaughtering all the opponents.

    Most US citizens could give a rats ass if they can't surf to USAisaRoguenation.org.nz.

    Because most of them are uneducated dolts who have no interest in bettering themselves. But with your incompetent education system that is hardly surprising.

    Now go away and play with your playstation.

    "Not when it turns the rest of the world against its citizens."

    And the sort of folks or governments that care about this sort of technical arcana....


    Most countries care about not turning the world against it and its citizens, the only exceptions seem to be rouge nations.


    Scour at us, frown, and write very angry letters. And when we ignore all that, write an even more strongly worded letter.


    They have tried to reason - which is of course a mistake to begin with - but I'm not sure the EU is ready to go to war with the US quite yet.

    I doubt all these concerned european powers can

    And you object to it simply by reflex - its european so must be bad. These "europeans" are trying to protect the net which is almost certain to fracture in the future if they don't.

    Since most people are not very intelligent or artistic, the state needs to fund it - otherwise society slides back into the slime.

    You can hardly fault a government from wielding its power to make the world better for its citizens (isn't that's their function, after all?).

    They may think that's the point, but I don't want some extra app to search and index my computer - I'd like just to have their RSS modules - but in the previous version you couldn't disable it, and so i didn't use it. I suspect this one is no different.
