Except you haven't explained a bloody thing, except that you never really paid attention to propaganda that you are running around proclaiming.
.
it was done secretly in a country your at peace with to a person that was sleeping how is that a battle field.
.
I don't see you changing your point of view either dose that make you like Al Qadea.
.
I'm not completely anti America. I like your country and think its a better example of democracy than what we have here but that doesn't hide the atrocities being committed in the name of America (or in the name of Australia we are just smaller).
.
The only way your ever going to understand this is if America gets invaded and your hiding out scared for your life fighting for freedom.
Wouldn't you fight to the death if an invading force was coming to your home
.
Harry Truman saved a lot of American lives I'll give you that but i doubt millions would of died otherwise.
My argument has never changed. No one would want to be or should be killed in cold blood without at least a trial, and America is the biggest terrorist out there. You should just say i believe all American propaganda and never think to question it, then we can all nod and smile while the army heads off to invade some where else i mean install a democracy.
I know Osama would of preferred to be taken captive. Do you really think if you could pause time and ask him just before he got shot "do you want death now or capture" he would say "i don't want a trial where i can explain all the things your country have done to me and why i hate the US so much, just shoot me now". He wasn't going to just give himself up but that is hardly saying "i want to be shot in cold blood".
"Freedom and fear, justice and cruelty, have always been at war, and we know that God is not neutral between them." (because he is on our side)
"I believe all these things because freedom is not America's gift to the world, it is the Almighty God's gift to every man and woman in this world." (thus we must invade other countries to enforce it)
"America stands for liberty, for the pursuit of happiness and for the unalienable right for life. This right to life cannot be granted or denied by government because it does not come from government, it comes from the Creator of life." (we didn't kill osama god did)
"Faith gives the assurance that our lives and our history have a moral design." (doesn't matter who we kill god wanted them dead)
Really? Let’s change president for you, would you prefer to be shot in cold blood right where you stand or taken alive. I agree it’s a kangaroo court system once your on foreign soil but its better than being in a body bag, and at least you get to have your say. You have many more chances of escape, not to mention how much harder it would be to kidnap a person than it would be to just shoot them. It’s no wonder the military wanted Osama dead with no trial, because if he did go to trial (sure he would be found guilty) he would of exposed decades of dodgy CIA practices and the reasons he hates America so much. We have the Geneva Convention for a reason not just so we can claim the Nazis were super evil.
and yes i think america should stop killing people, especially in cold blood.
uhuh, So you won't mind when an enemy special ops force operates secretly inside the US and assassinates in cold blood your presidents because of the countless international deaths that they ordered.
All-righty. Mark of the beast i doubt it, computers operate with 0's and 1's. Anti-Christ i see no proof of that, i see some proof of Jesus being a robot but none of electronics being Satan. As for cold, Computers and machines are actually quite warm consider all the cooling fans on your computer. Soulless is arguable considering no one can define what one is. All that said this would only be another tool at our disposal to make life easier. As for the AC you replied to i can't figure out if we are heading towards the 'darkness' or inside.
2. With such a system in place, won't that eliminate incentive based human goals that leads to innovation? Are we sure that we want to hand over that role/power to a machine? That's an awful amount of trust to place in what amounts to a demigod. In effect, we are trusting it to decide our future and shape of civilization. Could be a good thing, could be bad.
I agree the trust issue would be hard to over come and it could defiantly be a bad system completely ignoring the needs of the few. But given a correctly programed demigod, incentive could be replaced with more of an honor type system if you have everything looked after for you (well cooked food, shelter, fast internet, entertainment, recreation, retirement) all you have left for life is your achievements. This doesn't solve all the problems of the less glamorous jobs (which more and more should be done by robots) that still need to be done, but if you give those people an excess of free time you could get some takers (some people just want to go fishing or watch TV). The super computer could be the ultimate accountant/treasurer/advisor.
The op has a great point. Given this deus ex machina capable of reading everybody's wants, needs and capabilitys it could solve a lot of problems. If the computer was great enough to correctly calculate the absolute best allocation of resources (humans, machine, mineral, land, water, space) its possible we could all live in a world where you get everything you ever wanted and work in your dream job. However i doubt we have that level of computer power yet, and there is no way to be sure there is an allocation that would make every one happy.
By networking 8 ps3's together (64 cell cores) you have enough processing power to model a black hole. A scientist was the one who pioneered the system as a replacement for expensive rent on super computer time. I would of given it a go but right about the time 2nd hand ps3 got cheap, Sony disabled the other os option.
That's if Mr spy with his recently printed Dr certificate doesn't do the examination, but what makes you so sure anything would happen if they were caught lying.
I did not have sexual relations with that woman.
We are invading Iraq because they have weapons of mass destruction.
Personally i think its perfectly likely that he evaded capture this long. I'm only surprised he didn't kill himself a while ago so the united states would spend an another trillion looking for him.
If the oh so open android bothered to support the Viewsonic gtab, Notion Ink Adam or the colour nook with honeycomb, then maybe it would have a chance. Cause you could get practically the same specs as the ipad2 at half the price (its only going to last a year or so I'm not paying to much for it), and you could do all the things ios wont let you. But Google is being a little apple bitch when it comes to releasing honeycomb to the public. Guess I just have to hope Ubuntu 11.04 will support my tablet.
Not that I'm an ifan by any measure but Steve Jobs defiantly isn't the most skilled, he dropped out of college after one semester, and he is the only person that would give himself a job. However he has done pretty damn good for him self. You have to wonder what other valuable intellects are hidden in the untapped resource of moderately skilled but fiercely creative. Just take one look at the projects they have going on in the Google workshop its all bars with a built in keg, or a tricycle and a cabinet (except one attempt at a 100 ft wingspan peddle powered plane, or the Google backed driver-less car). They are the most skilled in Google and have access to all kinds of materials and tools (they have a plasma cutter there) yet they are making things invented hundreds of years before them. Personally i would be working on a watch phone, VR, robots, and maybe a wing in ground effect boat.
How about releasing it before Christmas. In Nintendo's price bracket and target audience their customers aren't worried about cutting edge tech; they are worried about filling as many Christmas stocking on time as possible.

Or he could of just given them some oil that they were after.

Fair enough, I'm bad at grammar as it is, and i wrote that comment in rush before leaving work. I'll work on it for you.

that's a very informative post. Playing devils advocate when negotiating you always start high so you have something to work with.

so harry truman ordering the killing of 100 000 inocent japenese by dropping atomic bombs on them should of been assassinate and no one would of mind?
president obama (most of your presidents) brags about all the kills he has ordered.
and yes i think america should stop killing people, especially in cold blood.
uhuh, So you won't mind when an enemy special ops force operates secretly inside the US and assassinates in cold blood your presidents because of the countless international deaths that they ordered.
Will Osama get a gun in this game or are they going for the more realistic shoot him in cold blood no pow operation.

3. you need a doctors prescription/note for every bloody little thing that comes up.

I'm sure Google has already started their own.

Sorry I'm thinking of a different doctor. The article is quite truthful.
This isn't the truth I'm pretty sure he got in trouble for mentioning the evidence of fruit BATS (not fruit flies) giving fellatio.
