Judging from the issues you're having, I'm guessing that you must be a house cat.
Either that or they're a fast typer. Last time I heard, when you start hitting 450wpm or so you start getting into the area where you're going faster than what the keyboard can keep up with(too many simultaneous keypresses). Most people switch to dvorak keyboards by the time they're at 250wpm, which allows them to go faster.
End of story. We should not be making any decisions based on faulty models, and all of the models in use can't even accurately predict the weather that's happened in the past, with verifiable data.
Feeling bitter that your hero has worse ratings than Bush or something? Well I understand. But you miss the numerous jokes that are made at his expense by people when he uses a teleprompter and fails miserably at it.
I agree. Much humor was had by all in each attempt. I'm sure he's had script monkeys carefully position the prompters for him, and when it fails the message will be beamed into his eyes.
Well I remember them supposed to have been dying after the birth of Amiga's(which died a screaming fiery death), and after the start of the console revolution(when they went mainstream), and that hasn't happened. And back ~5 years ago when 3 new consoles were launched.
I foresee the PC being around for a long time still. And probably forever, because there will always be some technology that will require an actual workhorse machine of some flavor.
Well duh. But I like socialized health care, believe its cheaper in the long run
Apparently you've never looked into the actual costs in the US of what it will cost. Or what it does cost in Canada, or what is costing in Europe and will continue to cost. Because if you did, you'd know it's not cheaper. It's much, much more expensive.
I don't fear death. I fear the pain of dying. I've been seriously injured several times, it's the pain that makes me fear it. Oddly enough my non-university graduate grandfather believed the same thing, he died quite painfully with cancer eating away his spine. He lived about 4 weeks from the time it was diagnosed to the time he died it progressed that quickly.
I'm honestly reminded of my mothers stories of the STASI, and their control, reading and unilateral attempt to control the life of everyone. Of how you couldn't trust people, or neighbors, or sometimes even friends, but information, art,books, music, everything still flourished underground, secreted, hidden, and away from the prying eyes of the state.
WHICH nation has an elected politician calling for the assasination of a foreign national?
Well that'd be Canada of course. Don't let our smiling faces deceive you, we have a long history of removing people who we consider a threat to national security and have no qualms about assassinating foreign nationals. Why do you think groups like JTF2, and SERC(previous) have existed? They all operate within the bounds of Canadian law, and Canadian law allows us to do some very broad things, especially to protect our national sovereignty.
Which nation is stopping its own citizens from reading websites?
Dunno? China? Because it's sure not the US.
Which nation is putting presure on private companies to follow its agenda without any laws being written?
That'd be governments everywhere. Governments do it everywhere, companies can follow or disregard it as they deem fit, or move to another country too. And they do.
Which nation is performing a massive denial of service attack to censor the net from information it finds undesirable?
Dunno, you tell me. But if you think it's the US you'll be sadly mistaken.
Then again, I think you just have a hate for all things American. Either that or you're a conspiracy theorist, I'm thinking conspiracy theorist however. Personally I'm surprised your post got to +5 full of such nonsense.
Okay. How do you stop stupid children or people who run behind cars while people are backing up? Well fuck. I'm sure this would be interesting in you know in Canada. Because they'd be illegal in every province to have, unless they fall under very strict guidelines.
Yeah better let Canada, Japan and S.Korea know. Because we use both 'dangerous' fuel in our reactors, and use use breeder reactors for other things. In fact in Canada we still use breeder reactors to make ~90% of the worlds nuclear isotopes, including those for nuclear medicine.
True. Except China is where the world is currently doing business. Plus sending it to the middle of nowhere Africa, doesn't make any sense right now(except for a few companies). But the next industrialization push will be Africa, once China gets too expensive in 10-20yrs. That is providing we haven't suffered massive currency collapse, and currency devaluation by then.
I'm sure then they can adequately explain why there's an overabundance of heat island station readings, while scrubbing any and all non-island readings, or 'country' readings.
But when you do science like that it sure makes for some pretty scary stuff. Wow look, you've just managed to raise the temperature by 3-6C
Rule one in science: Anyone that tells you that the science is settled is lying. Rule two in science: Anyone that tells you that there's a consensus, and it's accurate is out for money.
Canada records assault, rape and murder in stats different than the US. One reason why our non-murder rates are higher. In the US, punching someone in the face with your fist is generally a misdemeanor. In Canada it's assault(lvl1 or higher depending on the circumstances) and a criminal charge(the same as a felony), but you can end up with a reduced sentence based on your previous record(or lack thereof).
According to the way crime stats are recorded in the US, a misdemeanor for assault isn't an actual crime. However in Canada it is.
Maybe you should learn how crime stats are recorded differently world-wide, before looking like an ass.
Kinda moot really. I'm not sure you could get the widespread adaption to use 240.0.0.0/4 anyway, not even counting patches, testing, more testing. Really what it boils down to, is a gigantic clusterfuck of epic proportions where ISP's and backbone providers have been told for the last 10 years "We're running out, switch." and they've replied with a "meh, whatever."
Really? Have reparations for violations of treaties with the Native nations gone through while I wasn't looking?
The act dealing with natives died the moment the US went it's own way from Britain. The 'United States' were under no obligation or requirement to uphold any treaties. Really if the natives have a bone to pick, they should be going after Britain.
See in Canada, when we became our own country the act was still in effect as such; it's Canada problems in dealing with them, within our own sovereign borders.
I suppose it doesn't need to be said or does it? Welcome to how the world works. Treaties and documents die when new nations are formed, or split from their parent.
Also, you should learn some history on the confederacy. You'd be less ignorant then.

Models are garbage, even hindcasted.

Back to your koolaid.

No. It's Obama's attempt to prove he can read without a teleprompter however.
And when you go to 'socialized medicine' you'll be paying even more, around 50%. Damn skippy, good fiscal planning.

How long before they start to censor sites with political views not approved by the government
Already been done, it was called the fairness doctrine.

Excellent idea. We should also ban people, that should solve the stupidity problem right up and out.

Lies. We get into the pie first. Then it's the punching. Especially if someone brought molson.

Most routers and so on that I see use 10.0.0.0/255 or 169.0.0.0/255, I actually haven't seen a router use 240.0.0.0/4 since the mid 90's.
If you think that was a personal level, don't worry about delusions.
