#1 There are plenty of agnostic/athiest nutjobs... trust me... the love is spread equally among religions (and yes... athiesm is a religion... takes just as much belief as any other.
#2 The sad thing... for religion types the Sunday holy day types are the nutjobs.
The Catholic church changed that many years back.. still controversial as to why, but even Catholics have admitted there is no Biblical basis for it:
"Question: Have you any other way of proving that the Church has power to institute festivals of precept?
"Answer: Had she not such power, she could not have done that in which all modern religionists agree with her-she could not have substituted the observance of Sunday, the first day of the week, for the observance of Saturday, the seventh day, a change for which there is no Scriptural authority." -- Stephen Keenan, A Doctrinal Catechism 3rd ed., p. 174
So... yeah... we believe in God... and that He is almighty... and He said we should observe Saturday... but we are just gonna ignore this one. Ever wonder why European types consider Monday as the first day of the week? Makes it a ton easier to have a clear conscience if you just re-explain the week away.:}
Now that is the definition of a nutjob.
So... I'll just putz along following God's ways... You can putz along not following God's ways... we will meet several times... in the end... one or both of us might be right.
May sound daft but..

Preventing RSI?
·
· Score: 3, Interesting
This may sound stupid... but recent studies are showing that most people that get RSI actually get most of the damage from sleeping on their hands at night.
So... #1 No hands under the pillow/head #2 No hands between the legs to keep them warm #3 If you ever have numb hands from cuddling your S.O. that's a no-no also
I changed my sleeping habits just that little bit and now no matter how much I abuse my wrists at work programming or playing Enemy Territory I have no more pain.
Cat 5 usually handles surges fairly well... If you do have a problem it usually blows the port that you are connected to on each end but not the actual unit... This is where cheap 24 port hubs come in;P
So are you trying to say that a bar or bowling establishment are not communal? What about World of Warcraft?

This is CmdrTaco's site... he is payed to maintain it but it is still HIS and he has designed it around a community that can sustain itself via moderation. Most of the people, in this community that has been created, realise that hundreds of thousands of people can't all be happy all the time and that the editors can in no way listen to every individual.
Here he is attempting to listen in just such a way and all you can do is bash him about it and not address real issues.
I would recommend just placing the nofollow on the attribution link.
The attribution link should be just about the person posting and of interest to slashdot readers that are curious. Pagerank/spider wise slashdot should not "help" since there is no relevance between anything on slashdot and their site (usually). If the editors where checking out their pages and they were also relevant to the discussion then it might be helpful to "boost them" but... that isn't the editors job.
For links in the actual story... that do add enough information that they are left by the editors then there is no reason to put nofollow since Slashdot should be adding credibility to the story.
We can do tests on 99% of the realm. Evolution has the problem that since we are looking at a VERY small section of it we have no way to control any expirements on it.
We already know that Carbon dating isn't the 100% that most scientists treat it as.
Which... Even with the puns is a fairly good series. And best of all... you can read until you want to stop:}
He's at almost 30 books in the series. Another hint is... The earlier the book the less the puns... "A Spell for Chameleon" has very few compared to "The Color of Her Panties" and such...
Used it on Windows 95/98SE machines... oddly enough it was my 10FPS laptop that it would play on. I had 2 desktops it would play the intro and then freeze because it went to save immediately. Then had 2 I could play the first 5 minutes and then it would lock up in the autosave. Never saw any correlation between OS and working/non-working but....
The released a patch to "fix" it but it didn't... I have a newer release they put out in the 10$ game category and it seems to be better on most machines but I still lost the save game on one.
This is why I am VERY much hoping that Black & White 2 purged that nonsense.
I hope upon hope though that they have fixed the game save issues they had with Black & White. Several computers I tried it on you never could save at all and the computer it would save on would often corrupt the save game after 3-4 worlds.
Black & White 1 rocked... but fighting crud like that made it get old fast.
Heck yeah... They fly! I wish everywhere was like Aldi's
They are trained well... and I have yet to see them keep an employee that slacked much.
Another thing they have going for them is that since they do all the packaging they use elongated barcodes and lots of them... makes it easier to scan by a LARGE amount.
Ok.... so take those 2 statements... add them together.
Yes I know that there are open wifi points that do cover outdoor areas... but if you are outside you have never been close to a phone anyways (unless you have a cellphone... in which case why are you using the VoIP one to call 911?)
Yes and no... The shuttle can take-off and reenter 100% computer controlled. However it can't land that way. The wonderful designers thought it was too dangerous to let the computer control the landing gear since they can't be retracted and accidental opening means death on reentry.
So... yes it can.. except some monkey has to be there to drop the landing gear.

You sir have provided a great .sig...
Thank you!
Every time I see a backhoe go by I go into an Elmer Fudd voice and say, "Be wery wery qwiet... I'm hunting fiber"
For some reason the Servers and Networks guys don't think it is funny.

Amaze your friends!
Yeah... I know this is slashdot so you didn't read the articles... but... it's there.

Puns are mostly contained in the Xanth series...

Wrinkle in Time... Wind in the Door... Many waters...
Quite good books that appeal heavily to both genders. Edges a bit more into the fantasy than Sci-Fi... but great stories all the same.
You must remember though... even a CD compared to an SA-CD is lossy... And yes I have been on stereo setups that you could tell the difference.
Remember... Nothing is as good as being there when they perform it, hence everything but direct audio is lossy.
It is safe to assume where he got it from because the article itself states that he was still having unprotected sex with his infected partner.
1.1 fixed most of the machines I we played on... we still had 2 machines that would get you to the 3 or 4th world and destroy the save game.
:P
Ohh well... hopefully we don't see a repeat

You must have trunc'd your database first.... cause I sure gave.
Also... count(*) is bad form... count(1) is more efficient in most SQL databases... ohh and the missing "'".
