They were ~$80($6.50+shipping and taxes on top) in Canada at one point. That left a very sour and bitter taste in my mouth, I have no want, need or desire to get one when they cost that much. I don't care that they're $6.50 now, if they want me to use one then they can give it to me with the next expansion. My cousin says they're still up over $20(somewhere around $25, aka $6.50+shipping+taxes), still don't care.
And if you live outside of any of those normal shipping zones you can still get them through 3rd parties. Or Ebay, at 400-4000% the markup.
I hated when the futurist culture died. I'm enjoy the ideas behind it but people right now aren't sure what direction it's going to take, most scifi is way way too far out. And there's very few writers who are looking at things on a shorter scale 10-50yrs.
Plutonium fears from breeder reactors and the green movement in the 60/70's with their irrational fear of "OMG NUCLAEAR!!!111"(yes I spelled that wrong on purpose). Accidents with things like the sodium reactor in Japan, and so on just give them more fearmongering tools. Instead of "we need to make sure this doesn't happen again, what went wrong and how do we make sure it doesn't happen again." That's why we're 30 years behind the times, and why the US has no functional breeders, and why you're just starting to use MOX again, and why you ship plutonium to Canada, Japan and S.Korea for us to make the fuel for our own reactors.
I realize that people are going to get pissy as I've now blamed the entire environmentalist green movement, reality is that's why there haven't been any new reactors built in the US. You need oh 100 easy, you needed 50 new ones to be under construction 20yrs ago. Even Japan and Canada have a projected timelines for new reactors into 2065 and where/when they'll be built to deal with electrical generation.
A religious person generally tries to adhere to the tenets of their religion for good living. The non-religious tries to adhere to the tenets of society. Religious dogma despite your belief in good or ill has shaped the cores of our modern legal and law system. These in turn have given both sides a basic foundation to create their own moral beliefs. Besides I don't think we've burned anyone at the stake in western society in a few hundred years. However there are some religions which haven't had reformations, which believe that stoning is a good way to do things.
In terms of morals religious person may turn to their God or whichever for absolution in their eyes, and their god. But they still know that they have to come to terms in both their own life, and whatever life after. As well as paying whatever debts society lays at their feet. A non-religious one has no one but themself, and society.
Most religious people I know, or have are better people then the average atheist that I've met or know. Because they believe that there is a higher order that will judge them based on their actions. It's people who pay lip service, or whatever else you'd like to call it that try to use religion as the scapegoat for their actions.
IANAETO. But ethical theology is something I do study as a hobby of mine, oh and with the regards to the actual article? I couldn't care. Have fun swearing/cursing/etc as part of a democratic society. Just remember who were pushing for this blasphemy law the most. It wasn't the religious, it was the politicians.
You mean like Chretien/Martin dismantling the oversight offices? Removing the powers of the AG office to investigate, shifting powers away from internal investigation units to secondary units which have no regulatory power. Giving more power to other regulatory agencies to stifle information and flow access. That's just the stuff off the top of my head.
And if you're going to argue points, next time don't use our most left-wing-anti-conservative media outlets as a source either. Try for something unbiased they're out there, and editorials don't really count in the frame of it either. Unless you're a hack.
Answer to A: Just run the tool Answer to B: Run the tool to ensure that old sectors and tables align properly, more has to do with imaging software actually not properly recording sector counts.
Our charter of rights and freedoms works fine. S.1 however states that the government can override any part of it for a 'just' cause. Seriously they need to stop teaching kids in highschool criminal and civil law and teach them government policy instead.
Oh you might have noticed that the website(s) aren't censored either. You've just happily flown off the handle for a well known hack-group that does this stuff. OTOH the Federal Government can get them shut down for use of a domain name/site that looks close to an official government one. That type of stuff isn't looked highly on by anyone, not even the courts here.
Just the obvious question since I live in Canada and have been involved in politics for 15 years, but..where were you when the Liberal party was in power and were actively censoring everyone and everything that could get them removed from office and interfering in official investigations at the federal level. Including shutting down agencies that do that investigation.
You really sound like another party hack that's upset that the liberal didn't get a 20yr majority. Too bad they were fucking the entire country over and using it for their own personal play thing.
The correct answer is Yes. And I'm a strong believer in laws and ethical codes. I just don't believe in unjust ones. The moment the government decides to allow, or force, or impose a tax on it's citizens for a media that spans all forms, where all people are paying. It means that the government condones the methods that were being used to get that information/data/whatever. That's the point where the government has decided that it's cheaper to tax everyone, so everyone has the right to download that same data.
