    But they are using Linux... They can't become a monopoly, unless they find a very clever way to close Meego's source. Anyone could fork the proyect.

    Back in the '60... ok.. If this slasdhot post was 40 years old, then it would be acceptable to say that GNR are the wildest ear destroying band.
    Now, compare them with this swedish band (famous enough to have fans in south america).
    There are thousands of bands that make GNR seem a group of ladies.

    I think it's the most clever move they can do. Next year they'll phase out IE7, and companies will have to chose to pay yet again or switch to a free browser.

    The whole point of "atheism is another religion", is that they [most] believe there is no God, without any kind of evidence that falsifies God. If someones thinks God's nonexistance is true, certain and undoubtable, thent s/he "believes".

    India and tanzania. In the islamic world, christian specific persecution included the Armenian genodice, the Assyrian genocide and the almost extintion of the Chaldean Catholic Church; the massacre of mount Lebanon (but the zone is still christian), the persecution of christian arabs in Bethlehem, raids against the Copts in egypt, the quasi-civilwar in Nigeria; etc.

  14. Re:a game that tells the truth about religion on Religion in Video Games · · Score: 1

    The meaning of res publica (literally "public thing") was "politics". As far as I know Machiavelli (1513) used the term repubblica as opposed to principato because Italy was divided in thousands of micro-states, some of which worked in a similar fashion to the ancient greek cities; and the other ones had feudal rulers (Princes, Dukes, Counts, etc.) In Don Quixote (1605) the term "república" is used as a synonym of "state"

    "Republic" and "democracy" are not intrinsically synonyms. The italian and the argentinian constitutions (the only ones I have at home) both define their countries as "democratic republics". I suppose lawyers are not redundant, so there has to be a possible non-democratic republic.

  18. Re:With copyright, Christianity would have died... on Holy See Declares a "Unique Copyright" On the Pope · · Score: 1

    You say there were no translations before the reformation? Or that priests preached in latin? Extraordinary claims require at least ordinary evidence.

  19. Re:Legit use on Holy See Declares a "Unique Copyright" On the Pope · · Score: 1

    The Patriarch of Constantinople recognizes that the Pope is a lawful patriarch; sacraments and the mass and everything from one church is valid for the other. This self elected pope denies the existence of the roman church

    Actually it is a very good idea: evacuate Vostok and let the asteroid impact that zone. There would probably be no massive tsunamis or human deaths. But the heat of the impact and a possible magma effusion would create a giant lake.
