I don't think there's much hope of that considering the huge similarities with python and considerable disparity in library availability and popularity. I'm not sure there's much awareness of it outside the gaming development community.
And no, our military power couldn't stop an armed populace. The military wouldn't have a chance...unless they wanted to just kill everyone.
They don't have to. Applying the massive surveillance networks built with the purpose of "fighting terrorism" to the homeland the government can effectively destroy any glimpse of uprising or movement that tries to organize a rebellion.
The only way an uprising would work in USA would be if it happened spontaneously everywhere at the same time and if most personnel belonging to the armed/security forces joined in as well.
It's the old "Those who don't move, don't notice their chains"
Are you suggesting that is should be legal to make 30 round magazines at home?
Why not? Who and how is going to oversee what someone does inside their house? How are they going to prevent someone from designing their own bullets and printing them unless they're spying on their computers?
This is the best strategy, really. When you buy computers, make the sacrifice and it will pay in time. I'm using a computer from 2008 and it still feels almost new.
And I'm unfortunately living in a third world country where all this shit is expensive and hard to get (now more than ever).
I like Unity and never criticize change for the sake of change or UI decisions (unless they're really hurting productivity) but this trend of sharing by default (and maybe losing a lot of control by default) seems quite troubling coming from the most popular linux desktop distribution of the moment.
Well, that doesn't prove much other than people like to stick with what works.
Windows 7, IMO, was a vast improvement in terms of UI to XP but people still kept sticking to XP when given the choice. Why? unknown is scary. That said, from my small tests in VM, I can imagine much bigger problems with Win 8's metro interface when used in a desktop.
You realize that the "war on drugs" costs a lot more money, lives and federal resources than one of these shootings?
And if you want to prevent so many random shootings, it might be a good idea to change the constant worship of "problem solving by violence" that the country is used to.
mmm... you're probably talking about countries near centers of production (East Asia) right? Because in South America or Africa, I think you'd be hard pressed to find a cheap Hard Disk.
Huge bunchs of DVDs or low quality pen-drives are more common.
I might just be guessing but I think that an Israeli Arab or an Israeli atheist would not enjoy being called a Jew because he would probably associate it with the religion. Most used meanings are usually what count when talking about these things.
I'm not even sure if those talking about Jews around this whole thread tree are speaking about israelis in general. I'm pretty sure they aren't and, if they were, why not use the less ambiguous term, Israeli? Anyway, what about foreigners living in Israel for a long time? What about phrases using the country Israel (like OP did)?
What, exactly, are they talking about and why does criticism gets suddenly equated with exclusive criticism of Jews (whatever your definition)?
I have to say one thing about internet conversations. It's lovely that they usually start with a condescending (you don't know what you're talking about or, you're wrong and then they point out something easily googled and discussed in previous posts. Doesn't really make it easy to keep a friendly tone).
I'm well aware certain nations have an official religion but that doesn't mean that every time we say something about the country we're talking about the followers of that religion.
For example: "Argentina is corrupt and bureaucratic". If I follow your premise Argentina = Catholic (therefore) Catholics are corrupt and bureaucratic.
I wasn't trying to say that at all with my sentence. I meant that the Argentinian government functions in an extremely bureaucratic way and has a terribly track record regarding corruption.
And it wouldn't be the first time Liberia disappeared some foreign manufactured equipment to get it "off the books" only to come up with some derivative internal products later. In fact, they have concentrated on making major components [globes.co.il] for foreign purchased platforms for years, rather than building new platforms from scratch. Most of their tech is derivative work.
It seems just as likely, given Liberia's apparent lack of concern over these thefts, that they know exactly where these engines are.
"Most of everyone's tech is derivative. But somehow, it's only bad if the black people do it?"
"Rarely would someone say something like what the previous poster did without intending it as an insult against black people."
"And I find it interesting that you refuse a link between black people and Liberia, when Liberia was created specifically for the black people, and is officially a Black State" (This one is not really true but I hope it helps further prove my point that the linkage it's completely of your own doing. Not every Israeli is Jewish and not every Jew is Israeli.)

Nope. Democrat stands mainly for Delusion & Denial .
correct me if I'm wrong but the states of the game would be finite even if turns can go on forever.

To be fair, he didn't say he was a Syntax Nazi.
I know you're more than likely telling the truth but I struggle to believe it.
19 out of 20 people being unable to use a for loop and a couple of ifs (With modulus) seems frankly insane.
It seriously can't take you more than 5 minutes.

And being the most popular distro/brand it is the first to be officially targeted and supported. Think Steam.

Nothing. A politicians words are usually meaningless. Look at his actions.
Well, dude, Judicial process is not the same as due process... right? right?
It was unfit for the future, yes.
For support, kinda. But you can already deploy for android with necessitas.
Obama has to be one of the most apologized for presidents I've ever seen. Both before and after elections.

Experimentation, maybe? Trying out stuff, see what happens when you push the limits?
Failed analogy. You're not operating in any public space if you modify code in your computer.

Exercise, let's replace Israel with Liberia:
"Most of everyone's tech is derivative. But somehow, it's only bad if the black people do it?"
"Rarely would someone say something like what the previous poster did without intending it as an insult against black people."
"And I find it interesting that you refuse a link between black people and Liberia, when Liberia was created specifically for the black people, and is officially a Black State" (This one is not really true but I hope it helps further prove my point that the linkage it's completely of your own doing. Not every Israeli is Jewish and not every Jew is Israeli.)
My point is that
Israel != Jews.
USA != Christians.
Saudi Arabia != Muslims.
[Country] != [Majority Religion]
You mentioning religion out of the blue when the previous poster said nothing only serves as flamebait.