This also follows through when those same people are taxed in order to 'stop' it, everyone knows that this money will go one of two places. Either the general revenue fund, or it'll go directly into a special fund for the media conglomerates so they can protect their dying business model.
That's only because it doesn't get super cold in the winter. Otherwise it would be Toronto. I always joke that while Toronto likes to think of itself as the center of the universe, it's the center of Canada with Vancouver being the wheel.
Most of the drive manufactures are releasing tools to align the drives to 4k clusters so they can be used under XP. WDC already has theirs out here: WDC Adv Format Plus instructions on all of their new 1TB and higher drives on how to set them up properly. You do have to jumper them, then format them specially but the drives work fine with 4k clusters. I put one in my work machine on Saturday, works flawlessly.
*I only used WDC because that's the brand I picked up recently. I do know other companies have similar tools and jumper settings on their newer drives as well.
I'm not going to cancel my vacation(s) but I am highly annoyed by this. It's going to cost us as a consumer more money, not that I'm made of it as it is. It's going to cut into my good samaritan ability as well. That is flying half way across Canada/US to drive people to Florida then pay out of pocket to get myself back. I usually book this stuff months in advance.
I sadly don't have a solution to this but it very well may get back to the point where taking a ship is less expensive. And I have travelled from Canada to Europe(France) by freighter before. It took awhile but it was dirt cheap. Oh and lets not forget the "helpful and smiling TSA guys" either, they simply piss me off to no end. Especially since I've changed my appearance I no longer have a heavy beard+long hair, but short hair and am clean shaved, thank goodness I have my security/PI license here which is a government issued document.
In the mood to give someone a severe beating over this. If someone wants to help...I'll take 4 others then the line forms up!
The reason why staph infections can be worse now then in the past is two fold. The first is because hospitals are pushed to be super-clean environments. This first part allows very hardy bacteria to thrive where they normally wouldn't. The second is when antibiotics are given, a lot of people don't take them to the full duration. This second part causes a lot of issues as people are building on top of the chain.
As well the prevelence of anti-bacterial hand washes/wipes/dish soaps/etc are highly damaging to a safe environment. If you goto a hospital or doctors office you won't find antibacterial washes, you'll find microbicide. Let me say this first, thanks a lot flapping heads(I mean sales guys) you're fuckin' us all.
Oh allergies? Yeah. Get yourself outside and eat some dirt. It does a body good.
Considering the case will probably held in Vancouver or somewhere in BC--the most liberal courts in Canada, I doubt it. There's only a few other places where it's just as. But chances are providing his lawyer is good he won't have any problems.
Or it could be that they're the "stay at home" mom who's got the kid while the guy's working. Of course if I could find a wife that works and is willing to let me stay home I'd be happy with that too. I've got no problems taking care of kids but I digress. So in your own small closed-minded part of life, I'm sure you'd say "ship the shits off to daycare." Of course that's just a terrible way to bond with ones parents.
Satire is protected, that's why you see things like RCM and This hour has 22min. Something most people forget in Canada is our libel/slander/defamation laws are broken into three groups. Those that cause actual harm/character assassination, those that cause danger to public order and everything else. This more or less falls into "everything else" of course it'll probably end up back at the Supreme Court with a new category coming out of it unless parliament comes around and writes a law about it. The chances of that happening are close to nil. Law of force(via courts) work just as well unless something really screws up.
You know, the ones who got all up in arms when Booosh!!! went berserk with "warrantless wiretaps"?
Oh I guess you can call me a libertarian. More like a conservative libertarian but whatever, but living in Canada I wrote off the US when you idiots elected Obama. You're fucked. He's Trudeau 2.0 and you couldn't even see it despite the saner heads of your northern neighbors. I'm just waiting for him to start flipping the public off and telling them: "they'll take what I give them and like it." to paraphrase Trudeau.
Sure. Model years 96-03. Anything newer you're screwed. Besides exhaust isn't electrics and engines. You can do a exhaust swap and not need to do any timing changes providing you modify your pipes.
AC shouldn't even be modded insightful. Despite the whining and complaining of people inside the US, you have some of the freest speech laws in the world. Both verbally and online, it swings back and forth depending on the country but the US has a good balance between the two. Look at your neighbors to the north, good freedom online but medium-fair verbal. Don't you dare even consider saying any form of derogatory remark about someone. "Thems hate speech"
Personally I'm in favor of "none" unless it's actually going to cause harm someone. Aka the old test of yelling fire in a crowded theatre. Then it should be dealt with on a one on one basis.

Um...does this post make me a sex toy nazi?
Nope...but watch out. Now you've got a legion of /. nerds who can't figure out if you're a guy or a girl. Your mailbox is going to be flooded.

Would have been better to use blood sucking lawyers.

I've been using these terms since 1992 for the most part, can I sue IBM now?
