I honestly never saw a need for anything past 2nd Edition.
I still have most every book from D&D (colored boxes with thin books) to AD&D 2nd Edition. I looked at the books for 3rd when it first came out and left the gaming store never to return.
I haven't played in years because it's hard to find people that actually understand 2nd Edition (let alone have the books). All I saw 3rd edition (and later revisions) as, was an answer to a question no one asked or wanted.
So, no-thank-you to 4th edition. You can polish crap all day and it still smells like crap...just shinier.
oh yea...OT: I have no question relevant to 4th Edition.
Isn't this what Camino is for? Like, the very reason for its existence?
yes, it is. When I first got my MAC, I didn't like Safari so I *tolerated* Firefox. After much complaining to a group of friends they suggested Camino, and I was instantly sold.
Sure, the releases are slow to hit market, but it's integration and functionality (not to mention it's clean look) out-weighs all else.
As a member of the US Air National Guard I don't like the devils raising the NetBSD flag in the likeness of World War II soldiers raising the Unites States flag over Iwo Jima.
Some Soldier you are! If you were better educated, you would know those "World War II Soldiers" were infact U.S. Marines.
err...your only a guardsman, sorry to hold you to higher standards;-)
I was going to moderate you as flambait, but I felt compelled to set you straight; as my Grandfather was *ON* that island.
Anyways, the previous logo was meant to convey the fact that NetBSD has "conquered" almost all hardware; nothing more. Don't be an idiot.
I have less than 3 days until the greedy beggars will be at my house and I haven't gotten candy, pumpkins, let alone carved the unbought pumpkins.
I *finally* find a constructive use for my dremel and you people have/.'d the site. IF I'm lucky, perhaps the patterns page will load by saturday and then I'll have a few hours to scramble and have a sorry excuse for a carved pumpkin on my doorstep./rant
Select the weapons of choice. I happen to like shotguns: you don't miss, and you'll think twice before you riddle your home with shot
Wanna know the greatest deterrant when you have a pump-action shotgun?
Cock the action just once, it's a very, very distinctive sound. EVERYONE knows what's on the business end of that *chink*chink* noise. Most burglars will take off after hearing that noise:-)
That action alone is a non-violent approach.
Personally thou, I'd rather have one hole in the wall from a pistol than many little holes from a scattergun (less patchwork).
What many people do not get is that this will help poor people. The way to help the poor is to create jobs not to just hand them money. This could provide a lot of opertunities for people. As far as the poor well it does not take a lot of money to get a computer that will work on the internet anymore. I bought an old K6-2 off ebay for $20 put linux on it...
You assume that the "poor" know about linux. They might, they might not...chances are, they do not.
You also assume that these same "poor", who don't have a computer already, will instantly know how to install linux.
It appears that you think Wi-Fi signals radiating a city will majicly create jobs??
It's nice to know that for $20 and about 4 Hours of your time you can game/email/surf porn. I'm happy for you, really.
> Terrorism as defined as killing civilians in order to influence government policies. Greenpeace does not do that.
So spiking trees, sabotaging trucks, running a RIB infront of a big ship causing it to ground...those are not acts of terror?
> However, the NRA has had members that have gone on "rampages" in the south in order to make a statement against the unlawful federal government.
really? I live in the south...Hell, I'm a member of the NRA... Where are these "rampages" you speak of? Did I miss the memo from HQ saying "go shoot someone who oposes us"? Not Hardly. It would seem to me that you are a treehugger trying to move the spotlight off of greenpeace.
> The NRA has members who have bombed buildings in the US.
This is turning into FUD. Perhaps you meant to say Greenpeace or ELF instead of NRA?
> The NRA suggests that gun use increase even though it has been proven that more guns is equal to more crime (while regulations on them reduces crimes).
So if the fact of having a gun causes a crime, then the fact of having a pencil causes misspelled words? Has it occured that the gun doesn't do the killing? It takes the will of a human to pull the trigger the excite the round, guns don't do that on thier own.
> If we go by the logic republicans are using, the NRA is worse, since their members are more extreme and target civilians.
again, I must have missed the memo to be extreme. Every member I know is far from extreme. I know lunatics with guns that are NOT members of the NRA that are hella extreme.
> (I can't count how many NRA members were happy that McVeigh targeted an Oklahoma city federal building after Clinton banned assault rifles.)
Nor can I. Know why? because NO member was happy that US citizens died. NO member was happy that some crazyass went and bombed innocents.
The NRA is one of a few organizations that are fighting to keep the second amendment alive. It's liberals and treehuggers that are trying to make it go away. I may not always agree with thier advertizing campaigns; but on the whole, I support what the NRA is doing to keep the freedoms that our forefathers gave us.
(wait, I feel a rant comming on...)
I think that to curb crime, the US needs to bring back PUBLIC EXECUTIONS. Every Wednesday night at 7pm, air them on EVERY network (ABC/CBS/NBC/FOX/UPN/WB/etc). Don't make a game show out of it, just show the hard, gruesome facts. Bring back hangings in the middle of town. If people can SEE what will happen to them if they fsck up hardcore, then perhaps they will think twice about doing it.
it's when something gets inbetween the DISH and the LNBF, this is where the signal is focused and most suseptibal; such as raindrops, that causes "rain fade".
to prevent this, you can either put the dish where this cannot happen, or buy a "dish cover".
The DNA registry catalogs DNA samples from all US armed forces, ostensibly for identifying remains (although if that were the only reason, the samples would be automatically destroyed at the end of the servicemember's contract.)
and even linked to a press release; had he actually read the press release he linked to he would have found:
Normally, the registry will retain DNA cards for 50 years, the same length of time military medical records are kept on file. Once you complete your full service obligation, you also can request destruction of your DNA record. The required form and instructions are available from:
Armed Forces Repository of Specimen Samples for the Identification of Remains 16050 Industrial Drive, Suite 100 Gaithersburg, MD 20877.
His comment is moot. But then again; anyone can link, not everyone can read.
that is not self-incrimination, and as MoralHazard wrote; the judge *will* order you to turn them over and if you dont, you *will* sit in jail until you do.

oooo!

you sir, are a gentleman in your own right.
These patterns, a larger-than-normal potato gun (converted to shoot those small pumpkins) and I'll be ready for those greedy little beggars

And many assume Linux will be "permitted" - which is a rather foolish assumption.

Just because something runs Linux doesn't mean it will be cheaper!

BAD MYTH!!
like any electronic; R&D, testing, plus marketing costs and all the other Corporate Buzzwords affect cost.
DON'T ASSUME IT WILL BE CHEAPER. (say this 3 times and commit to memory)
100mw != 1w. it's 0.10w. (fyi, incase you were asleep in RF101; 1000mw = 1w)
