screwed the figures up a bit the road crossing deaths or injuries were in the UK with a population of about 64million the drug deaths where in the US with a significantly larger population so drugs are even safer than crossing the road then I initially thought.
the figures show 5000 deaths or serious injuries to children in a year for crossing the road and a little over 4000 deaths or serious injuries caused by all illegal drugs.
but the un-natural ones don't always screw you up, just like the natural ones don't. I think you've been listening to too much propaganda..
Lets say I take your argument, why don't we ban sports especially the extreme ones because they can really screw you up to, and how about crossing the road, it's more dangerous than drugs.
Hmm... Quite a high proportion of the population in some countries is overwight due to addiction to food caused by those natural chemicals, and you do practically see them dropping dead because of their addiction. And that's more than just one individual.
well your pretty much arguing that I can come up with anything that you can't prove without any proof and say that there's a change that it exists. (like a flying spaghetti monster). I don't think people should be saying that things may exist when there purely cunjoured up in their imagination without any evidence, or using evidence that has been show to be something else.
true, but it can take years to properly know your way around linux and that's one hell of a learning curve (not to say it's not worth it but for your grandma!)
but they have studied how the brain works and it's deterministic, for wave function collapse refer to my earlier post about the universe being probabilistic and random but still based on it's inputs.
Science usually works by observation or thinking about something and then making a test to see if you can observe it.
all those observations are facts, they did really happen they are the truth. Even if we are in the matrix or just dreaming there's no way to get away from those observations, they must happen somewhere.
and all of those observations say that there's no place for free will, well at least not in anything anyone perceives.
I've been having this argument with my friend for a few months now. Free will is the ability to change the course of the universe through without that choice being the result of the inputs.
And just like God it doesn't exists. Everything we know about the brain shows that it's deterministic, the results of it's inputs and structure. everything that we know about the universe shows that it's probabilistic based on true randomness, based on it's inputs. There's no room for free will there either. It's not that there isn't any evidence for free will, it's that there's a large body of evidence against it. By saying that it's unscientific you are showing that you don't know what science is (the study of things that are true) you are saying it is not truth and therefore should be something left to fiction
A few year ago I had to write an application that linked up sales data to data from beer line flow monitors, all of the registers we had to operate with could provide sales information. Most often it was from a database that the till connected to, but sometimes it was directly from the till itself. To get good data (or any data) we usually had to contact the till manufacturers and ask them for details of how to access the data etc... they usually provided us with documentation we could work to, or sometimes there was some consultancy time where they showed us what to do as they didn't have any documentation.
I say contact a few till manufacturers and see what they can provide and what the costs are going to be.
most cholesterol is produced in you body and has little to do with what you eat e.g. some people can eat stake all day and be fine other can eat nothing but lattice and have a cholesterol problem.
Studies on eggs have show that they make no difference and infact a bit more exercise would help a world more than changing you diet.
You have to take into account how many light years away it is, for all I know it could be older than the earth it just looks younger. Maybe I can sell a new beauty product for women, all they have to do is move so many light years away that they actually look younger than they really are, I'm sure someone will buy it.
didn't apple 'use' bsd and KHTML? and probably some other stuff e.g. Intel CPU's and then add their vendor lock-in that they love so much and I hate so much.
but how many babies do they kill by shitting in other peoples gardens, and just think of the stress that causes. Owners may live longer but the other people who have to put with the cats are looking for an early grave.
but I am not aware of any instance where a government, once empowered, has relinquished those powers without force. Gandhi? of course you all know the reason they teach about Gandhi, it's to show you that there's another way except force that worked well once, so there's no need for you to get up in arms against the government if Gandhi didn't have to.
let me introduce you to Besonic, it used to be great and full of loads of really good artists, then they lost a HDD and probably lost most of the people they promoted over to myspace.
At least prozac worked for me, infact it worked too well and I've been take off of it and put onto something that doesn't work at all.
Sadly the doctors think my depression is because I smoke a couple of spliffs a week, it just shows how you can talk intimately to people and yet they never really know you, I was depressed long before I knew what a spliff was.
We're too used to getting shit on in the UK and now everyone's placid, when the smoking ban was introduced there was hardly any protest, but in iceland they openly flout the ban.

unless you're literally mentally ill, those natural chemicals aren't likely to ruin your life.
try telling that to a fat person with cancer and diabetes etc...

the universe isn't deterministic (due to quantum mechanics) it's probabilistic. But still fated.
there was lots of testing to make sure it worked just right!

Just like when I buy something in the shops that advertises on Sky I'm paying for Sky even though I don't watch it.
This has been happening for years.

it's not the children eating cat shit it's pregnant mothers getting it on their hands which is the problem
