And that's why libertarian socialists have to find new terms to define themselves by. "Libertarian" has been hijacked by capitalists and "socialist" has been hijacked by Stalinists.
Maybe you should learn how to use a Linux system before deciding it's crap 'cause you can't do a double-click install with your little GUI. Doh did I say that?
Maybe we want to be albe to provide it to ourselves and not have it either sold to us in restricted forms or provided to us by inefficient beuracracies. That's what the community is trying to do where I live in Texas but that 'efficient' government is attempting to pass regulations that will end up prohibiting it at the behest of the companies that sell access. Is that what anti-communism is all about? Why is that good or efficient?
Here here. Wouldn't IMAP be more natural to use with these services than POP? Until they have IMAP I'll never 'switch' to one and only use them as spam catchers.
I was just on the verge of diving into the modernity and purchase/subscribe to a DVR. Tivo was one of the top choices - but forget it now. What other good choices are there, really? Besides spending a few grand on building my own.
I understood that they were simply completely different things. What do you mean by predecessor? Prions evolved into virii? Any source besides some pulp sci-fi about dinosaurs?
I mean, who, other than a pirate, would buy a couple hundred blank CDRs/DVDRs?
This is a good point. And I have an answer. There are multitude of underground record labels (more indy than indy) and self-releasing artists that use audio CDr recordings as a cheap and fast way of publishing their own music. Usually these are done on the blank-topped or ready-to-print CDrs. Perfectly legit and it will be pretty sad when that scene is killed because of the RIAA's anti-piracy tactics.
I've woken up in Tuscon, AZ, and made Austin, Texas by dinner. Texas is big, but it isn't that big.
Hmmm, while technically possible (Google Maps shows a 16 hour drive from Tucson to Austin) seems a little unlikely. Guess it depends on what time you got up (before dawn?) and how late your dinner was.
It's not flamebait if someone simply has a different point of view than you do. You say there is no such thing as fear-based Christianity - then explain the threat of eternal damnation for the unsaved/unbaptized/unholy masses. Sounds like a threat to me! If I don't believe as you do I spend the rest of time 'wailing and gnashing' my teeth.
Maybe you should think about the fact that your worldview is only one of countless others out there and that there's a likely possibility that it's not THE correct one. If a person can't accept that possibility, no matter what religion or philosophy they adhere to, then that person is the one in denial.
Oh - are ideals such as the pursuit of happiness, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, right to bear arms, due process and the like Christian ideals? If so, please point out where these are discussed in the Bible and how the scripture lines up with the Bill of Rights and the Constitution. Thanks.
They don't need to evolve their religious theory. It's already been adapted into Jehovah creating the universe. I'm not convinced life on another planet will be religion-shattering.
You post is funny, but when I first read the article summary my first thought was of companies stacking the staff there. Send a bunch of people to apply. If they get accepted (more likely if they are desperate) then stack things in your favor.
Didn't mean to make this an abortion argument. Just pointing out the hipocracy in the blaming of liberals on the "think of the children" blather.
Justification for heinous human rights infringement? At what point is a fetus a human being? We (collective "we") still haven't figured this out.
Besides it's these upholders of "human rights" (i.e. anti-abortionists) who seem so ready to kill brown people in the name of false freedom, illusions of safety and What Would Jesus Do. Get real.
"think of the children" has typically been the liberal gun banners mantra, not the conservatives. How many times have the gun grabbers repeated the same tired "if it saves just one childs life" phrase?
You're right. The conservatives mantra is "think of the fetus".
So are you just using it as a non-issue to spew your hate speech or did you not care about the issue enough to do anything besides read about it at some kookie conspiracy web site?
I love the twisting of the term "hate speech" lately. No longer does it refer to racial seperatists or people that torment others because of their sexuality. It now means "criticism of the right". God damn all the hippies out there need to learn some good old-fashioned linguistic manipulation techniques!
And of course making a connection between what someone says and 'kookie conspiracy' sites and theories immediately nullifies any point the person was attempting to make.
You had some valid arguments and points but that one sentence ruined it all for me. Not that you should care.

Why does no one take this seriously? One day we're going to move to metric time. Why not now?
This just isn't the right time.
As an owner of an Ipod Nano I can attest that mine is still fine after two weeks. Not sure what in the hell people are doing to theirs....

How often are you doing kernel patches on a high-availability production system? Just wondering.

Awwww, picking on my spelling from something I typed before my first cup of coffee. How quaint.
Oh Noes!!!

I've lived in Texas for 34 and have.

Is Slashdot still relevant?

Well, if you really want it implemented go to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ and put in your feature request.

You know what happens when you post a link on Slashdot, right?

Intelligent life is another matter, maybe.
