And I guess they are trying to encourage Open Source Brotherhood, not realizing that most BSD users would prefer not to be associated with most Linux users.
Really? that's why every linux convention thing I've been too, has had a BSD booth. Or almost all conversations with BSD users seem to involve Linux in some way. Please. A win for BSD is a win for Linux and vice versa. Soon as linux takes over the desktop BSD will win converts.
In response to your sig.. perhaps you should go look up who in congress voted for it. Unless you think democrats are so dumb that they would vote for something like that. Or perhaps you think democrat = republican.
Bullshit. I'm tired of hearing this. Innovation takes time, and it takes longer to get it right. There has never been more innovation in the history of the world than in the last 100 years or so. And people are constantly trying to innovate, but, most of it is done isn't done well enough for people to care.
I think they've been quite honest about the whole thing. In an interview with some of the officers behind AA, they said nobody expects someone to play the game and then go join the army, this game opens up communication channels with a group that they may have had untaped(of course parphrased). They also said that it helps show the world(with the strong european AA community there is) how great the US Army is. SO they openly admit it's part propaganda and part recruitment tool.
just you. I think he's done a good enough job, don't aggree with everything he's done, but i think he'll do a better job than Kerry or Nader, so I'm voting for him again in november. And i'm certainly not alone in this opinion.
IV, III he was somewhat of a good guy still., at the end of III you destroy the Kilrathi homeworld, or you get your heart squeezed and you die(or you get vaporized). IV is the whole black lance thing, which Towelyn(sp?) runs and gets hanged for, assuming you beat win the last segment.
Me personally, not a whole lot, i'm guessing very similiar to what you've given the world. My country has given a whole hell of a lot and has been around for such a small amount of time.
I said 1940's.. not 1940. And even if what you say is 100% true(I really have no idea, i've never heard this before), we(and by we I don't mean the US alone) still did it, even if it was Churchill who convinced us to do so.
America has left a mark on history, and it is still up for grabs as to what that mark exactly is. But right now, it's looking like a stain
OK.. that's right.. that's why the EU is so much like the US huh. Wasn't it winston churchill who suggested that Europe should create a united states of Europe? mmm. The fact is america has already given the world so much. Maybe we'll lose our place as #1 soon. So what. I can't wait for that day so then people will stop bitching about how bad we are. But they'll take everything we've given to the world.
The french helped you fight us off, the french bled and died fighting for your freedom. That makes any jibe by an american toward them (ala the republicans not long ago) a spew of filth.
gee.. what was that war that happened in the 1940's mmm....
People be anti america all you want, by doing so you are being quite american.
OK they recieved a tip that certainly, if true would be extremely serious, so they took it seriously and this makes you paranoid? It's good to know that our government takes threats seriously until they can be proven not to be serious, as in this case. Makes you lose sleep? well it makes me sleep better.
I personally think that too many funds are being diverted to sports activities rather than something that actually matters.
I love this attitude that sports don't matter or that they are worthless ect. While I aggree that to much money is spent on them, they are infact a great thing for a person to be involved in. They teach things like teamwork, strategizing(sp?), getting along with people you don't like, discipline.. ect ect. If I was a parent, I'd rather have my children play sports than participate in mathclub. Learning Math and sciences are not essential (and there is plenty of time later to learn those things) to growing up. Learning the things you do playing sports are.
Boy, how many times can right-wing be used in one post I wonder. The fact is, it's the same story anywhere. Left-wingers do the same thing, name any sort of semi-political organization and they'll do it, even if not intentional. I mean look how fair and balanced slashdot is...
Also, I never once thought that Al Gore claimed to have invented the internet. Even when I heard it, I thought that it was to outragous of a claim to be made. And Then when I saw the interview it all made sense. I think it's silly that people don't use common sense when it comes to mudslinging or whatever else that gets spouted off.

oh well more homestarrunner.com for me :)
bah, innovation is dead, shame

hey now, c89.5 fm plays seattle's hottest music.
well it means there's another prime number over n. be it the number ittself or a factor of the number
well you are guarentied a new prime number, be it the number or a factor of the number
wrong. even though yer trolling or whatever..
take all the primes up to a point, multiply them together and add 1, and you have a prime number.
3 * 2 + 1 = 7, 2 * 3 * 5 + 1 = 31 ect
just you. I think he's done a good enough job, don't aggree with everything he's done, but i think he'll do a better job than Kerry or Nader, so I'm voting for him again in november. And i'm certainly not alone in this opinion.
damn... my roomate can do it 79 seconds.. i'll have to tell him this.. my record is 127
I think this is quite wrong, but since everything is driven by money, this is the state that the world is in right now.
This game was much like slashdot, no one ever even got to first base.

You cannot justify, excuse, or mitigate torture.
You can't? I can, if by torturing someone, you get information that saves countless lives, I'd call that justified.
That said, I have no idea what they have/would/could of gotten out of this instance. And nore am I condoning it, but I'm not for outlawing it either.
What exactly have you given to the world ?

I recall seeing a list of Al-Queda's top targeted countries, US was number 1 and I believe UK was 2 and Canada was 4. Anyhow Canada was in the top 5.

I believe the number is in the thousands and he's sexist too. How many men has he shafted? 0. What a chauvanist pig.
Pardon my swearing, but just how the fuck can you destroy Gilligan's Island?????
