PETA is not a group that anyone should frankly support. PETA is known for terrorist threats and actions against humans and large scale property destruction for the job of destroying animal hospitals and humane societies. PETA makes large statements about how animals have the right to attack humans and will verbally and publicly bash victims of hunting accidents where the animal attacks. PETA should be shut down by the government, they are a nonprofit society that seeks to punish humans with no clear case, cause or rational. Anything PETA seeks to do is to purely hurt humans for the sake of animals, what logical society would do that? If you think I'm blowing smoke:
Not believing in evolution because an invisible man in sky, told a bunch of random men / women to write a book, isn't really logical now is it? The evolutionary tree is pretty complete, it does a great job of tracking many different branches and thanks to DNA we can verify the branches pretty closely. So I wouldn't say that one third of Americans don't believe in evolution, I would say that one third believe in blind ignorance.
I've flat out refused in the past to give my password over for my notebook and on only one occasion got delayed in my travels. I ordered to talk to the the guards immediate supervisor and told her that if she wanted to search the notebook she could de-crypt it herself. They couldn't show me probable cause or need to search my notebook so as far as I was and I'm concerned they can go fuck themselves. Either show me a warrant or let me leave, even in the past when my notebook wasn't encrypted, I had to answer questions about why I wasn't running Windows, so they might try to act tough and in charge but they have very little power to actually do anything.
Religion should never be used to justify / stifle science or medical advancements. If you don't want The Pill covered then fine, just don't buy it, personally i like knowing that when I sleep with my girl friend she is protected. Religion hurts the world, it blocks logic and demands stupidity, personally I think we should block religion from being practice.
It's true that given the course of time they will end up with Malware or Spyware or something that they should of been protected from, but installing AV software will generally in my experience delay that for a good while. I personally would never touch MSE, Microsoft doesn't make security software, they have so many holes and so many bugs in the software that really it's the exact opposite of security. Anyone who is willing to trust Microsoft for security should get the hell out my server room and run, I want security, not broken glass.
I've seen it do that one time and my mother was smart enough to call me and ask. I wouldn't really call it an issue, because even if you manually pay after being auto-billed you can get your money back with no fuss.
I wouldn't call Symantec's products horribly wicked but then again maybe I haven't had your experience with them. Resource hog wise, AVG and Kaspersky are pretty much as bad as they come. After installing Kaspersky on a virtual server and noticing that my virtual CPU was locked at 4.0 ( in top, so 400% load ), I ended up on a conference call for 6+ hours, only to determine that no one had at Kaspersky had any idea what the hell was happening. The solution ended up being that I had to scrap the virtual machine and almost re-image the server, very professional products. As for AVG, well I haven't had any horribly experience with it, resource wise, I've seen it lock many CPU's, never to the point I had to do anything drastic like with Kaspersky but still. If I had my choice I would use Clam AV all the time, it has the best overall resource management. Norton comes in slightly under Clam AV, well Norton has also been observed loading down the CPU, it does it far less and for shorter periods then either AVG or Kaspersky, not the mention the many other crap AV's I've tried.
Sticking around wise, I don't know what you're talking about. I've never had any problem uninstalling Norton, in fact Kaspersky has the worst "stick around" effect out of all the AV's. Kaspersky has been known to install improper registry keys that cause conflicts. Having to dig through the registry to find the keys that shouldn't be there is a pain in my ass and one I shouldn't have to do. Kaspersky is AV software written by children for morons, it will forever be at the bottom of my list for protection software.
As for NOD32 and Malwarebytes, there okay, just have never really used them in the past, Norton hasn't given me any reason to switch and at this rate never will.
No I didn't, you know Symantec is certified for corporate and enterprise level security systems. You would have to figure that would come down into the residential products. Compared to products like AVG or Clam, I would pick Norton for the average user 99% of the time. Not to say that AVG and Clam aren't great, but the average user wants to set it up and never look at it again, which is what Norton can give you that AVG and Clam can't.
I just go with my family and friends when they want a new notebook. I check out the software and hardware and I make sure it fits there needs. I always get them to buy good quality computer protection software like Norton 360 and I always tell them to call me before anyone touches the computer for work, such as a futureshop or bestbuy. The biggest single point that I can make or recommend, NEVER buy a notebook from a seller who can't tell you solid hardware details, such as the audio chipset, the rev on the processor or model of the HDD. The reason being if they can't give you the proper stats, they shouldn't be selling notebooks. I also always make sure they buy a backup drive and make sure they setup Norton or any other software to auto backup for them. Basically I just help them get to a steady state and from that point on I just make sure I'm around for repairs or help. Never send someone who doesn't know how to, to buy computer hardware, they will get bullied into buying what they don't need.
