  1. Re:Doesn't make a difference. on Windows Vista Service Pack 2 Released · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Do you believe everything you read or hear on the net and TV? I've been using Vista 64bit for about two years now. It's the best (released) OS I've seen out of MS so far. Very stable since SP1 was released. Initially, yes there were problems. Most of the issues I encountered were due to Nvidia drivers however, not problems caused by MS. I seem to remember having similar issues when XP was released many moons ago. I still maintain that the only real problem with Vista is the media and users that are too afraid to learn modern tech.

    That was actually the first thing I thought of when I read the headline. This would make a much more efficient (and actually "cleaner") thermonuclear weapon. It might also lend itself to further miniaturization.

  3. Re:Does the US Get It Yet? on Backlash Builds Against US Copyright Blacklist · · Score: 1

    Killing innocent people as part of a deliberate attempt to xripple an enemy (even to end war) is still killing innocent people. There is no doubt that the people who decided to toss the bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki knew that thousands of innocent people would die. They deliberately killed innocent people.

    Study your history. The Japanese intentionally built their manufacturing facilities within residential zones (or at least in very close proximity to them). Yes it was unfortunate, but with the factories still in operation, how could the war be won? On a side note, war is definitely horrible. To this end I will agree. However war and violence are a major driving force in our evolution. Many of our greatest achievements as as species have been products of war initially.

  4. Re:Oh well on Pirate Party Banned From Social Networking Site · · Score: 1

    Maybe you need a refresher on history. While Georgie Washington was fighting the good fight, Ben Franklin was off in France for much of the revolutionary war soliciting monies from the French. Hardly sounds like excusing themselves from polite society. Also getting back to the issue at hand, it's a political movement. Not just a bunch of 14 year old leeches on PB. From what I've gathered, their opposing unjust copyright laws.
