No the article is indirectly implying that genocide = good. Because people weren't there. There's plenty of greenies that believe humanity is a blight, they're the atypical left-wing fringe of the environmental movement.
As a non-american looking in on america as well, I can disagree with your summation. Then again I can cross into america at the cost of driving 2hrs and know what the US is like, rather than what the media is telling me. And again I travel the world often enough to tell you that what the media isn't telling you about the supporters and number of fundie muslims is far larger than what's reported(because we can't hurt their feelings, they might bomb a studio).
The problem with that line of thinking is that you and I both know that christian fundamentalists don't make up anywhere close to a small minority. Yet in Islam the fundamentalist happy-go-lucky splody dopes make up around 15% with nearly 70% of the 'average' non fundie muslim.
Yeah there's some serious issues that they need to take care of, but pretending it's the actions of a few when the majority supports it, is burying your head in the sand and hoping it will go away.
You are also quite wrong. The reason why car tires are black is one, to increase traction of the tire in various ways. Two because of the amount of vulcanization chemicals used(like sulpher). Three to increase the heat bled, and fed into the tires in the summer/winter. And because they're made from vulcanized rubber(black), instead of plain rubber(white). White or black tires, both are an insulator to the vehicle. Which is why some people use grounding straps to stop from getting shocks. Old style tires(which are still made) come from non-vulcanized rubber and is soft, very, very soft. That's also the reason why winter tires are soft, less sulpher and other mixing agents, to give them better grip. Where in the summer a harder tire in the rain is just fine because you want it to cut to the road surface.
I actually did work back in the 80's as a kid at a company that still made pure rubber tires. Sheesh I was young then, I'm surprised anything stuck in my head.
I don't either. However I do remember Starcontrol 2 having a gigantic ass map that was colour coded and you had to use sector finding and input the name of the star. I think it took me all of 2-3 hours one afternoon to figure out a way around it.
I can understand switching away from Phillips, since those suckers strip pretty badly even in larger sizes, and strip like it's their job in smaller ones;
I can't. Phillips doesn't strip unless you're using the wrong head size which most people do. Really if they wanted to get away from the 'head-strip' issue, they would have gone to TORX, Torq or Allen. All three are used in the automotive and heavy machinery industry where the screws/flat bolts will be exposed to various types of environmental damage.
Besides you've never see screw head strip as badly as a plain old slot, or robertson.
Except BBS's weren't really one-node communication platforms. Most if not all BBS's had fido:NET, or something similar on a small scale that was regional. Unless you count hundreds of thousands of BBS's worldwide as small, and popular before usenet as limited.
I'd say the best place to find information pre-1996 would be in old fidonet archives. Which predated usenet, especially if your hub didn't carry usenet at the time(mostly a money factor for long distance calls). And we got around that problem by using multi-node jumps. Usually 1-2 cities, and paying out of pocket for 2 telephone lines+running a mininode to forward calls was cheaper than paying long distance.
In places like Canada and Germany, even public information can't be used like that otherwise it breaches the privacy act(s). While I realize this is aussieland and all that, they could violate the laws of other countries by doing what they're planning to do.
I agree with what you say on this. Personally I'm surprised he only got fined, in Canada if you do what he did and you're a cop it's one of a few choices depending on how bad it is. Demotion of on average of 4 ranks(down as far as 4th rank constable -- that's one step above a base recruit), no pay for 60 days, or fired.
I hope you're joking. They regularly state that the science is settled(along with flappy talking heads), and thus know all. Questioning the orthodoxy is against your best interest. Err..wait.
Yeah and when life was the most abundant on earth, it was between 4-7C warmer and the CO2 was in the 20 times as much as today. Reliable doesn't mean anyone makes sense still.
You're talking to people who have no idea what evidence is, or the chain of evidence. Or how it's used in law to build a case, this is pretty much normal, run of the day type of stuff.
Well there's an easy answer. File charges of murder(going by our lovely canuck version) against him, I think somewhere in neighborhood of 800-900 should do it.
Different bacteria, but it does eat oil as well breaking it down into other hydrocarbons which are eaten by other bacteria and all that. It's one of those funky things that have been going on there since the giant chunk of rock slammed into us and caused the last mass-extinction.
Well last I heard from several ISP's here in Canada. The major bandwidth hogs these days are people watching videos via youtube or other services. Which account for 50-58% of all traffic. The p2p bandwidth hog is yet another myth, but bell is fighting tooth and nail to stop from having to disclose this to the CRTC.
Really smart meters are just a giant scam. Living in Ontario, we've seen our power prices rise ~20% in the last year, and they're already talking about it tripling, and that's before the 'debt retirement charge' that everyone here pays for Ontario Hydro being such a huge fuckup.
I suppose it's possible. I mean we did loose the ability to make things like blue glass, green glass, and concrete at least one in the world. Losing schematics is also possible, I remember hearing a few years ago that some company was looking for a particular tube that RCA used to make, because RCA lost the diagram on how to manufacture the tube, whether or not it was ever true I have no idea. It was a passing fancy at the time for me, but even I have electronics that I use today that have tubes in them still.
Well my 3 year old board with 3 DDR slots could support 32gb of memory(8x3). My 2yr old board(GA-G41M-ES2L) which was on the cheap side supports DDR2 8GB(4x2). The board I'm looking at supports a max of 64GB(DDR3) in 4 slots. I really don't see this as anything huge, back in early 2000 when memory was expensive. Mobo's generally supported 2gb(when 256-512mb was the norm), and servers could support 64gb in 8 to 12 slots.
You really don't have anyone but yourself to blame for buying the cheapest motherboard on the market. ECS boards regularly fail on the capacitor front. The difference in price between a cheap ECS board and a 'nice' gigabyte or msi board is about $8.
No they understand it quite well. If you're not broadcasting what they want, you're a threat to the government. Even more so in dictatorial-monarchies and despot ridden hellholes. Can't let the peasants know life is better anywhere but there.
No it's not specific to AA. I've flown SW, KLM-Delta(and delta before the merger), JetBlue, AirTran all in the last 2 years and they've all done the same thing.
But if you want to experience unfriendly? Try air canada, they've managed to exceed in the "we're fucking you in the ass. AND YOU WILL LIKE IT!" method of dealing with people. No shock as to why they're losing business to WestJet.
Find a new retailer? Last year 1.5TB drives were selling for $169, this year they're selling for $89-99, and 1TB drives are selling for $49-79. 2TB drives are in the $99-135 range, and 3TB(with a SATA controller card) are going for around $200.
If you're canadian and paying more then that, you have no excuse for being took(see canadacomputers, newegg, or tigerdirect). If you're american, you're just dense and have far more choices than most. If you live anywhere else(except japan and s.korea), yeah I know. The markets suck.

I think they're more concerned that someone is going to get the shit.music domain before they do.
The whole 'user experience says one thing but we say another' is a pretty good way to kill your business. I mean it worked for AMC...very well infact.

Excessive law, is no law.
10 points if you can figure out who said it. Hint: He's been dead and in the ground for ~2000 years.