Stop forcing kids to use IDE's and make them use text editors and compilers. The biggest joke I have noticed in computer science is making kids using IDE's for ASM and C. They spend more time loading the IDE's and more time setting up the projects then the entire project would take in the first place. Proper computer science starts on the command line with a old editor like VIM and a compiler like GCC, anything else is just wasteful.
Css has horrible support for multi resolution layouts. Currently the best we can really do is to use either a framework or use javascript to scale everything at load time.
If phone makers would standardize screen sizes and resolutions then we could make great mobile sites. The problem is they don't and hence with every new phone we need to re-scale and re-deploy the sites.
If you take concepts out of definition then you can make many things sound offensive, racist or sexist. That is not the fault of CS or the programming languages, that is just ignorance in the hands of the user. So I should of said, "Show me an example of racism or sexism in the correct context of both programming languages and scripting languages."
I will give it to you that you provided an answer, but you provided the answer by taking concepts out of context, which I don't think really puts the blame in the hands the world of computer science. For instance, you could show me a line that says:
The is an extreme example but you won't find something like ( as far as I know ) in any modern programming language, included in the libraries provided by those languages.
Show me one example where coding is sexist or racist. When I say an example, show me syntax, I program in C, C++, PHP, ASM, PERL, PYHTON, BASH, SH, a variety of web languages and other desktop languages. I have yet to see syntax which is racist or sexist.
So by not living in a hyper clean environment as kids and by developing a proper immune system that is capable of fighting off allergies, bacteria and viruses we might be healthier as adults! This is radical, I can't believe no one put two and two together until now. That isn't to say you should live in a biohazard but honestly it's pretty obvious that we need to introduce children the real world so they can develop a proper immune system to being with.
The problem is that most people won't see this for the what the issue actually is. The issue is that a religious symbol was place on public property and hence violated several key ideals, one of which is the separation between church and state. That alone isn't a big issue as long as you allow the any religious or non religious group to display a symbol representing their viewpoints and their beliefs. For instance if you show the 10 commandments ( most of which are pretty bad over all rules ) then fairly you must also allow atheists, The FSM, Satanists, The Church of Heavy Metal or etc... to display what they want. This isn't a case about which religion is right or even if religion makes sense, this is purely a case of unfair representation that must be equalized or taken away. After all if you flip this entire deal around and allow the Satanists to put a display and disallow Christians, what would happen?
Unity might be the worst graphical interface I've ever used, it is a bad excuse at best for a high school level GUI project. Now Canonical want's to go further and decide to write a control centre? If history is any guide to how this will turn out, the control centre will be almost unusable, it will have a layout that will make you scratch your head and wonder who laid it out and overall it make more Ubuntu users jump over to gnome 3.
There is 100% no link between autism and vaccinations, every single study that has been done has proven this. The one study which falsely promoted evidence that autism is linked to vaccinations was shot down in review and retracted.
If you're a parent who is anti vaccination and your child ends up getting infected with a disease they could of easily fought off with a vaccination then I think you should go to jail for abuse. 99% of the parents who deicde they know better or are better qualifed to make the vaccination choice are simple unaware and dangerous morons who think they should be allowed to play doctor and medical expert based on incorrect reports and very poor evidence. If you play doctor professionally and don't have license you can go to jail, so why should we not subject these parents to the same and worse? If you don't vaccinate and your child gets sick because of not being vaccinated then you abused the child and hence should suffer for that.
If the original authors didn't put that feature in and never intended to then just show the different in code revisions from version a -> b. Once the court sees the authors didn't do it they are ( or should be ) off the hook.
The desktop isn't dead, the desktop is very much alive and well. Try doing FPGA design / VHDL design without a laptop or a desktop. Try doing intensive computing in Matlab / Octave without a desktop / laptop. I can keep going but there is no point, the desktop / laptop is very much needed in many cases, let alone servers.

I agree, that is what im getting at, we need to expose the immune sysem to "aliens" to train it.
